  • Standard positive photoresist techniques were adapted to generate nano-scale patterns of gold substrate using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and femtosecond laser. SAMs formed by the adsorption of alkanethiols onto gold substrate are employed as very thin photoresists, Alkanethiolates formed by the adsorption of alkanethiols are oxidized on exposure to UV light in the presence of air to alkylsulfonates. Specifically, it is known that deep UV light of wavelength less than 200nm is necessary for oxidation to occur. In this study, ultrafast laser of wavelength 800nm and pulse width 200fs is applied for photolithography. Results show that ultrafast laser of visible range wavelength can replace deep UV laser source for photo patterning using thin organic films. Femtosecond laser coupled near-field scanning optical microscopy facilitates not only the patterning of surface chemical structure, but also the creation of three-dimensional nano-scale structures by combination with suitable etching methods.

  • 많은 생체 친화적인 센서들 중에서 avidin-biotin system은 높은 상호 특이적인 친화성으로 인하여 많은 생물학적인 응용 연구에 이용되어 왔다. 효과적인 avidin-biotin 바이오센서 개발을 위해 avidin-biotin 간의 상호 반응성을 증대시키기 위해서는 높은 표면적을 가지는 전극이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 목적을 위해 gold nanorods electrode를 사용하였다. 전기화학적인 특성은 cyclic voltammetry (CV)와 electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)를 가지고 redox couple $[Fe(CN)_6]^{3-/4-}$를 사용하여 다양한 biotin의 농도에 따라 분석되었다. 결론적으로 nanorod의 전극은 1 ng/mL보다 낮은 biotin의 농도도 감지할 수 있음을 보였다.

  • Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a very common cause of food poisoning. Conventional detection methods for the toxin including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), chemiluminescence (ECL), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays require a lot of time, efforts, and expert technicians. Lateral flow strip kits have shown great potential for the rapid detection of foodborne pathogens. The lateral flow strip kit is widely used in clinical settings because it is easy to use, fast, and cost effective. A typical lateral flow strip kit uses colloidal gold to generate a visual signal. However, the lateral flow strip kit based on colloidal gold has limited sensitivity to fulfill food safety regulation requirements. This study was performed to develop a rapid test kit for pathogenic staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) in food samples. The rapid detection kit was fabricated based on a nitrocellulose lateral-flow strip. Cellulose nano beads and SEB antibodies were used as the tag and receptor, respectively, to improve the detection performance. Manually spotted SEB antibody and anti-rabbit antibody on the surface of the nitrocellulose membrane were used as test and control spots, respectively. The feasibility of the rapid test kit to detect SEB in samples was evaluated. The sensitivity of the kit was 10 ng/mL SEB spiked in PBS. Additionally, the rapid test kit could detect 1 ng/mL of SEB in chicken meat extract.

  • Ginsenoside Rg3 was reported to have important biological activities. We demonstrate conjugation and quantification procedures of ginsenoside Rg3 to gold nanoparticles for future biological and medical applications. Ginsenoside Rg3 was conjugated to spherical gold nanoparticles using a bifunctional heptaethylene glycol linker. The sulfhydryl group of heptaethylene glycol was adsorbed onto gold nanoparticles, and carboxylic acid end of heptaethylene glycol was bonded through a hydroxyl group of Rg3 via ester bond formation. The conjugation of Rg3 was characterized with various spectroscopic techniques, high resolution-transmission electron microscopy, and using Rg3 monoclonal antibody. The Rg3- functionalized gold nanoparticles were $4.7{\pm}1.0$ nm in diameter with a surface charge of -4.12 mV. The total number of Rg3 molecules conjugated to a 3.6 mL solution of gold nanoparticle was determined to be $9.5{\times}10^{14}$ corresponding to ~6 molecules of Rg3/gold nanoparticle. These results suggest that ginsenoside Rg3 is successfully conjugated to gold nanoparticles via heptaethylene glycol linker. The quantification was performed by using Rg3 monoclonal antibody without interference of gold's intrinsic color.

  • 금 나노 입자를 회합시킨 흑연전극 표면에 mercaptopropionic acid(mpa)를 사용하여 자기조립 단층막(self-assembled monolayer: SAMs)을 생성시키고 이어서 도파민(dopa)과의 짝지움 반응을 통하여 Gr(Au)/mpa-dopa형의 수식된 전극을 제작하여 NADH의 전기촉매 산화반응에 적용하였다. 이 수식 전극이 전자전달반응속도와 반응과정에 대하여 연구하였다. 전극 표면에 고정된 도파민이 NADH와 이차반응 속도상수는 회전 전극법으로 0.1 M 인산염 완충용액(pH=7.0)에서 결정하였으며 그 값이 $5.06{\times}10^5M^{-1}s^{-1}$였고, $EC_{cat}$ 및 전자전달이 지배적인 과정이었다. 그러나 반응초기 즉, $10^{-3}s$ 이내에서는 이 전극에서 확산에 영향을 받으며 그 때 확산계수는 $4.64{\times}10^{-4}cm^2s^{-1}$이다.

