PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 319:124523.

Abstract
Plasmon-driven reactions on plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) occur under significantly different conditions from those of classical organic synthesis and provide a promising pathway for enhancing the efficiency of various chemical processes. However, these reactions can also have undesirable effects, such as 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) deboronation. MPBA chemisorbs well to Ag NPs through its thiol group and can subsequently bind to diols, enabling the detection of various biological structures by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), but not upon its deboronation. To avoid this reaction, we investigated the experimental conditions of MPBA deboronation on Ag NPs by SERS. Our results showed that the level of deboronation strongly depends on both the morphology of the system and the excitation laser wavelength and power. In addition, we detected not only the expected products, namely thiophenol and biphenyl-4,4-dithiol, but also 4-nitrothiophenol (NTP). The crucial reagent for NTP formation was an oxidation product of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, the reduction agent used in Ag NP synthesis. Ultimately, this reaction was replicated by adding NaNO2 to the system, and its progress was monitored as a function of the laser power, thereby identifying a new reaction of plasmon-driven -B(OH)2 substitution for -NO2.

Abstract
Diabetes is a major global health concern, with millions of annual deaths. Monitoring glucose levels is vital for clinical management, and urine samples offer a noninvasive alternative to blood samples. Optical techniques for urine glucose sensing have gained notable traction due to their cost-effectiveness and portability. Among these methods, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has attracted considerable attention thanks to its remarkable sensitivity and multiplexing capabilities. However, challenges remain in achieving reliable quantification through SERS. In this study, an alternative approach is proposed to enhance quantification involving the use of dual probes. Each probe is encoded with unique SERS signatures strategically positioned in the biologically silent region. One probe indicates the glucose presence, while the other acts as an internal reference for calibration. This setup enables ratiometric analysis of the SERS signal, directly correlating it with the glucose concentration. The fabrication of the sensor relies on the prefunctionalization of Fe sheets using an aryl diazonium salt bearing a -C≡CH group (internal reference), followed by the immobilization of Ag nanoparticles modified with an aryl diazonium salt bearing a -B(OH)2 group (for glucose capture). A secondary probe bearing a -B(OH)2 group on one side and a -C≡N group on the other side enables the ratiometric analysis by forming a sandwich-like structure in the presence of glucose (glucose indicator). Validation studies in aqueous solutions and artificial urine demonstrated the high spectral stability and the potential of this dual-probe nanosensor for sensitive glucose monitoring in clinical settings.

Abstract
It is of great importance to have sensitive and accurate detection of cis-diol-containing biologically related substances because of their important functions in the research fields of metabolomics, glycomics, and proteomics. Boronic acids can specifically and reversibly interact with 1,2- or 1,3-diols to form five or six cyclic esters. Based on this unique property, boronic acid-based materials have been used as synthetic receptors for the specific recognition and detection of cis-diol-containing species. This review critically summarizes the recent advances with boronic acid-based materials as recognition elements and signal labels for the detection of cis-diol-containing biological species, including ribonucleic acids, glycans, glycoproteins, bacteria, exosomes, and tumor cells. We also address the challenges and future perspectives for developing versatile boronic acid-based materials with various promising applications.

Abstract
Graphene has remarkable characteristics that make it a potential candidate for optoelectronics and electronics applications. Graphene is a sensitive material that reacts to any physical variation in its environment. Due to its extremely low intrinsic electrical noise, graphene can detect even a single molecule in its proximity. This feature makes graphene a potential candidate for identifying a wide range of organic and inorganic compounds. Graphene and its derivatives are considered one of the best materials to detect sugar molecules due to their electronic properties. Graphene has low intrinsic noise, making it an ideal membrane for detecting low concentrations of sugar molecules. In this work, a graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (GNR-FET) is designed and utilized to identify sugar molecules such as fructose, xylose, and glucose. The variation in the current of the GNR-FET in the presence of each of the sugar molecules is utilized as the detection signal. The designed GNR-FET shows a clear change in the device density of states, transmission spectrum, and current in the presence of each of the sugar molecules. The simulated sensor is made of a pair of metallic zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNR) joint via a channel of armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR) and a gate. The Quantumwise Atomistix Toolkit (ATK) is used to design and conduct the nanoscale simulations of the GNR-FET. Semi-empirical modeling, along with non-equilibrium Green's functional theory (SE + NEGF), is used to develop and study the designed sensor. This article suggests that the designed GNR transistor has the potential to identify each of the sugar molecules in real time with high accuracy.

