Silver Particle and Silver Thiolate-Based Molecular Sensing/Recognition Units Operating via Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering

Kim K., Kim N.H., Park H.K., Kim K., Kim N.H., Lee H.S., Lee Y.M., Lee H.S., Lee Y.M., Seoul National University, KR

Noble metallic nanostructures exhibit a phenomenon known as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) in which the scattering cross sections are dramatically enhanced for molecules adsorbed thereon. We demonstrate that commercially available Ag(μAg) powders can be used [...]

Compact Disc (CD)-Based Automated Animal Assay

Kim N.H., Dempsey C.M., Zoval J., Sze J.Y., Madou M.J., University of California Irvine, US

Microfabricated platforms that allow automated cultivation and behavioral observation of Caenorhabditis elegans would be a valuable tool in physiological and genetic studies. Here, we report an automated microfluidic compact disc (CD) system conducive to the [...]
