Aptamer was modified the gold nanoparticle (AuNP) to form stable aptamer-AuNP probe that was not gathered in the pH 7.2 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) buffer solution and in the presence of NaCl. The Ag+ react with the aptamer-AuNP probe to fold a hairpin structure complex of Ag+-aptamer and release AuNPs that were aggregated to large particles, which lead to resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 596 nm enhancement. The enhanced value ΔI596nm is linear to Ag + concentration in the range of 6.7×10-8-1.33×10-6 mol/L. Thus, a new RRS methods were proposed for detection of Ag+, with high sensitivity, good selectivity and simplicity.

Using PEG-10000 and sodium citrate as stabilizer, and NaBH4 as reducer, a stable nanosilvers (AgNPs) sol was prepared. In pH 6.6 phosphate buffer solution containing NaCl, the AgNPs were aggregated to large particles, which lead to resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 350 nm enhancement. Upon addition of cysteine, the peak decreased. The decreased value ΔI is linear to cysteine concentration in the range of 5-60×10-8 mol/L. Thus, a new RRS method was proposed for detection of cysteine.

Hemin aptamer was used to modify gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to obtain a stable aptamer-nanogold probe (AussDNA). In the condition of pH 8.0 Tris-HCl buffer solution containing 50mmol/L NaCl, the substrate chain of AussDNA was cracked by hemin to produce a short single-stranded DNA(ssDNA) and then further combined with hemin to form a stable hemin-ssDNA conjugate. The AuNPs released from AussDNA would be aggregated in the condition of 50mmol/L NaCl and exhibited a strong resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 368nm. Under the selected conditions, the increased RRS intensity (ΔI368nm) was linear to hemin concentration in the range of 5-750nmol/L, with a detection limit of 66 pmol/L. This RRS method was applied to determination of residual hemin in serum samples, with satisfactory results. The remnant AussDNA in the solution exhibited a strong catalytic activity on the gold particle reaction of HAuCl4-vitamine C (VC) that can be monitored by RRS technique at 368 nm. When the hemin concentration increased, the AussDNA decreased, the catalysis decreased, and the RRS intensity at 368nm decreased. The decreased RRS intensity ΔI368nmwas linear to the hemin concentration in the range of 1-200nmol/L, with a detection limit of 54 pmol/L. Accordingly, a sensitivity, selectivity, and simplicity new method of resonance Rayleigh scattering spectra to detect hemin using aptamer-modified nanogold as catalyst was established.

A rapid, simple, and novel method for folate receptor α (FRα) determination is reported here. A probe of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) modified with anti-FRα antibody was synthesized under the optimized conditions first. The antibody-modified Au NPs would aggregate when FRα was added to the probe for the specific interaction between antibody and antigen, resulting in the enhancement of resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) intensity. There is a linear relationship between the change of RRS intensity (ΔIRRS) and the concentration of FRα, with the detecting range of 0.50–37.50 ng·mL−1 and the limit of determination of 0.05 ng·mL−1. The determination of FRα in serum samples was realized with the advantages of high selectivity, high sensitivity, and easy operation.

In pH 6.6 Na2HPO4- citric acid buffer solution and in the presence of KCl, the immunoreaction between hCG and nanosilver-labeled anti-hCG took place, the immunonanosilver-complex was formed and deposited, caused the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) intensity at 510 nm decreased. In the optimal condition, the decreased RRS intensity responds linearly with the concentration of hCG over 0.125-1.75 µg/mL. Based on this, a new and simple RRS method has been proposed for the determination of hCG in serum samples, with satisfactory results.

In pH 4.2 HAc-NaAc buffer solution, hydroxylamine hydrochloride reduced Cu2+ to Cu+ that coordinate the nitrogen atom of 1,2,3-benzotriazole (BTA) to form Cu-BTA complex particles with a resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 369 nm. Under the selected conditions, when the BTA concentration increased, the RRS intensity at 369 nm increased. The increased RRS intensity ΔI369nm was linear to BTA concentration in the range of 0.17-13.36 µg/mL, with a regression equation of ΔI369nm = 89.91C + 96.7, and the detection limit is 0.17 µg/mL. Accordingly, a new RRS method for BTA was established.

Nanogold (NG) in size of 10 nm was prepared by the NaBH4 procedure. A new ligand 6-mercaptonicotinic acid (MNA) was used to couple both methylmercury chloride (CH3HgCl) and carrier protein to obtain an immunogen, it was immunized BALB/C mice, and the spleen cells of immunized mice were fused with myeloma cells. The monoclonal antibody (mAb) against mercury (II) ions was produced by the hybridoma technique. The mAb was labeled the NG to prepare an immunonanogold (ING) probe for Hg(II). In pH 5.4 Na2HPO4-citric acid buffer solution and under the condition of ultrasonic irradiation, the ING particles were aggregated un-specifically to form big particles that exhibited a strong resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 580 nm. When the Hg(II) was added, the specific immunoreaction of ING-Hg(II) take place, and the ING-Hg(II) immunocomplex dispersed in the solution that caused the RRS intensity decreasing linearly at 580 nm. The decreased intensity was linear to Hg(II) concentration in the range of 0.025-10 μmol/L, with a detection limit of 1.1 nmol/L Hg(II).

Nanogolds (AuNPs) were synthesized with the citrate reduction of HAuCl4. In pH 3.0 glycineHCl buffer solution (0.20 mol/L), AuNPs do not aggregate. In the presence of Cr (III), that Cr (III) could form astable Cr (III) citrate complex with the citrate on surface of AuNP in 1: 2 binding stoichiometry, and the AuNPs were aggregated to big AuNPs clusters that led to the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 530 nm increased greatly. Under the selected conditions, the increased RRS intensity (ΔI530nm) is linear to Cr (III) concentration in the range of 0.25-5.0 μmol/L. This RRS method was applied to determination of Cr (III) in synthetic samples, with satisfactory results. Cr (VI) was also detected after reduction to Cr (III).
