Abstract:
3D SERS microneedles with self-assembled AuNPs were fabricated with tannic acid (chemical glue and reductant) on polylactic acid microneedles for in-depth chemical and biomolecular analysis, with LOD values below 200 ppb for small molecules and 102 CFU cm-2 for bacteria. The MB/Au-microneedles were used for photodynamic therapy with SERS-monitored photosensitizer degradation.
