Adaptive silver films for detection of antibody-antigen binding

Antibody-antigen binding events at a monolayer protein concentration have been demonstrated on nanostructured adaptive silver films (ASFs) using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and luminescence-based assays. It is shown that proteins stabilize and restructure the ASF to increase the SERS signal while preserving antigen-binding activity. Evidence for antibody-antigen binding on the ASF substrates is the distinct SERS spectral changes of the surface-bound antibody or antigen without special tags. The activity of the surface-bound proteins and their practical application are validated by independent immunochemical assays. Results are presented to demonstrate that these surfaces can be extended to protein arrays with detection applications distinct from current SERS, fluorescence, or luminescence methods.     

Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering of Rhodamine 123 in Silver Hydrosols and in Langmuir-Blodgett Films on Silver Islands

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) of the Rhodamine 123 (Rh 123) molecule on ion-induced silver colloids has been studied. A time-dependent study of the SER spectra at a particular pH confirms charge transfer interaction between the probe molecule and the metal. The SER spectra of Rh 123 in Ag sol is compared with that of the molecules organized in a monolayer on silver island films by the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique. The origin of high SERS activity of Rh 123 molecules in a monolayer on a silver island film is shown to be due to physisorption whereas in the ion-induced colloidal SERS both physisorption and chemisorption machanisms are involved. From these results, the contribution of charge transfer interaction to SERS in Ag sol has been estimated. In monolayer SERS, all the in-plane and out-of-plane (of xanthene ring) modes are more or less equally enhanced. This indicates that the xanthene plane of Rh 123 molecule organized in a LB film is oriented neither flat nor perpendicular to the silver island surface but is tilted.

Role of O2 in inducing intensive fluctuations of surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectra

Confocal Raman microscopic measurements were performed on silver electrodes covered with hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H). When short accumulation time was used, the subsequently measured surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra exhibited fluctuations. As previously reported for other systems, the intensity of fluctuations of SERS spectra significantly decreases if O2 was removed from the ambient medium. In this contribution we show that intensive SERS fluctuations can be also observed for a-C:H/Ag samples immersed in the deoxygenated electrolyte after applying a negative potential pulse to the silver electrode. It means that the O2-mediated Burstein mechanism of SERS fluctuations, which has been previously proposed to explain the SERS O2 effect, is not adequate for these results. We suggest that oxygen chemisorbed on the silver surface decreases the average strength of the interaction between a-C:H clusters and the metal surface (and hence the speed of movement of a-C:H clusters across the metal surface) and that the SERS O2 effect should be rather explained using the "classical" model of SERS fluctuations, in which fluctuations are interpreted as a result of the thermally activated diffusion of carbon segments in and out of the SERS "hot spots". A numerical algorithm for modeling of the fluctuations of SERS intensity has been proposed, and some example simulations of SERS fluctuations have been carried out. For the first time, strongly fluctuating bands due to the stretching vibrations of significantly weakened C-H bonds have been identified.     

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopic studies on 1H-1,2,4-triazole adsorbed on silver colloidal nanoparticles

1H-1,2,4-triazole is a very effective corrosion inhibitor for copper. The adsorption of this compound on silver colloidal nanoparticles has been studied by means of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). SERS data are interpreted with the help of DFT calculations of models of the surface complex formed by 1H-1,2,4-triazole on the silver colloidal nanoparticles surface. It was found that this compound is adsorbed on metal surface in its anionic form and that it interacts with silver through the N₁ and N₂ atoms. The molecular plane assumes a tilted orientation with respect to the silver surface.     

表面增强拉曼光谱研究小檗碱与DNA的相互作用

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy based on conical holed enhancing substrates

In this contribution, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) based on conical holed glass substrates deposited with silver colloids was reported for the first time. It combines the advantages of both dry SERS assays based on plane films deposited with silver colloids and wet SERS assays utilizing cuvettes or capillary tubes. Compared with plane glass substrates deposited with silver colloids, the conical holed glass substrates deposited with silver colloids exhibited five-to ten-folds of increase in the rate of signal enhancement, due to the internal multiple reflections of both the excitation laser beam and the Raman scattering photons within conical holes. The application of conical holed glass substrates could also yield significantly stronger and more reproducible SERS signals than SERS assays utilizing capillary tubes to sample the mixture of silver colloids and the solution of the analyte of interest. The conical holed glass substrates in combination with the multiplicative effects model for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (MEM_SERS) achieved quite sensitive and precise quantification of 6-mercaptopurine in complex plasma samples with an average relative prediction error of about 4% and a limit of detection of about 0.02 μM using a portable i-Raman 785H spectrometer. It is reasonable to expect that SERS technique based on conical holed enhancing substrates in combination with MEM_SERS model can be developed and extended to other application areas such as drug detection, environmental monitoring, and clinic analysis, etc.     

密度泛函理论研究银上吸附对巯基吡啶的SERS化学增强效应

基于密度泛函理论计算和拉曼光谱理论分析,我们研究了对巯基吡啶(4MPY)分子的拉曼光谱和其在银上的表面增强拉曼光谱(SERS),并进一步探讨了SERS与界面吸附结构、异构化、质子化和氢键作用以及低能激发态的关系。首先,我们对两种分子异构体的相对稳定性和拉曼光谱进行了理论分析。在此基础上,进而研究了该分子与不同银簇作用时的拉曼光谱,结果表明,4MPY以巯基硫与银簇作用形成强的Ag―S键,导致拉曼光谱的线型不依赖于所选银簇的大小。接着我们考虑了吡啶氮端作用的两种情况。(1)当4MPY-银簇复合物同时以吡啶氮与水簇或水合质子簇形成氢键时,结果表明吡啶环的部分振动频率随氢键和质子化发生蓝移。(2)当考虑吡啶氮与银簇作用时,吡啶环三角畸变振动发生蓝移。上述情况不仅解释了实验观测的振动频率变化,而且表明了化学环境改变对相对拉曼强度的影响。最后,我们计算了当对巯基吡啶分子以单端或双端与银簇作用,在考虑激发光与低能激发态的能量匹配时,拉曼光谱强度与低能激发态的关系。计算结果表明,在双端吸附构型下,与吡啶氮成键的银簇受激发产生电荷转移态,不仅导致吡啶环v_(12)、v_1和v_(8a)振动的拉曼信号增强,而且选择性地增强吡啶环C―H面内对称弯曲振动v9a的拉曼信号。     

Surface-enhanced fluorescence and surface-enhanced Raman scattering of push–pull molecules: sulfur-functionalized 4-amino-7-nitrobenzofurazan adsorbed on Ag and Au nanostructured substrates

We investigated the chemisorption of self-assembled monolayers of sulfur-functionalized 4-amino-7-nitrobenzofurazan on gold and silver nanoisland films (NIFs) by means of surface-enhanced fluorescence (SEF) and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The ligand is a push–pull molecule, where an intramolecular charge transfer occurs between an electron-donor and an electron-acceptor group, thus exhibiting nonlinear optical properties that are related to both SERS and SEF effects. The presence of different heteroatoms in the molecule ensures the possibility of chemical interaction with both silver and gold substrates. The SERS spectra suggest that furazan is bound to silver via lone pairs of the nitrogen atoms, whereas the ligand is linked to gold via a sulfur atom. Silver NIFs provide more efficient enhancement of both fluorescence and Raman scattering in comparison with gold NIFs. The present SEF and SERS investigation could provide useful information for foreseeing changes in the nonlinear responses of this push–pull molecule.
