Levels of fumonisins, mycotoxins produced by fungal species, must be accurately and rapidly monitored to ensure food safety. In this study, using surface plasmon resonance sensor, a batch-type biosensor was fabricated to detect fumonisin $B_1$. By applying this biosensor to fumonisin $B_1$ solutions of 0 to 6 ppm, a significant calibration model was developed for measurement. Coefficient of determination in regression analysis for the model was 0.920. Results indicate that detection of fumonisin $B_1$ by surface plasmon resonance biosensor was highly feasible.

Various etching methods of optical fiber and formation of metal nano particles on the optical fiber have been proposed for fabrication of fiber optic localized surface plasmon resonance (FO LSPR) biosensors. Different types of etched optical fiber are possible by removing the cladding of optical fiber using HF (hydrofluoric acid) solution and BHF (buffered hydrofluoric acid) solution, which results in improved surface roughness when BHF solution is used. Localized surface plasmon can be formed and measured by formation of silver and gold nano particles on the etched optical fiber. The characteristics of the etched optical fiber and metal nano particles on the etched surface of the optical fiber play a key role in dictating the sensitivity of the LSPR sensors, so that the proposed results can be expected to be applied for related research on fiber optic based biosensors.

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has been widely used for biological and chemical sensing applications. The present study investigates numerically the optical characteristics for the single Au film and bimetallic Ag/Au film SPR configurations by using the multiple beam interference matrix (MBIM) method. We use the prism coupling method, especially Kretschmann configuration for excitation of surface plasmon wave (SPW). The estimated results of reflectance, phase shift and magnetic field intensity enhancement factor are provided for finding out the optimum configuration with high sensitivity for SPR measurement. As a result, the optimum thicknesses are found to be 52 nm for a single Au film and 5 nm to 36 nm for bimetallic Ag-Au film. From the comparison of full width half maximum (FWHM) values for reflectance, phase shift, and enhancement of magnetic field intensity, it is concluded that the highest sensitivity can be obtained when using the phase shift for SPR sensor.

이 논문에서는 광화학적 방법을 이용하여 금속 콜로이드 입자를 반도체 나노입자를 함유한 수용액내에서 제조하여 그 광학적 특성을 관찰하였다. 형성된 금속입자는 사용된 반도체 입자에 따라 다른 경향을 나타낸다. Au 금속 입자를 CdS 입자를 함유한 수용액내에서 제조한 경우 일반적인 금속 입자의 Plasmon Resonance의 특성을 보이는 반면 Ag금속 입자를 AgBr 입자를 함유한 용액내에서 제조한 경우 Red-Shift 현상을 보였고, 그 정도는 UV 조사량에 따라 달라졌다. 이러한 금속 Plasmon Resonance의 Red-Shift 현상을 Effective Medium 이론을 이용하여 이론적으로 설명하였다.

A novel surface plasmon resonance(SPR) multisensing method, which does not require imaging apparatus such as CCD, has been proposed and implemented experimentally. The proposed method is based on the multichannel SPR and the separation of signals by use of additional layers whose thickness is controlled. SPR signals are influenced by the thickness of sensing layer as well as the optical condition of sensing surface. As the SPR signals from different ligands are usually positioned closely, the reflected light from sensing surface does not provide us with the clear differences of resonance signal depending on the kinds of ligands. It was found from our experiments that SPR signals from each ligand that is located on the additional layer with different thickness can be separated clearly enough to identify various signals from different ligands. Proposed method with theoretical design and simulation has been verified experimentally by using $SiO_2$ thin film layer as additional layer.

In this study, the optical properties of localized surface plasmon resonance sensor using optical fiber was analyzed as the variation of a size and surface density of gold nano particles on the etched optical fiber surface. It is shown that a size and surface density of gold nano particles on optical fiber surface are controlled by $Na_3$ citrate quantity and pH of gold colloid solution. To measure the sensitivity, peak wavelength of absorbance spectrum was detected as the reflective index of the solution. The sensor sensitivity is linearly dependent on the size and surface densities of gold nano particles from the results of optical experiments.

결합된 플라즈몬-도파관 공진 (PWR) 구조에서 전파하는 TE, TM 전송 모드들의 바이오 센싱 특성을 조사하였다. 수치해석을 위하여 모드 전송선로 이론 (MTLT)을 사용되었다. 기존의 Ag-기반 표면 플라즈몬 공명 바이오센서의 감도를 향상시키기 위하여, 제안된 PWR 바이오센서는 N쌍의 MgF2-Si3N4 층으로 구성된 다층구조로 설계하였다. 그 바이오센서의 각도 감도가 광범위한 생물학적 용액 (굴절률 1.33~1.37)에 대하여 수치적으로 분석되었다. 더욱이, 암세포와 혈장 농도를 감지하는 센서의 가용성을 조사하였다. 결국, 그 결과들은 제안된 바이오센서가 소변에서 다양한 종류의 암 세포와 다양한 포도당 농도를 효율적으로 감지할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

The pesticide is raising public interest in the world, because it causes damage to an environmental pollution and the human health remaining agricultural products and an ecosystem, in spite of the advantages. Particularly, each country restricts the residual pesticide and induces observance about the safety and usage standard so that they can control the amount of pesticide used and defend the safety of agricultural products. The habitual practice for the analysis of the residual pesticide depends on GC (gas chromatography), HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) and GC/MS (gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy), which triturate the fixed quantity of samples, abstract and purify as a suitable organic solvent. These methods have the highly efficient in aspects of sensitivity and accuracy. On the other hand, they need the high cost, time consuming, much effort, expensive equipment and the skillful management. Carbofuran is highly toxic by inhalation and ingestion and moderately toxic by dermal absorption. As with other carbamate compounds, it is metabolized in the liver and eventually excreted in the urine. The half-life of carbofuran on crops is about 4 days when applied to roots, and longer than 4 days if applied to the leaves. This research was conducted to develop immunoassay for detecting carbofuran residue quickly on the basis of surface plasmon resonance and to evaluate the measurement sensitivity. Gold chip used was CM5 spreaded dextran on the surface. An applied antibody to Immunoassay was GST (glutathione-s-transferase). The association and the dissociation time were 176 second and 215 second between GST and carbofuran. The total analysis time using surface plasmon resonance was 13 minutes including regeneration time, on the other hand HPLC and GC/MS was 2 hours usually. The minimum detection limit of a permissible amount for carbofuran in the country is 0.1 ppm. The immunoassay method using surface plasmon resonance was 0.002 ppm.

Here, the rapid detection of Salmonella typhimurium by a portable surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor in which the beam from a diode laser is modulated by a rotating mirror is reported. Using this system, immunoassay based on lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-specific monoclonal anti-Salmonella antibody was performed. For the purpose of orientation-controlled immobilization of antibodies on the SPR chip surface, the cysteine-mediated immobilization method, which is based on interaction between a gold surface and a thiol group (-SH) of cysteine, was adopted. As a result, using the portable SPR-based immunoassay, we detected S. typhimurium in the range from 10^7 CFU/mL to 10^9 CFU/mL within 1 hour. The results indicate that the portable SPR system could be potentially applied for general laboratory detection as well as on-site monitoring of foodborne, clinical, and environmental agents of interest.
