Light-controlled imaging of biocatalytic reactions via scanning photoelectrochemical microscopy for multiplexed sensing
摘要: A light-controlled multiplexing platform has been developed on the basis of a quantum dot-sensitized inverse opal TiO2 electrode with integrated biocatalytic reactions. Spatially resolved illumination enables multiplexed sensing and imaging of enzymatic oxidation reactions at relatively negative applied potentials.

Towards rational design and optimization of near-field enhancement and spectral tunability of hybrid core-shell plasmonic nanoprobes
摘要: In biology, sensing is a major driver of discovery. A principal challenge is to create a palette of probes that offer near single-molecule sensitivity and simultaneously enable multiplexed sensing and imaging in the “tissue-transparent” near-infrared region. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering and metal-enhanced fluorescence have shown substantial promise in addressing this need. Here, we theorize a rational design and optimization strategy to generate nanostructured probes that combine distinct plasmonic materials sandwiching a dielectric layer in a multilayer core shell configuration. The lower energy resonance peak in this multi-resonant construct is found to be highly tunable from visible to the near-IR region. Such a configuration also allows substantially higher near-field enhancement, compared to a classical core-shell nanoparticle that possesses a single metallic shell, by exploiting the differential coupling between the two core-shell interfaces. Combining such structures in a dimer configuration, which remains largely unexplored at this time, offers significant opportunities not only for near-field enhancement but also for multiplexed sensing via the (otherwise unavailable) higher order resonance modes. Together, these theoretical calculations open the door for employing such hybrid multi-layered structures, which combine facile spectral tunability with ultrahigh sensitivity, for biomolecular sensing.

Specific Biosensing Using DNA Aptamers and Nanopores
摘要: The multiplexed biosensing of target molecules with high specificity and accuracy is of fundamental importance in both biological research and medical diagnostics. In this paper, the working range of the recent nanopore-DNA carrier based method is extended by introducing a two-step assay using specific DNA aptamers. A signal translation step allows for binding of the target in physiological conditions before the nanopore measurements. Using protein encoded DNA carriers, the simultaneous detection of three targets spanning several orders of magnitude in molecular weight is demonstrated. The single-molecule method may be integrated into nanopore sensing devices for future applied research and point-of-care applications.
