Abstract
Owing to their nanoscale size and porous structure, both colloidal gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and nanoporous gold (NPG) have demonstrated good and stable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity, and are therefore widely used as SERS substrates for the rapid detection of various components in food, environmental, biological, and other samples. In this study, we fabricated a novel, sensitive, and reproducible composite three-dimensional (3D) substrate for rapid SERS-based detection of illegal additives in food products. AuNPs and NPGs were prepared by chemical reduction and chemical dealloying methods, with the particle size of AuNPs about 60 nm and the pore size of NPG in the range of 5-36 nm. The AuNPs were then assembled on the surface of NPG to form the composite substrate 3D-NPG/AuNPs, which was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and other methods. Finally, the new SERS substrate combined with a portable Raman spectrometer was used to detect the illegal food additives 6-benzylaminopurine and melamine, with detection limits of 1 × 10-9 M and 5 × 10-7 M respectively. We further analyzed the relationship between the dealloying time-controlled morphology and the SERS properties of NPG, demonstrating that 3D-NPG/AuNPs as a novel SERS substrate have strong practical application potential in the rapid detection of food additives and other substances.

Monosaccharide-mediated rational synthesis of a universal plasmonic platform with broad spectral fluorescence enhancement for high-sensitivity cancer biomarker analysis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Effective and accurate screening of oncological biomarkers in peripheral blood circulation plays an increasingly vital role in diagnosis and prognosis. High-sensitivity assays can effectively aid clinical decision-making and intervene in cancer in a localized status before they metastasize and become unmanageable. Meanwhile, it is equally pivotal to prevent overdiagnosis of non-life-threatening cancer by eliminating unnecessary treatment and repeated blood draws. Unfortunately, current clinical screening methodologies can hardly simultaneously attain sufficient sensitivity and specificity, especially under resource-restrained circumstances. To circumvent such limitations, particularly for cancer biomarkers from early-onset and recurrence, we aim to develop a universal plasmonic platform for clinical applications, which macroscopically amplifies multiplexed fluorescence signals in a broad spectral window and readily adapts to current assay setups without sophisticated accessories or expertise at low cost.
Methods
The plasmonic substrate was chemically synthesized in situ at the solid–liquid interface by rationally screening a panel of reducing monosaccharides and tuning the redox reactions at various catalyst densities and precursor concentrations. The redox properties were studied by Benedict’s assay and electrochemistry. We systemically characterized the morphologies and optical properties of the engineered plasmonic Ag structures by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and spectroscopy. The structure-fluorescence enhancement correlation was explicitly explained by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation and a computational model for gap distribution. Next, we established an enhanced fluoroimmunoassay (eFIA) using a model biomarker for prostate cancer (PCa) and validated it in healthy and PCa cohorts. Prognosis was explored in patients subject to surgical and hormonal interventions following recommended PCa guidelines.
Results
The monosaccharide-mediated redox reaction yielded a broad category of Ag structures, including sparsely dispersed nanoparticles (NPs) of various sizes, semi-continuous nanoislands, and crackless continuous films. Optimal broad-spectral fluorescence enhancement from green to far-red was observed for the inhomogeneous, irregularly-shaped semi-continuous Ag nanoisland substrate (AgNIS), synthesized from a well-balanced redox reaction at a stable rate mediated by mannose. In addition, different local electric field intensity distributions in response to various incident excitations were observed at the nanoscale, elucidating the need for irregular and inhomogeneous structures. AgNIS enabled a maximized 54.7-fold macroscopically amplified fluorescence and long-lasting photostability. Point-of-care availability was fulfilled using a customized smartphone prototype with well-paired optics. The eFIA effectively detected the PCa marker in cell lines, xenograft tumors, and patient sera. The plasmonic platform rendered a diagnostic sensitivity of 86.0% and a specificity of 94.7% and capably staged high-grade PCa that the clinical gold standard test failed to stratify. Patient prognosis of robotic-assisted surgeries and hormone therapies was non-invasively monitored following efficient medical interventions. The assay time was significantly curtailed on the plasmonic platform upon microwave irradiation.
Conclusions
By investigating the effects of reducing monosaccharides on the seed-mediated chemical synthesis of plasmonic Ag structures, we deduced that potent multiplexed fluorescence enhancement originated from both an adequate reducing power and a steady reduction rate. Furthermore, the inhomogeneous structure with adequate medium gap distances afforded optimal multiwavelength fluorescence enhancement, thus empowering an effective eFIA for PCa. The clinically validated diagnostic and prognostic features, along with the low sample volume, point-of-care feasibility with a smartphone, and microwave-shortened assay time, warrant its potential clinical translation for widespread cancer biomarker analysis.

