Abstract
One of the lessons we learned from the COVID-19 pandemic is that the need for ultrasensitive detection systems is now more critical than ever. While sensors' sensitivity, portability, selectivity, and low cost are crucial, new ways to couple synergistic methods enable the highest performance levels. This review article critically discusses the synergetic combinations of optical and electrochemical methods. We also discuss three key application fields-energy, biomedicine, and environment. Finally, we selected the most promising approaches and examples, the open challenges in sensing, and ways to overcome them. We expect this work to set a clear reference for developing and understanding strategies, pros and cons of different combinations of electrochemical and optical sensors integrated into a single device.

Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:308.

Abstract
A convenient self-assembly method is proposed for synthesis of 3D Au/MOF-808 (Zr) composite nanostructures with a cerium metal-organic framework loaded with gold nanoparticles. We combine adsorption properties of MOF materials with surface plasmon resonance of noble metals to construct hotspot-dense 3D Au/MOF-808 (Zr) SERS substrates, by using a two-step method of solvothermal and reduction reactions. The results show that optimal SERS substrates are obtained from a volume ratio of gold nanoparticles to MOF-808 (Zr) solution of 4:1 and a self-assembly time of 2 h. Rhodamine 6G (R6G) is used as a molecular probe to characterize and analyze SERS properties of substrates of 3D Au/MOF-808 (Zr) prepared under the optimal process conditions, where the substrates are capable to detect R6G concentrations down to 10-10 M with a relative standard deviation of 8.81%. Finally, we applied the SERS substrates of 3D Au/MOF-808 (Zr) to the detection of pesticide thiram, and establish a quantitative determination method. 3D Au/MOF-808 (Zr) provides a sensitive detection of thiram in lake water by SERS with a detection limit of 1.49 × 10-9 M. Application tests show that a SERS enhancement factor of the MOF-based SERS substrates for the detection of thiram can be significantly increased to 5.91 × 105. Thus, the above results indicate that such substrate has high sensitivity, good adsorption, homogeneity, and reproducibility, which can be extended for sensitive detection of pesticide residues in food and environment.

Abstract
Considering pesticide residues cause significant harm to public health and the environment, developing a simple, sensitive, and reliable approach to pesticide residue detection to address this issue is necessary. In this study, an ultrasensitive and reliable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor was developed using cetylpyridinium chloride as a protecting and reducing agent for the in situ synthesis and self-assembly of C-Ag nanoparticles on nanoporous GaN for the quantitative detection of thiram. A systematic investigation of the performance of the SERS sensor revealed that the SERS sensor delivered a limit of detection (LOD) of 10-14 M and an enhancement factor of up to 1.80 × 1011 with reasonable uniformity and reproducibility, with the stability of the SERS sensor demonstrated via long-term storage for up to 22 weeks in air. The enhancement mechanism of the SERS sensor was verified using a finite-difference time-domain simulation. The SERS sensor successfully detected thiram in real samples with an LOD of 10-10 M. Hence, this study provides an effective platform for monitoring food safety and the environment.

Abstract
Environmental monitoring of pesticide residues in crops is essential for both food safety and environmental protection. Traditional methodologies face challenges due to the interference of endogenous compounds in peel and pulp tissues, often being invasive, labor-intensive, and inadequate for real-time observation of hazardous substance distribution. In this study, dynamic borohydride-reduced nanoparticles were employed as enhanced substrates. For the first time, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) imaging was harnessed to enable whole-process visual detection of pesticide residues. The developed method is both stable and sensitive, boasting a detection lower limit below 1 pg/mL, coupled with robust quantitative analytical capabilities. This technique was successfully employed to detect residue signals across various crops and fruit juices. Furthermore, SERS imaging was utilized to map the distribution of pesticide residues from the exterior to the interior of fruits and vegetables. Vertex component analysis further refined the process by mitigating interference from plant autofluorescence. Collectively, this innovative strategy facilitates comprehensive pesticide residue monitoring, offering a potent tool for controlling hazardous substances in crops. Its potential applications extend beyond food safety, holding significant promise for sustainable agricultural production and enhanced environmental safeguarding.

