The detection sensitivity of silver nanoparticle (AgNP)-tagged goat immunoglobulin G (gIgG) microarrays was investigated by studying surface plasmon resonance (SPR) images captured in the visible wavelength range with the help of a Kretchmann-configured optical coupling set-up. The functionalization of anti-gIgG molecules on the AgNP surface was studied using transmission electron microscopy, photon correlation measurements and UV–visible absorption spectroscopy. A value of 1.3 × 10 7 M −1 was obtained for the antibody–antigen binding constant by monitoring the binding events at a particular resonance wavelength. The detection limit of this SPR imaging instrument is 6.66 nM of gIgG achieved through signal enhancement by a factor of larger than 4 owing to nanoparticle tagging with the antibody.

ABSTRACTA simple method was demonstrated to tune surface plasmon resonance wavelength of silver island films by introducing an underlayer. The tunability can be much enhanced by varying the underlayer medium. In combination with the size effects of metallic islands the plasmon wavelength can be readily adjusted throughout the visible spectral regions. The experimental results were interpreted based on a generalized Maxwell-Garnett theory.
