Abstract:
Combining the high sensitivity of a variety of readout technologies with the specific adsorption between antibody and antigen, labeled immunoassay possesses a remarkable effect in microanalysis. The discovery and confirmation of Surface enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) made Raman spectroscopy a powerful tool in many research fields, especially in biomedicine. In this report, the authors describe the applications of the high sensitivity of SERS to labeled immunoassay, and introduce some work in this field by our laboratory.

Labeling DNA Probes
Radioisotopes, fluorophores, or small molecule binding partners like biotin or digoxigenin, are the most widely used reporter tags for labeling DNA probes. These labels can be attached to the probe DNA molecule via...
Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen. Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or quantified.
