Abstract
Current diagnosis of pediatric eosinophilic esophagitis relies heavily on anesthesia and random biopsies during initial diagnosis and treatment monitoring. Investigation of patient’s saliva biochemical and biomolecular composition, and the potential biomarkers within, via surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy can provide key markers for distinguishing the EoE disease from non-EoE, including acid reflux disease. This optical modality coupled with paper-fluidic platform has the potential to provide a rapid diagnostic tool for non-invasive detection of EoE.