Abstract
The accurate detection of fructose in human urine can help prevent and screen for diseases such as fructokinase deficiency and hereditary fructose intolerance. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an analytical technique with selectivity and high sensitivity, which has been widely applied to the detection of targets with complex backgrounds. In this work, 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA) was modified on the surface of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) under mild conditions to obtain a boronic acid-functionalized SERS substrate for the detection of fructose in artificial urine. The detection mechanism was based on the deboronization reaction of 4-MPBA on the surface of AgNPs, which was induced by fructose, and the Raman signal of the generated thiophenol (TP) molecules was significantly enhanced by the silver nanoparticles, with a linear increase in SERS peak intensity at 1570 cm-1. We achieved the detection limits of 0.084 µmol/L in water and 0.535 µmol/L in urine by this method. The relative standard deviation (RSD) in the recovery experiments of urine ranged from 1.01 % to 2.22 %, and the whole detection time was less than 10 min, which indicated that this method is highly reliable for fructose detection and has a good prospect in bioassay and clinical medicine.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is central to metabolism and implicated in various diseases. Herein, nanohybrids of gold nanostars and metal-organic frameworks are devised and demonstrated as a dual-mode NADH sensor, for which colorimetric detection is enabled by its peroxidase-like nanozyme property and Raman detection is realized by its surface-enhanced Raman scattering property with the detection limit as low as 28 pM. More importantly, this probe enables real-time SERS monitoring in living cells, providing a unique tool to investigate dynamic cellular processes involving NADH. Our experiments reveal that metabolism dynamics is accelerated by glucose and is much higher in cancerous cells. The SERS results can also be verified by the colorimetric detection. This sensor provides a new potential to detect biomarkers and their dynamics in situ.

Abstract
A stimuli-responsive (pH- and thermoresponsive) micelle-forming diblock copolymer, poly(1,2-butadiene)290-block-poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate)240 (PB-b-PDMAEMA), was used as a polymer template for the in situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through Ag+ complexation with PDMAEMA blocks, followed by the reduction of the bound Ag+ with sodium borohydride. A successful synthesis of the AgNPs on a PB-b-PDMAEMA micellar template was confirmed by means of UV–Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy, wherein the shape and size of the AgNPs were determined. A phase transition of the polymer matrix in the AgNPs/PB-b-PDMAEMA metallopolymer hybrids, which results from a collapse and aggregation of PDMAEMA blocks, was manifested by changes in the transmittance of their aqueous solutions as a function of temperature. A SERS reporting probe, 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA), was used to demonstrate a laser-induced enhancement of the SERS signal observed under constant laser irradiation. The local heating of the AgNPs/PB-b-PDMAEMA sample in the laser spot is thought to be responsible for the triggered SERS effect, which is caused by the approaching of AgNPs and the generation of “hot spots” under a thermo-induced collapse and the aggregation of the PDMAEMA blocks of the polymer matrix. The triggered SERS effect depends on the time of a laser exposure and on the concentration of 4-MPBA. Possible mechanisms of the laser-induced heating for the AgNPs/PB-b-PDMAEMA metallopolymer hybrids are discussed.

Abstract
Diabetes has become one of the three chronic non-communicable diseases threatening human health in the world, and the detection of glucose concentration is of great importance for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. The noninvasive detection of glucose in tears has attracted interest over the past several decades, however, time-consuming, expensive equipment, and specialist technicians make tear analysis still challenging. Here, flexible surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates composed of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and two-dimensional MXene Ti3C2TX nanosheets have been designed. The GMXeP (gold nanoparticles with MXene nanosheets loaded on paper) SERS substrates show good sensitivity, reproducibility, and stability, yielding an enhancement factor (EF) of 3.7 × 105 at the concentration of 10-9 M. The GMXeP SERS substrates are used to detect glucose of diabetic tears within a linear range of 1-50 μM, the lowest detection concentration is 0.39 μM and the significant correlation between tear glucose and blood glucose indicates that this method is suitable for sensitive and noninvasive detection of blood glucose.

