Abstract
Despite the success of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) for detecting DNA immobilized on plasmonic metal surfaces, its quantitative response is limited by the rapid falloff of enhancement with distance from the metal surface and variations in sensitivity that depend on orientation and proximity to plasmonic "hot spots". In this work, we assess an alternative approach for enhancing detection by immobilizing DNA on the interior surfaces of porous silica particles. These substrates provide over a 1000-fold greater surface area for detection compared to a planar support. The porous silica substrate is a purely dielectric material with randomly oriented internal surfaces, where scattering is independent of proximity and orientation of oligonucleotides relative to the silica surface. We characterize the quantitative response of Raman scattering from DNA in porous silica particles with sequences used in previous SERS investigations of DNA for comparison. The results show that Raman scattering of DNA in porous silica is independent of distance of nucleotides from the silica surface, allowing detection of longer DNA strands with constant sensitivity. The surface area enhancement within particles is reproducible (<4% particle-to-particle variation) owing to the uniform internal pore structure and surface chemistry of the silica support. DNA immobilization with a bis-thiosuccinimide linker provides a Raman-active internal standard for quantitative interpretation of Raman scattering results. Despite the high (30 mM) concentrations of immobilized DNA within porous silica particles, they can be used to measure nanomolar binding affinities of target molecules to DNA by equilibrating a very small number of particles with a sufficiently large volume of low-concentration solution of target molecules.

Single-Atom Site SERS Chip for Rapid, Ultrasensitive, and Reproducible Direct-Monitoring of RNA Binding. Adv Healthc Mater 2024; 13:e2301146.

Abstract
Ribonucleic acids (RNA) play active roles within cells or viruses by catalyzing biological reactions, controlling gene expression, and communicating responses to cellular signals. Rapid monitoring RNA variation has become extremely important for appropriate clinical decisions and frontier biological research. However, the most widely used method for RNA detection, nucleic acid amplification, is restricted by a mandatory temperature cycling period of ≈1 h required to reach target detection criteria. Herein, a direct detection approach via single-atom site integrated surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) monitoring nucleic acid pairing reaction, can be completed within 3 min and reaches high sensitivity and extreme reproducibility for COVID-19 and two other influenza viruses' detection. The mechanism is that a single-atom site on SERS chip, enabled by positioning a single-atom oxide coordinated with a specific complementary RNA probe on chip nanostructure hotspots, can effectively bind target RNA analytes to enrich them at designed sites so that the binding reaction can be detected through Raman signal variation. This ultrafast, sensitive, and reproducible single-atom site SERS chip approach paves the route for an alternative technique of immediate RNA detection. Moreover, single-atom site SERS is a novel surface enrichment strategy for SERS active sites for other analytes at ultralow concentrations.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has evolved into a robust analytical technique capable of detecting a variety of biomolecules despite challenges in securing a reliable Raman signal. Conventional SERS-based nucleic acid detection relies on hybridization assays, but reproducibility and signal strength issues have hindered research on directly amplifying nucleic acids on SERS surfaces. This study introduces a deep learning assisted ZnO-Au-SERS-based direct amplification (ZADA) system for rapid, sensitive molecular diagnostics. The system employs a SERS substrate fabricated by depositing gold on uniformly grown ZnO nanorods. These nanorods create hot spots for the amplification of the target nucleic acids directly on the SERS surface, eliminating the need for postamplification hybridization and Raman reporters. The limit of detection of the ZADA system was superior to those of the conventional amplification methods. Clinical validation of the ZADA system with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) samples from human patients yielded a sensitivity and specificity of 92.31% and 81.25%, respectively. The integration of a deep learning program further enhanced sensitivity and specificity to 100% and reduced SERS analysis time, showcasing the potential of the ZADA system for rapid, label-free disease diagnosis via direct nucleic acid amplification and detection within 20 min.

