    摘要: Methods are described for performing a multiplexed analysis of a level of target analyte in a sample, employing an identifier and a labeling reagent. Either or both of the identifier and the labeling reagent comprises a SERS-active nanoparticle associated with a SERS-active reporter with a uniquely identifiable spectroscopic signature. Interrogation of the identifier and the labeling reagent is conducted by serial coincident detection. Such methods can provide enhanced multiplexed analysis of analytes in a sample, especially with regards to improving the type of identifying reagents that are employed.

    摘要: A method for increasing a spectroscopic signal in a biological assay is provided. The method includes forming a suspension of magnetically attractable particles. The method also includes introducing a first magnetic field at a first location to draw the magnetically attractable particles towards the first location and form a first agglomeration. The method also includes removing the first magnetic field. The method further includes introducing a second magnetic field at a second location to draw the first agglomeration towards the second location and form a second agglomeration. The method further includes focusing an excitation source on the second agglomeration formed at the second location.

    摘要: Methods for amplifying the Raman signal of primary SERS nanoparticles are provided. One method generally includes binding secondary SERS particles to the primary SERS nanoparticles after binding of the primary SERS nanoparticles. In another method, secondary SERS nanoparticles are brought in close proximity to the primary SERS nanoparticles, wherein the secondary nanoparticles are free of a reporter molecule or have a reporter molecule different from that of the primary SERS nanoparticles.

    摘要: A portable substance identification system and method are configured to identify at least one detection target faster and with greater accuracy than is possible using prior substance identification systems and/or prior substance identification techniques. An embodiment of the portable substance identification system includes a portable substance identification device containing a Raman spectrometer, and a collection stem that includes a dry collector. One or more reservoirs for a liquid medium and /or a reagent can be formed in a cartridge that is configured to couple with a portable substance identification device. The cartridge has a chamber in which the reagent, liquid medium, and a detection target picked up by the dry collector are mixed. A magnet, positioned at a slant angle, can be used to form at least one pellet of aggregated magnetic particles within a pellet forming area of the chamber. The pellet is formed to maximize its surface area.

    摘要: A substance identification system is configured to identify at least one detection target faster and with greater accuracy than is possible using prior substance identification systems and/or prior substance identification techniques. A chamber includes a pellet forming area having a predetermined geometry that is configured to maximize a ratio of a pellet surface area to a pellet volume. A magnet is positioned on one side of the chamber and configured to form a pellet of aggregated magnetic particles in the pellet forming area. A laser source is positioned on the same side of the chamber as the magnet and configured to illuminate the pellet, when the pellet is formed in the pellet forming area.
