Rapid and highly sensitive detection of duplex dye-labelled DNA sequences in a PDMS microfluidic channel was investigated using confocal surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). This method does not need either an immobilization procedure or a PCR amplification procedure, which are essential for a DNA microarray chip. Furthermore, Raman peaks of each dye-labelled DNA can be easily resolved since they are much narrower than the corresponding broad fluorescence bands. To find the potential applicability of confocal SERS for sensitive bio-detection in a microfluidic channel, the mixture of two different dye-labelled (TAMRA and Cy3) sex determining Y genes, SRY and SPGY1, was adsorbed on silver colloids in the alligator teeth-shaped PDMS microfluidic channel and its SERS signals were measured under flowing conditions. Its major SERS peaks were observable down to the concentration of 10(-11) M. In the present study, we explore the feasibility of confocal SERS for the highly sensitive detection of duplex dye-labelled DNA oligonucleotides in a PDMS microfluidic chip. 相似文献

Numerous studies have addressed the challenges of implementing miniaturized microfluidic platforms for chemical and biological separation applications. However, the integration of real time detection schemes capable of providing valuable sample information under continuous, ultra low volume flow regimes has not fully been addressed. In this report we present a chip based chromatography system comprising of a pillar array separation column followed by a reagent channel for passive mixing of a silver colloidal solution into the eluent stream to enable surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection. Our design is the first integrated chip based microfluidic device to combine pressure driven separation capability with real time SERS detection. With this approach we demonstrate the ability to collect distinctive SERS spectra with or without complete resolution of chromatographic bands. Computational fluidic dynamic (CFD) simulations are used to model the diffusive mixing behaviour and velocity profiles of the two confluent streams in the microfluidic channels. We evaluate the SERS spectral band intensity and chromatographic efficiency of model analytes with respect to kinetic factors as well as signal acquisition rates. Additionally, we discuss the use of a pluronic modified silver colloidal solution as a means of eliminating contamination generally caused by nanoparticle adhesion to channel surfaces. 相似文献

A rapid and highly sensitive trace analysis technique for determining malachite green (MG) in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic sensor was investigated using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). A zigzag-shaped PDMS microfluidic channel was fabricated for efficient mixing between MG analytes and aggregated silver colloids. Under the optimal condition of flow velocity, MG molecules were effectively adsorbed onto silver nanoparticles while flowing along the upper and lower zigzag-shaped PDMS channel. A quantitative analysis of MG was performed based on the measured peak height at 1615 cm−1 in its SERS spectrum. The limit of detection, using the SERS microfluidic sensor, was found to be below the 1–2 ppb level and this low detection limit is comparable to the result of the LC-Mass detection method. In the present study, we introduce a new conceptual detection technology, using a SERS microfluidic sensor, for the highly sensitive trace analysis of MG in water. 相似文献

Microfluidic chips combined with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) offer an outstanding platform for rapid and high-sensitivity
chemical analysis. However, it is nontrivial to conveniently form nanoparticle aggregrates (as SERS-active spots for SERS
detection) in microchannels in a well-controlled manner. Here, we present a rapid, highly sensitive and label-free analytical
technique for determining bovine serum albumin (BSA) on a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microfluidic chip using SERS. A modified
PDMS pneumatic valve and nanopost arrays at the bottom of the fluidic microchannel are used for reversibly trapping gold nanoparticles
to form gold aggregates, creating SERS-active spots for Raman detection. We fabricated a chip that consisted of a T-shaped
fluidic channel and two modified pneumatic valves, which was suitable for fast loading of samples. Quantitative analysis of
BSA is demonstrated with the measured peak intensity at 1,615 cm−1 in the surface-enhanced Raman spectra. With our microfluidic chip, the detection limit of Raman can reach as low as the picomolar
level, comparable to that of normal mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Here we report the development of a programmable and fully automatic gold array-embedded gradient microfluidic chip that integrates a gradient microfluidic device with gold-patterned microarray wells. This device provides a convenient and reproducible surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based immunoassay platform for cancer biomarkers. We used hollow gold nanospheres (HGNs) as SERS agents because of their highly sensitive and reproducible characteristics. The utility of this platform was demonstrated by the quantitative immunoassay of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) model protein marker. Our proposed SERS-based immunoassay platform has many advantages over other previously reported SERS immunoassay methods. The tedious manual dilution process of repetitive pipetting and inaccurate dilution is eliminated with this process because various concentrations of biomarker are automatically generated by microfluidic gradient generators with N cascade-mixing stages. The total assay time from serial dilution to SERS detection takes less than 60 min because all of the experimental conditions for the formation and detection of immunocomplexes can be automatically controlled inside the exquisitely designed microfluidic channel. Thus, this novel SERS-based microfluidic assay technique is expected to be a powerful clinical tool for fast and sensitive cancer marker detection. 相似文献

