Probing the low-frequency vibrational modes of viruses with Raman scattering--bacteriophage M13 in waterKong T Tsen
Arizona State University, Department of Physics, Tempe, Arizona 85287 1504, USA
J Biomed Opt 12:024009. 2007..It is expected that the detection and characterization of this low-frequency vibrational mode can be used for applications in biomedical nanotechnology such as for monitoring the process of virus functionalization and self-assembly...
Inactivation of viruses by laser-driven coherent excitations via impulsive stimulated Raman scattering processKong Thon Tsen
Arizona State University, Department of Physics, Tempe, Arizona 85287, USA
J Biomed Opt 12:064030. 2007..These experimental findings suggest a novel avenue of selectively inactivating microorganisms while leaving the sensitive materials unharmed by manipulating and controlling with femtosecond laser systems...
Photonic approach to the selective inactivation of viruses with a near-infrared subpicosecond fiber laserKong Thon Tsen
Arizona State University, Department of Physics, P O Box 871504, Tempe, Arizona 85287, USA
J Biomed Opt 14:064042. 2009..Our photonic approach could be used for the disinfection of viral pathogens in blood products and for the treatment of blood-borne viral diseases in the clinic...
Studies of inactivation of encephalomyocarditis virus, M13 bacteriophage, and Salmonella typhimurium by using a visible femtosecond laser: insight into the possible inactivation mechanismsKong T Tsen
Arizona State University, Department of Physics, Tempe, Arizona 85287, USA
J Biomed Opt 16:078003. 2011..In contrast, inactivation of bacteria is related to the damage of their DNAs due to irradiation of a visible femtosecond laser. Possible mechanisms for the inactivation of viruses and bacteria are discussed...

Department of Physics and Astronomy, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85287 1504, USA
Virol J 3:79. 2006..For example, rod-shaped viruses such as the M13 phage and tobacco mosaic virus have been successfully used as biological templates for the synthesis of semiconductor and metallic nanowires...
Inactivation of viruses by coherent excitations with a low power visible femtosecond laserK T Tsen
Department of Physics, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85287, USA
Virol J 4:50. 2007..We demonstrate for the first time that, by using a visible femtosecond laser, it is effective to inactivate viruses such as bacteriophage M13 through impulsive stimulated Raman scattering...
