Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for the use of surface-enhanced Raman scattering nanotags (SERS nanotags) in various assay platforms which feature accelerated reaction kinetics. One embodiment includes a method detecting a substance of interest by associating a SERS nanotag with the substance of interest while accelerating the reaction kinetics of the association steps. This method also includes detecting a Raman spectrum of a reporter molecule associated with the SERS nanotag. The reaction kinetics of the assay may be accelerated by applying microwave radiation to the sample, heating the sample, agitating the sample, mixing the sample, vibrating the sample or other methods.