Abstract
Two-photon carbon-based nanoprobes hold great potential for biomedical applications as a result of their advantages of low fluorescence background, deep tissue imaging penetration and enhanced spatial resolution. However, the development of an activatable two-photon fluorescence carbon-based nanoprobe that simultaneously has the ability to target desired organs or cells is highly desired but remained a largely unsolved challenge. Herein, we developed boronate affinity BCNP@MnO2 nanocomposites, constructed by one step in situ growth of MnO2 nanosheets on the surface of aminophenylboronic acid-functionalized CNPs (BCNPs) via a redox reaction, which can feature efficient fluorescence energy transfer quenching to the BCNPs, allowing for tumor-specific affinity recognition and two-photon fluorescence activation imaging. By utilizing the inherent two-photon optical properties and sialic acid (SA) specific targeting ability of the BCNPs, good biocompatibility of the nanocomposites as well as highly sensitive and selective responses of MnO2 nanosheets towards GSH, the developed nanocomposites have demonstrated specific two-photon fluorescence activation imaging in target cancer cells and nude mouse tissues. Therefore, our proposed novel strategy could be used for monitoring GSH-triggered two-photon fluorescence activation events in SA-overexpressed cancer cells and has promising applications in both biological exploration and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
The multivariate curve resolution-alternative least squares (MCR-ALS) algorithm was modified with sample insertion constraint to deconvolute the overlapping peaks in SERS spectra. The developed method was evaluated by the spectral data simulated using a Gaussian distribution function to generate two independent peaks corresponding to a capping agent and an analyte. The spectra were generated with different overlapping levels and various intensity ratios of the analyte to the capping agent. By using MCR-ALS with the sample insertion constraint, the peak of the capping agent was completely excluded to obtain a calibration model of the analyte with R2 > 0.95 under all conditions. Furthermore, our developed method was later applied to a real SERS measurement to quantify carbofuran (analyte) using the azo-coupling reaction with p-ATP (capping agent) on silver nanoparticles as a SERS substrate. A calibration model of derivative carbofuran phenol was generated with R2 = 0.99 and LOD = 28.19 ppm. To assess the performance of the calibration model, the model was used to estimate the concentration of carbofuran in an external validation set. It was found that the RMSE of prediction was only 2.109 with a promising R2 = 0.97.

Abstract
Bacteria, especially antibiotic-resistant bacteria, in water threaten public health in countries. Simultaneous flocculation, sterilization and identification of bacteria are great challenge in water treatment. Herein we presented a three-in-one compound through combining a novel Bacitracin-based flocculant (B-g-PAMDAC) and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) labels, the modified Au@AgNPs using graphene oxide (GO) and 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA). B-g-PAMDAC with bactericidal groups and microblock structure was synthesized via copolymerization and self-assembly. Its functional groups and microblock structure contributed to the excellent performance in flocculation of bacteria. 4-MPBA as bacterial capture bound to the bacterial cell membrane and contributed to recognition of bacteria in flocculation. Bacteria aggregating around Au@AgNPs resulted in abundant "hot spots" and strong Raman signals. SERS labels obviously improved the sensitivity, accuracy and stability of bacteria identification even at low bacterial concentration of 1 × 103 CFU mL-1. They presented distinct fingerprints of bacteria, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus and Enterococcus faecalis, in Raman mappings. Bacitracin improved sterilization efficiency of B-g-PAMDAC in four bacteria treatment in terms of sterilization rate and time. β-galactosidase and respiratory activity of bacteria revealed sterilization mechanism of B-g-PAMDAC that changed permeability of cell membrane before it reduced the respiration activity of bacteria and ruptured cell wall.

Abstract
A chemical imaging method to mass surveil bacteria cells among plant tissues in situ is reported. Bacteria cells were pre-labeled with 3-mercaptophenylboronic acid for complexation with gold nanoparticles. Surface-enhanced Raman spectra were collated en masse to generate panoramic chemical images of bacteria populations. The approach was successfully employed to study the distribution of mass bacteria populations directly on and in selected plant tissues. This study demonstrates the great potential with which SERS imaging can be utilized for the study of bacterial cells among complex matrices, in some ways that are superior to electron and fluorescent microscopies.

