Surface modification of nanoparticles for sustaining sensitivity of surface-enhanced raman spectrometric measurements in salinated environment
Týčová, Anna ; Přikryl, Jan ; Vaňhara, P. ; Klepárník, Karel ; Foret, František
Surface-enhanced Raman spectrometry (SERS) represents a powerful method for analysis of a broad spectrum of analytes ranging from inorganic ions to biomolecules of high complexity. It combines the potential\nof Raman spectrometry for a definite identification of an analyte with remarkable sensitivity achieved by the surface enhancement effect occurring on metal nanoparticles. While low ionic strength influences positively\nthe sensitivity of the SERS measurement, a higher level of inorganic salts leads to fast ruining of colloidal character, which completely devastates the effect of the surface enhancement. The common stabilization of\nnanoparticles by a layer of polymers has a negative impact on the SERS sensitivity since it shields the nanoparticle surface from the analytes. In this work, we aim at the development of the bi-ligand system of\nnanoparticles surface modification for improved stability of colloid in saline solution at sustaining the potential for sensitive SERS analyses. The proposed system relies on the binding of 3-mercaptopropionic acid and\nthiolated polyethylene glycol in a suitable ratio onto the nanoparticle surfaces. While the short chains of the acid sustain the accessibility of the surface for analytes, the polymeric structures act as a steric barrier\npreventing colloid aggregation.
A Microfluidic devide for monitoring cell migration
Ledvina, Vojtěch ; Klepárník, Karel ; Legartová, Soňa ; Bártová, Eva
A polydimethylsiloxane microfluidic device for monitoring directed cell migration was developed. The device comprises a main channel barred by pillar arrays with decreasing spacing and utilizes chemotactic movement of cells in the direction of increasing gradient of fetal bovine serum. HeLa cell line transfected with Premo FUCCI Cell Cycle Sensor was used as a model organism. The cells were imaged for several days using a scanning confocal microscope and the rate of migration in different cell cycle phases was evaluated.
