The integration of SERS nanoprobes and a microfluidic dielectrophoresis (DEP) device for rapid detection of single bacterium. (a) Schematic presentation of using antibody-conjugated nanoaggregate-embedded beads (NAEBs) as SERS nanoprobes for specific detection of bacteria. (b) Photograph of the microfluidic DEP device and close-up view of central capturing area with four the quadrupole electrodes. (c) The distribution of electric field of four microelectrodes in the microchannel. (d) Schematic illustration of the DEP-SERS configuration. Reproduced with permission [93].
