Au Nanostructured Surfaces For Electrochemical And Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance-Based Monitoring Of Α-Synuclein-Small Molecule Interactions., Xin R Cheng, Gregory Q Wallace, François Lagugné-Labarthet, Kagan Kerman Feb 2015

Au Nanostructured Surfaces For Electrochemical And Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance-Based Monitoring Of Α-Synuclein-Small Molecule Interactions., Xin R Cheng, Gregory Q Wallace, François Lagugné-Labarthet, Kagan Kerman

Chemistry Publications

In this proof-of-concept study, the fabrication of novel Au nanostructured indium tin oxide (Au-ITO) surfaces is described for the development of a dual-detection platform with electrochemical and localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-based biosensing capabilities. Nanosphere lithography (NSL) was applied to fabricate Au-ITO surfaces. Oligomers of α-synuclein (αS) were covalently immobilized to determine the electrochemical and LSPR characteristics of the protein. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were performed using the redox probe [Fe(CN)6](3-/4-) to detect the binding of Cu(II) ions and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) to αS on the Au-ITO surface. Electrochemical and LSPR data were complemented by Thioflavin-T (ThT) …
