Title: Shi Xuan Leong: Advancing Multiplexed SERS Analysis

Introduction

Shi Xuan Leong is an inventor associated with Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Her patent work focuses on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), a technique for analyzing substances through their molecular signals.

Latest Patents

Leong is named on 1 patent, titled “Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) Platform for Analysis.” The invention describes a SERS chip designed to generate multiple SERS profiles from one or more analytes in a sample. It uses Raman probes made from SERS-active nanoparticles grafted with receptor molecules. Different receptors can be used across probes or substrates, allowing the chip to respond to different analytes.

The disclosed method contacts the chip with a sample, collects SERS signals, and combines them into a profile. A device configured with a trained model can then use that profile to identify suspected analytes.

Career Highlights

The patent reflects Leong’s contribution to analytical technology that combines molecular sensing with computational identification. By enabling multiple profiles to be generated from a sample, the platform is designed to support the detection of more than one analyte.

Collaborations

Leong’s listed coworkers include Xing Yi Ling and In Yee Phang. The patent is associated with Nanyang Technological University.

Conclusion

Shi Xuan Leong’s patented SERS platform brings together receptor-based sensing and model-assisted analysis to identify analytes, highlighting her contribution to innovation at Nanyang Technological University.
