The extinction spectra of the films exhibited a peak around a wavelength of 369 nm which was observed to red-shift linearly with increasing refractive index of the surrounding medium. The films were functionalized with solutions of 11-amino-1-undecanethiol, hydrochloride and rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG) to allow for the detection of anti-rabbit IgG binding. Binding of biomolecules to the nanoparticle surface increases the local refractive index and results in a red-shifting of the extinction peak. The wavelength shift at varying concentrations of anti-rabbit IgG was measured and fit to the Langmuir isotherm. | | ISBN: | 1-4200-6183-6 |
