Application of molecular SERS nanosensors: where we stand and where we are headed towards?

Abstract: Molecular specific and highly sensitive detection is the driving force of the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) community. The technique opens the window to the undisturbed monitoring of cellular processes in situ or to the quantification of small molecular species that do not deliver Raman signals. The smart design of molecular SERS nanosensors makes it possible to indirectly but specifically detect, e.g. reactive oxygen species, carbon monoxide or potentially toxic metal ions. Detection schemes evol… Show more

“…[151][152][153][154] Although Raman is a label-free technique, it can benefit from the use of specific markers, as DNPH in the previous example. This is especially relevant for SERS, SERRS, or SRS techniques, [155] where a metallic particle can be used to enhance the Raman signal that is usually very weak (i.e., less than 1 in 10 8 of incident photons undergoes Raman scattering). [149] As an example, specific ratiometric sensors for SRS can be developed for the detection of intracellular pH.…”

“…[ 98 ] Currently, most ROS response strategies assemble molecules that chemically react with ROS on the surface of plasma NP, for example, 4‐mercaptophenyl ester (4‐MPBE) for H 2 O 2 detection, [ 91 ] 2‐mercapto‐4‐methoxyphenol (MMP) for HOCl detection, [ 99 ] and 4‐mercapto‐phenyl borate pincinol ester (MBAPE) for peroxy nitrate detection. [ 100 ]…”

“…Thus, it is essential to provide a diagnostic tool for monitoring these species for maintaining the quality of healthy life. In the last few decades, the analysis of samples was mainly dependent on sophisticated analytical tools such as high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), [12,13] gas chromatography (GC), [14,15] liquid chromatography (LC), mass spectrometry (MS), [16,17] colorimetric assays, [18] and Raman spectroscopy [19] . Developing fluorescence‐based chemical sensors/probes offer an alternative and simple analytical platform by providing economic viability.…”

The fluorescence technique has been considered a powerful tool for monitoring the living samples due to its non-invasiveness, accessibility, sensitivity, costeffectiveness, and faster analysis.…”