Abstract
Grain crops are easily contaminated by fungi due to the existence of various microorganisms in the storage process, especially in humid and warm storage conditions. Compared with conventional methods, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has paved the way for the detection of fungi in grain crops as it is a rapid, nondestructive, and sensitive analytical method. In this work, Aspergillus niger, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Fusarium moniliforme and Trichoderma viride in grain crops were detected using colloidal Au nanoparticles and SERS. The results indicated that different fungi showed different Raman phenotypes, which could be easily characterized by SERS. Combined with multivariate statistical analysis, identification of a variety of fungi could be accomplished rapidly and accurately. This research can be applied for the rapid detection of fungi in the food and biomedical industries.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has great potential as an analytical technique for environmental analyses. In this study, we fabricated highly porous gold (Au) supraparticles (i.e., ∼100 μm diameter agglomerates of primary nano-sized particles) and evaluated their applicability as SERS substrates for the sensitive detection of environmental contaminants. Facile supraparticle fabrication was achieved by evaporating a droplet containing an Au and polystyrene (PS) nanoparticle mixture on a superamphiphobic nanofilament substrate. Porous Au supraparticles were obtained through the removal of the PS phase by calcination at 500 °C. The porosity of the Au supraparticles was readily adjusted by varying the volumetric ratios of Au and PS nanoparticles. Six environmental contaminants (malachite green isothiocyanate, rhodamine B, benzenethiol, atrazine, adenine, and gene segment) were successfully adsorbed to the porous Au supraparticles, and their distinct SERS spectra were obtained. The observed linear dependence of the characteristic Raman peak intensity for each environmental contaminant on its aqueous concentration reveals the quantitative SERS detection capability by porous Au supraparticles. The limit of detection (LOD) for the six environmental contaminants ranged from ∼10 nM to ∼10 μM, which depends on analyte affinity to the porous Au supraparticles and analyte intrinsic Raman cross-sections. The porous Au supraparticles enabled multiplex SERS detection and maintained comparable SERS detection sensitivity in wastewater influent. Overall, we envision that the Au supraparticles can potentially serve as practical and sensitive SERS devices for environmental analysis applications.

Abstract
Detection and estimation of various biomolecular samples are often required in research and clinical laboratory applications. Present work demonstrates the functioning of a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate that has been obtained by drop-casting of citrate-reduced gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of average dimension of 23 nm on a bare blu-ray digital versatile disc (BR-DVD) substrate. The performance of the proposed SERS substrate has been initially evaluated with standard Raman active samples, namely malachite green (MG) and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (BPE). The designed SERS substrate yields an average enhancement factor of 3.2 × 106 while maintaining reproducibility characteristics as good as 94% over the sensing region of the substrate. The usability of the designed SERS substrate has been demonstrated through the detection and analysis of purified rotavirus double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) samples in the laboratory environment condition. Rotavirus RNA concentrations as low as 10 ng/μL could be detected with the proposed sensing scheme.

Abstract
DNA is a building block of life; surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been broadly applied in the detection of biomolecules but there are challenges in obtaining high-quality DNA SERS signals under non-destructive conditions. Here, we developed a novel label-free approach for DNA detection based on SERS, in which the Au@AgNPs core-shell structure was selected as the enhancement substrate, which not only solved the problem of the weak enhancement effect of gold nanoparticles but also overcame the disadvantage of the inhomogeneous shapes of silver nanoparticles, thereby improving the sensitivity and reproducibility of the SERS signals of DNA molecules. The method obtained SERS signals for four DNA bases (A, C, G, and T) without destroying the structure, then further detected and qualified different specific structures of DNA molecules. These results promote the application of SERS technology in the field of biomolecular detection.

