Abstract
Background
Exosomes, nanoscale extracellular vesicles secreted by various cells, are abundantly present in biological fluids. They have been identified as carriers of specific molecules, suggesting their potential role in early disease detection. However, their clinical application is hindered by several challenges, including the need for large sample volumes for enrichment, limitations of traditional detection methods, and the complexity involved in phenotype analysis and separation.
Objective
This review aims to explore the application of Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) technology in exosome detection. SERS, known for its unique photonic properties and high sensitivity, offers a promising solution for detecting exosomes without the need for large sample volumes or extensive phenotypic analysis. This review focuses on the real-time and non-invasive assessment capabilities of SERS in exosome detection, providing insights into its potential for early disease diagnosis.
Conclusion
The review concludes by emphasizing the potential of SERS-based exosome detection in advancing early disease diagnosis. By overcoming existing challenges, SERS technology offers a promising approach for the development of sensitive and specific diagnostic assays, contributing to better patient outcomes and personalized medicine.
期刊介绍：
The Official Journal of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC)
Clinica Chimica Acta is a high-quality journal which publishes original Research Communications in the field of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, defined as the diagnostic application of chemistry, biochemistry, immunochemistry, biochemical aspects of hematology, toxicology, and molecular biology to the study of human disease in body fluids and cells.
The objective of the journal is to publish novel information leading to a better understanding of biological mechanisms of human diseases, their prevention, diagnosis, and patient management. Reports of an applied clinical character are also welcome. Papers concerned with normal metabolic processes or with constituents of normal cells or body fluids, such as reports of experimental or clinical studies in animals, are only considered when they are clearly and directly relevant to human disease. Evaluation of commercial products have a low priority for publication, unless they are novel or represent a technological breakthrough. Studies dealing with effects of drugs and natural products and studies dealing with the redox status in various diseases are not within the journal''s scope. Development and evaluation of novel analytical methodologies where applicable to diagnostic clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, including point-of-care testing, and topics on laboratory management and informatics will also be considered. Studies focused on emerging diagnostic technologies and (big) data analysis procedures including digitalization, mobile Health, and artificial Intelligence applied to Laboratory Medicine are also of interest.
