Author(s): Adeyinka Aina* and Oluwafemi Michael Adedire
Nanotechnology has rapidly emerged as a cornerstone of modern biomedicine, offering innovative solutions for diagnostics, therapeutics and disease monitoring. Among analytical tools, Raman spectroscopy has distinguished itself as a powerful technique for probing nano-systems at unprecedented resolution. This review explores the integration of advanced Raman modalities such as Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS) and Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) with engineered nanomaterials. Such materials include metallic nanoparticles, polymeric carriers and grapheme-based systems. These synergistic platforms enable precise characterization of structural integrity, biofunctionalization and real-time interactions at the nano-bio interface. Applications span from probiotic encapsulation and viability assessment to rapid pathogen fingerprint.. Read More»
