To immobilize biomolecules on a gold substrate, COOH-terminated alkanethiol SAMs are preferably employed. Thiol molecules adsorption on gold surface was performed using thioglycolic acid (TGA, HS-CH2-COOH) monomers and a self-assembled technique. Characterization by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy revealed gold–sulfur (Au–S) bonding through confirming the presence and disappearance of thiol molecules on the Au surface before and after the sample’s immersion in the TGA solution. Moreover, FTIR spectra also proved the presence of carboxyl molecules (C=O; OH) at the free end on the gold nanoparticle (AuNP) surface. Quantitative analysis of the carboxyl molecules interacted with methylene blue (MB) ones, and then identification by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy showed that the average density of the carboxyl molecules on the free end of the alkanethiol SAM was about 3.9 × 1014 molecules per cm2 Keywords: Au–S bond, self-assembled monolayer (SAM), thioglycolic acid (TGA), carboxyl molecular density date: 2012 date_type: published publisher: IOP Science official_url: http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2043-6262/3/4/045008 contact_email: cuongnk@vnu.edu.vn full_text_status: public publication: Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology volume: 3 number: 4 pagerange: 045008-5 pp refereed: TRUE issn: 2043-6262 referencetext: [1] Bryant M A and Pemberton J E 1991 J.
