Researchers from Xinyang Agriculture and Forestry University Report Recent Findings in Phosphoric Monoester Hydrolases (Silver Ion-regulated Reliable and Rapid Detection Technique for Alkaline Phosphatase Based On Surface-enhanced Raman...).

Researchers from Xinyang Agriculture and Forestry University in China have developed a rapid and reliable detection technique for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The technique utilizes silver ions (Ag+) to create a controlled "hot spot" effect, resulting in highly amplified signals for ALP detection. The technique was found to have a low limit of detection (LOD) of 1.23 pg mL-1 (0.005 U L-1) and offers improved accuracy and reproducibility. This SERS-based technique has the potential to be a point-of-care candidate for the sensitive detection of ALP in human serum. [Extracted from the article]