Abstract
In this work, we constructed a target-triggered and controlled-release plasmon-enhanced fluorescent AIE probe to realize the purpose of conformational monitoring of insulin fibrillation. We synthesized a novel water-soluble anthracene derivative, 4,4',4'',4'''-(anthracene-9,10-diylbis(ethene-2,1,1-triyl))tetrakis(N,N,N-trimethylbenzenaminium) iodide (BDVAI), with AIE properties, high biocompatibility and good self-assembly effect. Gold nanocages (AuNCs) were selected as the substrate for PEF, and the inner space of hollow AuNCs was filled with BDVAI. Thiol-modified DNA chains were bonded to the surface of AuNCs by Au-S bonds, and an insulin aptamer was combined with the sulfhydryl chain to seal the AuNCs. This PEF-AIE sensor produces different fluorescence signals when interacting with native insulin and fibrillar insulin; thus, monitoring conformational changes in insulin can be realized by detecting fluorescence intensity changes during insulin fibrillation. Based on this design, this system realized sensitive detection of fibrillar insulin with a detection limit of 23.6 pM. This AIE molecular-based PEF fluorescence enhancement system improves the optical properties of fluorescent substances, which is of great significance in improving the detection sensitivity of amyloid fibrils conformational changes and providing a reliable basis for further understanding the pathogenesis of amyloidosis.

Abstract
The field of plasmonics is capable of enabling interesting applications in different wavelength ranges, spanning from the ultraviolet up to the infrared. The choice of plasmonic material and how the material is nanostructured has significant implications for ultimate performance of any plasmonic device. Artificially designed nanoporous metals (NPMs) have interesting material properties including large specific surface area, distinctive optical properties, high electrical conductivity, and reduced stiffness, implying their potentials for many applications. This paper reviews the wide range of available nanoporous metals (such as Au, Ag, Cu, Al, Mg, and Pt), mainly focusing on their properties as plasmonic materials. While extensive reports on the use and characterization of NPMs exist, a detailed discussion on their connection with surface plasmons and enhanced spectroscopies as well as photocatalysis is missing. Here, we report on different metals investigated, from the most used nanoporous gold to mixed metal compounds, and discuss each of these plasmonic materials' suitability for a range of structural design and applications. Finally, we discuss the potentials and limitations of the traditional and alternative plasmonic materials for applications in enhanced spectroscopy and photocatalysis.

Abstract
Single nanoporous gold nanowire was introduced as a tunable one-dimensional nano-sensor platform with both SERS and catalytic activity, and it precisely fit the requirement of materials for in situ SERS monitoring of plasmon-assisted catalytic reaction. The nanoporous gold nanowires exhibited much more "hot spots" on their surface and much better SPR effect than the smooth nanowires. We demonstrated that these nanowires could be used as a SERS substrate assuring the sensitivity and reproducibility of Raman signals. Besides, they could be applied as a kind of heterogeneous catalyst for in situ SERS monitoring of the plasmon-assisted catalytic reaction-reduction of p-nitrothiophenol (p-NTP) to p,p-dimercaptoazobenzene (DMAB) at their surface. The SERS and catalytic activity of the nanowires could be respectively optimized by adjusting their dealloying time, similar to the procedure of catalyst screening.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and fluorescence imaging offer the possibility of precise and personalized treatment of cancer, but low singlet oxygen production of a commercial photosensitizer and the quenching effect of fluorescent dyes limit the further application of PDT treatment and fluorescence imaging. In addition, the single nanoplatform that simultaneously achieved singlet oxygen and fluorescence enhancement is rare. In this paper, a novel simultaneously enhanced singlet oxygen and fluorescence production nanoplatform of AuNR@mSiO2-Ce6-Cy5.5 has been successfully designed and synthesized by surface plasmon resonance coupling. The as-synthesized nanoplatform achieved a 1.8-fold enhancement of the singlet oxygen production of Ce6 and a 5.0-fold enhancement of the fluorescence production of Cy5.5 by surface plasmon resonance coupling. The as-synthesized nanoplatform simultaneously enhances the photodynamic therapy and fluorescence imaging of cancer, which will have great potential in biomedical applications.

