Abstract
The separation and detection of multi-component mixtures has always been a challenging task. Traditional detection methods often suffer from complex operation, high cost, and low sensitivity. Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique is a high sensitivity, powerful and rapid detection tool, which can realize the specific detection of single substance components, but it must solve the problem that multi-component mixtures cannot be accurately determined. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) technology, as a high-throughput separation technology, uses chromatographic plate as the stationary phase, and could select different developing phases for separation experiments. The advantages of TLC technology in short distance and rapid separation are widely used in protein, dye and biomedical fields. However, TLC technology has limitations in detection ability and difficulty in obtaining ideal signal intensity. The combination of TLC technology and SERS technology made the operation procedure simple and the sample size small, which can achieve rapid on-site separation and quantitative detection of mixtures. Due to the rapid development of TLC-SERS technology, it has been widely used in the investigation of various complex systems. This paper reviews the application of TLC-SERS technology in food science, environmental pollution and biomedicine.

Abstract
A facile cotton fabric with a built-in TLC-SERS structure was fabricated to demonstrate an integrated TLC separation and SERS identification of mixed dyes. The soft and flexible SERS fabric was firstly fabricated using a simple method in which gold nanoparticles were in-situ synthesized on cotton fabrics by heating. β-CD was then grafted onto cotton fabric through crosslinking with citric acid in presence of sodium hypophosphite monohydrate via esterification reaction. The adsorption and TLC development performance of β-CD grafted fabrics were comprehensively investigated with two organic dyes, one anionic dye and one nonionic dye. Besides, the recyclable adsorption and separation performance were tested to evaluate its sustainable application prospects. It displayed less adsorption capacity loss and reusable separation performance after several cycles than the pristine cotton fabrics. Finally, two sets of mixed dyes were successfully separated on the TLC fabrics and then identified via on-site SERS according to their different migration distance. The developed TLC-SERS fabric shows the advantage of quick, easy to handle, low-cost, sensitive, and could be exploited in on-site study of synthetic dyes in art objects, textile and packaging products or forensic applications.

Abstract
In the real world, analytes usually exist in complex systems, and this makes direct detection by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) difficult. Thin layer chromatography tandem with SERS (TLC-SERS) has many advantages in analysis such as separation effect, instant speed, simple process, and low cost. Therefore, the TLC-SERS has great potential for detecting analytes in mixtures without sample pretreatment. The review demonstrates TLC-SERS applications in diverse analytical relevant topics such as environmental pollutants, illegal additives, pesticide residues, toxic ingredients, biological molecules, and chemical substances. Important properties such as stationary phase, separation efficiency, and sensitivity are discussed. In addition, future perspectives for improving the efficiency of TLC-SERS in real sample detecting are outlined.

Abstract
In this work, a rapid and sensitive thin-layer chromatography combined with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy method was established for rapid detection of benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl in migration from food contact materials based on Au nanoparticle doped metal-organic framework. Benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl were firstly separated by thin-layer chromatography to solve the limitation of their overlapping Raman peaks. Then the target molecules were monitored by adding AuNPs/MIL-101(Cr) on the sample spots. Under the optimum conditions, the concentration of benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl can be quantitatively measured in the range of 2.0-20.0 and1.0-15.0 μg/L, respectively with good linear relationship, and the limits of detection were 0.21 and 0.23 μg/L, respectively. Furthermore, the developed method was applied to analyze benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl in migration of different food contact materials. The recoveries of benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl for migration of food contact materials, including paper cups, polypropylene food containers, and polyethylene glycol terephthalate bottles, were 80.6-116.0 and 80.7-118% with relative standard deviations of 1.1-9.1 and 3.1-9.9%, respectively. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering detection was performed conveniently in the on-plate mode without additional elution process. The method shows great potential in rapid monitoring of hazardous substances with overlapping characteristic Raman peaks in food contact materials.

