Published: February 2019

Integrating probes and a substrate together, a fluorescence-enhanced interfacial "molecular beacon" (FEIMB) is demonstrated, based on directional surface plasmon coupled emission. Through this simple yet efficient interfacial modulation engineering to create an interfacial quencher (graphene oxide)-enhancer (gold nanofilm) pair, the quenching-to-enhancing region of FEIMB can be actively tuned. Therefore, it provides a spatial match between signal transduction and interface-mediated biorecognition switching. Via combination of strong quenching and efficient plasmonic coupling, a synergistically amplified signal-to-background ratio of >1000-fold has been achieved. FEIMBs have been employed in protein and DNA detection, creating a high-performance and universal chip-based plasmon-mediated fluorescence sensing platform.

Single nanoparticle (NP) cyclic voltarefractometry (CVR), realized as wide-field surface plasmon resonance microscopy (SPRM) in combination with potential cycling, has been proposed and applied to the in situ study of TiO NPs. Electrochemical activity of TiO is mainly observed outside the electrochemical stability window of water. Therefore, the response of individual anatase (a-TiO) and rutile (r-TiO) NPs adsorbed on a gold layer was studied in 0.

One-step spray pyrolysis synthesis of ZnO/Ag hollow spheres for enhanced visible-light-driven antibacterial applications and wound healing.

Dalton Trans

ZnO/Ag hollow particles were synthesized a one-step spray pyrolysis method for enhanced antibacterial activity and wound healing applications. The hollow structure and uniform distribution of Ag nanoparticles within the ZnO matrix were confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). UV-Vis spectroscopy and Tauc plot analysis revealed a reduction in the bandgap, attributed to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of Ag, improving light absorption in the visible range.

An optical biosensor is a specialized analytical device that utilizes the principles of optics and light in bimolecular processes. Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is a phenomenon in the realm of nanophotonics that occurs when metallic nanoparticles (NPs) or nanostructures interact with incident light. Conversely, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an influential analytical technique based on Raman scattering, wherein it amplifies the Raman signals of molecules when they are situated near specific and specially designed nanostructures.

Introduction: In the last decades, the recombinant tissue plasminogen activator alteplase has been the standard fibrinolytic treatment of acute myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, and acute ischemic stroke. An optimized version of alteplase, tenecteplase, has been developed by exchanging six amino acids to increase half-life, achieve higher fibrin selectivity and increase resistance to plasminogen activator inhibitor-1. Meanwhile, several products containing tenecteplase exist.

Detecting small concentrations of nitro-compounds surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is reported. In particular, explosive analogues, such as 4-nitrophenol, 1-nitronaphthalene, and 5-nitroisoquinoline, and an explosive material (picric acid) are investigated and prepared by measurements using two different methods. One method involved mixing the analyte with plasmonic silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in a solution, followed by subsequent drop-casting of the mixture onto a silicon substrate.
