Abstract
Multifunctional probes are needed to characterize individual cells simultaneously by different techniques to provide complementary information. A preparative method and an in vitro demonstration of function are presented for a dual-function dark field microscopy/surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) liposome probe for cancer. Liposomes composed of zwitterionic lipids are valuable both to limit biofouling and to serve as a modular matrix to incorporate a variety of functional molecules and hence are used here as vehicles for SERS-active materials. Dark field microscopy and SERS represent new combined functionalities for targeted liposomal probes. Two methods of antibody conjugation to SERS liposomes are demonstrated: (i) direct conjugation to functional groups on the SERS liposome surface and (ii) postinsertion of lipid-functionalized antibody fragments (Fabs) into preformed SERS liposomes. In vitro experiments targeting both lymphoma cell line LY10 and primary human chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells demonstrate the usefulness of these probes as optical contrast agents in both dark field and Raman microscopy.

Abstract
Application of advances in nanomedicine and materials science to medical diagnostics is a promising area of research. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an innovative analytical method that exploits noble metal nanoparticles to noninvasively study cells, cell organelles and protein molecules. Below, we summarize the literature on the methods for early clinical diagnosis of some neurodegenerative and neuroendocrine diseases. We discuss the specifics, advantages and limitations of different diagnostic techniques based on the use of low- and high molecular weight biomarkers. We talk about the prospects of optical methods for rapid diagnosis of neurotransmitter metabolism disorders. Special attention is paid to new approaches to devising optical systems that expand the analytical potential of SERS, the tool that demonstrates remarkable sensitivity, selectivity and reproducibility of the results in determining target analytes in complex biological matrices.

Abstract
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are classified at a highest degree of threat in biodefense, due largely to their high lethality. With the growing risk of biowarfare, the shortcomings of the gold standard test for these neurotoxins, the mouse bioassay, have underscored the need to develop alternative diagnostic testing strategies. This paper reports on the detection of inactivated Clostridium botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT-A) and serotype B (BoNT-B), the two most important markers of botulism infection, by using a sandwich immunoassay, gold nanoparticle labels, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) within the context of two threat scenarios. The first scenario mimics part of the analysis needed in response to a “white powder” threat by measuring both neurotoxins in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), a biocompatible solvent often used to recover markers dispersed in a powdered matrix. The second scenario detects the two neurotoxins in spiked human serum to assess the clinical potential of the platform. The overall goal is to develop a test applicable to both scenarios in terms of projections of required levels of detection. We demonstrate the ability to measure BoNT-A and BoNT-B in PBS at a limit of detection (LoD) of 700 pg/mL (5 pM) and 84 pg/mL (0.6 pM), respectively, and in human serum at 1200 pg/mL (8 pM) and 91 pg/mL (0.6 pM), respectively, with a time to result under 24 h. The steps required to transform this platform into an onsite biodefense screening tool that can simultaneously and rapidly detect (<1 h) these and other agents are briefly discussed. Raman-based immunoassays can successfully detect botulism neurotoxins. Limits of detection for botulism neurotoxins A/B rival those of the mouse bioassay. Serum and liquid extracts are suitable sample matrices for the Raman assay.

Abstract
DNA-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) conjugate is one of the most versatile bionanomaterials for biomedical and clinical diagnosis. However, to finely tune the hybridization ability and precisely control the orientation and conformation of surface-tethered oligonucleotides on AuNPs remains a hurdle. In this work, we developed a poly adenine-mediated spherical nucleic acid (polyA-mediated SNA) strategy by assembling di-block DNA probes on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to spatially control interdistance and hybridization ability of oligonucleotides on AuNPs. By modulating length of poly A bound on the SNA with different degrees of constructing, we presented significant improved biosensing performance including high hybridization efficiency, and expanded dynamic range of analytes with more sensitive detection limit. Furthermore, this polyA design could facilitate the programmable detection for DNA in serum environment and simultaneous multicolor detection of three different microRNAs associated with pancreatic carcinoma. The demonstration of the link between modulation of SNA assembly strategy and biodetection capability will increase the development of high performance diagnostic tools for translational biomedicine.

