Figure 2From: Rapid and simultaneous detection of human hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus antibodies based on a protein chip assay using nano-gold immunological amplification and silver staining method Comparison of UV-Vis spectra between colloidal nano-gold and nano-gold-SPA probes. The dash dot curve denoted UV-Vis spectrum of colloidal nano-gold within the range of 400-700 nm. The solid curve denoted UV-Vis spectrum of colloidal gold-SPA probes within the range of 400-700 nm. A(gold)/520 was 1.636920, whereas A(gold-SPA)/520 was 1.185927, and the loss of colloidal nano-gold was about 27.55%, which was due to centrifugation during preparation of nano-gold-SPA probes.Back to article page
