SERS-active Ag@Au core–shell NP assemblies for DNA detection

Abstract

An innovative Raman sensor was developed for DNA detection, based on silver@gold (Ag@Au) core–shell nanoparticle (NP) assemblies fabricated by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The combination of exponential amplification by PCR and the amplified Raman signal achieved DNA detection of 11.8 aM.