Abstract
The detection of carbohydrates in human body fluids is critical for disease diagnosis and healthy monitoring. Despite recent advances in glucose sensing, multiplex detection of different carbohydrates within a single assay that is capable of efficiently providing richer health information remains challenging. Herein, we report a versatile surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy-based platform for the quantitative detection of monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, and galactose) in one test using a displace-and-trap mechanism. Moreover, due to the use of multiple optical interference-free (1800-2200 cm-1) signal-independent Raman probes, the detection range of this platform (0.125-7 mg/dL) perfectly covers physiological concentrations, enabling the quantitative detection of glucose and galactose in clinical human saliva samples. This work provides a noninvasive and high-efficiency potential tool for the screening of clinical diabetes and other carbohydrate-related diseases.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is one of the main second messengers involved in signaling pathways controlling cell metabolism. During tumorigenesis H2O2 is generated on the extracellular space by membrane-associated NADPH oxidases and superoxide dismutase to stimulate cell proliferation and preservation of the transformed state. Accordingly, a characteristic feature of malignant cells is overproduction of H2O2 in the extracellular milieu and the subsequent absorption in the cytosol. Since the most significant gradients of endogenous extracellular H2O2 can be observed only in a very shallow region of the fluid in contact with the plasma membrane, we show here the use of a newly designed nanosensor anchored to the outer cell surface and capable of quantifying H2O2 at nanometer distance from the membrane proteins responsible for its production. This biosensor is built upon gold nanoparticles functionalized with a H2O2-sensitive boronate compound that is probed using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The highly localized information obtained on the cell surface by SERS analysis is combined with analytical methods of redox biology to estimate the associated levels of intracellular H2O2 responsible for cell signaling. The results obtained from A549 lung cancer cell line show localized spots on the cell surface at concentration up to 12 μM, associated to intracellular concentration up to 5.1 nM.

Abstract
Boronic acids are the key compounds in Suzuki coupling reactions and in the detection of monosaccharides. The C-B bond cleavage deboronation is an important side reaction that lowers the Suzuki coupling reaction yield and even disables saccharide detection. Here, we report that protodeboronation occurs for 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) within narrow nanogaps between gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and planar gold substrates. The irradiation of such nanoparticle-on-mirror (NPoM) systems at 785 nm drives the protodeboronation reaction to form benzenethiol (BT). Wavelength-dependence experiments, combined with dark-field single-particle scattering spectroscopy, reveal that excitation of the bonding dipole plasmon mode of the NPoM leads to the best efficiency. Among the excited plasmon decay pathways, the generation of hot charge carriers induces the protodeboronation of MPBA. The possibility of plasmonic thermal reactions is ruled out because external heating of the substrates does not cause the reaction to take place. A comparison of the reaction yield under ambient, Ar, and oxygen gas conditions reveals that hot charge carriers directly transfer to MPBA, which subsequently produces BT, but the presence of oxygen promotes the reaction by opening another hot-electron transfer channel. The protodeboronation reaction of MPBA is an important addition to the catalog of plasmon-driven chemical reactions, not only because the reaction is relevant to organic and analytical chemistry but also because it deepens our understanding of the hot carrier dynamics at the interface between plasmonic nanoparticles and molecules.

Abstract
It is challenging to fabricate plasmonic nanosensors on high-curvature surfaces with high sensitivity and reproducibility at low cost. Here, we report a facile and straightforward strategy, based on an in situ growth technique, for fabricating glass nanofibers covered by asymmetric gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with tunable morphologies and adjustable spacings, leading to much improved surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensitivity because of hotspots generated by the AuNP surface irregularities and adjacent AuNP coupling. First, nanosensors covered with uniform and well-dispersed citrate-capped spherical AuNPs were constructed using a polystyrene-b-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-P4VP, with 33 mol % P4VP content and 61 kg/mol total molecular weight) block copolymer brush-layer templating method, and then, the deposited AuNPs were grown to asymmetric AuNPs. AuNP morphologies and hence the optical characteristics of AuNP-covered glass nanofibers were easily controlled by the choice of experimental parameters, such as the growth time and growth solution composition. In particular, tunable AuNP average diameters between about 40 and 80 nm with AuNP spacings between about 50 and 1 nm were achieved within 15 min of growth. The SERS sensitivity of branched AuNP-covered nanofibers (3 min growth time) was demonstrated to be more than threefold more intense than that of the original spherical AuNP-covered nanofibers using a 633 nm laser. Finite-difference time-domain simulations were performed, showing that the electric field enhancement is highest for intermediate AuNP diameters. Furthermore, SERS applications of these nanosensors for H2O2 detection and pH sensing were demonstrated, offering appealing and promising candidates for real-time monitoring of extra/intracellular species in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Successful translation of laboratory-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platforms to clinical applications requires multiplex and ultratrace detection of small biomarker molecules from a complex biofluid. However, these biomarker molecules generally exhibit low Raman scattering cross sections and do not possess specific affinity to plasmonic nanoparticle surfaces, significantly increasing the challenge of detecting them at low concentrations. Herein, we demonstrate a "confine-and-capture" approach for multiplex detection of two families of urine metabolites correlated with miscarriage risks, 5β-pregnane-3α,20α-diol-3α-glucuronide and tetrahydrocortisone. To enhance SERS signals by 1012-fold, we use specific nanoscale surface chemistry for targeted metabolite capture from a complex urine matrix prior to confining them on a superhydrophobic SERS platform. We then apply chemometrics, including principal component analysis and partial least-squares regression, to convert molecular fingerprint information into quantifiable readouts. The whole screening procedure requires only 30 min, including urine pretreatment, sample drying on the SERS platform, SERS measurements, and chemometric analyses. These readouts correlate well with the pregnancy outcomes in a case-control study of 40 patients presenting threatened miscarriage symptoms.