  • 표면 플라즈몬 공명을 이용한 센서는 굴절계 기기의 일종으로서 높은 감도를 가질 뿐만 아니라 비표지 방식이라는 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 재래식 SPR 칩을 이용하여 시판 술 4종의 알코올 함량을 측정하였다. 또한, 재래식 SPR 칩의 감도를 개선하기 위하여 금 박막 위에 금으로 나노형상을 구축하여 나노형상 SPR 칩을 제조하여 모형 술에 대한 감도 개선 효과를 분석하였다. 재래식 SPR 칩을 이용하여 시판 술의 알코올 함량을 측정하기 위한 검량선을 개발하였을 때 시료를 전처리 하지 않고 그대로 측정하였을 때 가장 좋은 검량선을 얻을 수 있었다. 소주, 청주, 이과두주, 탁주 등 시판 술 4종에 대한 1차 회귀식의 검량식에서 결정계수는 각각 0.992, 0.933, 0.918, 그리고 0.984로 나타났다. 한편, 재래식 SPR 칩의 감도를 개선하기 위해 나노형상 SPR 칩을 제조하기 위하여 Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) 방법을 활용하였다. 본 연구에서는 수십 nm 두께의 금 박막을 바닥층으로 하여 그 위에 나노 크기의 실리카 입자를 단분자 층으로 덮어 형틀을 제조하고 다시 그 위에 금을 증착한 후 실리카 입자를 제거하는 방법으로 나노형상을 갖는 SPR 칩을 제조하였다. 나노형상 SPR 칩의 성능을 평가하였을 때 20% 알코올 함량을 가지는 모형 술에 대해서 바닥층의 두께가 50 nm, 나노형상에서 골의 깊이가 20 nm, 나노형상의 배열주기가 300 nm일 때 SPR의 감도가 가장 좋아서 95%의 감도 향상을 얻을 수 있었다. SPR의 감도는 칩과 관련된 인자, 시료의 종류 및 상태에 따라 다르게 나타날 수 있으므로 측정 목적에 알맞은 칩의 설계와 선택이 요구된다.

  • In this paper, we describe a self-aligned fabrication method for a nano-patterned bottom electrode using flood exposure from the backside. Misalignments between layers could cause the final devices to fail after the fabrication of the nano-scale bottom electrodes. A self-alignment was exploited to embed the bottom electrode inside the glass substrate. Aluminum patterns act as a dry etching mask to fabricate glass trenches as well as a self-aligned photomask during the flood exposure from the backside. The patterned photoresist (PR) has a negative sidewall slope using the flood exposure. The sidewall slopes of the glass trench and the patterned PR were $54.00^{\circ}$ and $63.47^{\circ}$, respectively. The negative sidewall enables an embedment of a gold layer inside $0.7{\mu}m$ wide glass trenches. Gold residues on the trench edges were removed by the additional flood exposure with wet etching. The sidewall slopes of the patterned PR are related to the slopes of the glass trenches. Nano-scale bottom electrodes inside the glass trenches will be used in beam resonators operating at high resonant frequencies.

  • 소수성 고분자를 사용하여 제작한 마이크로구조에 금 나노입자를 마스크로 이용하는 반응성이온식각(RIE: Reactive Ion Etching)을 적용하여 초소수성을 갖는 마이크로-나노 혼성구조를 제작하였다. 소수성 고분자로는 PFPE (perfluoropolyether bisurethane methacrylate)를 사용하였으며 마이크로 단일구조는 PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) 몰드를 사용하는 스탬핑 방식으로 제작하였다. 다양한 형태로 제작한 PFPE 마이크로 단일구조와 마이크로-나노 혼성구조의 표면 접촉각을 측정하여 표면 미세구조에 따른 소수성의 변화를 관찰하였다. 마이크로 단일구조의 경우 접촉각은 안정적인 값을 보이지 못하였으나 단일 구조에 나노입자를 사용한 식각을 적용해 나노구조가 형성됨에 따라 $150^{\circ}$ 이상의 접촉각을 갖는 초소수성 표면이 매우 높은 재현성으로 용이하게 형성되었다.

  • Background: Nano-biotechnology is recognized as offering revolutionary changes in the field of cancer therapy and biologically synthesized gold nanoparticles are known to have a wide range of medical applications. Materials and Methods: Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) were biosynthesized with an aqueous extract of the red alga Corallina officinalis, used as a reducing and stabilizing agent. GNPs were characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive analysis (EDX) and Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectroscopy and tested for cytotoxic activity against human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, considering their cytotoxicty and effects on cellular DNA. Results: The biosynthesized GNPs were $14.6{\pm}1nm$ in diameter. FT-IR analysis showed that the hydroxyl functional group from polyphenols and carbonyl group from proteins could assist in formation and stabilization. The GNPs showed potent cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cells, causing necrosis at high concentrations while lower concentrations were without effect as indicated by DNA fragmentation assay. Conclusions: The antitumor activity of the biosynthesized GNPs from the red alga Corallina officinalis against human breast cancer cells may be due to the cytotoxic effects of the gold nanoparticles and the polyphenolcontent of the algal extract.