Abstract
Nanostructured gold thin films were built from deposition of colloidal gold nanoparticles on silanized glass slides, and used to study the adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) after chemical treatment of gold surface with the mercaptans 2-mercaptoethanol, 3-mercaptoproprionic acid, 1,3-propanedithiol and 1-propanethiol. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy was used for investigating the chemical interactions of BSA with the modified gold surfaces. In the presence of the surface modifier 2-mercaptoethanol, a promoter of hydrogen bonds, the stable interactions among BSA and gold surfaces led to high reproducibility of the SERS spectral pattern in the most monitored points of the mapped surface. The vibrational assignment endorsed the assumption that lysine residue, majority present in the molecular structure, were the principal anchor site of BSA involved in the interactions with 2-mercaptoethanol-modified gold surface.

Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) fiber sensors have shown great potential in sensitive biosensing and medical diagnostics. However, current SERS fiber probes are most commonly based on stiff silica fibers, which, unfortunately, are not mechanically compliant with soft biological tissues. In addition, the poor biocompatibility of silica fibers sets another barrier that hinders their development for biomedical applications. Here, we present, to the best of our knowledge, the first demonstration of soft-polymer-optical-fiber-based SERS (SPOF-SERS) probes with physio-mechanical properties suitable for implantation, and demonstrate their potential applications for in situ detection of bioanalysts. The SPOFs are made from porous hydrogel materials that are soft, elastic, and biocompatible. The three-dimensional porous structures of the hydrogels enable high loading of metal nanoparticles to provide a large amount of SERS "hot spots" for high sensitivity. We tested the SPOF-SERS sensor for detection and discrimination of rhodamine 6G and 4-mercaptopyridine in situ with detection limits of 10-7 M and 10-8 M, respectively. We also demonstrated the capability of SPOF-SERS probes in multiplexing detection. The soft, biocompatible, and highly sensitive SERS probe is promising for bioanalytical and implantable biomedical applications.

Abstract
Circulating biomarkers have emerged as promising non-invasive, real-time surrogates for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of the therapeutic response. Current bio-sensing techniques mostly involve detection of either circulating cells or proteins which are inadequate in unfolding complex pathologic transformations. Herein, we report parallel detection of cellular and molecular markers (protein) for cancer using a multiplex platform featuring (i) graphene oxide (GO) functionalization that increases the active surface area and more importantly reduces the functionalization steps for rapid detection, (ii) alternating-current electrohydrodynamic (ac-EHD) fluid flow that provides delicate micro-mixing to enhance target-sensor interactions thereby minimizing non-specific binding and (iii) surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) for multiplex detection. We find that our platform possesses high sensitivity for detecting both proteins and cells. More importantly, this platform not only detects the cancer cells but also can simultaneously monitor the heterogeneous expression of cell surface proteins which could be clinically useful to determine effective patient therapy. We demonstrate the specific and sensitive detection of breast cancer cells from a mixture of non-target cells and report the heterogeneous expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) proteins on the individual cancer cell surface. Concurrently, we detect as low as 100 fg mL-1 HER2 and Mucin 16 proteins spiked in blood serum.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been recognized as a promising sensing technique in biomedical/biosensing applications and analytical chemistry. Silver (Ag) nanostructures have the strongest SERS enhancement, but suffer from severe enhancement degradation induced by oxidation. Here, we introduce electrochemical reduction of silver oxide to produce Ag SERS substrates on request to partially circumvent the SERS enhancement degradation problem of Ag SERS substrates. Silver oxide nanostructures were first prepared in pure silver citrate aqueous solutions with controllable morphologies depending on the electrodeposition parameters. The transition process from silver oxide to Ag was investigated by density functional theory calculations. Based on the understanding of the transition mechanism, heating treatment, applying reducing agent, and electrochemical reduction were adopted to transform silver oxide to Ag. Notably, no organic agents were introduced neither in the electrodeposition of silver oxide nor electrochemical transformation of silver oxide to Ag. The electrochemical reduction strategy could produce Ag SERS substrates with a 'clean' surface with outstanding SERS performance in a simple as well as cost and time effective manner. Ag SERS substrates can be used in biomedical/biosensing fields. The approach through electrochemical reduction of silver oxide to generate Ag SERS substrate may push forward practical application process of Ag SERS substrates.

