    Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China(Nos.20603008,20873037,and J0830415)and Open Project of State Key Laboratory of Supramolecular Structure and Materials(Jilin University)(No.SKLSSM200902).

The immunoassay application of sterically stabilized,surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-tagged Au nanorod(NR)probes was reported.The probes were prepared by coadsorbing Raman-active molecule 4-mercaptobenzoic acid and biocompatible α-mercapto-ω-carboxyl polyethylene glycol onto the surfaces of Au NRs.The long PEG chain provides both protection and steric stabilization to the probes so that they are able to survive in adverse condition;meanwhile,its terminal carboxyl group binds target entity such as antibody,which imparts detection/recognition functionality to the probes.When the probe recognizes antigen(through the classical"sandwich"structure that was formed due to the highly binding specificity among capture antibody on a solid substrate,detected antigen,and antibody on the probe),the recognition is signaled by the SERS signals of the 4-mercaptobenzoic acid.The detection limit of the Au NR probes,for a single component antigen,was as low as 1×10-9mg·mL-1.

Key words: 4-mercaptobenzoic acid, gold nanorod, α-mercapto-ω-carboxyl polyethylene glycol, immunoassay, surface-enhanced Raman scattering