Abstract
Abnormal physiological levels of sialic acid (SA) could be used to diagnosis cancer progression stages. In this work, we describe an enzyme-assist-interference-free strategy for Raman selective determination of SA in serum. First, we assemble gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) onto the indium tin oxide glass (ITO) to construct an ITO/Au two-dimension substrate. Through modification of 4-mercaptoboric acid (4-MPBA) onto the surface of ITO/Au, the SA response plate is prepared due to the reversible esterification bond. In this strategy, a sandwich structure is rationally designed as ITO/Au/4-MPBA/SA/4-MPBA/Au to enhance the Raman scattering. The Raman detection linear concentration of SA ranged from 2.5 × 10-7 to 1.5 × 10-6 M, and a limit of detection about 1.2 × 10-7 M could be achieved. Considering the presence of glucose (Glu) in physiological fluid, we introduce glucose oxidase to remove the interference from Glu and realize the accurate determination of SA. The proposed novel Raman rapid method provides an ultrasensitive and interference-free protocol for the early diagnosis of cancer.

Abstract
An innovative ratiometric surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor using a 4-mercaptoboric acid (4-MPBA)-modified silver nanoparticle-decorated silicon wafer (Si@Ag NPs chip) was proposed for the ultrasensitive determination of F- ions in aqueous solutions. The principle of sensing strategy is based on fluoride-induced structural symmetry breaking and charge redistribution of phenylboronic acid, leading to a band shift of the C-C stretching mode of 4-MPBA from 1589 to 1576 cm-1. Accordingly, a ratiometric signal of the area ratio (A1576/A1589) between the fluoride-bond MPBA molecules and unoccupied MPBA molecules can be used for the quantitative response of F- ions. In comparison with other SERS-based sensing methods, this ratiometric method can avoid a large error resulting from the inhomogeneity of substrates. Under the optimized analytical conditions, the proposed SERS sensor possesses a quick response to F- ions within 2 min and exhibits high selectivity for F- ions with the determination limit of 10-8 M, which is over 3 orders of magnitude lower than the World Health Organization (WHO) guideline value for F- ions in drinking water. Of particular significance, the present sensor features favorable recyclability, which preserves suitable reproducibility during 6-time cyclic determination of F- ions. The practical utility of this sensing system for the determination of F- ions was tested with real water and toothpaste samples, and the results demonstrate that this sensor shows high recoveries (90-110%). Given its simple principle and easy operation, the present silicon-based SERS sensor could serve as a promising sensor for various practical applications.

Abstract
The paper reports on the features and advantages of horizontally oriented flexible silicon nanowires (SiNWs) substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) applications. The novel SERS substrates are described in detail considering three main aspects. First, the key synthesis parameters for the flexible nanostructure SERS substrates were optimized. It is shown that fabrication temperature and metal-plating duration significantly influence the flexibility of the SiNWs and, consequently, determine the SERS enhancement. Second, it is demonstrated how the immersion in a liquid followed by drying results in the formation of SiNWs bundles influencing the surface morphology. The morphology changes were described by fractal dimension and lacunar analyses and correlated with the duration of Ag plating and SERS measurements. SERS examination showed the optimal intensity values for SiNWs thickness values of 60-100 nm. That is, when the flexibility of the self-assembly SiNWs allowed hot spots occurrence. Finally, the test with 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid showed excellent SERS performance of the flexible, horizontally oriented SiNWs in comparison with several other commercially available substrates.

