Synthetically lapidated peptides possess the self-assembly character of amphiphilic molecules and biological activity of the peptide headgroups. This enables interfaces to be assembled that dehver biofunctionality in a controllable way. Incorporation of peptide amphiphiles in hposomes greatly increases the uptake of synthetic dyes by cells, indicating their potential utility in targeted drag delivery.

FIGURE 8.6 Schematic representation of a new transducer for biosensor application based on a three-dimensional IDEA. Binding of molecules to the chemically modified and biofunctionalized transducer surface induces important conductivity changes between the electrodes, which can be monitored.

Coaxial-ES is a straightforward technology for producing meshes with functional fibers. These individual fibers can consist of a synthetic, nonfunctional core and a biofunctionalized shell. However, the production process is not trivial because control over multiple feeding rates is complicated and compatibility issues can occur.

Although the fabrication and characteristics (material, size, biocompatibility, and others) of the desired SERS-encoded particles strongly depend on each specific application, all of them share some common requirements (a) the presence of an optical enhancer, (b) the addition of the SERS code, and (c) protection with a silica or polymer of the SERS code from leaching while providing a suitable surface for biofunctionalization [26, 27].
