Abstract
There is an expanding field of research investigating the instrumental methods to measure the development of affective disorders. The goal of the commentary is to turn the attention of medical practitioners at the molecular spectroscopy techniques (FTIR, Raman and UV-Vis) that can be applied for monitoring and quantification of the phospholipid-protein balance in human blood serum of depressed patients. Even facial overview of cited original research strongly suggests that disturbed phospholipid-protein balance could be one of the biomarkers of affective disorders. The blood serum monitoring of depressed patients would serve as a tool for more effective holistic therapy.

Abstract
In-line determination of the enantiomeric ratio is still a challenge in process analytical technology (PAT). This study combines enantioselective Raman (esR) spectroscopy with partial least-squares regression (PLSR) to determine the enantiomeric fraction of the chiral molecule (5,6)-diphenyl-morpholin-2-one diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a proof-of-concept. Morpholinone derivates are potential candidates for pharmaceutical applications. The PLS weights were carefully analyzed in order to avoid misleading regression results, e.g. caused by sample impurities. A suitable PLSR model was found with two components and it was validated by a leave-one-out cross-validation. The enantiomeric fraction ef(+) could be calculated with deviations from the prepared ef(+) in the range of -0.031 and +0.052 from the esR spectra recorded at a half-wave retarder angle of 30.0°.

Abstract
Enantioselective Raman (esR) spectroscopy is an innovative technique with a high potential for online process monitoring in chiral media, e.g. in the pharmaceutical industry. A prerequisite for an effective application is to combine the experimental approach with suitable concepts for data analysis. In this work, we present a chemometric approach to analyze the esR spectra recorded in an automatized polarization-resolved Raman set-up. It is demonstrated that the proposed method is capable of distinguishing between the enantiomers of the chiral alcohol 4-methylpentan-2-ol in a fully unsupervised fashion. Furthermore, it is shown that the difficulty of facing only small intensity differences between the esR spectra of the enantiomers can be overcome by feeding difference spectra between the pure enantiomers and the racemate into the principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm. The enantiomers are clearly discriminable along the first principal component.

Abstract
The first experimental application of enantioselective Raman spectroscopy (esR) is demonstrated using the example of the chiral alcohol 2-butanol. Samples of the neat enantiomers and the racemic mixture were analyzed in a self-built Raman set-up. The Raman spectrum allows the discrimination of the chemical species. It is shown that the optical rotation of a Raman peak with a small depolarization ratio can be measured. In addition, without any sample modification, e.g. chiral solvent, the enantiomers are distinguishable at a suitable half-wave retarder angle detecting only the vertically polarized component of the Raman signal.

Abstract
The poly(l-proline) II (PPII) helix is considered to be a major conformation in disordered polypeptides and unfolded proteins in aqueous solution. The PPII conformation can be identified by using Raman optical activity (ROA), which measures the different intensities of right- and left-circularly polarized Raman scattered light from chiral molecules and provides information on stereochemistry associated with vibrational motions. In the present study, we used tetra-alanine (Ala4) as a model system, since its central amide bond adopts the PPII conformation. The predominance of the PPII conformation was supported by 11 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at 300 K. The MD snapshots were used for subsequent quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) calculations to compute the Raman and ROA spectra. The present MD + QM/MM analysis leads to a good agreement between the observed and simulated spectra, allowing us to assign most of the spectral features including the ROA band near 1320 cm-1, which has been used as a marker for the PPII conformation. This positive ROA band has three components. The lower frequency component near 1310 cm-1 arises from an internal peptide bond, whereas the higher frequency components around 1320-1335 cm-1 appear due to N- and C-terminal peptide groups. The MD + QM/MM calculations also reproduced the electronic circular dichroism spectra of Ala4. The present results provide a satisfactory framework for future investigations of unfolded/disordered proteins as well as peptides in solutions by chiral spectroscopic methods.

Abstract
Besides its applications in bioenergy and biosynthesis, β-d-xylose is a very simple monosaccharide that exhibits relatively high rigidity. As such, it provides the best basis to study the impact of different solvation shell radii on the computation of its Raman optical activity (ROA) spectrum. Indeed, this chiroptical spectroscopic technique provides exquisite sensitivity to stereochemistry, and benefits much from theoretical support for interpretation. Our simulation approach combines density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) in order to efficiently account for the crucial hydration effects in the simulation of carbohydrates and their spectroscopic response predictions. Excellent agreement between the simulated spectrum and the experiment was obtained with a solvation radius of 10 Å. Vibrational bands have been resolved from the computed ROA data, and compared with previous results on different monosaccharides in order to identify specific structure-spectrum relationships and to investigate the effect of the solvation environment on the conformational dynamics of small sugars. From the comparison with ROA analytical results, a shortcoming of the classical force field used for the MD simulations has been identified and overcome, again highlighting the complementary role of experiment and theory in the structural characterisation of complex biomolecules. Indeed, due to unphysical puckering, a spurious ring conformation initially led to erroneous conformer ratios, which are used as weights for the averaging of the spectral average, and only by removing this contribution was near perfect comparison between theory and experiment achieved.
