Automatically digital extracellular vesicles analyzer for size‐dependent subpopulation analysis in surface plasmon resonance microscopy

Transmission surface plasmon resonance microscopy

Advances in surface plasmon resonance biosensor analysis.

The number and diversity of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor applications continue to increase. Evolutions in instrument and sensor chip technology, experimental methodology, and data analysis are making it possible to examine a wider variety of biomolecular interactions in greater mechanistic detail. SPR biosensors are poised to make a significant impact in basic research and pharmace...

Multiphoton plasmon-resonance microscopy.

A novel method for detection of noble-metal nanoparticles by their nonlinear optical properties is presented and applied for specific labeling of cellular organelles. When illuminated by laser light in resonance with their plasmon frequency these nanoparticles generate an enhanced multiphoton signal. This enhanced signal is measured to obtain a depth-resolved image in a laser scanning microscop...

Dual-Wavelength Surface Plasmon Resonance for Determining the Size and Concentration of Sub-Populations of Extracellular Vesicles.

Accurate concentration determination of subpopulations of extracellular vesicles (EVs), such as exosomes, is of importance both in the context of understanding their fundamental biological role and of potentially using them as disease biomarkers. In principle, this can be achieved by measuring the rate of diffusion-limited mass uptake to a sensor surface modified with a receptor designed to onl...

Fabrication and Characterization of the Fiber Optical Taper for a Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor

For a fiber optical surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor a short part of its cladding should be removed to coat a thin layer of a metal. Usually this is problematic when an optical fiber with small core diameter is used. In this paper, a new method using µliter droplet of the HF acid for short fiber optical taper fabrication is reported. Using this method in a multi-mode optical fiber w...