Abstract
To sensitively detect multiple and cross-species disease-related targets from a single biological sample in a quick and reliable manner is of high importance in accurately diagnosing and monitoring diseases. Herein, a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor based on a functionalized multiple-armed tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (FMTDN) immobilized silver nanorod (AgNR) array substrate and Au nanoparticle (AuNP) SERS tags is constructed to achieve both multiplex detection and enhanced sensitivity using a sandwich strategy. The sensor can achieve single, dual, and triple biomarker detections of three lung cancer-related nucleic acid and protein biomarkers, i.e., miRNA-21, miRNA-486 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in human serum. The enhanced SERS signals in multiplex detections are due to the DNA self-assembled AuNP clusters on the silver nanorod array during the assay, and the experimentally obtained relative enhancement factor ratios, 150 for AuNP dimers and 840 for AuNP trimers, qualitatively agree with the numerically calculated local electric field enhancements. The proposed FMTDN-functionalized AgNR SERS sensor is capable of multiplex and cross-species detection of nucleic acid and protein biomarkers with improved sensitivity, which has great potential for the screening and clinical diagnosis of cancer in the early stage.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), as an important tool for interface research, occupies a place in the field of molecular detection and analysis due to its extremely high detection sensitivity and fingerprint characteristics. Substantial efforts have been put into the improvement of the enhancement factor (EF) by way of modifying SERS substrates. Recently, MoS2 has emerged as one of the most promising substrates for SERS, which is also exploited as a complementary platform on the conventional metal SERS substrates to optimize the properties. In this minireview, the fundamentals of MoS2-related SERS are first explicated. Then, the synthesis, advances and applications of MoS2-based substrates are illustrated with special emphasis on their practical applications in food safety, biomedical sensing and environmental monitoring, together with the corresponding challenges. This review is expected to arouse broad interest in nonplasmonic MoS2-related materials along with their mechanisms, and to promote the development of SERS studies.

Abstract
With the emergence of microRNA (miRNA) as a key player in early clinical disease diagnosis, development of rapidly sensitive and quantitative miRNA detection methods are imperative. Herein, a label-free SERS assay coupled with duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) signal amplification strategy was proposed for facilely ultrasensitive and quantitative analysis of miRNA-21. Firstly, magnetic beads assembled with excessive capture DNA were utilized to hybridize the target miRNA-21. These DNA-RNA heteroduplexes were cleaved by DSN to generate small nucleotide fragments into the supernatant and the miRNA-21 released and rehybridized another DNA, going to the next DSN cycle. Consequently, numerous of small nucleotide fragments of capture DNA were released from magnetic beads and the miRNA-21 signal was transferred and amplified by the SERS signals of total phosphate backbones which are abundant in nucleotide. Furthermore, iodide-modified Ag nanoparticles (AgINPs) was employed to generate a strong and reproducible SERS signal. The proposed method displayed excellent performance for miRNA-21 detection with the linear range from 0.33 fM to 3.3 pM, and a lower detection limit of 42 aM. Moreover, this strategy exhibited effectively base discrimination capability and was successfully applied for monitoring the expression levels of miRNA-21 in different cancer cell lines and human serum.

Abstract
Characterization of DNA at solid/liquid interfaces remains a challenge because most surface-sensitive techniques are unable to provide quantitative insight into the base content, length, or structure. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering measurements of DNA hybridization on plasmonic-metal substrates have been used to overcome small Raman-scattering cross-sections; however, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy measurements are not generally quantitative due to the fall-off in the scattering signal with the decay of the electric field enhancement from the surface, which also limits the length of oligonucleotides that can be investigated. In this work, we introduce an experimental methodology in which confocal Raman microscopy is used to characterize hybridization reactions of ssDNA immobilized at the solid/liquid interface of porous silica particles. By focusing the femtoliter confocal probe volume within a single porous particle, signal enhancement arises from the ∼1500-times greater surface area detected compared to a planar substrate. Because the porous support is a purely dielectric material, the scattering signal is independent of the proximity of the oligonucleotide to the silica surface. With this technique, we characterize a 19-mer capture strand and determine its hybridization efficiency with 9-mer and 16-mer target sequences from the scattering of a structurally insensitive phosphate-stretching mode. Changes in polarizability and frequency of scattering from DNA bases were observed, which are consistent with Watson-Crick base pairing. Quantification of base content from their duplex scattering intensities allows us to discriminate between hybridization of two target strands of equivalent length but with different recognition sequences. A duplex having a single-nucleotide polymorphism could be distinguished from hybridization of a fully complementary strand based on differences in base content and duplex conformation.

