Abstract
A method and system are provided for measuring post-translational modification of proteins in a subject. The method comprises recording of infrared radiation within a predetermined wavenumber range and attenuated by an integument of the subject, such that the integument is still attached to the subject. The method further comprises the step of comparing the attenuation of infrared radiation to a predetermined value for deriving information regarding post-translational modification of proteins in the integument.