Abstract
The presence of fiber optic devices, such as couplers or wavelength division multiplexers, based on hollow-core fibers (HCFs) is still rather uncommon, while such devices can be imagined to greatly increase the potential of HCFs for different applications, such as sensing, nonlinear optics, etc. In this paper, we present a combination of a standard, multimode fiber (MMF) optic coupler with a hollow core photonic bandgap fiber through arc fusion splicing and its application for the purpose of multiphoton spectroscopy. The presented splicing method is of high affordability due to the low cost of arc fusion splicers, and the measured splicing loss (SL) of the HCF-MMF splice is as low as (0.32 ± 0.1) dB, while the splice itself is durable enough to withstand a bending radius (rbend) of 1.8 cm. This resulted in a hybrid between the hollow core photonic bandgap fiber (HCPBF) and MMF coupler, delivering 20 mW of average power and 250-fs short laser pulses to the sample, which was good enough to test the proposed sensor setup in a simple, proof-of-concept multiphoton fluorescence excitation-detection experiment, allowing the successful measurement of the fluorescence emission spectrum of 10−5 M fluorescein solution. In our opinion, the presented results indicate the possibility of creating multi-purpose HCF setups, which would excel in various types of sensing applications.

Abstract
Background Microalbuminuria (mAlb) detection is essential for the diagnosis and prognosis of nephrotic patients and hypoproteinemia. In this article, we develop a new surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) quantitative analysis method to detect mAlb in urine. Methods Combined the mAlb immunoreaction with gold nanoreaction of graphene oxide nanoribbons (GONR)-HAuCl4-H2O2, and used Victoria blue B (VBB) as molecular probe with a SERS peak at 1,615 cm−1, a new SERS strategy for quantitative analysis of trace mAlb in urine was established. Results The linear range of SERS quantitative analysis method is from 0.065 to 2.62 ng/mL, with a detection limit of 0.02 ng/mL. The SERS method was applied to analysis of mAlb in urine with good accuracy and reliability, the relative standard deviation is 0.49%–2.28% and the recovery is 96.9%–109.8%. Conclusion This study demonstrated that the new SERS quantitative analysis method is of high sensitivity, good selectivity and simplicity. It has been applied to analysis of mAlb in urine, with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Glycated hemoglobin, HbA1c, is an important biomarker that reveals the average value of blood glucose over the preceding 3 months. While significant recent attention has been focused on the use of optical and direct molecular spectroscopic methods for determination of HbA1c, a facile test that minimizes sample preparation needs and turnaround time still remains elusive. Here, we report a label-free approach for identifying low, mid and high-HbA1c groups in hemolysate and in whole blood samples featuring resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy and support vector machine (SVM)-based classification of spectral patterns. The diagnostic power of RR measurements stems from its selective enhancement of hemoglobin-specific features, which simultaneously minimizes the blood matrix spectral interference and permits detection in the native solution. In this pilot study, our spectroscopic observations reveal that glycation of hemoglobin results in subtle but reproducible changes even when detected in the whole blood matrix. Leveraging SVM analysis of the principal component scores determined from the RR spectra, we show high degree of accuracy in classifying clinical specimen. We envisage that the promising findings will pave the way for more extensive clinical specimen investigations with the ultimate goal of translating molecular spectroscopy for routine point-of-care testing.

Abstract
In this study, we report on the fabrication of multilayered tri-functional magnetic-SERS-fluorescence nanoprobes (MF-SERS particles) containing clustered superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs), silver NPs, and a fluorescent silica layer. The MF-SERS particles exhibited strong SERS signals from the silver NPs as well as both superparamagnetism and fluorescence. MF-SERS particles were uptaken by cells, allowing successful separation using an external magnetic field. SERS and fluorescence signals could be detected from the NP-containing cells, and CD44 antibody-conjugated MF-SERS particles selectively targeted MDA-MB-231 cells. Based on these properties, MF-SERS particles proved to be a useful nanoprobe for multiplex detection and separation of cancer cells.

