چکیده

High throughput intracellular delivery strategies, electroporation, passive and TATHA2 facilitated diffusion of colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are investigated for cellular toxicity and uptake using state-of-art analytical techniques. The TATHA2 facilitated approach efficiently delivered high payload with no toxicity, pre-requisites for intracellular applications of plasmonic metal nanoparticles (PMNPs) in sensing and therapeutics.

Chemical imaging of live fibroblasts by SERS effective nanofilm.

Reliable and strong surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signatures of intracellular compartments in live NIH3T3 fibroblasts are collected in real time by means of SERS active thin nanofilm (30 nm) on colloidal silica (1.5 μm). Nanofilm is composed of preformed silver nanoparticles in the matrix of polyacrylic acid, protecting against heating (37 °C) in water, or culture medium or phosphate...

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering from intracellular and extracellular bacterial locations.

While surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) can increase the Raman cross-section by 4-6 orders of magnitude, for SERS to be effective it is necessary for the analyte to be either chemically bonded or within close proximity to the metal surface used. Therefore most studies investigating the biochemical constituents of microorganisms have introduced an external supply of gold or silver nanopar...

Gold nanodome-patterned microchips for intracellular surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.

While top-down substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) offer outstanding control and reproducibility of the gold nanopatterns and their related localized surface plasmon resonance, intracellular SERS experiments heavily rely on gold nanoparticles. These nanoparticles often result in varying and uncontrollable enhancement factors. Here we demonstrate the use of top-down gold-na...

Investigating the Intracellular Behaviors of Liposomal Nanohybrids via SERS: Insights into the Influence of Metal Nanoparticles

The recent proposition to combine liposomes with nanoparticles presents great opportunities to develop multifunctional drug delivery platforms. Although impressive progress has been made, attempts to elucidate the role nanoparticles play in the integral nanohybrids are still rather limited. Here, using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique, we investigate the influence of metal nan...

Ag@4ATP-coated liposomes: SERS traceable delivery vehicles for living cells.

A liposome-Ag nanohybrid has been demonstrated as a SERS traceable intracellular drug nanocarrier. Liposomes have been introduced for their special qualities in drug delivery systems. In essence, 4-aminothiophenol (4ATP) tagged Ag nanoparticles (Ag@4ATP) were adsorbed onto the surfaces of liposomes via electrostatic interactions, in which 4ATP was used as a SERS reporter. In such a nanohybrid, ...
