Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover how metal-enhanced fluorescence is changing traditional concepts of fluorescence This book collects and analyzes all the current trends, opinions, and emerging hot topics in the field of metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF). Readers learn how this emerging technology enhances the utility of current fluorescence-based approaches. For example, MEF can be used to better detect and track specific molecules that may be present in very low quantities in either clinical samples or biological systems. Author Chris Geddes, a noted pioneer in the field, not only explains the fundamentals of metal-enhanced fluorescence, but also the significance of all the most recent findings and models in the field. Metal-enhanced fluorescence refers to the use of metal colloids and nanoscale metallic particles in fluorescence systems. It offers researchers the opportunity to modify the basic properties of fluorophores in both near- and far-field fluorescence formats. Benefits of metal-enhanced fluorescence compared to traditional fluorescence include: Increased efficiency of fluorescence emission Increased detection sensitivity Protect against fluorophore photobleaching Applicability to almost any molecule, including both intrinsic and extrinsic chromophores Following a discussion of the principles and fundamentals, the author examines the process and applications of metal-enhanced fluorescence. Throughout the book, references lead to the primary literature, facilitating in-depth investigations into particular topics. Guiding readers from the basics to state-of-the-technology applications, this book is recommended for all chemists, physicists, and biomedical engineers working in the field of fluorescence.

Download or read book Surface Functionalization for Enhanced Fluorescence Detection Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging and Microscopy written by Jennifer Betsy Fasoli and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents several high throughput imaging and analysis techniques performed by fluorescence detection and surface plasmon resonance biosensing. The microarray fabrication methods introduced in this thesis, as well as the DNA functionalization on planar and nanoparticle surfaces, enable and facilitate the real-time study of adsorption events via DNA- DNA hybridization and protein-DNA interaction. Silica deposited on polyolefin film serves as the base for the development of DNA microarray. Fabrication process involves poly(L-glutamic acid) monolayer to react with amine functional groups functionalized on both the silica surface and the probe DNA strands. Covalently surface-bound probes then hybridize with fluorophore-labeled target DNA. Shrinking the microarray with heat significantly enhances the sensitivity of detection via fluorescence signal amplification. Polydopamine, a biomimetic polymer, easily and rapidly grows an adhesive layer to link amine-terminated, single-stranded DNA to gold surface. Self-polymerization of polydopamine simply requires mild reagents and reaction condition. The microarray formed with polydopamine attachment technique reserves its stability and specificity to detect DNA and protein targets by surface plasmon resonance imaging. This one-step microarray fabrication approach, when coupled with signal amplification from DNA-modified gold nanoparticles, empowers the detection limit capable of seeing down to 10 pM target concentration. Electrochemical deposition of polydopamine demonstrates strong control over film localization and thickness. This meticulous polymerization on gold surface at the microscale proves the high toposelectivity of this deposition technique. Amine-modified DNA bound on this polydopamine thin flim hybridizes with fluorophore-tagged DNA to generate fluorescent DNA micropatterns. This electordeposition also forms DNA microarrays used in surface plasmon resonance imaging for DNA-DNA hybridization and DNA-coated gold nanoparticle adsorption measurements. A 814 nm, near-infrared surface plasmon resonance microscope exemplifies a novel, objective-coupled sensing and imaging system at single-nanoparticle scale. This microscope visualizes individual binding occurrence of gold nanoparticles and polystyrene beads. Adsorption analysis presents the calculated surface plasmon resonance signal ([delta]%R) as it varies with particle size. For initial biosensing measurements, the surface plasmon resonance microscopy examines each hybridization-adsorption of DNA-decorated gold nanoparticle on gold surface functionalized with either completely or partially complementary DNA monolayer.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plasmonic nanostructures have been extensively used in the past few decades for applications in sub-wavelength optics, data storage, optoelectronic circuits, microscopy and bio-photonics. The enhanced electric field produced within a few hundred nanometers of these surfaces can be used to excite fluorophores in the surrounding environment. Fluorescence based bio-detection and bio-imaging are two of the most important tools in the life sciences and improving the qualities and capabilities of fluorescence based detectors and imaging equipment remains a big challenge for industry manufacturers. We report a novel fabrication technique for producing nano-gap embedded periodic grating substrates on the nanoscale using a store bought HD-DVD and conventional soft lithography procedures. Polymethylsilsesquioxane (PMSSQ) polymer is used as the ink for the micro-contact printing process with PDMS stamps obtained from the inexpensive HD-DVDs as master molds. Fluorescence enhancement factors of up to 118 times were observed with these silver nanostructures in conjugation with Rhodamine-590 fluorescent dye. These substrates are ideal candidates for a robust and inexpensive optical system with applications such as low-level fluorescence based analyte detection, single molecule imaging, and surface enhanced Raman studies.