Abstract
Quantitative analysis using thin-layer chromatography coupled in tandem with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (TLC-SERS) still remains a grand challenge due to many uncontrollable variations during the TLC developing process and the random nature of the SERS substrates. Traditional chemometric methods solve this problem by sampling multiple SERS spectra in the sensing spot and then conducting statistical analysis of the SERS signals to mitigate the variation of quantitative analysis, while still ignoring the spatial distribution of the target species and the correlation among the multiple sampling points. In this paper, we proposed for the first time a parallel feature extraction and fusion method based on quaternion signal processing techniques, which can enable quantitative analysis using recently established TLC-SERS techniques. By marking three deterministic sampling points, we recorded spatially correlated SERS spectra to constitute an integral representation model of triple-spectra by a pure quaternion matrix. Quaternion principal component analysis (QPCA) was utilized for features extraction and followed by feature crossing among the quaternion principal components to obtain final fusion spectral feature vectors. Support vector regression (SVR) was then used to establish the quantitative model of melamine-contaminated milk samples with seven concentrations (1ppm to 250ppm). Compared with traditional TLC-SERS analysis methods, QPCA method significantly improved the accuracy of quantification by reaching only 7% and 2% quantization errors at 20 and 105 ppm concentration. Validation testing based on reasonable amount of statistic measurement results showed consistently smaller measurement errors and variance, which proved the effectiveness of QPCA method for TLC-SERS based quantitative sensing applications.

Abstract
Scombroid fish poisoning caused by histamine intoxication is one of the most prevalent allergies associated with seafood consumption in the United States. Typical symptoms range from mild itching up to fatal cardiovascular collapse seen in anaphylaxis. In this paper, we demonstrate rapid, sensitive, and quantitative detection of histamine in both artificially spoiled tuna solution and real spoiled tuna samples using thin layer chromatography in tandem with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (TLC-SERS) sensing methods, enabled by machine learning analysis based on support vector regression (SVR) after feature extraction with principal component analysis (PCA). The TLC plates used herein, which were made from commercial food-grade diatomaceous earth, served simultaneously as the stationary phase to separate histamine from the blended tuna meat and as ultra-sensitive SERS substrates to enhance the detection limit. Using a simple drop cast method to dispense gold colloidal nanoparticles onto the diatomaceous earth plate, we were able to directly detect histamine concentration in artificially spoiled tuna solution down to 10 ppm. Based on the TLC-SERS spectral data of real tuna samples spoiled at room temperature for 0 to 48 hours, we used the PCA-SVR quantitative model to achieve superior predictive performance exceling traditional partial least squares regression (PLSR) method. This work proves that diatomaceous earth based TLC-SERS technique combined with machine-learning analysis is a cost-effective, reliable, and accurate approach for on-site detection and quantification of seafood allergen to enhance food safety.

Abstract
A novel "Prediction and Confirmation" (PC) strategy was proposed for characterizing phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor (PDE-5) derivatives in botanical dietary supplements (BDSs) for on-site detection. Discovery Studio (DS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used for the "Prediction" step in order to estimate PDE-5 derivative structures and theoretical Raman shifts without synthesizing the derivatives. After 11 potentially bioactive sildenafil derivatives were acquired through DS, 32 common calculated Raman shifts were obtained through DFT. The mean absolute wavenumber deviation (δ, peak range) of the major bands and the minimum number (τ) of Raman spectral peaks matching the calculated common shifts were optimized, so that a positive result of an unknown sample could be reasonably produced. In this study, δ was set at ±10 cm-1 and the corresponding τ was set at 4-5 after optimization. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection were the "Confirmation" step to validate the reliability and accuracy of DS and DFT in the "Prediction" step, respectively. The optimized δ and τ criteria were used as indexes for on-site SERS detection after thin-layer chromatographic (TLC) separation of six real-world samples, one of which was preliminarily identified as "suspected positive samples." This strategy allows for a quick determination of the BDSs adulterated with sildenafil or its derivatives, independent of any standard materials.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to establish a novel method for rapid detection of six glucocorticoids (prednisone, prednisone acetate, prednisolone, hydrocortisone, hydrocortisone acetate, and dexamethasone) added illegally in dietary supplements simultaneously by combining thin layer chromatography (TLC) with spot-concentrated Raman scattering (SCRS). The doping ingredients were separated by TLC, and viewed and located with UV light (254 nm), enriched by chromatography, then Raman spectra were directly detected by a Raman Imagine microscope with 780 nm laser source. This method had complementary advantages of TLC and Raman spectroscopy, which enhanced the specificity of the test results. The limit of detection (LOD) of the reference substances were 4 μg, 4 μg, 4 μg, 6 μg, 6 μg, and 4 μg, respectively. The method was used to study the six glucocorticoids added illegally in five dietary supplements. Fake drugs had been detected. The study showed that the TLC-SCRS method is simple, rapid, specific, sensitive, and reliable. The method could be used for effective separation and detection of six chemical components used in dietary supplement products, and would have good prospects for on-site qualitative screening of dietary supplement products for adulterants.