Abstract
Nanocellulose is an abundant green resource that, owing to the larger surface area, length, and diameter of the fibers, can be used as a framework for loading Ag nanoparticles and serve as substrate for surface enhancement Raman scattering (SERS). These properties would cause the hydroxyl groups on the surface to adsorb the Ag ions and reduce them to Ag seed to form a load fulcrum. This paper presents a convenient and environmentally friendly method for the fabrication of silver-nanocellulose composites (NCF-Ag). A commonly used pesticide, carbendazim (CBZ), was used as a SERS probe to evaluate the properties of NCF-Ag. The results showed that NCF-Ag possesses good homogeneity, reproducibility, and stability. Additionally, CBZ was found to have a low limit of detection (LOD), i.e., 1.0 × 10−8 M, which indicates the possibility for trace analysis. Furthermore, it presents good linearity with R2 = 0.98 at 1007 and 1270 cm−1 in the range from 10−4~10−7 M CBZ.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease, and its management focuses on monitoring and lowering a patient's glucose level to prevent further complications. By tracking the glucose-induced shift in the surface-enhanced Raman-scattering (SERS) emission of mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA), we have demonstrated fast and continuous glucose sensing in the physiologically relevant range from 0.1 to 30 mM and verified the underlying mechanism using numerical simulations. Bonding of glucose to MPBA suppresses the "breathing" mode of MPBA at 1071 cm-1 and energizes the constrained-bending mode at 1084 cm-1, causing the dominant peak to shift from 1071 to 1084 cm-1. MPBA-glucose bonding is also reversible, allowing continuous tracking of ambient glucose concentrations, and the MPBA-coated substrates showed very stable performance over a 30 day period, making the approach promising for long-term continuous glucose monitoring. Using Raman-mode-constrained, miniaturized SERS implants, we also successfully demonstrated intraocular glucose measurements in six ex vivo rabbit eyes within ±0.5 mM of readings obtained using a commercial glucose sensor.

Kim C, Baek S, Ryu Y, Kim Y, Shin D, Lee CW, Park W, Urbas AM, Kang G, Kim K. Large-scale nanoporous metal-coated silica aerogels for high SERS effect improvement. Sci Rep 2018; 8:15144. [PMID: 30310142 PMCID: PMC6181977 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-33539-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2018] [Accepted: 10/01/2018] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
We investigate the optical properties and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) characteristics of metal-coated silica aerogels. Silica aerogels were fabricated by easily scalable sol-gel and supercritical drying processes. Metallic nanogaps were formed on the top surface of the nanoporous silica network by controlling the thickness of the metal layer. The optimized metallic nanogap structure enabled strong confinement of light inside the gaps, which is a suitable property for SERS effect. We experimentally evaluated the SERS enhancement factor with the use of benzenethiol as a probe molecule. The enhancement factor reached 7.9 × 107 when molecules were adsorbed on the surface of the 30 nm silver-coated aerogel. We also theoretically investigated the electric field distribution dependence on the structural geometry and substrate indices. On the basis of FDTD simulations, we concluded that the electric field was highly amplified in the vicinity of the target analyte owing to a combination of the aerogel's ultralow refractive index and the high-density metallic nanogaps. The aerogel substrate with metallic nanogaps shows great potential for use as an inexpensive, highly sensitive SERS platform to detect environmental and biological target molecules.

Abstract
A wide variety of biotic and abiotic stresses continually attack plants and animals, which adversely affect their growth, development, reproduction, and yield realization. To survive under stress conditions, highly sophisticated and efficient tolerance mechanisms have been evolved to adapt to stresses, which consist of the variation of effector molecules playing vital roles in physiological regulation. The development of a sensitive, facile, and rapid analytical methods for stress factors and effector molecules detection is significant for gaining deeper insight into the tolerance mechanisms. As a nondestructive analysis technique, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has unique advantages regarding its biosensing applications. It not only provides specific fingerprint spectra of the target molecules, conformation, and structure, but also has universal capacity for simultaneous detection and imaging of targets owing to the narrow width of the Raman vibrational bands. Herein, recent progress on biotic and abiotic stresses, tolerance mechanisms and effector molecules is summarized. Moreover, the development and promising future trends of SERS detection for stress-related substances combined with nanomaterials as substrates and SERS tags are discussed. This comprehensive and critical review might shed light on a new perspective for SERS applications.