Abstract
Pesticide residues in agri-foods have risk to human health and one solution is to develop simple and accurate methods for rapid detection. We developed a SERS sensor composed of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and bacterial cellulose nanocrystal (BCNC) to detect thiram in fruit juice. BCNC-SO3H was used as a stabilizer to support AuNPs via electrostatic repulsion, fabricating a BCNC-AuNPs SERS substrate with uniformly distributed AuNPs. This BCNC-AuNPs SERS substrate was applied to determine thiram residues in peach juice, apple juice, and grape juice with the limits of detection of 0.036 ppm, 0.044 ppm, and 0.044 ppm, respectively. The whole test took 12 min including sample preparation and analysis. The detection limits meet the maximum residue levels of thiram in fruit juices required by China, Europe and North America, indicating that this BCNC-based substrate could serve as a satisfactory SERS sensor for pesticide residue monitoring in the food supply chain.

Abstract
Flexible surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) nanosensors, constructed by integration of plasmonic nanostructures with polymeric substrates, have received increasing research interests for recent decades. When compared to abundant works on optimization of the plasmonic nanostructures, the research involving the influence of polymeric substrates on analytical performance of resultant flexible SESR nanosensors is unexpectedly limited. Herein, the ultra-thin silver layer has been deposited on the electrospun polyurethane (ePU) nanofibrous membranes via vacuum evaporation to prepare the flexible SRES nanosensors. Interestingly, we find that the molecular weight and polydispersion index of synthesized PU play important roles in regulating the fine morphology of electrospun nanofibers, which in turns determine the Raman enhancement of resultant flexible SERS nanosensors. Specifically, the optimized SERS nanosensor, obtained by evaporating 10 nm silver layer on top of nanofibers derived from electrospinning of PU with a weight-average molecular weight of 140,354 and polydispersion index of 1.26, enables label-free detection of the carcinogen of aflatoxin down to 0.1 nM. Thanks to its scalable fabrication and good sensitivity, the current work opens new way for design of cost-effective flexible SERS nanosensors for environmental monitoring and food security applications.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful technique of vibrational spectroscopy based on the inelastic scattering of incident photons by molecular species. It has unique properties such as ultra-sensitivity, selectivity, non-destructivity, speed, and fingerprinting properties for analytical and sensing applications. This enables SERS to be widely used in real-world sample analysis and basic plasmonic mechanistic studies. However, the desirable properties of SERS are compromised by the high cost and low reproducibility of the signals. The development of multifunctional, stable and reusable nano-engineered SERS substrates is a viable solution to circumvent these drawbacks. Recently, plasmonic SERS active nano-substrates with various morphologies have attracted the attention of researchers due to promising properties such as the formation of dense hot spots, additional stability, tunable and controlled morphology, and surface functionalization. This comprehensive review focused on the current advances in the field of SERS active nanosubstrates suitable for the detection and quantification of anionic environmental pollutants. The common fabrication methods, including the techniques for morphological adjustments and surface modification, substrate categories, and the design of nanotechnologically fabricated plasmonic SERS substrates for anion detection are systematically presented. Here, the need for the design, synthesis, and functionalization of SERS nano-substrates for anions of great environmental importance is explained in detail. In addition, the broad categories of SERS nano-substrates, namely colloid-based SERS substrates and solid-support SERS substrates are discussed. Moreover, a brief discussion of SERS detection of certain anionic pollutants in the environment is presented. Finally, the prospects in the fabrication and commercialization of pilot-scale handheld SERS sensors and the construction of smart nanosubstrates integrated with novel amplifying materials for the detection of anions of environmental and health concern are proposed.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) optofluidic sensor coupled with immunoprobes to simultaneously separate and detect the foodborne pathogens, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Salmonella in lettuce and packed salad. The method consists of three steps of (i) enrichment to enhance detection sensitivity, (ii) selective separation and labelling of target bacteria by their specific antibody-bearing SERS-nanotags and (iii) detection of tagged bacterial cells using SERS within a hydrodynamic flow-focusing SERS optofluidic device, where even low counts of bacterial cells were detectable in the very thin-film-like sample stream. SERS-nanotags consisted of different Raman reporter molecules, representing each species, i.e., the detection of Raman reporter confirms the presence of the target pathogen. The anti-E. coli antibody used in this study functions against all strains of E. coli O157:H7 and the anti-Salmonella antibody used in this work acts on a wide range of Salmonella enterica strains. Bacterial counts of 1000, 100, and 10 CFU/ 200 g sample were successfully detected after only 15 min enrichment. Our method showed a very low detection limit value of 10 CFU/ 200 g sample for the bacterial mixture in both lettuce and packed salad, proving the efficiency and high sensitivity of our method to detect multiple pathogens in the food samples. The total analysis time, including sample preparation for simultaneous detection of multiple bacteria, was estimated to be 2 h, which is much less than the time required in conventional methods. Hence, our proposed protocol is considered a promising rapid and efficient approach for pathogen screening of food samples.

