Hot Spots in Ag Core−Au Shell Nanoparticles Potent for Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Studies of Biomolecules
Abstract
The vicinity of metallic nanostructures that provides intense optical fields is termed as “hot spot”. Any molecule in close proximity to these hot spots will give rise to an increased surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic (SERS) signal. We have synthesized Ag core−Au shell (core−shell) nanoparticles (NP) with nanopores, which act as hot spots in the SERS measurements. We have demonstrated a large enhancement in SERS studies of various molecules using core−shell NP with hot spots, which is better than using silver nanoparticles. The core−shell NP with hot spots can be used for ultratrace analysis of important biomolecules such as histone acetyltranferase p300, a human transcriptional coactivator protein. The core−shell NP does not change the biomolecule's physical and chemical property upon adsorption, which makes it biocompatible. The core−shell NP carrying hot spots with high SERS enhancement would be ideally suited for in vivo studies of biological systems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
