Enhancing Raman for Biological Sensing: SERS Probes

Raman spectroscopy is a valuable tool in analytical sciences for identifying molecules by their unique structural fingerprint. In biological applications, the weak Raman response can be enhanced on metal surfaces or in metallic nanogaps, creating surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) probes. These probes offer specific contrast for distinguishing cellular and tissue contents without the need […]
