Label-free bioaffinity detection using terahertz technology.
We report the first use of differential terahertz time-domain spectroscopy for bioaffinity sensing. Binding is observed by measuring the transmission of a thin layer of biotin bound to the sensor protein avidin. We demonstrate the THz wave transmission of a sub-micron-thick film and sensitivity to 0.1 microg cm(-2) of biotin. These results point the way for a host of biosensor applications usin...
متن کاملLabel-free amplified bioaffinity detection using terahertz wave technology.
A new affinity biosensor based on pulsed terahertz (THz) wave technology has been used to monitor binding between biotin and avidin molecules. Amplified detection of avidin-biotin binding is obtained on supported membranes composed of biotin layers on quartz surface, which is modified with octadecanol. Agarose particles are conjugated with avidin and then applied to biotin, which is already bou...
متن کاملDesigning a Label Free Aptasensor for Detection of Methamphetamine
A label-free electrochemical nucleic acid aptasensor for the detection of methamphetamine (MA) by the immobilization of thiolated self-assembled DNA sequences on a gold nanoparticles-chitosan modified electrode is constructed. When MA was complexed specifically to the aptamer, the configuration of the nucleic acid aptamer switched to a locked structure and the interface of the biosensor changed...
متن کاملLabel-free detection of proteins from dried-suspended droplets using surface enhanced Raman scattering.
A simple sample preparation method to obtain rich and reproducible surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra from proteins regardless of their surface properties and dimensions for label-free detection and identification is reported. The method uses colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as substrates and is based on suspending the droplet of a mixture containing AgNPs and proteins from ...
متن کاملTapered Optical Fiber Sensor for Label-Free Detection of Biomolecules
This paper presents a fast, highly sensitive and low-cost tapered optical fiber biosensor that enables the label-free detection of biomolecules. The sensor takes advantage of the interference effect between the fiber's first two propagation modes along the taper waist region. The biomolecules bonded on the taper surface were determined by demodulating the transmission spectrum phase shift. Beca...