Abstract
Potato is one of the most important food crops worldwide in terms of human consumption. However, potato farmers employ a variety of pesticides to protect crops from harmful insects and illnesses, and difenoconazole is a commonly used one that has severe effects on human health and the environment. Therefore, detecting difenoconazole quickly and correctly is critical. In this work, we fabricated AgNPs/cicada wing substrates using natural cicada segments, decorated with silver nanoparticles for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurements to detect trace amounts of difenoconazole in potatoes. Results indicated that a linear relationship with the coefficient of detection (R2) of 0.987 and the detection limit (LOD) of 0.016 ppm was observed by targeting a distinctive peak at 808 cm-1 and logarithmic difenoconazole concentrations of 0.1 to 100 ppm. In addition, difenoconazole LODs in potatoes were 63 μg/kg, lower than those specified by the EU (0.1 mg/kg) and Vietnam (4 mg/kg) utilizing this new technique. Therefore, this proposed SERS method could be used to detect difenoconazole in potatoes at trace levels.

Abstract
Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer and deserves the special attention of the scientific community because it represents a sustainable source of carbon and plays an important role as a sustainable energent for replacing crude oil, coal, and natural gas in the future. Intense research and studies over the past few decades on cellulose structures have mainly focused on cellulose as a biomass for exploitation as an alternative energent or as a reinforcing material in polymer matrices. However, studies on cellulose structures have revealed more diverse potential applications by exploiting the functionalities of cellulose such as biomedical materials, biomimetic optical materials, bio-inspired mechanically adaptive materials, selective nanostructured membranes, and as a growth template for inorganic nanostructures. This article comprehensively reviews the potential of cellulose structures as a support, biotemplate, and growing vector in the formation of various complex hybrid hierarchical inorganic nanostructures with a wide scope of applications. We focus on the preparation of inorganic nanostructures by exploiting the unique properties and performances of cellulose structures. The advantages, physicochemical properties, and chemical modifications of the cellulose structures are comparatively discussed from the aspect of materials development and processing. Finally, the perspective and potential applications of cellulose-based bioinspired hierarchical functional nanomaterials in the future are outlined.

Abstract
A new approach is presented to fabricate flexible surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate of Ag nanocubes monolayer-modified polydimethylsiloxane (Ag NCs/PDMS) through a powerful three-phase interface self-assemble method. The morphologies and crystal structures were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The self-assembled Ag NCs/PDMS substrate exhibited high SERS activity and good signal homogeneity, which was successfully used for quantitative detection of thiram; the detection limit reached 10 ng/mL, and the linear range is 10-1000 ng/mL. Furthermore, the flexible SERS substrates were successfully employed to detect thiram residues on factual apple samples, and trace amount (1 ng/cm2) of thiram residues was detected on apple peels. The excellent SERS detection ability of self-assembled Ag NCs/PDMS substrate indicated that it will play an important role in pesticide detection in the future.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass from agricultural residues serves as the critical component to replace synthetic polymeric materials in the coming future. Agricultural residues can be used to obtain cellulose by delignification followed by bleaching. Further, cellulose is converted into nanocellulose by various methods. Nanocellulose is used in multiple pharmaceutical applications as a polymer in hydrogels, transdermal drug delivery systems, aerogels, wound healing dressing materials, as superdisintegrants in fast dissolving tablets, emulgel, microparticles, gels, foams, thickening agents, stabilizers, cosmetics, medical implants, tissue engineering, liposomes, food and composites, etc. This review provides detailed knowledge about the nature of nanocellulose regarding its high surface area, high polymerization, loading, and binding capacity of hydrophilic and hydrophobic active pharmaceutical ingredients and significance of various applications of nanocellulose. Biocompatible and non-toxic, it makes it an ideal material for applications in the biomedical field. A significant advantage is a biocompatibility, which is non-toxic for many biomedical applications.

