Abstract

A surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) optical fiber sensor was prepared by the laser-induced deposition of Ag nanoparticle membrane on a silica optical fiber tip, which was applied to the real time SERS spectral monitoring on the biorecognition of biotin/avidin. The bioidentification of biotin/avidin was carried out through a indirect method, in which the bioidentification is based on the SERS response signal of a labeled dye(Atto610) after its fluorescence has been quenched totally by the deposited Ag nanoparticle membrane. By SERS monitoring the bioidentification process of biotin/avidin, it has been found that this recognition process is finished in 40 min. The lowest detection concentration of biotin is 1.0×10−7 mg/mL. This research is promising in the application of immunoassays on line and in vivo.
