1. A spectroscopic analysis apparatus for non-invasive in vivo analysis of blood comprising:

  • an excitation system for emitting an excitation beam to excite a target region containing blood, a detection system for detecting scattered radiation from the target region generated by the excitation beam to obtain a Raman signal, a signal processing system for extracting at least one predetermined pH sensitive signal portion from said Raman signal and for determining the pH value of the blood in the target region from said at least one pH sensitive signal portion by use of a relationship between pH value and one or more band parameters of pH sensitive vibrations of at least one molecule or part of a molecule present in blood.