Abstract
Paper is a popular platform material in all areas of sensor research due to its porosity, large surface area, and biodegradability, to name but a few. Many paper-based nanocomposites have been reported in the last decade as novel substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). However, there are still limiting factors, like the low density of hot spots or loss of wettability. Herein, we designed a process to fabricate a silver-chitosan nanocomposite layer on paper celluloses by a layer-by-layer method and pH-triggered chitosan assembly. Under microscopic observation, the resulting material showed a nanoporous structure, and silver nanoparticles were anchored evenly over the nanocomposite layer. In SERS measurement, the detection limit of 4-aminothiophenol was 5.13 ppb. Furthermore, its mechanical property and a strategy toward further biosensing approaches were investigated.

Face-to-Face Assembly of Ag Nanoplates on Filter Papers for Pesticide Detection by Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:1398.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technology has been regarded as a most efficient and sensitive strategy for the detection of pollutants at ultra-low concentrations. Fabrication of SERS substrates is of key importance in obtaining the homogeneous and sensitive SERS signals. Cellulose filter papers loaded with plasmonic metal NPs are well known as cost-effective and efficient paper-based SERS substrates. In this manuscript, face-to-face assembly of silver nanoplates via solvent-evaporation strategies on the cellulose filter papers has been developed for the SERS substrates. Furthermore, these developed paper-based SERS substrates are utilized for the ultra-sensitive detection of the rhodamine 6G dye and thiram pesticides. Our theoretical studies reveal the creation of high density hotspots, with a huge localized and enhanced electromagnetic field, near the corners of the assembled structures, which justifies the ultrasensitive SERS signal in the fabricated paper-based SERS platform. This work provides an excellent paper-based SERS substrate for practical applications, and one which can also be beneficial to human health and environmental safety.

Abstract
The uneven distribution of metal nanoparticles is a vital influencing factor in the poor uniformity of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates, which is a challenge in SERS quantitative analysis. Recent reports showed that the reproducibility of a nonuniform SERS substrate can be effectively improved by the use of an internal standard (IS). However, most of these approaches require the investment of time for precise regulation, and those approaches based on the addition of an IS are specific to a certain substrate. In this work, we proposed a simple, rapid and universal method to incorporate an IS into a SERS substrate for improving the reproducibility of Raman signals based on the systematic evaluation of the influencing factors of the competitive adsorption between the IS and the target analytes. Following the proposed pressure drop-coating (PDC) method, an IS-modified gold nanobipyramids (Au NBPs)/anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) SERS substrate was fabricated within 1 min, showing high reproducibility of Raman signals. In addition, the IS-modified Au NBPs/AAO SERS substrate was successfully applied to analyze thiram in freshly squeezed apple juice and the result showed a stable Raman signal with a relative standard deviation of less than 6.00%. What is more, three different commercial SERS chips were modified with an IS molecule using the PDC method. Compared to the traditional SERS chips, the Raman signal reproducibility of the functionalized SERS chips was improved significantly. Since the addition of an IS is not based on a certain substrate, the proposed approach could be useful for all the researchers working in the field of SERS.

