A method for monitoring DPA release from a single germinating Bacillus subtilis endospore is reported. High S/N ratio SERS spectra were obtained with excitation power 3 mW at 647.1 nm and 1 min spectral collection times. The method is proof-of-principle for the SERS detection limit at the single spore level. This represents a 100- to 1000-fold improvement over previously reported detection limits for SERS-based measurements of DPA in endospores.
报道了一种监测单个发芽枯草芽孢杆菌芽孢中吡啶二羧酸(DPA)释放的方法。在647.1nm激发波长下,激发功率为3mW,光谱采集时间为1分钟,获得了高信噪比的表面增强拉曼散射(SERS)光谱。该方法证明了在单芽孢水平上SERS检测限的原理。这比之前报道的基于SERS测量芽孢中DPA的检测限提高了100至1000倍。