Abstract
Direct surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has contributed to characterizing extracellular vesicles (EVs) by providing molecular signatures. However, little work has been carried out to understand the heterogeneity of EVs created by different methods or from different biological sources. Herein, we pioneered the use of positively charged gold-silver nanostars to explore the SERS profiles of different EVs. The physical features of EVs from cancer cells including the size, concentration, morphology and surface potential have been characterized via nanoparticle tracking analysis, transmission electron microscopy and zeta potential analysis. The results show that negatively charged EVs are attracted to positively charged gold-silver nanostar surfaces via electrostatic forces resulting in SERS spectra showing characteristic vibrational modes of the different components of EVs (i.e. proteins, lipids and nucleic acids). SERS data were complemented by other spectroscopic techniques including atomic force microscopy-infrared spectroscopy, UV-visible absorbance spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy providing a more complete molecular picture of EVs. SERS signatures of EVs from different origins, batches, and isolation approaches were compared and analyzed. A statistical method (principal component analysis-linear discriminant analysis) was utilized to differentiate EV subtypes. Consequently, a desirable discrimination outcome for blind samples was obtained. This study provides novel insights to deepen our understanding of EV heterogeneity.

Abstract
Development of a sensitive, rapid and easy-to-use liquid biopsy method is of imperative clinical value for point-of-care caner diagnostics. Here, a label-free and modification-free nanotechnology based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) was employed for DNA analysis. Using the SERS signals of phosphate backbone as internal standard, quantitative detection for nucleobases was achieved even at single base level. The method combined with principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis was further applied for real blood circulating DNA detection for the first time, and an ideal diagnostic sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 82.5% could be obtained for differentiating the nasopharyngeal cancer from the normal group, demonstrating promising potential as an alternative nanotechnology for nasopharyngeal cancer screening based on liquid biopsy.

Abstract
Advances in precision medicine require high-throughput, inexpensive, point-of-care diagnostic methods with multiomics capability for detecting a wide range of biomolecules and their molecular variants. Optical techniques have offered many promising advances toward such diagnostics. However, the inability to squeeze light with several hundred nanometer wavelengths into angstrom-scale volume for single-nucleotide measurements has hindered further progress. This limitation has been circumvented by analyzing the relative nucleobase content with Raman spectroscopy, in an optical sequencing method. Here, we performed optical sequencing measurements on positively charged silver nanoparticles to achieve 93.3% accuracy for predicting nucleobase content in label-free DNA k-mer blocks (where k = 10) as well as measurements on RNA and chemically modified nucleobases for extensions to transcriptomic and epigenetic studies. Our high-accuracy measurements were then used with a content-scoring database searching algorithm to correctly identify a β-lactamase gene from the MEGARes antibiotic resistance database and confirm the Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogen of origin from <12 block content measurements (<15% coverage) of the gene. These results prove the feasibility of an optical sequencing platform as a diagnostic method. With the versatile range of available plasmonic substrates offering simple data acquisition, varying resolution (single-molecule to the ensemble), and multiplexing, this optical sequencing platform has potential as the rapid, cost-effective method needed for broad-spectrum biomarker detection.

