This study compares the applications of two photonic techniques, fluorescence nanoscopy and optoplasmonic sensing, in single-molecule sensing. By examining the measured single-molecule kinetics, the influence of fluorescent labels and different sensing geometries was investigated. The results demonstrate that DNA dissociation is affected by geometric factors, while DNA association is not significantly altered by fluorescent labels.
We report a comparison of two photonic techniques for single-molecule sensing: fluorescence nanoscopy and optoplasmonic sensing. As the test system, oligonucleotides with and without fluorescent labels are transiently hybridized to complementary docking strands attached to gold nanorods. Comparing the measured single-molecule kinetics helps to examine the influence of the fluorescent labels as well as factors arising from different sensing geometries. Our results demonstrate that DNA dissociation is not significantly altered by the fluorescent labels and that DNA association is affected by geometric factors in the two techniques. These findings open the door to exploiting plasmonic sensing and fluorescence nanoscopy in a complementary fashion, which will aid in building more powerful sensors and uncovering the intricate effects that influence the behavior of single molecules.
