This paper presents functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (FeO@Au MNPs) combined with the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technique for sensitive detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) protein biomarker carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9). FeO@Au MNPs were constructed by the PEI-mediated seed growth method. Then, the signal molecule 5-5'-dithiobis (succinimidyl-2-nitrobenzoic acid) was used as a bridging agent to link CA19-9 antibody, and the SERS sensor was prepared.

Early diagnosis of drug-induced kidney injury (DIKI) is essential for clinical treatment and intervention. However, developing a reliable method to trace kidney injury origins through retrospective studies remains a challenge. In this study, we designed ordered fried-bun-shaped Au nanocone arrays (FBS NCAs) to create microarray chips as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) analysis platform.

Based on the coordination principle of Lewis acids, a 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA)-modified novel dumbbell-shaped Au-Ag nanorod (4-MPBA@DS Au-AgNR) substrate was developed, which could be combined with the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique to detect SO with high sensitivity and specificity. DS Au-AgNRs synthesized in this study with a dumbbell-shaped structure were verified by finite-difference time domain (FDTD) simulation to be capable of stimulating strong localized electromagnetic enhancement (EM) at nano-edge and gap, generating a large number of "hot spots" exhibiting excellent SERS performance. The 4-MPBA modified on its surface could specifically recognize SO, producing a change in the spectral peak at 1382 cm, thus realizing highly sensitive and specific sensing of SO.