Abstract
Cu nanocrystals of various shapes are synthesized via a universal, eco-friendly, and facile colloidal method on Al substrates using hexadecylamine (HDA) as a capping agent and glucose as a reductant. By tuning the concentration of the capping agent, hierarchical 3D Cu nanocrystals show pronounced surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) through the concentrated hot spots at the sharp tips and gaps due to the unique 3D structure and the resulting plasmonic couplings. Intriguingly, 3D sword-shaped Cu crystals have the highest enhancement factor (EF) because of their relatively uniform size distribution and alignment. This work opens new pathways for efficiently realizing morphology control for Cu nanocrystals as highly efficient SERS platforms.

Abstract
Infectious diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria, especially multidrug-resistant bacteria, and their global spreading have become serious public health concerns. Early diagnosis and effective therapy can efficiently prevent deterioration and further spreading of the infections. There is an urgent need for sensitive, selective, and facile diagnosis as well as therapeutically potent treatment. The emergence of nanotechnology has provided more options for diagnosis and treatments of bacterial infections. Metal nanoparticles and metal oxide nanoparticles have drawn intense attention owing to their unique optical, magnetic, and electrical properties. These versatile metal-based nanoparticles have great potential for selective detection of bacteria and/or therapy. This review gives an overview of recent efforts on developing various metal-based nanoparticles for bacterial detection and infection therapy. It begins with an introduction of fundamental concepts and mechanisms in designing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Representative achievements are selected to illustrate the proof-of-concept in vitro and in vivo applications. A brief discussion of challenges and perspective outlook in this field is provided at the end of this review.

Abstract
Owing to its extreme sensitivity and easy execution, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) now finds application for a wide variety of problems requiring sensitive and targeted analyte detection. This widespread application has prompted a proliferation of different SERS-based sensors, suggesting the need for a framework to classify existing methods and guide the development of new techniques. After a brief discussion of the general SERS modalities, we classify SERS-based sensors according the origin of the signal. Three major categories emerge from this analysis: surface-affinity strategy, SERS-tag strategy, and probe-mediated strategy. For each case, we describe the mechanism of action, give selected examples, and point out general misconceptions to aid the construction of new devices. We hope this review serves as a useful tutorial guide and helps readers to better classify and design practical and effective SERS-based sensors.

Abstract
A robust immunoassay based on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been developed to simultaneously detect trace quantities of multiple pathogenic antigens from West Nile virus, Rift Valley fever virus, and Yersinia pestis in fetal bovine serum. Antigens were detected by capture with silica-encapsulated nanotags and magnetic nanoparticles conjugated with polyclonal antibodies. The magnetic pull-down resulted in aggregation of the immune complexes, and the silica-encapsulated nanotags provided distinct spectra corresponding to each antigen captured. The limit of detection was ∼10 pg/mL in 20% fetal bovine serum, a significant improvement over previous studies in terms of sensitivity, level of multiplexing, and medium complexity. This highly sensitive multiplex immunoassay platform provides a promising method to detect various antigens directly in crude serum samples without the tedious process of sample preparation, which is desirable for on-site diagnostic testing and real-time disease monitoring.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that it is important to consider the harmful effects of phenolic hormones on the human body. Traditional UV detection has many limitations, so there is a need to develop new detection methods. We demonstrated a simple and rapid surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) based detection method of trace amounts of phenolic estrogen. As a result of the coupling reaction, there is the formation of strong SERRS activity of azo compound. Therefore, the detection limits are as low as 0.2 × 10-4 for estrone (E1), estriol (E3), and bisphenol A (BPA). This method is universal because each SERRS fingerprint of the azo dyes a specific hormone. The use of this method is applicable for the testing of phenolic hormones through coupling reactions, and the investigation of other phenolic molecules. Therefore, this new method can be used for efficient detection.