The fabrication and on-chip integration of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) optrodes are presented. In the optrode configuration, both the laser excitation and the back-scattered Raman signal are transmitted through the same optical fiber. The SERS-active component of the optrode was fabricated through the self-assembly of silver nanoparticles on the tip of optical fibers. The application of SERS optrodes to detect dyes in aqueous solution indicated a limit of quantification below 1 nM, using nile blue A as a molecular probe. Using the optrode-integrated microfluidic chip, it was possible to detect several different dyes from solutions sequentially injected into the same channel. This approach for sequential detection of different analytes is applicable to monitoring on-chip chemical processes. The narrow bandwidth of the vibrational information generated by SERS allowed solutions of different compositions of two chemically similar dyes to be distinguished using a dilution microfluidic chip. These results demonstrate the advantages of the SERS-optrode for microfluidics applications by illustrating the potential of this vibrational method to quantify components in a mixture. 相似文献

We report here a facile approach for flexible integration of high efficiency surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) monitors in a continuous microfluidic channel. In our work, femtosecond laser direct writing was adopted for highly localizable and controllable fabrication of the SERS monitor through a multi-photon absorption (MPA) induced photoreduction of silver salt solution. The silver substrate could be shaped into designed patterns, and could be precisely located at the desired position of the microchannel bed, giving the feasibility for real-time detection during reactions. SEM and TEM images show that the silver substrates were composed of crystallized silver nanoplates with an average thickness of 50 nm. AFM results reveal that the substrates were about 600 nm in height and the surface was very rough. As representative tests for SERS detection, p-aminothiophenol (p-ATP) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) were chosen as probing molecules for microfluidic analysis at visible light (514.5 nm) excitation, exhibiting an enhancement factor of ~10(8). In addition, the combination of the SERS substrate with the microfluidic channel allows detection of inactive analytes through in situ microfluidic reactions. 相似文献

3D plasmonic colloidosomes are superior SERS sensors owing to their high sensitivity and excellent tolerance to laser misalignment. Herein, we incorporate plasmonic colloidosomes in a microfluidic channel for online SERS detection. Our method resolves the poor signal reproducibility and inter-sample contamination in the existing online SERS platforms. Our flow system offers rapid and continuous online detection of 20 samples in less than 5 min with excellent signal reproducibility. The isolated colloidosomes prevent cross-sample and channel contamination, allowing accurate quantification of samples over a concentration range of five orders of magnitude. Our system demonstrates high-resolution multiplex detection with fully preserved signal and Raman features of individual analytes in a mixture. High-throughput multi-assay analysis is performed, which highlights that our system is capable of rapid identification and quantification of a sequence of samples containing various analytes and concentrations. 相似文献

This paper describes the development of a portable microfluidic chip based on a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensor for crystal violet analysis. A Y-shape microfluidic chip with a staggered herringbone structure was designed to efficiently mix the analyte and SERS active silver colloid. The subsequent detection of the analyte was performed on the microfluidic chip by a portable Raman system. Compared with other methods, this sensor is easy to operate and is expected to have applications for rapid and sensitive on-site analysis. A good linear correlation over the concentration range of 10 to 750 nM of crystal violet with a correlation coefficient of 0.992 was obtained. The recovery was between 98.6% and 102.9% for crystal violet in river water with relative standard deviations between 2.43% and 4.26%. 相似文献