Abstract
A single, inexpensive diagnostic test capable of rapidly identifying a wide range of genetic biomarkers would prove invaluable in precision medicine. Previous work has demonstrated the potential for high-throughput, label-free detection of A-G-C-T content in DNA k-mers, providing an alternative to single-letter sequencing while also having inherent lossy data compression and massively parallel data acquisition. Here, we apply a new bioinformatics algorithm - block optical content scoring (BOCS) - capable of using the high-throughput content k-mers for rapid, broad-spectrum identification of genetic biomarkers. BOCS uses content-based sequence alignment for probabilistic mapping of k-mer contents to gene sequences within a biomarker database, resulting in a probability ranking of genes on a content score. Simulations of the BOCS algorithm reveal high accuracy for identification of single antibiotic resistance genes, even in the presence of significant sequencing errors (100% accuracy for no sequencing errors, and >90% accuracy for sequencing errors at 20%), and at well below full coverage of the genes. Simulations for detecting multiple resistance genes within a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strain showed 100% accuracy at an average gene coverage of merely 0.515, when the k-mer lengths were variable and with 4% sequencing error within the k-mer blocks. Extension of BOCS to cancer and other genetic diseases met or exceeded the results for resistance genes. Combined with a high-throughput content-based sequencing technique, the BOCS algorithm potentiates a test capable of rapid diagnosis and profiling of genetic biomarkers ranging from antibiotic resistance to cancer and other genetic diseases.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are evaporatively self-assembled into the 3D surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) hotspot matrix with the assistant of glycerol to improve the spectral reproducibility in direct DNA detection. AgNPs and DNA in the glycerol-stabilized 3D SERS hotspot matrix are found to form flexible sandwich structures through electrostatic interaction where neighboring AgNPs create uniform and homogeneous localized surface plasmon resonance coupling environments for central DNA. Nearly two orders of magnitude extra SERS enhancement, more stable peak frequency and narrower peak full width at half maximum can therefore be obtained in DNA SERS spectra, which ensures highly stable and reproducible SERS signals in direct detection of both single strand DNA and double strand DNA utilizing the 3D SERS hotspot matrix. By normalizing the SERS spectra using phosphate backbone as internal standard, identification of single base variation in oligonucleotides, determination of DNA hybridization events and recognition of chemical modification on bases (hexanethiol-capped at 5' end) have been demonstrated experimentally. This proposed 3D SERS hotspot matrix opens a novel perspective in manipulating plasmonic nanoparticles to construct SERS platforms and would make the surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy a more practical and reliable tool in direct DNA detection.

Abstract
A noninvasive, highly sensitive universal immunosensor platform for protein-based biomarker detection is described in this Article. A neutral charged sensing environment is constructed by an antibody with an oppositely charged amino acid as surface charge neutralizer. By adjusting the pH condition of the testing environment, this neutral charged immunosensor (NCI) directly utilizes the electrostatic charges of the analyte for quantification of circulating protein markers, achieving a wide dynamic range covering through the whole picomole level. Comparing with previous studies on electrostatic charges characterization, this NCI demonstrates its capability to analyze not only the negatively charged biomolecules but also positively charged analytes. We applied this NCI for the detection of HE4 antigen with a detection limit at 2.5 pM and Tau antigen with a detection limit at 0.968 pM, demonstrating the high-sensitivity property of this platform. Furthermore, this NCI possesses a simple fabrication method (less than 2 h) and a short testing turnaround time (less than 30 min), providing an excellent potential for further clinical point-of-care applications.

Abstract
Nanoparticle surface coatings dictate their fate, transport, and bioavailability. We used a gold nanoparticle-bacterial cellulose substrate and "hot spot"-normalized surface-enhanced Raman scattering (HSNSERS) to achieve in situ and real-time monitoring of ligand exchange reactions on the gold surface. This approach enables semiquantitative determination of citrate surface coverage. Following exposure of the citrate-coated nanoparticles to a suite of guest ligands (thiolates, amines, carboxylates, inorganic ions, and proteins), the guest ligand signal exhibited first-order growth kinetics, while the desorption mediated decay of the citrate signal followed a first-order model. Guest ligand functional group chemistry dictated the kinetics of citrate desorption, while the guest ligand concentration played only a minor role. Thiolates and BSA were more efficient at ligand exchange than amine-containing chemicals, carboxylate-containing chemicals, and inorganic salts due to their higher binding energies with the AuNP surface. Amine-containing molecules overcoated rather than displaced the citrate layer via electrostatic interaction. Citrate exhibited low resistance to replacement at high surface coverages, but higher resistance at lower coverage, thus suggesting a transformation of the citrate-binding mode during desorption. High resistance to replacement in streamwater suggests that the role of surface-adsorbed citrate in nanomaterial fate and transport must be better understood.