Abstract
This work presents the retention capabilities and surface area enhancement of highly ordered, high-aspect-ratio, open-platform, two-dimensional (2D) pillar arrays when coated with a thin layer of porous silicon oxide (PSO). Photolithographically prepared pillar arrays were coated with 50-250 nm of PSO via plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition and then functionalized with either octadecyltrichlorosilane or n-butyldimethylchlorosilane. Theoretical calculations indicate that a 50 nm layer of PSO increases the surface area of a pillar nearly 120-fold. Retention capabilities were tested by observing capillary-action-driven development under various conditions, as well as by running one-dimensional separations on varying thicknesses of PSO. Increasing the thickness of PSO on an array clearly resulted in greater retention of the analyte(s) in question in both experiments. In culmination, a two-dimensional separation of fluorescently derivatized amines was performed to further demonstrate the capabilities of these fabricated platforms.

Abstract
The work presented herein evaluates silicon nano-pillar arrays for use in planar chromatography. Electron beam lithography and metal thermal dewetting protocols were used to create nano-thin layer chromatography platforms. With these fabrication methods we are able to reduce the size of the characteristic features in a separation medium below that used in ultra-thin layer chromatography; i.e. pillar heights are 1-2 μm and pillar diameters are typically in the 200-400 nm range. In addition to the intrinsic nanoscale aspects of the systems, it is shown they can be further functionalized with nanoporous layers and traditional stationary phases for chromatography; hence exhibit broad-ranging lab-on-a-chip and point-of-care potential. Because of an inherent high permeability and very small effective mass transfer distance between pillars, chromatographic efficiency can be very high but is enhanced herein by stacking during development and focusing while drying, yielding plate heights in the nm range separated band volumes. Practical separations of fluorescent dyes, fluorescently derivatized amines, and anti-tumor drugs are illustrated.

Abstract
Acts of terror and warfare threats are challenging tasks for defense agencies around the world and of growing importance to security conscious policy makers and the general public. Explosives and chemical warfare agents are two of the major concerns in this context, as illustrated by the recent Boston Marathon bombing and nerve gas attacks on civilians in the Middle East. To prevent such tragic disasters, security personnel must be able to find, identify and deactivate the threats at multiple locations and levels. This involves major technical and practical challenges, such as detection of ultra-low quantities of hazardous compounds at remote locations for anti-terror purposes and monitoring of environmental sanitation of dumped or left behind toxic substances and explosives. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is one of todays most interesting and rapidly developing methods for label-free ultrasensitive vibrational "fingerprinting" of a variety of molecular compounds. Performance highlights include attomolar detection of TNT and DNT explosives, a sensitivity that few, if any, other technique can compete with. Moreover, instrumentation needed for SERS analysis are becoming progressively better, smaller and cheaper, and can today be acquired for a retail price close to 10,000 US$. This contribution aims to give a comprehensive overview of SERS as a technique for detection of explosives and chemical threats. We discuss the prospects of SERS becoming a major tool for convenient in-situ threat identification and we summarize existing SERS detection methods and substrates with particular focus on ultra-sensitive real-time detection. General concepts, detection capabilities and perspectives are discussed in order to guide potential users of the technique for homeland security and anti-warfare purposes.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2014; 407:1313-25. [PMID: 25542571 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-014-8380-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 56] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2014] [Revised: 11/06/2014] [Accepted: 11/28/2014] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
Ephedrine and its analogues are in the list of prohibited substance in adulteration to botanical dietary supplements (BDS) for their uncontrollable stimulating side effects. However, they were always adulterated illegally in BDS to promote losing weight. In order to avoid detection, various kinds of ephedrine analogues were added rather than ephedrine itself. This has brought about great difficulties in authentication of BDS. In this study, we put forward for the first time a method which combined thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) to directly identify trace adulterant. Ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, methylephedrine, and norephedrine were mixed and used in this method to develop an analytical model. As a result, the four analogues were separated efficiently in TLC analysis, and trace-components and low-background SERS detection was realized. The limit of detection (LOD) of the four analogues was 0.01 mg/mL. Eight common Raman peaks (△υ = 620, 1003, 1030, 1159, 1181, 1205, 1454, 1603 cm(-1)) were extracted experimentally and statistically to characterize the common feature of ephedrine analogues. A TLC-SERS method coupled with common-peak model was adopted to examine nine practical samples, two of which were found to be adulterated with ephedrine analogues. Identification results were then confirmed by UPLC-QTOF/MS analysis. The proposed method was simple, rapid, and accurate and can also be employed to trace adulterant identification even when there are no available reference derivatives on-site or unknown types of ephedrine analogues are adulterated.