Abstract
Engineering of efficient plasmonic hotspots has been receiving great attention to enhance the sensitivity of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). In the present study, we propose a highly sensitive SERS platform based on Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) on Au island film (AuIF) with a spacer layer of 1,4-benzenedimethanethiol (BDMT). The three-dimensional (3D) hotspot matrix has been rationally designed based on the idea of employing 3D hotspots with a vertical nanogap between AuIF and AuNPs after generating large area two-dimensional hotspots of AuIF. AuNPs@BDMT@AuIF are fabricated by functionalizing BDMT on AuIF and then immobilizing AuNPs. The SERS performance is investigated with Rhodamine 6G as a probe molecule and the determined enhancement factor is 1.3 × 105. The AuNPs@BDMT@AuIF are then employed to detect thiram, which is used as a fungicide, with a detection limit of 13 nM. Our proposed platform thus shows significant potential for use in highly sensitive SERS sensors.

Abstract
The construction of a highly sensitive and reproducible surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate is the key factor that restricts its practical application. In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) SERS substrate based on ordered micropyramid array and silver nanoparticles (MPA/AgNPs 3D-SERS) was constructed using the roll-to-plate embossing technology and a hydrothermal method, which provided an efficient and low-cost preparation process for the SERS substrate. Using rhodamine 6G (R6G) as a probe molecule, the performance of an MPA/AgNP 3D-SERS substrate was studied in detail, whose minimum detection limit was 10-12 M and the enhancement factor was calculated as 8.8 × 109, indicating its high sensitivity. In addition, the minimum relative standard deviation (RSD) for the MPA/AgNP 3D-SERS substrate was calculated as 4.99%, and SERS performance basically had no loss after 12 days of placement, which indicated that the prepared SERS substrate had excellent stability and repeatability. At last, the thiram detection application of the MPA/AgNP 3D-SERS substrate was also investigated. The results showed that the minimum detection limit was 1 × 10-7 M, and quantitative analysis of pesticide residues could be realized. This research could provide useful guidance for the efficient and low-cost fabrication of highly sensitive and reproducible SERS substrates.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a widely used analytical tool that allows molecular fingerprint-based ultra-sensitive detection through an enhanced electromagnetic field generated by plasmonic metal nanoparticles (MNPs) by virtue of their localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). Although significant progress has been made in the design and fabrication of a variety of SERS substrates, MNP-decorated electrospun nanofibrous (NF) mats have attracted much attention due to their unique nanoscale structural and functional properties. This review focuses on the current state of the art in the fabrication of plasmonic NF mats with the main focus on the pre-mix, in situ, and ex situ approaches. The characteristic functional advantages and limitations of these strategies are also highlighted, which might be helpful for the research community when adopting a suitable approach. The potential of these plasmonic NF mats as a SERS-active optical sensor substrate, and their performance parameters such as the limit of detection, analytical range, and enhancement factor, and real-world applications are also discussed. The summary and futuristic discussion in this review might be of significant value in developing plasmonic NF mat-based SERS-active point-of-care diagnostic chips for a wide range of applications.

A "drop-wipe-test" protocol was developed for rapid detection of pesticide residues in vegetables by SERS. Tremendously enhanced Raman scattering signals were obtained from the quartz/CNF/mixture (AgNP + AuNS) substrate, which were much higher than the paper/mixture (AgNP + AuNS) substrate. This method was used to detect ferbam on kale leaves within a few minutes and the detection limit was 50 μg/kg based on the PLS models (R2 = 0.89). The enhancement factor of the SERS substrate was calculated to be ~ 104 with satisfactory reproducibility. Satisfactory SERS performance could be achieved within 1-month storage period. These results demonstrate that this CNF-based SERS/wiper method is a practical approach for rapid detection of chemical contaminants in fresh produce.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a facile and cost-effective electrospinning technique to fabricate surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates, which is appropriate for multiple analytes detection. First of all, HAuCl4∙3H2O was added into the TEOS/PVP precursor solution, and flexible SiO2 nanofibers incorporated with gold nanoparticles (SiO2@Au) were prepared by electrospinning and calcination. Subsequently, the nanofibrous membranes were immersed in the tannic acid and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane solution for surface modification through Michael addition reaction. Finally, the composite nanofibers (Ag@T-A@SiO2@Au) were obtained by the in-situ growth of Ag nanoparticles on the surfaces of nanofibers with tannic acid as a reducing agent. Due to the synergistic enhancement of Au and Ag nanoparticles, the flexible and self-supporting composite nanofibrous membranes have excellent SERS properties. Serving as SERS substrates, they are extremely sensitive to the detection of 4-mercaptophenol and 4-mercaptobenzoic acid, with an enhancement factor of 108. Moreover, they could be utilized to detect analytes such as pesticide thiram at a low concentration of 10-8 mol/L, and the substrates retain excellent Raman signals stability during the durability test of 60 days. Furthermore, the as-fabricated substrates, as a versatile SERS platform, could be used to detect bacteria of Staphylococcus aureus without a specific and complicated bacteria-aptamer conjugation procedure, and the detection limit is up to 103 colony forming units/mL. Meanwhile, the substrates also show an excellent repeatability of SERS response for S. aureus organelles. Briefly, the prime novelty of this work is the fabrication of Au/Ag bimetallic synergetic enhancement substrates as SERS platform for versatile detection with high sensitivity and stability.

