title = "The ultrasensitive detection of prostate cancer biomarker based on resonant Rayleigh light-scattering response of single Au nanoparticle",
abstract = "A proof-of-concept study was reported on analysis of antigen-antibody recognition based on resonant Rayleigh scattering response of single Au nanoparticles on a microimaging chamber. As benefited by a traditional dark-field microscope and a spectrograph, tiny 30 nm Au nanoparticles were effectively used as nanosensors to monitor changes in refractive index induced by every single binding of the adsorbates. The individual Au nanoparticles were observed with very high signal-to-noise ratio, and a LSPR λmax shift of about 2.5 nm accounting for the detection of PSA antigen with concentration as low as 0.1 pg ml-1 was recorded. This resulted in the successful demonstration of a non-labeling detection system for proteins as well as thousands of different chemical or biological species with possibility of miniaturization and multiplexing scheme.",