Practical applications of chemical and biological detections through surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) require high reproducibility, sensitivity, and efficiency, along with low-cost, straightforward fabrication. In this work, we integrated a poly-(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) chip with quasi-3D gold plasmonic nanostructure arrays (Q3D-PNAs), which serve as SERS-active substrates, into an optofluidic microsystem for online sensitive and reproducible SERS detections. The Q3D-PNA PDMS chip was fabricated through soft lithography to ensure both precision and low-cost fabrication. The optimal dimension of the Q3D-PNA in PDMS was designed using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) electromagnetic simulations with a simulated enhancement factor (EF) of 1.6 × 106. The real-time monitoring capability of the SERS-based optofluidic microsystem was investigated by kinetic on/off experiments through alternatively flowing Rhodamine 6G (R6G) and ethanol in the microfluidic channel. A switch-off time of ∼2 min at a flow rate of 0.3 mL min−1 was demonstrated. When applied to the detection of low concentration malathion, the SERS-based optofluidic microsystem with Q3D-PNAs showed high reproducibility, significantly improved efficiency and higher detection sensitivity via increasing the flow rate. The optofluidic microsystem presented in this paper offers a simple and low-cost approach for online, label-free chemical and biological analysis and sensing with high sensitivity, reproducibility, efficiency, and molecular specificity. 相似文献

A surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) sensing approach for urine glucose was developed based on the laminar flow technology in a cross-type microfluidic chip with SERS probes, 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) functionalized Ag nanoparticles. MPBA as the glucose receptor can identify and bind up with glucose at a molar ratio of 2:1, which can cause the aggregation of SERS probes at a certain position of the chip channel and further enhance the SERS signal of MPBA significantly. Thus, the quantitative SERS detection of glucose was achieved indirectly. No sample pretreatment and separation were needed in this method since the SERS detection was achieved in the gradient diffusion and molecular recognition processes between urine glucose and SERS probe in the laminar flow, which simplified the sample treatment procedures, saved detection time and made it feasible for clinic applications. This method shows a good linear relationship within human body's normal physiological range and has high sensitivity and selectivity. The lowest detection concentration can reach 1.0 mg/dL. 相似文献

The widespread development of microfluidics (microfluidics) has allowed the extension of efficient separations, fluid handling, and hyphenation with many detection modes to a small, portable, highly controllable physico-chemical platform. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) offers the powerful advantage of obtaining vibrational spectroscopic information about analytes in an aqueous matrix with negligible background. The mating of electrophoretic separations with vibrational spectroscopy on a microfluidic device will allow the chromatographic efficiency of capillary electrophoresis (CE) with the unequivocal analyte "fingerprinting" capability of detailed structural information. By utilizing SERS as a means of detection, this work promises to yield redress for the hindrances of electrophoretic separations, including uncertainty in analyte band identification due to changing migration times as well as compromised detection sensitivity for non-fluorescent analytes. Our work represents the first steps toward developing CE-SERS on a microfluidic platform with a region of novel metal-pliable polymer nanocomposite SERS substrate fabricated directly into the device. The device fabrication material has been extensively employed by the microfluidics community for over five years. SERS detection can be achieved in real time or after the separations, with on-column laser-induced fluorescence employed as a secondary detection mode used for confirmation of efficiencies and band locations. 相似文献

A sequence-specific detection method of DNA is presented combining a solid chip surface for immobilisation of capture DNAs
with a microfluidic platform and a readout of the chip based on SERS. The solid chip surface is used for immobilisation of
different capture DNAs, where target strands can be hybridised and unbound surfactants can be washed away. For the detection
via SERS, short-labelled oligonucleotides are hybridised to the target strands. This technique is combined with a microfluidic
platform that enables a fast and automated preparation process. By applying a chip format, the problems of sequence-specific
DNA detection in solution phase by means of SERS can be overcome. With this setup, we are able to distinguish between different
complementary and non-complementary target sequences in one sample solution. 相似文献