Abstract
Biofluid analysis by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is usually hindered by nonspecific interferences. It is challenging to drive targeted molecules towards sensitive areas with specific capture and quantitative recognition in complex biofluids. Herein, a highly specific and quantitative SERS analyzer for small molecule dopamine (DA) in serum is demonstrated on a portable Raman device by virtue of a transducer of mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) and a site-directed decoration of plasmonic Ag dendrites on a superhydrophobic surface. Theoretical simulations of molecular vibrations and charge distributions demonstrate the predomination of Raman surface selection rules in molecular reorientation upon the binding of DA. This recognition event is translated into ratiometric changes in the spectral profile which evidences excellent capability on SERS quantitation. The rules can well distinguish DA from its common interferents including fructose, glucose, sucrose and ascorbic acid which all generate weak but completely opposite spectral changes. Moreover, benefitting from the wettability difference, the target DA in diluted serum can be specifically enriched on a transducer-capped Ag surface, and the adsorption of other interferences is resisted by superhydrophobic features. It paves a new way for labelling a single SERS tag to simultaneously realize the identification and quantification of small molecules in complex biological media.

Abstract
Bacterial sensing and inactivating is one of the key steps to prevent bacterial propagation and transfer. Here, using Ag nanoparticle-grafted tungsten oxide films (WO3/Ag), we developed a multifunctional platform that may act as a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy substrate for sensitively capturing and counting bacteria. Moreover, we demonstrated that the use of photon-triggered surface plasmon resonance of Ag on the WO3 surface resulted in a significantly improved photocatalytic activity under visible light (638 nm). The photogenerated reactive oxygen species have been shown to be efficient in the inactivation of bacteria, and the bacteria inactivation process could be monitored in situ by Raman spectroscopy. On the basis of the obtained Raman results and fluorescence measurements of green fluorescence protein expressing bacteria, the active species triggered by hot spots was demonstrated to account for broken cell walls. The bacterial cell contents subsequently leaked out, leading to cell degradation. Potentially, our work may provide a promising strategy for capturing and monitoring the bactericidal process at low concentration and, specifically, may help in the investigation of related inactivation approaches and mechanisms.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is capable of detecting a single molecule with high specificity and has become a promising technique for rapid chemical analysis of agricultural products and foods. With a deeper understanding of the SERS effect and advances in nanofabrication technology, SERS is now on the edge of going out of the laboratory and becoming a sophisticated analytical tool to fulfill various real-world tasks. This review focuses on the challenges that SERS has met in this progress, such as how to obtain a reliable SERS signal, improve the sensitivity and specificity in a complex sample matrix, develop simple and user-friendly practical sensing approach, reduce the running cost, etc. This review highlights the new thoughts on design and nanofabrication of SERS-active substrates for solving these challenges and introduces the recent advances of SERS applications in this area. We hope that our discussion will encourage more researches to address these challenges and eventually help to bring SERS technology out of the laboratory.

