Lashkaryov Institute of Semiconductor Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine 1.0≤Among the methods for optical diagnostics of biological layers, the most widely spread are those of laser polarimetric diagnostics aimed at optical-anisotropic structure inherent to human tissues [1 - 31]. The main “information product” of these methods is obtaining the coordinate distributions for elements of Mueller and Jones matrixes corresponding to biological tissues (BT) [1 - 5] with the following statistical (statistical moments of the first to fourth orders [5, 6, 10, 14, 19, 25, 26, 30]), correlation (auto- and mutual-correlation functions [12, 17, 18, 21, 26]), fractal (fractal dimensionalities [5, 6, 25]), singular (distributions of amounts of linear and circularly polarized states), wavelet (sets of wavelet coefficients for various scales of biological crystals [22, 28]) analyses. As a result, one can determine interrelations between a set of these parameters and distributions of optical axis directions as well as the birefringence value inherent to networks of optically single-axis protein (myosin, collagen, elastin, etc.) fibrils in optically-anisotropic component of BT layer. Being based on this approach, a large amount of methods for diagnostics and differentiation of pathological changes in BT structure that are related with their degenerative- dystrophic as well as oncological changes [4 - 6, 12, 19, 20-22, 27, 29, 31]. It should be noted that there is a widely spread group of optically anisotropic biological objects, for which the methods of laser polarimetric diagnostics did not acquire wide application yet. Related to these objects are optically-thin (extinction coefficientτ ) layers of various biological liquids (bile, urine, liquor, synovial liquid, blood plasma, saliva, etc.). These objects are considerably more accessible for direct laboratory analyses as compared with traumatic methods of BT biopsy. Being based on these reasons, it seems topical to adapt the methods of laser polarimetric diagnostics for studying the optically-anisotropic structure of BT polycrystalline networks. Our work is aimed at searching the possibilities for diagnostics and classification of optical properties of human biological liquids with various spatial symmetry of polycrystalline networks. With this purpose, we offer to determine coordinate distributions corresponding to Jones-matrix elements with the following statistical, correlation and fractal analyses of these distributions. 2. Main analytical relations Our analysis of experimental results is based on the following conceptions developed for optically anisotropic protein fibrils [1 - 4, 7, 9, 14, 16, 23-27, 30]: • separate (partial) amino acid crystals are optically uniaxial and birefringent; • optical properties of a partial crystal are exhaustively full described with the Jones operator [5] 403 Semiconductor Physics, Quantum Electronics & Optoelectronics, 2011.

Therefore, to consider the structure of generalized Jones matrix { }ℵ in more convenient manner, we limit ourselves (without losses in fullness of analysis) by the case of bilayer ( ) polycrystalline network. With account of this approximation as well as an evident look of dependences (relation (1)) for matrix elements 2=Q ( δ)ρ,ikJ , it is possible to show that the elements of generalized Jones matrix can be expressed with the following dependences ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) .2exp exp δ−ρ+ +δ−ρ+ρ=ℵ iU iTR ik ikikik (4) Here, are the coefficients expressed via quasi-harmonic functionals ( ) from coordinate changes in orientations of optical axis ikikik UTR ;; sin"cos";"sin";"cos~" 22 − ( )yx,ρ Our comparative analysis of relations (1), (2) and (3)–(7) has shown that the coordinate distributions of ikℵ elements in Jones matrixes describing multi-layer polycrystalline networks of optically birefringent crystals simultaneously possess various properties: { } ( ) ( )[ ] ( )[ ] ( );expcossin;exp1sincos ;exp1sincos;expsincos 22 22 2221 1211 δ−ρ+ρδ−−ρρ δ−−ρρδ−ρ+ρ == ii ii JJ JJ J .

Brief characterization of the studied objects As the studied objects, we used smears of biological liquids taken from healthy patients: • saliva (21 samples) – group 1; • blood plasma (21 samples) – group 2; • bile (21 samples) – group 3. This choice of biological liquids was related with the following factors: • they comprise a wide circle of physiological functions in a human organism; • diverse biochemical structure of these liquids, as well as others no less important from the physiological viewpoint (transudate, exudate, ………., liquor, ….), possesses common optical properties that are related with birefringent liquid- crystalline networks of amino acids, calcium bilirubinate, fat acids, cholesterol monohydrate, etc. Fig. 1 shows polarization-visualized images of polycrystalline networks inherent to birefringent biological crystals of the liquid samples in all the groups. These images were obtained for crossed transmission planes of the polarizer and analyzer. The comparative analysis of laser images corresponding to smears of human liquids enabled us to ascertain: • availability of optically-anisotropic polycrystalline networks inherent to biological crystals in all the groups of liquids; • dependence of optical anisotropy parameters (distribution of orientation directions for biological crystals and the value of their birefringence) on the type of liquid (Fig. 1, fragments a, b, c); • in the geometrical structure of polycrystalline networks typical for saliva (a) and blood plasma (b), there predominant are needle-like or dendrite- like structures, while for bile (c) – spherolitic creations.

The analysis of laser images was performed using the polarizer 9 and quarter-wave plate 8. Conditions of our experiments were chosen in such a manner that enabled to practically eliminate spatial- angle aperture filtration when forming the images of biological liquids.
