Abstract
A sample comprising a first substance and a second substance is modified by breaking down molecular bonds of the second substance of the sample to form a modified sample having altered surface enhanced luminescence (SEL) characteristics to reduce overlapping of SEL characteristics of the first substance in the second substance. Surface enhanced luminescence data resulting from excitation of the modified sample is collected. Characteristics of the first substance based upon the collected surface enhanced luminescence data are identified.