Abstract
The development of substrate with high sensitivity and good reproducibility for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of contaminants in foods has attracted more and more attention. Herein, a stable two-dimensional (2D) Au-Ag core-shell nanorods (Au@Ag NRs) nanoarray substrate with high-performance SERS activity was developed based on interface self-assembly strategy and successfully applied to the detection of thiram in apple sample. A broad linearity range of 0.01-10 mg/L and a low limit of detection of 0.018 mg/L were achieved for thiram solution. The substrate was stable and exhibited satisfactory sensitivity after preserving at ambient temperature for 4 weeks. Furthermore, this method presented the comparable result to that acquired from high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with satisfactory recoveries of 93-116%. The study indicated that the prepared Au@Ag NRs nanoarray substrate was promising for SERS detection of contaminants such as pesticides in foods.

Abstract
Silver nanoplates were for the first time synthesized on electrospun chitosan/polyethylene oxide (CS/PEO) fibers via tollens reaction. Ag nanoplates/CS/PEO fibers were used as the SERS-active substrates for quantitative evaluation of 2-naphthylthiol, with an enhancement factor (1.41 ± 0.07) × 106. The SERS-active substrates are flexible, stable, and easy for transportion and preservation, and act as the SERS platform for sensitive detection of the target. Thiram and thiabendazole as the representatives of pesticide residues were identified and detected by the Ag nanoplates/CS/PEO fibers, exhibiting linear response ranges from 10-11 to 10-7 M with a detection limit of 10-11 M. The Ag nanoplates/CS/PEO fibers meet the requirement of thiram detection in practical samples, such as apple, pear, tomato, and cucumber juices. The strategy revealed the feasibility of fabrication of Ag nanoplates on electrospun fibers via tollens reaction and SERS sensing of pesticides in real samples. Ag nanoplates/CS/PEO fibers were fabricated by tollens reaction and electrospinning for SERS sensing of pesticide residues with high sensitivity.

Abstract
With the globalization of food and its complicated networking system, a wide range of food contaminants is introduced into the food system which may happen accidentally, intentionally, or naturally. This situation has made food safety a critical global concern nowadays and urged the need for effective technologies capable of dealing with the detection of food contaminants as efficiently as possible. Hence, Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been taken as one of the primary choices for this case, due to its extremely high sensitivity, rapidity, and fingerprinting interpretation capabilities which account for its competency to detect a molecule up to a single level. Here in this paper, we present a comprehensive review of various SERS-based novel approaches applied for direct and indirect detection of single and multiple chemical and microbial contaminants in food, food products as well as water. The aim of this paper is to arouse the interest of researchers by addressing recent SERS-based, novel achievements and developments related to the investigation of hazardous chemical and microbial contaminants in edible foods and water. The target chemical and microbial contaminants are antibiotics, pesticides, food adulterants, Toxins, bacteria, and viruses. In this paper, different aspects of SERS-based reports have been addressed including synthesis and use of various forms of SERS nanostructures for the detection of a specific analyte, the coupling of SERS with other analytical tools such as chromatographic methods, combining analyte capture and recognition strategies such as molecularly imprinted polymers and aptasensor as well as using multivariate statistical analyses such as principal component analysis (PCA)to distinguish between results. In addition, we also report some strengths and limitations of SERS as well as future viewpoints concerning its application in food safety.

