Abstract
Herein, we report on a sensitive probe for colorimetric detection of uric acid based on the formation of Ag shell
on Au nanorods (Ag/AuNRs) in the presence of uric acid. Uric acid can reduce Ag+ to Ag atoms which deposit on
the surface of AuNRs and form Ag shell. As a result of this phenomenon, the dielectric environment around
AuNRs changes and the longitudinal surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak of AuNRs blue-shifts, leading to the
change of solution color from purple to green. Based on these facts, a colorimetric sensor for the detection of uric
acid in the concentration range of 0.1–1.0 µM with a detection limit of 0.065 µM was developed. The method
was applied for analysis of uric acid in human plasma and urine samples with satisfactory results. The sensor can
be used for uric acid detection even with bare eyes.
