Ag NC and Ag NP/PorC Film-Based Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy-Type Immunoassay for Ultrasensitive Prostate-Specific Antigen Detection.

ABSTRACT: Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a spectral detection technology with high sensitivity and detectivity and can be used to detect the fingerprint information of the molecules with ultralow concentration. Herein, a kind of immunostructure constructed by Ag nanoparticle/porous carbon (Ag NP/PorC) films as the immunosubstrate and Ag NCs as the immunoprobes was presented for ultralow level prostate-specific antigen (PSA) detection. Experimentally, the Ag NP/PorC film was first prepared with a facile method by carbonizing the gelatin-AgNO₃ film in air, and Ag NCs were synthesized by the hydrothermal method. Then, the Ag NP/PorC film was modified by PSA antibodies as the substrate, while Ag NCs were decorated by R6G and PSA antibodies for probes. The sandwiched SERS detectio