Abstract
To achieve an insightful look within biomolecular processes on the cellular level, the development of diseases as well as the reliable detection of metabolites and pathogens, a modern analytical tool is needed that is highly sensitive, molecular-specific and exhibits fast detection. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is known to meet these requirements and, within this review article, the recent progress of label-free SERS in biological and biomedical applications is summarized and discussed. This includes the detection of biomolecules such as metabolites, nucleic acids and proteins. Further, the characterization and identification of microorganisms has been achieved by label-free SERS-based approaches. Eukaryotic cells can be characterized by SERS in order to gain information about the outer cell wall or to detect intracellular molecules and metabolites. The potential of SERS for medically relevant detection schemes is emphasized by the label-free detection of tissue, the investigation of body fluids as well as applications for therapeutic and illicit drug monitoring. The review article is concluded with an evaluation of the recent progress and current challenges in order to highlight the direction of label-free SERS in the future.

Abstract
There has been an increasing demand for rapid and sensitive techniques for the identification of Sudan compounds that emerged as the most often illegally added fat-soluble dyes in herbal medicine. In this report, we have designed and fabricated a functionalized filter paper consisting of gold nanorods (GNRs) and mono-6-thio-cyclodextrin (HS-β-CD) as a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrate, in which the GNR provides sufficient SERS enhancement, and the HS-β-CD with strong chemical affinity toward GNR provides the inclusion compound to capture hydrophobic molecules. Moreover, the CD-GNR were uniformly assembled on filter paper cellulose through the electrostatic adsorption and hydrogen bond, so that the CD-GNR paper-based SERS substrate (CD-GNR-paper) demonstrated higher sensitivity for the determination of Sudan III (0.1μM) and Sudan IV (0.5μM) than GNRs paper-based SERS substrate (GNR-paper), with high stability after the storage in the open air for 90days. Importantly, CD-GNR-paper can effectively collect the Sudan dyes from illegally adulterated onto samples of Resina Draconis with a simple operation, further open up new exciting opportunity for SERS detection of more compounds illegally added with high sensitivity and fast signal responses.

Abstract
Direct detection of genetic biomarkers in body fluid lysate without target amplification will revolutionize nucleic acid-based diagnostics. However, the low concentration of target sequences makes this goal challenging. We report a method for direct detection of pathogen RNA in blood lysate using a bioassay using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-based detection integrated in a "lab-in-a-stick" portable device. Two levels of signal enhancement were employed to achieve the sensitivity required for direct detection. Each target sequence was tagged with an ultrabright SERS-encoded nanorattle with ultrahigh SERS signals, and these tagged target sequences were concentrated into a focused spot for detection using hybridization sandwiches with magnetic microbeads. Furthermore, the washing process was automated by integration into a "lab-in-a-stick" portable device. We could directly detect synthetic target with a limit of detection of 200 fM. More importantly, we detected plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite RNA directly in infected red blood cells lysate. To our knowledge, this is the first report of SERS-based direct detection of pathogen nucleic acid in blood lysate without nucleic acid extraction or target amplification. The results show the potential of our integrated bioassay for field use and point-of-care diagnostics.

Abstract
The continuous increasing rate of patients suffering of Alzheimer's disease (AD) worldwide requires the adoption of novel techniques for non-invasive early diagnosis and monitoring of the disease. Here we review the various Raman spectroscopic techniques, including Fourier Transform-Raman spectroscopy, surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering spectroscopy, and confocal Raman microspectroscopy, that could be used for the diagnosis of AD. These techniques have shown the potential to detect AD biomarkers, such as the amyloid-β peptide and the tau protein, or the neurotransmitters involved in the disease (e.g., Glutamate and γ-Aminobutyric acid), or the typical structural alterations in specific brain areas. The possibility to detect the specific biomarkers in liquid biopsies and to obtain high resolution 3D microscope images of the affected area make the Raman spectroscopy a valuable ally in the early diagnosis and monitoring of AD.