Abstract
Along with the rapid development of micro/nanofabrication technology, the past few decades have seen the flourishing emergence of subwavelength-structured materials and interfaces for optical field engineering at the nanoscale. Three remarkable properties associated with these subwavelength-structured materials are the squeezed optical fields beyond the diffraction limit, gradient optical fields in the subwavelength scale, and enhanced optical fields that are orders of magnitude greater than the incident field. These engineered optical fields have inspired fundamental and practical advances in both engineering optics and modern chemistry. The first property is the basis of sub-diffraction-limited imaging, lithography, and dense data storage. The second property has led to the emergence of a couple of thin and planar functional optical devices with a reduced footprint. The third one causes enhanced radiation (e.g., fluorescence), scattering (e.g., Raman scattering), and absorption (e.g., infrared absorption and circular dichroism), offering a unique platform for single-molecule-level biochemical sensing, and high-efficiency chemical reaction and energy conversion. In this review, we summarize recent advances in subwavelength-structured materials that bear extraordinary squeezed, gradient, and enhanced optical fields, with a particular emphasis on their optical and chemical applications. Finally, challenges and outlooks in this promising field are discussed.

Abstract
Combined separation and detection of biomolecules has the potential to speed up and improve the sensitivity of disease detection, environmental testing, and biomolecular analysis. In this work, we synthesized magnetic particles coated with spiky nanostructured gold shells and used them to magnetically separate out and detect oligonucleotides using SERS. The distance dependence of the SERS signal was then harnessed to detect DNA hybridization using a Raman label bound to a hairpin probe. The distance of the Raman label from the surface increased upon complementary DNA hybridization, leading to a decrease in signal intensity. This work demonstrates the use of the particles for combined separation and detection of oligonucleotides without the use of an extrinsic tag or secondary hybridization step.

Abstract
We demonstrated flower-like 3D Ag-Au hetero-nanostructures on an indium tin oxide glass (ITO glass) for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) applications. The flower-like 3D Ag nanostructures were obtained through electrodeposition with liquid crystalline soft template which is simple, controllable and cost effective. The flower-like 3D Ag-Au hetero-nanostructures were further fabricated by galvanic replacement reaction of gold (III) chloride trihydrate (HAuCl4·3H2O) solution and flower-like Ag. The flower-like Ag-Au hetero-nanostructure exhibited stronger SERS effects and better chemical stability compared with flower-like Ag nanostructure. The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectra, field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) photos and Ag-Au ratios were studied which show that the surface morphology and shape of the flower-like Ag-Au hetero-nanostructure play significant roles in enhancing SERS. The flower-like 3D Ag-Au hetero-nanostructures fabricated by electrodeposition in liquid crystalline template and galvanic replacement reaction are simple, cheap, controllable and chemical stable. It is a good candidate for applications in SERS detection and imaging.

Abstract
Optical techniques for molecular diagnostics or DNA sequencing generally rely on small molecule fluorescent labels, which utilize light with a wavelength of several hundred nanometers for detection. Developing a label-free optical DNA sequencing technique will require nanoscale focusing of light, a high-throughput and multiplexed identification method, and a data compression technique to rapidly identify sequences and analyze genomic heterogeneity for big datasets. Such a method should identify characteristic molecular vibrations using optical spectroscopy, especially in the "fingerprinting region" from ≈400-1400 cm-1 . Here, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy is used to demonstrate label-free identification of DNA nucleobases with multiplexed 3D plasmonic nanofocusing. While nanometer-scale mode volumes prevent identification of single nucleobases within a DNA sequence, the block optical technique can identify A, T, G, and C content in DNA k-mers. The content of each nucleotide in a DNA block can be a unique and high-throughput method for identifying sequences, genes, and other biomarkers as an alternative to single-letter sequencing. Additionally, coupling two complementary vibrational spectroscopy techniques (infrared and Raman) can improve block characterization. These results pave the way for developing a novel, high-throughput block optical sequencing method with lossy genomic data compression using k-mer identification from multiplexed optical data acquisition.

