N2 - We describe the miniaturization of the Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technology which mainly finds its applications in pharmaceutical screening and biotechnology so far. SPR spectroscopy is a label-free, non-destructive and highly sensitive measurement principle detecting changes in the refractive index in striking distance to a gold surface. A transfer of this technology to a miniaturized sensor will broaden the range of possible applications. A promising feature which is included in the miniaturized system is the angle-dependent recording of the SPR signals without moving parts. Commercial SPR assays are mainly working with a small number of sensing spots. In contrast, the SPR imaging system shown here will allow to use an array of many sensing spots. In combination with chemical receptors designed as an artificial nose, the simultaneous detection of many analytes is envisioned for future applications.

T1 - Miniaturisiertes Sensorsystem zur Oberflächenplasmonenresonanzspektroskopie
T2 - 118. Jahrestagung der deutschen Gesellschaft für angewandte Optik (DGaO), 6.-10. Juni 2017, Dresden
N2 - Die Oberflächenplasmonenresonanzspektroskopie (SPR) wird aufgrund ihrer Vorzüge der zerstörungs- und markierungsfreien Messung, sowie der hohen Sensitivität sehr erfolgreich im Labormaßstab eingesetzt. Aufgrund der hohen Kosten geschieht dies bislang hauptsächlich in der Bioanalytik und dem Wirkstoffscreening. Gezeigt wird ein Ansatz, mit dem diese Technologie auf ein ultrakompaktes, kostengünstiges Sensorsystem übertragen wird, welches in der Lage ist, hoch-sensitiv Änderungen im Brechungsindex von 10-6 Einheiten (RIU) zu detektieren. Für Wasser bewirkt eine Temperaturschwankung von 1 K bereits eine Änderung von 1 mRIU. Daher wird durch ein integriertes Referenzsystem, sowie die Miniaturisierung erreicht, dass das System gegenüber Temperaturschwankungen, weitestgehend stabil ist. In dem MOEMS wird anstatt der konventionellen 1-Punkt bzw. 2-Punkt Messung ein bildgebendes Verfahren angewendet. Die Sensorfläche von 15 x 15 mm wird dabei mit einem handelsüblichen 4 Mio. Pixel CMOS Sensor ausgewertet. Um verlässliche Datenpunkte zu erhalten benötigt man eine Fläche von 10 x 10 Pixel. Demzufolge können auf dem Sensor theoretisch bis zu 40.000 Sensorspots parallel ausgewertet werden.

T1 - Graphene-enhanced plasmonic nanohole arrays for environmental sensing in aqueous samples
JF - Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology
N2 - The label-free nature of surface plasmon resonance techniques (SPR) enables a fast, specific, and sensitive analysis of molecular interactions. However, detection of highly diluted concentrations and small molecules is still challenging. It is shown here that in contrast to continuous gold films, gold nanohole arrays can significantly improve the performance of SPR devices in angle-dependent measurement mode, as a signal amplification arises from localized surface plasmons at the nanostructures. This leads consequently to an increased sensing capability of molecules bound to the nanohole array surface. Furthermore, a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sensor surface was layered over the nanohole array. Reduced graphene oxide is a 2D nanomaterial consisting of sp2-hybridized carbon atoms and is an attractive receptor surface for SPR as it omits any bulk phase and therefore allows fast response times. In fact, it was found that nanohole arrays demonstrated a higher shift in the resonance angle of 250–380% compared to a continuous gold film. At the same time the nanohole array structure as characterized by its diameter-to-periodicity ratio had minimal influence on the binding capacity of the sensor surface. As a simple and environmentally highly relevant model, binding of the plasticizer diethyl phthalate (DEP) via π-stacking was monitored on the rGO gold nanohole array realizing a limit of detection of as low as 20 nM. The concentration-dependent signal change was studied with the best performing rGO-modified nanohole arrays. Compared to continuous gold films a diameter-to-periodicity ratio (D/P) of 0.43 lead to a 12-fold signal enhancement. Finally, the effect of environmental waters on the sensor was evaluated using samples from sea, lake and river waters spiked with analytically relevant amounts of DEP during which significant changes in the SPR signal are observed. It is expected that this concept can be successfully transferred to enhance the sensitivity in SPR sensors.