Abstract
Lateral flow assay strips (LFASs) with Au nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely used as a probe for biomarkers in point-of-care testing; however, there still remain challenges in detection sensitivity and quantitative analysis. In this study, we developed a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based LFAS for quantitative analysis of a biomarker in the low concentration range. Moreover, apart from conventional Au NPs, three other types of citrate-capped Au-Ag bimetallic NPs: Au core with Ag shell NPs (Au@Ag NPs), rattle-like Au core in Ag-Au shell NPs (Au@Ag-Au NPs) and Ag-Au NPs were prepared and functionalized, and their solution-based SERS activities were comprehensively studied by experimental measurement and theoretical analysis. The results clearly indicated that the citrate-capped Au@Ag-Au NPs exhibited the highest SERS activity among the probes tested. Au@Ag-Au NPs were used as both optical and SERS probes in a SERS-based LFAS. In the presence of the analyte at high concentrations, a purple color appeared in the test zone. Highly sensitive and quantitative analysis was realized by measurement of SERS signals from the test lines. One of the most specific markers for cardiac injury, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), was chosen as the detection model. The detection limit of the SERS-based LFAS for cardiac troponin I was 0.09 ng/mL, lowered by nearly 50 times compared with visual results, and could be further lowered by optimization. These results demonstrated that the SERS-based LFAS using citrate-capped Au@Ag-Au NPs as probes can be a powerful tool for highly sensitive and quantitative detection of biomarkers. Graphical abstract A surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based lateral flow assay strip using rattle-like Au core in Ag-Au shell (Au@Ag-Au) nanoparticles as probes was developed for quantitative analysis of a biomarker, with a detection limit nearly 50 times lower than that of visual assessment.

Abstract
The ability to detect tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a global health care priority. This paper describes the development and preliminary assessment of the clinical accuracy of a heterogeneous immunoassay that integrates a serum pretreatment process with readout by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) for the low-level detection of mannose-capped lipoarabinomannan (ManLAM). ManLAM is a major virulence factor in the infectious pathology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) that has been found in the serum and other body fluids of infected patients. The effectiveness of ManLAM as a TB diagnostic marker, however, remains unproven for reasons not yet well understood. As reported herein, we have found that (1) ManLAM complexes with proteins and possibly other components in serum; (2) these complexes have a strongly detrimental impact on the ability to detect ManLAM using an immunoassay; (3) a simple pretreatment step can disrupt this complexation; and (4) disruption by pretreatment improves detection by 250×. We also describe the results from a preliminary assessment on the utility of serum pretreatment by running immunoassays on archived specimens from 24 TB-positive patients and 10 healthy controls. ManLAM was measurable in 21 of the 24 TB-positive specimens, but not in any of the 10 control specimens. These findings, albeit for a very small specimen set, translate to a clinical sensitivity of 87.5% and a clinical specificity of 100%. Together, these results both provide much needed evidence for the clinical utility of ManLAM as a TB marker, and demonstrate the potential utility of our overall approach to serve as a new strategy for the development of diagnostic tests for this disease.

Abstract
Non-metallic materials are often employed in SERS systems by forming composite structures with SERS-active metal materials. However, the role of the non-metallic structures in these composites and the effect of them on the SERS enhancement are still unclear. Herein, we studied the effect of silicon morphology on SERS enhancement on silver nanoparticles-coated different structured silicon surfaces. Our finding will help to further understand the SERS mechanism and pave the way for making more efficient SERS systems. The surface morphology of non-metallic silicon has a big effect on the SERS enhancement of silver nanoparticle-coated silicon surfaces.![]()

