Abstract
Scientific studies have demonstrated that conjugates of anticancer drugs with metal nanoparticles (MeNPs) lead to a more effective deactivation of tumor cells compared to free drugs. Similarly, it has been established that conjugates of antibiotics with MeNPs exhibit higher biocidal activity against bacteria than their unbound counterparts. However, limited information is available regarding conjugates formed from drugs other than anticancer and antibiotics. Therefore, our research aims to develop synthesis methods for conjugates of chlorpromazine (CPZ), a neuroleptic, with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). CPZ-AuNP conjugates were prepared through a ligand exchange reaction conducted on the surface of quasi-spherical, negatively charged citrate-stabilized TC-AuNPs with an average size of 55 ± 5 nm. UV-vis spectroscopy was employed to determine the stability range of the conjugates under controlled conditions of pH and ionic strength. Based on electrokinetic measurements, it was observed that the zeta potential of CPZ-AuNP conjugates strongly depends on the amount of CPZ adsorbed on the TC-AuNP surface. Additionally, the conjugates exhibited an isoelectric point at pH 8.8. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRA) were employed to elucidate the adsorption structure of CPZ on TC-AuNPs. The interpretation of the spectra was conducted based on the Raman and FTIR spectra of CPZ, along with calculations performed using Density Functional Theory (DFT). The results indicated that CPZ primarily interacts with the TC-AuNP surface through the angularly oriented phenothiazine ring and the propylene bridge. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the C-N-C fragment is perpendicular to the surface of the TC-AuNP with which it interacts. The findings from this analysis suggest the potential for further research on the use of these conjugates in biomedical applications.

Abstract
This study focuses on the adsorption process of L-cysteine (Cys), a sulfur-containing amino acid, onto monolayers of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) prepared through distinct protocols on mica substrates. Two types of AuNPs were prepared using two different methods: the first employed a physical approach, which combined the Inert Gas Condensation (IGC) technique with the magnetron sputtering method, while the second utilized a chemical method involving the reduction of tetrachloroauric acid with trisodium citrate (TC). The characterization of AuNPs was performed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), of up to 5 ± 1.3 nm for bare AuNPs obtained through vacuum techniques, and up to 12 ± 5 nm for negatively charged, citrate-stabilized TCAuNPs(-). The application of spectroscopic techniques based on the surface-enhanced effects allows for describing the adsorption process in both micro- and nanoscale systems: Cys/bare AuNPs and Cys/ TCAuNPs(-). The commonly used surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technique provided insights into adsorption behaviours at the microscale level. In the case of TCAuNPs(-), an interaction involving the lone electron pair of sulfur (S) atom and metal surface, while on the bare AuNPs, S is adsorbed on the surface, but the cleavage of the SH group is not discernible. Nanoscale analysis was complemented using AFM combined with the surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (AFM-SEIRA) technique. AFM-SEIRA map indicated the formation of hot spot which were predominantly located between aggregated TCAuNPs(-) and on specific NPs surfaces (area between NPs and gold-coated tip). Results from the SERS and AFM-SEIRA techniques were in good agreement, underscoring the comprehensive understanding achieved through the chosen experimental approach regarding the Cys interactions with layers of AuNPs.

Abstract
The design and preparation of various effective three-dimensional (3D) silver nanostructures is a frontier area of research in the field of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). This paper demonstrates a simple and novel method for the preparation of a substrate, whose surface was covered by a 3D interconnected network of Ag nanostructures, and the resulting network structure surface is free of organic contaminants. The EDS measurements confirm the metallic nature of the formed 3D Ag nanonetwork substrate. Additionally, the influence of experimental parameters on the morphology of the 3D Ag nanonetwork was also investigated, such as reaction time, hydrofluoric acid concentration, silver nitrate concentration and sodium citrate concentration. The 3D Ag nanonetwork has good uniformity. Importantly, the 3D Ag nanonetwork substrate was used to accurately and reliably detect amaranth (AR) and sunset yellow (SY) in beverages, with the lowest detection limit of 3 and 0.1 μg L-1, respectively. Therefore, this substrate is expected to be a promising candidate for SERS detection and offers attractive potential for a wider range of applications.

Abstract
Small plastic particles such as micro- (<5 mm), sub-micro- (1 µm-100 nm) and nanoplastics (<100 nm) are known to be ubiquitous within our surrounding environment. However, to date relatively few methods exist for the reliable detection of nanoplastic particles in relevant sample matrices such as foods or environmental samples. This lack of relevant data is likely a result of key limitations (e.g., resolution and/or scattering efficiency) for common analytical techniques such as Fourier transform infrared or Raman spectroscopy. This study aims to address this knowledge gap in the field through the creation of surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy substrates utilizing spherical gold nanoparticles with 14 nm and 46 nm diameters to improve the scattering signal obtained during Raman spectroscopy measurements. The substrates are then used to analyze polystyrene particles with sizes of 161 nm or 33 nm and poly(ethylene terephthalate) particles with an average size of 62 nm. Through this technique, plastic particles could be detected at concentrations as low as 10 µg/mL, and analytical enhancement factors of up to 446 were achieved.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have been widely utilized to develop various biosensors for molecular diagnosis, as they can be easily functionalized and exhibit unique optical properties explained by plasmonic effects. These unique optical properties of GNPs allow the expression of an intense color under light that can be tuned by altering their size, shape, composition, and coupling with other plasmonic nanoparticles. Additionally, they can also enhance other optical signals, such as fluorescence and Raman scattering, making them suitable for biosensor development. In this review, we provide a detailed discussion of the currently developed biosensors based on the aforementioned unique optical features of GNPs. Mainly, we focus on four different plasmonic biosensing methods, including localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), fluorescence enhancement, and quenching caused by plasmon and colorimetry changes based on the coupling of GNPs. We believe that the topics discussed here are useful and able to provide a guideline in the development of novel GNP-based biosensors in the future.

Abstract
The deposition kinetics of graphene oxide (GO) onto poly(ethylene imine) (PEI) layer was characterized in situ with pulsed streaming potential (SP) measurement, and it was found that the initial rate constant (ki) was dependent on the size of GO with same surface charge density at a fixed concentration under controlled experimental conditions. Assuming the deposition was controlled by diffusion at the initial stage, ki is proportional to Rh-2/3, where Rh is the hydrodynamic radius. By flushing a GO solution through a capillary coated with PEI, the initial change rate of relative SP (dEr/dt) was obtained in 20 s and ki was measured with five different concentrations in about 2 min. Three GO samples of different sizes obtained from the same batch of raw material were characterized with pulsed SP to get ki values, and their sizes were verified with atomic force microscopy and dynamic light scattering. The experimental results are consistent with the predicted effects of the size of NPs on their deposition kinetics.