Abstract
A nanocomposite based on nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC) coated with gold-silver (core-shell) nanoparticles (Au@Ag NPs) was developed as a novel surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrate. SERS performance of NFC/Au@Ag NP nanocomposite was tested by 4-mercaptobenzoic acid. The cellulose nanofibril network was a suitable platform that allowed Au@Ag NPs to be evenly distributed and stabilized over the substrate, providing more SERS hotspots for the measurement. Two pesticides, thiram and paraquat, were successfully detected either individually or as a mixture in lettuce by SERS coupled with the nanocomposite. Strong Raman scattering signals for both thiram and paraquat were obtained within a Raman shift range of 400-2000 cm-1 and a Raman intensity ~ 8 times higher than those acquired by NFC/Au NP nanocomposite. Characteristic peaks were clearly observable in all SERS spectra even at a low concentration of 10 μg/L of pesticides. Limit of detection values of 71 and 46 μg/L were obtained for thiram and paraquat, respectively. Satisfactory SERS performance, reproducibility, and sensitivity of NFC/Au@Ag NP nanocomposite validate its applicability for real-world analysis to monitor pesticides and other contaminants in complex food matrices within a short acquisition time.

Abstract
Flexible plasmonic Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates were fabricated using cellulose textile fibers, in which the textile fibers were recycled from waste paper in an eco-friendly way. The Glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTAC) with positive charges was grafted onto the surface of the cellulose textile fibers through cationization. Plasmonic silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with negative charges were decorated onto the cellulose textile fibers via electrostatic interactions. After cationization, the variation range of the diameter of the cellulose textile fibers was significantly increased because part of the cellulose was dissolved under alkaline condition, leading to more 'hot spots' for SERS during the shrinking process. The cellulose textile fiber-Ag NPs nanocomposite was employed for monitoring bisphenol A (BPA) in water and soft drink by SERS and the sensitivity of BPA detection achieved 50 ppb. The recovery values of BPA in soda water samples were from 96% to 105%. These results illustrate that the cellulose textile fiber-Ag NPs nanocomposite can be used as flexible, high sensitivity SERS substrates for detecting harmful ingredients in food or environment.

Abstract
Phenyl-modified graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (Ph-g-C3N4 NSs) were synthesized by a thermal copolymerization and ultrasonic exfoliation method. The Ph-g-C3N4 NSs are used as a fluorescent assay for determination of thiram. The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, 13C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared spectra confirm that phenyl group is integrated into the heptazine network of g-C3N4. Compared to the g-C3N4 NSs, the Ph-g-C3N4 NSs show bigger stokes shift about 185 nm and higher fluorescence intensity. The fluorescence of Ph-g-C3N4 NSs is quenched by Cu2+ via the photo-induced electron transfer mechanism, which then recovers in the presence of thiram. The fluorescence restoring of Ph-g-C3N4 NSs is correlated with the concentration of thiram. Under the optimized conditions, the fluorescent intensity of g-C3N4 NSs at excitation/emission wavelengths of 310/455 nm give a linear range of 33.0-670 nM with detection limit of 9.90 nM. While fluorescent assay based on the Ph-g-C3N4 NSs show the linear range of 6.70-1300 nM at excitation/emission wavelengths of 310/495 nm with detection limit of 2.01 nM.

Abstract
The formation of hot spots is an effective approach to improve the performance of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Silk nanoribbons (SNRs), with a height of about 1-2 nm, and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) were assembled by electrostatic interactions to introduce sandwich hot spot structures. These sandwich structures were optimized by tuning the ratio of SNRs and AuNPs, resulting in strong SERS signals with a sensitivity of 10-13 M and enhancement factor (EF) of 5.8 × 106. Improved SERS spectrum uniformity with relative standard deviation (RSD) about 11.2% was also achieved due to the homogeneous distribution of these hot spot structures. The inherent biocompatibility of SNRs and facile fabrication processes utilized endowed the SERS substrates significant benefits toward biomedical applications, confirmed by cytocompatibility and improved SERS bioimaging capacity in vitro. The results of this study suggest the feasibility of forming high performance bioimaging systems through the use of naturally derived materials with special nanostructures.

