Dong et al. [124] described an immunosensor for staphylococcal enter-otoxin Cl (SECl), using an electrochemical self-assembled gold electrode. The set-up comprises a three-electrode system and a layer of antibody to SECl, which is detected electrochemically at a constant antibody concentration. Fourier transform spectroscopy was used to confirm the adsorption of the SECl antibody onto the gold electrode and the association of SECl antigen and antibody.

By making the Au nanorods liom hydrophilic to hydrophobic, the nanorods can be made to self-assemble on a substrate by simple evaporation (63). Au nanorods prepared using hexadecyl trimethylammonium bromide are hydrophilic. But they can be made hydrophobic by treating them with mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane and octadecyltrimethoxy silane. Depending on the concentration of the nanorods in the solution, they assemble either parallel to the substrate (at low concentration) or perpendicular to the substrate (at higher concentration). Nanorod arrays can also be prepared by electrochemieal self-assembly on substrates (64). For example, Mn, Co doped ZnO nanorod arrays on Cu substrates have been prepared by electrochemical self-assembly...