Abstract
Rapid and sensitive methods to detect DNA lesions are essential in order to understand their role in carcinogenesis and for potential diagnosis of cancers. The 8-nitroguanine DNA lesion, which is closely associated with inflammation-induced cancers, has been characterized for the first time by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). This lesion has been studied as the free base, as well as part of a dinucleotide and oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) at 5 different excitation wavelengths in the range 785-488 nm. All nitrated samples produced distinctly different spectra from their control guanine counterparts, with nitro bands being assigned by DFT calculations. Additional resonance enhancement was observed at the shorter excitation wavelengths, these SERRS measurements allowed the detection of one nitrated guanine in over 1,300 bases. In addition, SER(R)S can be used to detect whether the unstable lesion is covalently attached to the ODN or has been released by hydrolytic depurination.

Detection of EGFR mutation in plasma using multiplex allele-specific PCR (MAS-PCR) and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Sci Rep 2017; 7:4771.

Abstract
In this study, surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) in combination with multiplexed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was utilized to detect mutations of exons 19 and 21 of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene. Through the use of multiplexed PCR, the two mutation types were amplified in a single reaction. SERS was used on the PCR products to detect mutations. DNA mixtures with increasing mutation percentages showed good linear relationship between mutation rates and peak height. Then, this PCR-SERS method was used on the plasma of 48 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to detect EGFR mutations. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed that the peak height ratios were significant for identifying different mutation types. The specificity, sensitivity and accuracy obtained were all 100%. The proposed method was then validated through comparison with high resolution melting (HRM) and showed high concordance with HRM (Pearson correlation is 0.92). Finally, logistic regression was performed on EGFR mutation status and the clinical features of the 48 patients. Our study indicates that PCR-SERS is an effective, noninvasive, and economical method for the detection and monitoring of EGFR mutations in the plasma of patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
Simple nucleic acid detection methods could facilitate the progress of disease diagnostics for clinical uses. An attractive strategy is label-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) due to its capability of providing structural fingerprinting of analytes that are close to or on nanomaterial surfaces. However, current label-free SERS approaches for DNA/RNA biomarker detection are limited to short and synthetic nucleic acid targets and have not been fully realized in clinical samples due to two possible reasons: (i) low target copies in limited patient samples and (ii) poor capability in identifying specific biomarkers from complex samples. To resolve these limitations and enable label-free SERS for clinical applications, we herein present a novel strategy based on multiplex reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) to enrich multiple RNA biomarkers, followed by label-free SERS with multivariate statistical analysis to directly detect, identify and distinguish between these long amplicons (∼200 bp). As a proof-of-concept clinical demonstration, we employed this strategy for non-invasive subtyping of prostate cancer (PCa). In a training cohort of 43 patient urinary samples, we achieved 93.0% specificity, 95.3% sensitivity, and 94.2% accuracy. We believe that our proposed assay could pave the way for simple and direct label-free SERS detection of multiple long nucleic acid sequences in patient samples, and thus facilitate rapid cancer molecular subtyping for personalized therapies.

Abstract
Detection of nucleic acid and protein targets related to human health and safety has attracted widespread attention. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful tool for biomarker detection because of its ultrahigh detection sensitivity and unique fingerprinting spectra. In this review, we first introduce the development of nanostructure-based SERS-active substrates and SERS nanotags, which greatly influence the performance of SERS biosensors. We then focus on recent advances in SERS biosensors for DNA, microRNA and protein determination, including label-free, labeled and multiplex analyses as well as in vivo imaging. Finally, the prospects and challenges of such nanostructure-based SERS biosensors are discussed.
