The molecule is prepared by capping phospholipid on a single gold nanoparticle (GNP). Since the thiol-related molecule bounded on GNP shows the characteristic of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), the phospholipid-capped gold nanoparticle (PLGNP) can be formed as a nanoprobe applied on the detection device integrating optics and chemistry and used in the fields of biomedicine, medical diagnosis and environment for detecting, such as solutions containing salts or proteins.
