Abstract
The use of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to determine spectral markers for the diagnosis of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), a difficult-to-diagnose immune-related complication that often leads to limb ischemia and thromboembolism, is proposed. The ability to produce distinct molecular signatures without the addition of labels enables unbiased inquiry and makes SERS an attractive complementary diagnostic tool. A capillary-tube-derived SERS platform offers ultrasensitive, label-free measurement as well as efficient handling of blood serum samples. This shows excellent reproducibility, long-term stability and provides an alternative diagnostic rubric for the determination of HIT by leveraging machine-learning-based classification of the spectroscopic data. We envision that a portable Raman instrument could be combined with the capillary-tube-based SERS analytical tool for diagnosis of HIT in the clinical laboratory, without perturbing the existing diagnostic workflow.

Abstract
Label-free optical detection of insulin would allow in vitro assessment of pancreatic cell functions in their natural state and expedite diabetes-related clinical research and treatment; however, no existing method has met these criteria at physiological concentrations. Using spatially uniform 3D gold-nanoparticle sensors, we have demonstrated surface-enhanced Raman sensing of insulin in the secretions from human pancreatic islets under low and high glucose environments without the use of labels such as antibodies or aptamers. Label-free measurements of the islet secretions showed excellent correlation among the ambient glucose levels, secreted insulin concentrations, and measured Raman-emission intensities. When excited at 785 nm, plasmonic hotspots of the densely arranged 3D gold-nanoparticle pillars as well as strong interaction between sulfide linkages of the insulin molecules and the gold nanoparticles produced highly sensitive and reliable insulin measurements down to 100 pM. The sensors exhibited a dynamic range of 100 pM to 50 nM with an estimated detection limit of 35 pM, which covers the reported concentration range of insulin observed in pancreatic cell secretions. The sensitivity of this approach is approximately 4 orders of magnitude greater than previously reported results using label-free optical approaches, and it is much more cost-effective than immunoassay-based insulin detection widely used in clinics and laboratories. These promising results may open up new opportunities for insulin sensing in research and clinical applications.

Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has become a powerful technique for trace analysis of biomolecules. The use of SERS-tags has evolved into clinical diagnostics, the enhancement of the intrinsic signal of biomolecules on SERS active materials shows tremendous promise for the analysis of biomolecules and potential biomedical assays. The detection of the de novo signal from a wide range of biomolecules has been reported to date. In this review, we examine different classes of biomolecules for the signals observed and experimental details that enable their detection. In particular, we survey nucleic acids, amino acids, peptides, proteins, metabolites, and pathogens. The signals observed show that the interaction of the biomolecule with the enhancing nanostructure has a significant influence on the observed spectrum. Additional experiments demonstrate that internal standards can correct for intensity fluctuations and provide quantitative analysis. Experimental methods that control the interaction at the surface are providing for reproducible SERS signals. Results suggest that combining advances in methodology with the development of libraries for SERS spectra may enable the characterization of biomolecules complementary to other existing methods.

Abstract
In this paper we use surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) on 3D metallic structures for label-free detection and characterization of proteins of interest at low concentrations. The substrates are prepared via nanopatterning with latex nano/microparticles and Cr and Ag sputtering, yielding stable, tunable, and mechanically flexible plasmonic structures. The nanovoids generate a SERS signal of the proteins of interest that is background free and independent of the protein charge. Concentrations as low as 0.05 μg mL(-1) could be detected for 4 different proteins. The proteins also exhibit significantly different SERS spectra on these substrates, which is an important feature for future label-free direct detection schemes.

Abstract
The size-dependent interactions of eight blood proteins with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in their binary mixtures were investigated using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed on the SERS spectra of each binary mixture, and the differentiation ability of the mixtures was tested. It was found that the effect of relative concentration change on the SERS spectra of the binary mixtures of small proteins could be detected using PCA. However, this change was not observed with the binary mixtures of large proteins. This study demonstrated that the relative interactions of the smaller proteins with an average size of 50 nm AgNPs smaller than the large proteins could be monitored, and this information can be used for the detection of proteins in protein mixtures.

Abstract
While surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been attracting a continuously increasing interest of scientific community since its discovery, it has enjoyed a particularly rapid growth in the last decade. Most notable recent advances in SERS include novel technological approaches to SERS substrates and innovative applications of SERS in medicine and molecular biology. While a number of excellent reviews devoted to SERS appeared in the literature over the last two decades, we will focus this paper more specifically on several promising trends that have been highlighted less frequently. In particular, we will briefly overview strategies in designing and fabricating SERS substrates using deterministic patterning and then cover most recent biological applications of SERS.