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
Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a gold standard procedure for assessing long term glycemic control in individuals with diabetes mellitus as it gives the stable and reliable value of blood glucose levels for a period of 90-120 days. HbA1c is formed by the non-enzymatic glycation of terminal valine of hemoglobin. The analysis of HbA1c tends to be complicated because there are more than 300 different assay methods for measuring HbA1c which leads to variations in reported values from same samples. Therefore, standardization of detection methods is recommended. The review outlines the current research activities on developing assays including biosensors for the detection of HbA1c. The pros and cons of different techniques for measuring HbA1c are outlined. The performance of current point-of-care HbA1c analyzers available on the market are also compared and discussed. The future perspectives for HbA1c detection and diabetes management are proposed.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) inherits the rich chemical fingerprint information on Raman spectroscopy and gains sensitivity by plasmon-enhanced excitation and scattering. In particular, most Raman peaks have a narrow width suitable for multiplex analysis, and the measurements can be conveniently made under ambient and aqueous conditions. These merits make SERS a very promising technique for studying complex biological systems, and SERS has attracted increasing interest in biorelated analysis. However, there are still great challenges that need to be addressed until it can be widely accepted by the biorelated communities, answer interesting biological questions, and solve fatal clinical problems. SERS applications in bioanalysis involve the complex interactions of plasmonic nanomaterials with biological systems and their environments. The reliability becomes the key issue of bioanalytical SERS in order to extract meaningful information from SERS data. This review provides a comprehensive overview of bioanalytical SERS with the main focus on the reliability issue. We first introduce the mechanism of SERS to guide the design of reliable SERS experiments with high detection sensitivity. We then introduce the current understanding of the interaction of nanomaterials with biological systems, mainly living cells, to guide the design of functionalized SERS nanoparticles for target detection. We further introduce the current status of label-free (direct) and labeled (indirect) SERS detections, for systems from biomolecules, to pathogens, to living cells, and we discuss the potential interferences from experimental design, measurement conditions, and data analysis. In the end, we give an outlook of the key challenges in bioanalytical SERS, including reproducibility, sensitivity, and spatial and time resolution.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman-scattering-based (SERS-based) biosensing in biological fluids is constrained by nonspecific macromolecule adsorptions and disposable property of the SERS substrate. Here, novel multi-Au-nanoparticle-embedded mesoporous silica microspheres (AuNPs/mSiO2) were prepared using a one-pot method, which served as reliable substrates for SERS enhancement associated with salient features of self-filtering ability and reusability. The fabrication and physical characterization of AuNPs/mSiO2 microspheres were discussed, and SERS activity of this novel substrate was investigated by using 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) as Raman probe. The responses of our substrates to Raman intensities exhibited a SERS enhancement factor of 2.01 × 107 and high reproducibility (relative standard deviation of 6.13%). Proof-of-concept experiments were designed to evaluate the self-filtering ability of the substrates in bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum solution, separately. The results clearly demonstrate that mesoporous SiO2 can serve as a molecular sieve via size exclusion and avoid Raman signal interference of biomacromolecules in biological fluids. Subsequently, feasibility of practical application of AuNPs/mSiO2 microspheres was assessed by quantitative detection of methotrexate (MTA) in serum. The method exhibited good linearity between 1 and 110 nM with the correlation coefficients of 0.996, which proved that the obtained AuNPs/mSiO2 microspheres were good SERS substrates for determination of small biomolecules directly in biological fluids without need of manipulating samples. In addition, the substrate maintained its SERS response during multiple cycles, which was evaluated by recording Raman signals for 4-MBA before and after thermal annealing, thereby demonstrating the high thermostability and satisfactory reusability. These results offered the AuNPs/mSiO2 microspheres attractive advantages in their SERS biosensing.

Abstract
We present a simple, robust, and automated molecule extraction technique based on a centrifugal microfluidic platform. Fast and facile extraction of a food adulterant (melamine) from a complex sample medium (milk) on a SERS substrate is demonstrated. The unique characteristic of the detection method is the obtained "filter paper/chromatographic" effect which combines centrifugal force and wetting properties of the SERS substrate. The work addresses issues related to SERS-based detection of analytes in complex media, which is important for realizing next generation SERS platforms applicable for a broad variety of real-life applications.

Abstract
Determination of specific target compounds in agriculture food and natural plant products is essential for many purposes; however, it is often challenging due to the complexity of the sample matrices. Herein we present a new approach called plasmonic affinity sandwich assay for the facile and rapid probing of glucose and fructose in plant tissues. The approach mainly relies on molecularly imprinted plasmonic extraction microprobes, which were prepared on gold-coated acupuncture needles via boronate affinity controllable oriented surface imprinting with the target monosaccharide as the template molecules. An extraction microprobe was inserted into plant tissues under investigation, which allowed for the specific extraction of glucose or fructose from the tissues. The glucose or fructose molecules extracted on the microprobe were labeled with boronic acid-functionalized Raman-active silver nanoparticles, and thus affinity sandwich complexes were formed on the microprobes. After excess Raman nanotags were washed away, the microprobe was subjected to Raman detection. Upon being irradiated with a laser beam, surface plasmon on the gold-coated microprobes was generated, which further produced plasmon-enhanced Raman scattering of the silver-based nanotags and thereby provided sensitive detection. Apple fruits, which contain abundant glucose and fructose, were used as a model of plant tissues. The approach exhibited high specificity, good sensitivity (limit of detection, 1 μg mL-1), and fast speed (the whole procedure required only 20 min). The spatial distribution profiles of glucose and fructose within an apple were investigated by the developed approach.