Abstract
This work reports the architecture of a novel class of membrane-supported 1D MOF hollow superstructures, by using the bio-inspired polydopamine (PDA) mediated contra-diffusion synthetic strategy, for facile and efficient separation of uranium in a flow-through mode. PDA chemistry was firstly employed to modify the inner surfaces of the cylindrical pore channels of polycarbonate track-etched membrane (PCTM), thereby regulating the heterogeneous nucleation and interfacial growth of ZIF-8 crystals. ZIF-8 hollow superstructures embedded in membrane matrix with well-defined 1D channels were obtained. These membrane-supported MOF hollow superstructures then, for the first time, served as integrated chromatographic micro-column arrays for effective entrapment of uranium from aqueous solutions. It is highlighted that the PCTM supported ZIF-8 superstructures exhibited outstanding uranium entrapment ability in both traditional batch mode (capacity 62.3 mg/g) and fast flow-through mode (removal rate over 90% for 3 level). Moreover, new insights into the interaction between ZIF-8 and uranyl ions were obtained, suggesting that an ion-exchange mechanism involved synergistic effect was responsible for uranium binding, especially in a long-term exposure. The membrane-supported 1D MOF hollow superstructures developed in this work represent a new category of organic-inorganic composite membrane. And, it is envisioned that the methodology established in this work would be versatile for preparing more MOF superstructures with deployable form for separation applications. In summary, a novel class of membrane-supported ZIF-8 hollow superstructure was fabricated for effective separation of uranyl ions.

Abstract
A fluorescence thermometer based on silver nanowires (AgNWs) is realized by assembling Texas Red (TR)-marked thermal-sensitive DNA stem-loops (TR-DNA stem-loop) on the surface of AgNWs. Temperature configures the structure of the TR-DNA stem-loop and resultantly adjusts the energy transfer between TR and the AgNWs, which could sensitively control the fluorescence intensity of the thermometer. The thermometer is sensitive to the temperature ranging from 30 to 40 °C with the sensitivity of 2.6%/°C. Under the assistance of laser confocal microscopy, a temperature change within a single cell was observed by the monofilament AgNW-based thermometer.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a novel plasmon-enhanced fluorescence (PEF)-based telomerase-responsive nanoprobe for in situ fluorescence "turn on" visualization of telomerase activity in live cells. The as-prepared nanoprobe was composed of a nicked molecular beacon (which contains Cy5.5-labeled hairpin-DNA sequences hybridized with telomerase primers)-functionalized gold nanobipyramids (Au NBPs). Au NBPs were selected as both fluorescence resonance energy-transfer and PEF dual-functional substrates, while DNA was selected to be the precise spacer to manage the interval between the Au NBPs and Cy5.5. On the basis of this target-triggered PEF probe, optimal fluorescence enhancement can be obtained with 49 DNA bases, which was higher than gold nanorods. The proposed method accomplishes sensitive telomerase activity detection down to 23 HeLa cells with a dynamic range of 40-1200 HeLa cells. On the basis of this, in situ fluorescence imaging of telomerase activity in live cells and real-time analysis of the variation in intracellular telomerase activity can be achieved. Moreover, cancer cells and normal cells can also be successfully discriminated even in their co-cultured mixtures, indicating promising potential in clinical diagnoses.

Abstract
Here, we study the plasmonic metal-enhanced fluorescence properties of blue-emitting graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and green-emitting graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy. Reactive ion sputtered silver (Ag) on zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films deposited on silicon (Si) wafers are used as the substrates. The morphology of the sputtered Ag gradually changes from nanoislands, via and elongated network and a continuous film with nanoholes, to a continuous film with increasing sputtering time. The fluorescence properties of GQD and GOQD on the Ag are modulated in terms of the intensities and lifetimes as the morphology of the Ag layers changes. Although both GQD and GOQD show similar fluorescence modulation on the Ag nanofilms, the fluorescence of GQD is enhanced, whereas that of GOQD is quenched due to the charge transfer process from GOQD to ZnO. Moreover, the GQD and GOQD exhibit different fluorescence lifetimes due to the effect of their electronic configurations. The theoretical calculation explains that the fluorescence amplification on the Ag nanofilms can largely be attributed to the enhanced absorption mechanism arising from accumulated optical fields around nanogaps and nanovoids in the Ag nanofilms.