Abstract
DNA-functionalized nanoparticles, when paired with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), can rapidly detect microRNA. However, widespread use of this approach is hindered by drawbacks associated with large and expensive benchtop Raman microscopes. MicroRNA-17 (miRNA-17) has emerged as a potential epigenetic indicator of preeclampsia, a condition that occurs during pregnancy. Biomarker detection using an SERS point-of-care device could enable prompt diagnosis and prevention as early as the first trimester. Recently, strides have been made in developing portable Raman systems for field applications. An SERS assay for miRNA-17 was assessed and translated from traditional benchtop Raman microscopes to a handheld system. Three different photoactive molecules were compared as potential Raman reporter molecules: a chromophore, malachite green isothiocyanate (MGITC), a fluorophore, tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate, and a polarizable small molecule 5,5-dithio-bis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). For the benchtop Raman microscope, the DTNB-labeled assay yielded the greatest sensitivity under 532-nm laser excitation, but the MGITC-labeled assay prevailed at 785 nm. Conversely, DTNB was preferable for the miniaturized 785-nm Raman system. This comparison showed significant SERS enhancement variation in response to 1-nM miRNA-17, implying that the sensitivity of the assay may be more heavily dependent on the excitation wavelength, instrumentation, and Raman reporter chosen than on the plasmonic coupling from DNA/miRNA-mediated nanoparticle assemblies.

Diagnostic technologies for the detection of plant pathogens with point-of-care capability and high multiplexing ability are an essential tool in the fight to reduce the large agricultural production losses caused by plant diseases. The main desirable characteristics for such diagnostic assays are high specificity, sensitivity, reproducibility, quickness, cost efficiency and high-throughput multiplex detection capability. This article describes and discusses various DNA-based point-of care diagnostic methods for applications in plant disease detection. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the most common DNA amplification technology used for detecting various plant and animal pathogens. However, subsequent to PCR based assays, several types of nucleic acid amplification technologies have been developed to achieve higher sensitivity, rapid detection as well as suitable for field applications such as loop-mediated isothermal amplification, helicase-dependent amplification, rolling circle amplification, recombinase polymerase amplification, and molecular inversion probe. The principle behind these technologies has been thoroughly discussed in several review papers; herein we emphasize the application of these technologies to detect plant pathogens by outlining the advantages and disadvantages of each technology in detail.

Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has become a powerful technique for trace analysis of biomolecules. The use of SERS-tags has evolved into clinical diagnostics, the enhancement of the intrinsic signal of biomolecules on SERS active materials shows tremendous promise for the analysis of biomolecules and potential biomedical assays. The detection of the de novo signal from a wide range of biomolecules has been reported to date. In this review, we examine different classes of biomolecules for the signals observed and experimental details that enable their detection. In particular, we survey nucleic acids, amino acids, peptides, proteins, metabolites, and pathogens. The signals observed show that the interaction of the biomolecule with the enhancing nanostructure has a significant influence on the observed spectrum. Additional experiments demonstrate that internal standards can correct for intensity fluctuations and provide quantitative analysis. Experimental methods that control the interaction at the surface are providing for reproducible SERS signals. Results suggest that combining advances in methodology with the development of libraries for SERS spectra may enable the characterization of biomolecules complementary to other existing methods.

Abstract
Precise identification and detection of cancer cells using nanoparticle probes are critically important for early cancer diagnosis and subsequent therapy. We herein develop novel folate receptor (FR)-targeted surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobes for cancer cell imaging based on a click coupling strategy. A Raman-active derivative (5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid)-N3 (DNBA-N3)) is designed with a disulfide bond for covalently anchoring to the surface of hollow gold nanoparticles (HAuNPs) and a terminal azide group for facilitating highly efficient conjugation with the bioligand. Modification of HAuNPs with DNBA-N3 yields monolayer coverage of Raman labels absorbed on the nanoparticle surface (HAuNP-DNBA-N3) and strong SERS signals. HAuNP-DNBA-N3 can be simply and effectively conjugated with folate bicyclo[6.1.0]nonyne derivatives via a copper-free click reaction. The synthesized nanoprobes (HAuNP-DNBA-folic acid (FA)) exhibit excellent targeted capacities to FR-positive cancer cells relative to FR-negative cells through SERS mappings. The receptor-mediated delivery behaviors are confirmed by comparison with the uptake of HAuNP-DNBA-N3 and free FA competition experiments. In addition to its good stability and benign biocompatibility, the developed SERS nanoprobes have great potential for applications in targeted tumor imaging.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanomaterials (P-NM) are receiving attention due to their excellent properties, which include surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effects, plasmonic resonance energy transfer (PRET), and magneto optical (MO) effects. To obtain such plasmonic properties, many nanomaterials have been developed, including metal nanoparticles (MNP), bimetallic nanoparticles (bMNP), MNP-decorated carbon nanotubes, (MNP-CNT), and MNP-modified graphene (MNP-GRP). These P-NMs may eventually be applied to optical biosensing systems due to their unique properties. Here, probe biomolecules, such as antibodies (Ab), probe DNA, and probe aptamers, were modified on the surface of plasmonic materials by chemical conjugation and thiol chemistry. The optical property change in the plasmonic nanomaterials was monitored based on the interaction between the probe biomolecules and target virus. After bioconjugation, several optical properties, including fluorescence, plasmonic absorbance, and diffraction angle, were changed to detect the target biomolecules. This review describes several P-NMs as potential candidates of optical sensing platforms and introduces various applications in the optical biosensing field.

