چکیده
Brighter SERRS nanotags ideal for improved SERRS imaging were prepared by the controlled addition of electrolyte producing a dimer enriched solution, which was incubated with a Raman reporter before being stabilised by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) shell.

Controlled side-by-side assembly of gold nanorods and dye molecules into polymer-wrapped SERRS-active clusters.
The controlled side-by-side assembly of gold nanorods in solution together with Raman reporter dye molecules to create small SERRS-active clusters stabilised by a surrounding polymer layer is demonstrated. This promising new class of nanotags offers several advantages over spherical nanoparticles for bioimaging and is of potential importance for a wide range of plasmon-enhanced spectroscopies a...
متن کاملDevelopment of Hybrid Silver-Coated Gold Nanostars for Nonaggregated Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering
In the ongoing search for ever-brighter surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobes, gold nanostars (AuNSs) have emerged as one of the best geometries for producing SERS in a nonaggregated state. Despite their high enhancement factor, optical extinction from plasmon-matched nanoparticles can greatly attenuate the overall SERS intensity. Herein, we report the development of a new hybrid ...
متن کاملFabrication of biosensor arrays by DPN and multiple target detection by triple wavelength fast SERRS mapping
We have used Dip-Pen Nanolithography (DPN) to create biosensor arrays on microand nano-structured surfaces. Bespoke linker and labelling materials enables detection of biological molecules by surface enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS). Careful DPN-directed placement of the biological species or capture chemistry, within the array, facilitates rapid read out via ultra fast Raman line ma...
متن کاملActively Targeted In Vivo Multiplex Detection of Intrinsic Cancer Biomarkers Using Biocompatible SERS Nanotags
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique is becoming highly popular for multiplex biosensing due to the 'fingerprint' Raman spectra from every molecule. As a proof-of-concept, we demonstrated the actively targeted multiplex in vitro and in vivo detection of three intrinsic cancer biomarkers - EGFR, CD44 and TGFβRII in a breast cancer model using three multiplexing capable, biocompatib...
متن کاملAu nanowire-on-film SERRS sensor for ultrasensitive Hg2+ detection.
We report an ultrasensitive and selective single nanowire-on-film (SNOF) surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) sensor for Hg(2+) detection based on structure-switching double stranded DNAs (dsDNAs). Binding of Hg(2+) induces conformational changes of the dsDNAs and let a Raman reporter get close to the SNOF structure, thereby turning on SERRS signal. The well-defined SNOF structur...
