Abstract
Hollow-core microstructured optical waveguides (HC-MOW) have recently emerged in sensing technologies, including the gas and liquid detection for industrial as well as clinical applications. Antiresonant HC-MOW provide capabilities for applications in refractive index (RI) sensing, while the long optical path for analyte-light interaction in HC-MOW leads to increased sensitivity of sensor based on Raman scattering signal measurements. In this study, we developed a two-in-one sensor device using HC-MOW for RI and Raman scattering detection. The performance of the sensor was evaluated by characterizing protein-copolymer multicomponent colloids, specifically, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and poly(N - vinyl-2 -pyrrolidone-co-acrylic acid) P(VP-AA) nano-sized complexes and microbubbles of the corresponding shell. Monocomponent solutions showed linear dependencies of RI and characteristic Raman peak intensities on mass concentration. Multicomponent Raman sensing of BSA@P(VP-AA) complexes and microbubbles revealed that changes in P(VP-AA) characteristic peak intensities can describe interactions between components needed to produce colloid systems. RI sensing of multicomponent colloids demonstrated linear dependence on total mass concentrations for BSA@P(VP-AA) complexes, while corresponding BSA@P(VP-AA) microbubbles can be detected with concentrations as high as 4.0 × 108 MB/mL. Therefore, the developed two-in-one sensor of RI and Raman scattering can be used the robust characterization of albumin-based colloids designed for therapeutic and diagnostic needs.