Abstract
A rise in head and neck cancers in low and middle countries over recent years has prompted the need for low-cost, resource-efficient diagnostic technologies. Standard diagnosis with histopathology is often not feasible due to the low number of trained pathologists in these regions, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. This study presents an alternative diagnostic method to standard histopathology. We developed a surface enhanced raman scattering (SERS) based method to distinguish squamous cell carcinoma from other cell lines. Using a "sandwich" method employing ultrabright SERA nanorattles and magnetic beads, we directly targeted specific nucleic acid markers of squamous cells. Our method was able to detect the presence of squamous cells with high sensitivity and specificity, supporting its potential for use as a diagnostic tool in head and neck fine needle aspirations (FNA).

Abstract
The development of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based microfluidic platforms has attracted significant recent attention in the biological sciences. SERS is a highly sensitive detection modality, with microfluidic platforms providing many advantages over microscale methods, including high analytical throughput, facile automation, and reduced sample requirements. Accordingly, the integration of SERS with microfluidic platforms offers significant utility in chemical and biological experimentation. Herein, we report a fully integrated SERS-based microdroplet platform for the automatic immunoassay of specific antigen fraction 1 (F1) in Yersinia pestis. Specifically, highly efficient and rapid immunoreactions are achieved through sequential droplet generation, transport, and merging, while wash-free immunodetection is realized through droplet-splitting. Such integration affords a novel multifunctional platform capable of performing complex multistep immunoassays in nL-volume droplets. The limit of detection of the F1 antigen for Yersinia pestis using the integrated SERS-based microdroplet platform is 59.6 pg/mL, a value approximately 2 orders of magnitude more sensitive than conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. This assay system has additional advantages including reduced sample consumption (less than 100 μL), rapid assay times (less than 10 min), and fully automated fluid control. We anticipate that this integrated SERS-based microdroplet device will provide new insights in the development of facile assay platforms for various hazardous materials.

Abstract
In vitro biosensors have been an integral component for early diagnosis of cancer in the clinic. Among them, no-wash biosensors, which only depend on the simple mixing of the signal generating probes and the sample solution without additional washing and separation steps, have been found to be particularly attractive. The outstanding advantages of facile, convenient, and rapid response of no-wash biosensors are especially suitable for point-of-care testing (POCT). One fast-growing field of no-wash biosensor design involves the usage of nanomaterials as signal amplification carriers or direct signal generating elements. The analytical capacity of no-wash biosensors with respect to sensitivity or limit of detection, specificity, stability, and multiplexing detection capacity is largely improved because of their large surface area, excellent optical, electrical, catalytic, and magnetic properties. This review provides a comprehensive overview of various nanomaterial-enhanced no-wash biosensing technologies and focuses on the analysis of the underlying mechanism of these technologies applied for the early detection of cancer biomarkers ranging from small molecules to proteins, and even whole cancerous cells. Representative examples are selected to demonstrate the proof-of-concept with promising applications for in vitro diagnostics of cancer. Finally, a brief discussion of common unresolved issues and a perspective outlook on the field are provided.
