Abstract

We develop a nanoplasmonic platform with remarkable biocompatibility, for long-term survival of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, thereby enabling nanoplasmonic based cell bioassays. Our nanoplasmonic platform consists of large areas (~18.75 cm2) of densely packed (>106/cm2) mushroom-like nanostructures on silicon-oxide (SiO2) substrates, where each nanomushroom (NM) consists of a SiO2 stem and a gold cap. This NM platform is used for monitoring mitosis of fibroblasts for 7 days, E. coli biofilm formation in real-time. In addition, the same nanoplasmonic platform is used to conduct routine protein/DNA based immunoassays with a limit of detection of ∼66 zM.