There is a constant need for the development of easy-to-operate systems for the rapid and unambiguous identification of bacterial pathogens in drinking water without the requirement for time-consuming culture processes. In this study, we present a disposable and low-cost lab-on-a-chip device utilizing a nanoporous membrane, which connects two stacked perpendicular microfluidic channels. Whereas one of the channels supplies the sample, the second one attracts it by potential-driven forces. Surface-enhanced Raman spectrometry (SERS) is employed as a reliable detection method for bacteria identification. To gain the effect of surface enhancement, silver nanoparticles were added to the sample. The pores of the membrane act as a filter trapping the bodies of microorganisms as well as clusters of nanoparticles creating suitable conditions for sensitive SERS detection. Therein, we focused on the construction and characterization of the device performance. To demonstrate the functionality of the microfluidic chip, we analyzed common pathogens (Escherichia coli DH5α and Pseudomonas taiwanensis VLB120) from spiked tap water using the optimized experimental parameters. The obtained results confirmed our system to be promising for the construction of a disposable optical platform for reliable and rapid pathogen detection which couples their electrokinetic concentration on the integrated nanoporous membrane with SERS detection. 相似文献

Herein, quantitative online monitoring of concentration fluctuations of different interesting drugs, namely, the phenothiazine promethazine as well as the anti‐cancer agent mitoxantrone via surface enhanced Raman scattering assay based on a microfluidic device is demonstrated. With the applied liquid/liquid two‐phase‐segmented flow system we succeed in preventing the adhesion of nanoparticle aggregates to the channel walls which is necessary for a quantitative analysis. Even after repeated cycles no carry‐over due to sedimentation of colloid particles is observed. To the best of our knowledge these are the first measurements applying a combination of a microfluidic device with SERS detection for quantitative online monitoring of fluctuations in drug concentrations over hours without use of aggressive chemicals for rinsing the chip surfaces prior to each measurement. 相似文献

Au–Ag bimetallic microfluidic, dumbbell-shaped, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors were fabricated on cellulose paper by screen printing. These printed sensors rely on a sample droplet injection zone, and a SERS detection zone at either end of the dumbbell motif, fabricated by printing silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) successively with microscale precision. The microfluidic channel was patterned using an insulating ink to connect these two zones and form a hydrophobic circuit. Owing to capillary action of paper in the millimeter-sized channels, the sensor could enable self-filtering of fluids to remove suspended particles within wastewater without pumping. This sensor also allows sensitive SERS detection, due to advantageous combination of the strong surface enhancement of Ag NPs and excellent chemical stability of Au NPs. The SERS performance of the sensors was investigated by employing the probe rhodamine 6G, a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.1 × 10−13 M and an enhancement factor of 8.6 × 106 could be achieved. Moreover, the dumbbell-shaped bimetallic sensors exhibited good stability with SERS performance being maintained over 14 weeks in air, and high reproducibility with less than 15% variation in spot-to-spot SERS intensity. Using these dumbbell-shaped bimetallic sensors, substituted aromatic pollutants in wastewater samples could be quantitatively analyzed, which demonstrated their excellent capability for rapid trace pollutant detection in wastewater samples in the field without pre-separation. 相似文献

The design and fabrication of a multilayered polymer micro-nanofluidic chip is described that consists of poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) layers that contain microfluidic channels separated in the vertical direction by polycarbonate (PC) membranes that incorporate an array of nanometre diameter cylindrical pores. The materials are optically transparent to allow inspection of the fluids within the channels in the near UV and visible spectrum. The design architecture enables nanofluidic interconnections to be placed in the vertical direction between microfluidic channels. Such an architecture allows microchannel separations within the chip, as well as allowing unique operations that utilize nanocapillary interconnects: the separation of analytes based on molecular size, channel isolation, enhanced mixing, and sample concentration. Device fabrication is made possible by a transfer process of labile membranes and the development of a contact printing method for a thermally curable epoxy based adhesive. This adhesive is shown to have bond strengths that prevent leakage and delamination and channel rupture tests exceed 6 atm (0.6 MPa) under applied pressure. Channels 100 microm in width and 20 microm in depth are contact printed without the adhesive entering the microchannel. The chip is characterized in terms of resistivity measurements along the microfluidic channels, electroosmotic flow (EOF) measurements at different pH values and laser-induced-fluorescence (LIF) detection of green-fluorescent protein (GFP) plugs injected across the nanocapillary membrane and into a microfluidic channel. The results indicate that the mixed polymer micro-nanofluidic multilayer chip has electrical characteristics needed for use in microanalytical systems. 相似文献