Abstract
A three-dimensional bi-continuous nanoporous gold (NPG)/nickel foam is developed though the electrodeposition of a gold–tin alloy on Ni foam and subsequent chemical dealloying of tin. The newly-designed 3D metal structure is used to anchor MnO2 nanosheets for high-performance supercapacitors. The formed ternary composite electrodes exhibit significantly-enhanced capacitance performance, rate capability, and excellent cycling stability. A specific capacitance of 442 Fg−1 is achieved at a scan rate of 5 mV s−1 and a relatively high mass loading of 865 μg cm−2. After 2500 cycles, only a 1% decay is found at a scan rate of 50 mV s−1. A high power density of 3513 W kg−1 and an energy density of 25.73 Wh kg−1 are realized for potential energy storage devices. The results demonstrate that the NPG/nickel foam hybrid structure significantly improves the dispersibility of MnO2 and makes it promising for practical energy storage applications.

LIGHT, SCIENCE & APPLICATIONS 2017; 6:e17075. [PMID: 30167207 PMCID: PMC6061910 DOI: 10.1038/lsa.2017.75] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2016] [Revised: 04/26/2017] [Accepted: 05/01/2017] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
We report long-lived, highly spatially localized plasmon states on the surface of nanoporous gold nanoparticles-nanosponges-with high excitation efficiency. It is well known that disorder on the nanometer scale, particularly in two-dimensional systems, can lead to plasmon localization and large field enhancements, which can, in turn, be used to enhance nonlinear optical effects and to study and exploit quantum optical processes. Here, we introduce promising, three-dimensional model systems for light capture and plasmon localization as gold nanosponges that are formed by the dewetting of gold/silver bilayers and dealloying. We study light-induced electron emission from single nanosponges, a nonlinear process with exponents of n≈5...7, using ultrashort laser pulse excitation to achieve femtosecond time resolution. The long-lived electron emission process proves, in combination with optical extinction measurements and finite-difference time-domain calculations, the existence of localized modes with lifetimes of more than 20 fs. These electrons couple efficiently to the dipole antenna mode of each individual nanosponge, which in turn couples to the far-field. Thus, individual gold nanosponges are cheap and robust disordered nanoantennas with strong local resonances, and an ensemble of nanosponges constitutes a meta material with a strong polarization independent, nonlinear response over a wide frequency range.

Abstract
Nanoporous gold nanoparticles (NPG-NPs) with controlled particle size and pore size are fabricated via a combination of solid-state dewetting and a subsequent dealloying process. Because of the combined effects of size and porosity, the NPG-NPs exhibit greater plasmonic tunability and significantly higher local field enhancement as compared to solid NPs. The effects of the nanoscale porosity and pore size on the optical extinction are investigated for the NPG-NPs with different particle sizes experimentally and theoretically. The influences of both porosity and pore size on the plasmonic properties are very complicated and clearly different for small particles with dominated dipole mode and large particles with dominated quadrupole mode. Au/Al2O3 hybrid porous NPs with controlled porosity and composition ratio are fabricated through plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition of Al2O3 into the porous structure. In the Au/Al2O3 hybrid porous NPs, both Au and Al2O3 components are bicontinuously percolated over the entire structure. A further red shift of the plasmon peak is observed in the hybrid NPs due to the change of the environmental refractive index. The high tunability of the plasmonic resonances in the NPG-NPs and the hybrid porous NPs can be very useful for many applications in sensing biological and organic molecules.

Abstract
Plasmon-enhanced fluorescence (PEF) generally requires the samples settled on a metal substrate and the effective enhancement distance is less than 100 nm, which limit its application in intracellular sensing. Herein, we report a nano endoscopy with PEF effect for sensing analytes inside the extremely small volume samples. The nano endoscopy was fabricated by assembling single nanoporous gold nanowire (PGNW) on the tip of a tungsten needle. It was accurately manipulated to insert into a micro droplet, and an effective sensing was realized at micrometre scale with submicrometer resolution. By taking lysozyme as a model sensing target, a 23-fold improvement of sensitivity was obtained, comparing with that of smooth gold nanowire (SGNW). These results indicated that the nano endoscopy can realize a high spatial resolution sensing, showing its potential application in intracellular sensing.
