AbstractNanoparticle-based technologies have played important roles in providing opportunities for the development of a new generation of sensing tools. Because of their unique optical, chemical, electrical, and catalytic properties, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been extensively studied for biological and chemical detections as well as analytical applications. AuNP-based sensors are expected to change the foundations of sensing and detecting biomolecules and metal ions. The ease of surface functionalization of AuNPs allows chemists to create the desired functionalities for specific applications. In this review, we will discuss the use of surface-functionalized AuNPs for fabricating smart sensors that are capable of detecting heavy metal ions, glucose, and specific biomolecules such as protein and DNA.

The chemical elements of proteins are similar to that of DNA (e.g., C, H, O, and N), and DNA shows different knotted architectures. So we imagine that proteins may show a wealth of highly complex structures, especially when proteins interact with each other. The imagination was proved by synthesizing gold nanoparticles (GNPs) to capture the lifelike protein structures. The optical responses (i.e., color) of as-prepared GNPs are found to be characteristic to a given protein (or heavy metal ion). Based on the “three colors” principle of Thomas Young, we extracted the red, green, and blue (RGB) alterations of as-synthesized GNPs to fabricate multichannel sensor arrays for proteins (or heavy metal ions) discrimination. The designed multichannel sensor arrays demonstrate possibilities in semiquantitative analysis of multiple analytes (e.g., proteins and heavy metal ions). This work is believed to open new opportunities for GNPs-based label-free sensing.
