▲ [14a-C302-9] Fast detection to single nanoparticle and virus by using surface Plasmon scattering imaging
Keywords:Surface plasmon scattering, single nanoparticle, imaging
It’s difficult to detect single nanoparticle and virus because their sizes are too tine, which is below 100nm. However, nano pollutants and virus in the water and atmospheric environment have a serious impact on human life. We present a method to detect the single nanoparticle and virus by direct imaging the surface plamon scattering induced by nanoparticle or virus. Single 39nm polystyrene particle has been “seen”, and three viruses, e.g. T4 phage, PR8 influenza virus and EV71 enterovirus, have been detected in PBS buffer solution. This method is fast, high sensitivity, simple and low cost, which has a potential application to in-situ monitor the water and atmospheric environment.
