Abstract
A gold nanorod (GNR) based LSPR sensor has been developed for label-free detection of C-reactive protein (CRP). The sensor utilizes a single chain variable fragment (scFv) as a receptor to bind CRP. The results of this effort show that CRP in human serum can be quantitatively detected at lower than 1 ng mL-1.