Abstract
The Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites, as the multifunctional magnetic surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates, were fabricated successfully by the seeds growth method based on the Fe3O4-Au core-satellite nanocomposites. The SERS properties of the Fe3O4-Au core-satellite nanocomposites and the Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites were compared using 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) as the probe molecule. It was found that Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites showed better SERS performance than Fe3O4-Au core-satellite nanocomposites. The Au shell provided an effectively large surface area for forming sufficient plasmonic hot spots and capturing target molecules. The integration of magnetic core and plasmonic Au nanocrystals endowed the Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites with highly efficient magnetic separation and enrichment ability and abundant interparticle hot spots. The Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites could be easily recycled because of the intrinsic magnetism of the Fe3O4 cores and had good reproducibility of the SERS signals. For practical application, the Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites were also used to detect thiram. There was a good linear relationship between the SERS signal intensity and the concentration of thiram from 1 × 10-3 to 1 × 10-8 M and the limit of detection was 7.69 × 10-9 M. Moreover, residual thiram on apple peel was extracted and detected with a recovery rate range of 99.3%. The resulting substrate with high SERS activity, stability and strong magnetic responsivity makes the Fe3O4@Au core-shell nanocomposites a perfect choice for practical SERS detection applications.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) can be used for the detection of trace amounts of pesticides in foods to ensure consumer safety. In this perspective, we highlight the trends of SERS-based assays in pesticide detection and the various challenges associated with their selectivity, reproducibility, and nonspecific binding. We also discuss and compare the target analyte capture techniques, such as the use of antibodies, aptamers, and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), coupled with SERS to overcome the drawbacks as mentioned above. In addition, issues related to the nonspecific binding of analytes and its potential solution are discussed.

Abstract
As an important sort of dithiocarbamate bactericide, thiram has been widely used for fruits, vegetables and mature crops to control various fungal diseases; however, the thiram residues in the environment pose a serious threat to human health. In this work, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were grown in-situ on cotton swab (CS) surfaces, based on the mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) molecule and designed as highly sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) swabs for the conformal rapid detection of bactericide residues. With this strategy, the obtained CS@PDA@AgNPs swabs demonstrated highly sensitive and reproducible Raman signals toward Nile blue A (NBA) probe molecules, and the detection limit was as low as 1.0 × 10-10 M. More critically, these CS@PDA@AgNPs swabs could be served as flexible SERS substrates for the conformal rapid detection of thiram bactericides from various fruit surfaces through a simple swabbing approach. The results showed that the detection limit of thiram residues from pear, grape and peach surfaces was approximately down to the level of 0.12 ng/cm2, 0.24 ng/cm2 and 0.15 ng/cm2 respectively, demonstrating a high sensitivity and excellent reliability toward dithiocarbamate bactericides. Not only could these SERS swabs significantly promote the collection efficiency of thiram residues from irregular shaped matrices, but they could also greatly enhance the analytical sensitivity and reliability, and would have great potential for the on-site detection of residual bactericides in the environment and in bioscience fields.

Abstract
Nanocellulose is an abundant green resource that, owing to the larger surface area, length, and diameter of the fibers, can be used as a framework for loading Ag nanoparticles and serve as substrate for surface enhancement Raman scattering (SERS). These properties would cause the hydroxyl groups on the surface to adsorb the Ag ions and reduce them to Ag seed to form a load fulcrum. This paper presents a convenient and environmentally friendly method for the fabrication of silver-nanocellulose composites (NCF-Ag). A commonly used pesticide, carbendazim (CBZ), was used as a SERS probe to evaluate the properties of NCF-Ag. The results showed that NCF-Ag possesses good homogeneity, reproducibility, and stability. Additionally, CBZ was found to have a low limit of detection (LOD), i.e., 1.0 × 10−8 M, which indicates the possibility for trace analysis. Furthermore, it presents good linearity with R2 = 0.98 at 1007 and 1270 cm−1 in the range from 10−4~10−7 M CBZ.
