Abstract:
The present invention is directed toward the early detection of harmful algal blooms. The system employs the ability of whole cell non-contact micro Raman spectroscopy to detect cell pigmentation in such a way that distinct patterns or fingerprints can be assembled. Light field microscopy will provide a fundamentally innovative increase in image and sample volume. Furthermore, darkfield microscopy is employed to capture high-resolution, color images of the detected plankton to increase the accuracy of species identification and classification. Together, this new instrument will provide a powerful yet elegantly simple solution to detection of HAB cells and characterization of environmental conditions.

Claim (Index 1):
A portable detection device for detecting and quantifying a target of interest, comprising:\n a high-resolution optical system comprising a Raman spectroscopic assembly, disposed in a housing; a lens with an image face and a defined focal length; a target space, capable of accommodating a target to be detected; and a power source, operably connected to said optical system; wherein the Raman spectroscopic assembly receives light information from a target to provide a spectrum associated with the target, said spectrum is analyzed for defined Raman peaks, the target space is open for free flow, and the device is capable of operating in an aquatic environment.