N2 - Gezeigt wird die Miniaturisierung eines Messsystems für Oberflächenplasmonenresonanzspektroskopie (SPR), einer markierungs-, sowie zerstörungsfreien als auch hoch sensitiven Technologie. Aufgrund der hohen Kosten klassischer SPR-Geräte wird sie bisher jedoch vornehmlich in der Bio- und Medizintechnik eingesetzt. Das Messprinzip ermöglicht die Erfassung von Brechungsindexänderungen nahe einer Oberfläche. Der Transfer dieser Technologie von Laborgeräten hin zu einem miniaturisierten Sensorsystem senkt die Kosten, macht das System robuster und ermöglicht so ein wesentlich breiteres Anwendungsspektrum. Ein sehr vielversprechendes Merkmal des hier vorgestellten Systems ist die Möglichkeit den SPR-Effekt winkelabhängig zur Lichtquelle ohne bewegliche Bauteile zu verfolgen.

T1 - Nanoparticle Determination in Water by LED-Excited Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging
JF - Chemosensors
N2 - The increasing popularity of nanoparticles in many applications has led to the fact that these persistent materials pollute our environment and threaten our health. An online sensor system for monitoring the presence of nanoparticles in fresh water would be highly desired. We propose a label-free sensor based on SPR imaging. The sensitivity was enhanced by a factor of about 100 by improving the detector by using a high-resolution camera. This revealed that the light source also needed to be improved by using LED excitation instead of a laser light source. As a receptor, different self-assembled monolayers have been screened. It can be seen that the nanoparticle receptor interaction is of a complex nature. The best system when taking sensitivity as well as reversibility into account is given by a dodecanethiol monolayer on the gold sensor surface. Lanthanide-doped nanoparticles, 29 nm in diameter and with a similar refractive index to the most common silica nanoparticles were detected in water down to 1.5 mu g mL(-1). The sensor can be fully regenerated within one hour without the need for any washing buffer. This sensing concept is expected to be easily adapted for the detection of nanoparticles of different size, shape, and composition, and upon miniaturization, suitable for long-term applications to monitor the quality of water.

T1 - Surface plasmon resonance imaging for detection of drug metabolites in water
T2 - Proceedings of SPIE, Optical Sensors 2019, 1 - 4 April 2019, Prague, Czech Republic
N2 - The analysis of surface water, groundwater, drinking water as well as sewage is important to get information about the contamination of the water cycle. Currently, these time-consuming investigations require special equipment, like for example hyphenated mass spectrometry. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a faster alternative as it is highly sensitive to changes in the dielectric medium next to a thin metal layer and makes it a quasi-universal detector. Therefore, and due to the labelfree nature, SPR is a widely used sensing tool for real‐time monitoring of molecular interactions of various analytes. SPR imaging (SPRi) has several advantages to standard surface plasmon resonance, as it allows to observe many analytes in parallel as well as the integration of referencing technologies. However, the homogenous illumination of a large area (several millimeters) with a small light source is challenging and demands new approaches. Allopurinol, a drug used to lower the blood concentration of urate and hence decrease the affection of gout, gets metabolized to oxipurinol in the body and dropped out almost entirely by urinary excretion. After wastewater treatment, concentrations of oxipurinol up to 21.7 μg•L-1 are detected. Further tracking of oxipurinol in the urban water cycle showed its presence in rivers and streams or even in groundwater. Therefore, the high biological stability of oxipurinol allows this molecule to be used as a marker for domestic wastewater in the environment. For the detection of oxipurinol by SPR graphene was used as receptive layer, as the analyte can bind via π-stacking to this surface. An SPRi technique was developed and compared to conventional SPR system for the detection of oxipurinol.
