The infrared spectra of a number of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids in the 350–50 cm−1 range are reported and several consistencies in band frequencies noted. An attempt to assign the low frequency vibrational modes of some of the simpler acids has been made based on infrared and Raman intensities. It is concluded that these molecules consist of relatively strongly coupled dimer molecules in the pure liquid and that the spectra reflect this dimer structure.

Osteoporosis afflicts about 200 million people worldwide; and osteoporotic fractures are in the millions annually in the US alone and cost tens of billions of dollars [1]. Characterization of bone quality in osteoporotic patients is important with respect to monitoring treatment efficacy, though currently quite limited. While some technical hurdles in developing a noninvasive diagnostic tool using low frequency vibration have been overcome, changes in the frequency response signal of bone have not been investigated at the various bone organizational levels. Our principal hypothesis is that the vibrational modes of bone tissue change significantly with the deterioration of bone micro-architecture and that these modes can be captured by noninvasive sensors.
