Resumo

This study shows a new SERS (Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering) and SEF (Surface-enhanced Fluorescence) platform approach, in which substrates were constructed from the silver nanoparticles stabilized by alginate polymer (AgALG) and encapsulated in hydrogel calcium alginate beads (AgALGbead). In this regard, the electrostatic repulsion or attraction concerning the charged dyes and the carboxylate groups of the alginate could define the distances between the probe molecules and metallic nanoparticles to determine the SERS or SEF effect. In this sense, the anionic dye named New Indocyanine Green (IR-820) and the cationic dye Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) were selected to discuss the alginate's ability to quench or enhance the fluorescence and the Raman dyes signals. Furthermore, the SEF effect using the IR-820 dye can be detected for the near-infrared emission (S-1 -> S-0) using the 532 and 633 nm laser lines as well at the visible region (S-2 -> S-0) applying the excitation at 532 nm in the AgALGbead substrates. Nevertheless, the cationic dye provides the Surface-enhanced Resonance Raman Scattering (SERRS) effect and quenching of the fluorescence for the same AgALGbeads substrate at 532 nm laser line.
