Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1311:342714. [PMID: 38816153 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342714] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Antibiotics residues can accelerate the growth of drug-resistant bacteria and harm the ecological environment. Under the effect of enrichment and biomagnification, the emergence of drug-resistant pathogenic bacteria may eventually lead to humans being ineffective to drugs in the face of bacterial or fungal disease infections in the future. It is urgent to develop an efficient separation medium and analytical method for simultaneous extraction and determination of antibiotics in the water environment. RESULTS This work doped 2,6-Di-O-methyl-β-cyclodextrin, randomly methyl-β-cyclodextrin, 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin with thymol:fatty acid respectively to construct non-covalent interaction-dominated pH-responsive ternary supramolecular deep eutectic solvents (SUPRADESs), which can undergo a hydrophilic/hydrophobic transition with aqueous phase to achieve an efficient microextraction. Semi-empirical method illustrated that SUPRADESs have a wide range of hydrogen bond receptor sites. We developed a SUPRADES-based analytical method combined with liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry for the extraction and determination of trace quinolones and sulfonamides in wastewater. The overall limits of detection of the method were 0.0021-0.0334 ng mL-1 and the limits of quantification were 0.0073-0.1114 ng mL-1. The linearity maintained good in the spiked level of 0.01-100 ng mL-1 (R2 > 0.99). The overall enrichment factors of the method were 157-201 with lower standard deviations (≤8.7). SIGNIFICANCE The method gave an extraction recovery of 70.1-115.3 % for 28 antibiotics in livestock farming wastewater samples from Zhejiang, China, at trace levels (minimum 0.5 ng mL-1). The results demonstrated that inducing the phase transition between SUPRADES and aqueous phase by adjusting pH for extraction is a novel and efficient pretreatment strategy. To our knowledge, this is the first application of cyclodextrin-based ternary SUPRADESs with pH-responsive reversible hydrophobicity-hydrophilicity transition behavior in wastewater analysis.

Atta S, Vo-Dinh T. Improved solution-based SERS detection of creatinine by inducing hydrogen-bonding interaction for effective analyte capture. Talanta 2024; 278:126373. [PMID: 38901075 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126373] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
Recently, solution-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection technique has been widely recognized due to its cost-effectiveness, simplicity, and ease of use. However, solution-based SERS is limited for practical applications mainly because of the weak adsorption affinity of the target biomolecules to the surface of plasmonic nanoparticles. Herein, we developed a highly sensitive solution-based SERS sensing platform based on mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)-capped silver-coated gold nanostars (SGNS@MPA), which allows efficient enrichment on the nanostars surface for improved detection of an analyte: creatinine, a potential biomarker of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The SGNS@MPA exhibited high enrichment ability towards creatinine molecules in alkaline medium (pH-9) through multiple hydrogen bonding interaction, which causes aggregation of the nanoparticles and enhances the SERS signal of creatinine. The detection limit for creatinine was achieved at 0.1 nM, with a limit of detection (LOD) value of 14.6 pM. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, we conducted the first quantitative detection of creatinine in noninvasive human fluids, such as saliva and sweat, under separation-free conditions. We achieved a detection limit of up to 1 nM for both saliva and sweat, with LOD values as low as 0.136 nM for saliva and 0.266 nM for sweat. Overall, our molecular enrichment strategy offers a new way to improve the solution-based SERS detection technique for real-world practical applications in point-of-care settings and low-resource settings.

Abstract
Nanoplastic water contamination has become a critical environmental issue, highlighting the need for rapid and sensitive detection of nanoplastics. In this study, we aimed to prepare a graphene oxide (GO)/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-silver nanostar (AgNS) multifunctional membrane using a simple vacuum filtration method for the enrichment and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection of polystyrene (PS) nanoplastics in water. AgNSs, selected for the size and shape of nanoplastics, have numerous exposed Raman hotspots on their surface, which exert a strong electromagnetic enhancement effect. AgNSs were filter-arrayed on GO/MWCNT composite membranes with excellent enrichment ability and chemical enhancement effects, resulting in the high sensitivity of GO/MWCNT-AgNS membranes. When the water samples flowed through the portable filtration device with GO/MWCNT-AgNS membranes, PS nanoplastics could be effectively enriched, and the retention rate for 50 nm PS nanoplastics was 97.1 %. Utilizing the strong SERS effect of the GO/MWCNT-AgNS membrane, we successfully detected PS nanoparticles with particle size in the range of 50-1000 nm and a minimum detection concentration of 5 × 10-5 mg/mL. In addition, we detected 50, 100, and 200 nm PS nanoplastics at concentrations as low as 5 × 10-5 mg/mL in real water samples using spiking experiments. These results indicate that the GO/MWCNT-AgNS membranes paired with a portable filtration device and Raman spectrometer can effectively enrich and rapidly detect PS nanoplastics in water, which has great potential for on-site sensitive water quality safety evaluation.

Abstract
Heavy metals have been widely applied in industry, agriculture, and other fields because of their outstanding physics and chemistry properties. They are non-degradable even at low concentrations, causing irreversible harm to the human and other organisms. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop high accuracy and sensitivity as well as stable techniques for their detection. Raman scattering spectroscopy and atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) were used parallelly to detect heavy metal ions such as Hg, Cd, and Pb of different concentrations in fish samples. The concentration of the heavy metals is varied from 5 ppb to 5 ppm. Despite the satisfactory recoveries of AAS, their drawbacks are imperative for an alternative technique. In Raman scattering spectroscopy, the intensities and areas of the characteristic peaks are increased with increasing the concentration of the heavy metals. For Hg concentration ≥ 1 ppm, a slight shift is observed in the peak position. The obtained values of peak intensity and peak area are modeled according to Elvoich, Pseudo-first order, Pseudo-second order, and asymptotic1 exponential model. The best modeling was obtained using the Elovich model followed by the asymptotic1 exponential model. The introduced Raman spectroscopy-based approach for on-site detection of trace heavy metal pollution in fish samples is rapid, low-cost, and simple to implement, increasing its visibility in food safety and industrial applications.

Silver nanoparticles modified sulfur-containing POSS polymer membrane substrate for adsorption and surface-enhanced Raman scattering analysis of chrysoidine in food samples. Talanta 2024; 271:125653.

Abstract
In analysis of complex samples, the stability and sensitivity of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates may be compromised by matrix interference. To address this issue, a membrane substrate was prepared for fast enrichment, separation, and detection of chrysoidine all-in-one. The silver nanoparticles modified sulfur-containing POSS polymer (AgNPs/POSS-P-S) SERS membrane substrate was fabricated using polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) as support materials. Through in-situ growth, AgNPs were uniformly modified on POSS-P-S to ensure the stability and SERS activity of the membrane substrate. The enhancement factor of the malachite green was up to 5.3 × 105. By loading the AgNPs/POSS-P-S on membrane, on the other hand, the SERS membrane substrate can also serve as an adsorption medium for separating chrysoidine from sample matrix. Furthermore, the specific sensing mechanism of AgNPs/POSS-P-S for chrysoidine was investigated and a fast, sensitive, and selective method for its quantification was established, with a linear range of 0.010-2.0 mg/L and the limits of detection at 3.7 μg/L. In addition, the SERS method was successfully applied for the analysis of chrysoidine in beverages and chili products with the recoveries in the range of 83.5%-113.4 % and the relative standard deviations in 3.2%-9.0 %. The proposed AgNPs/POSS-P-S membrane based SRES method has great potential for rapid chrysoidine analysis in food samples.

Abstract
In this work, nanostructures comprising silver nanoparticles supported on a wrinkled chitosan matrix (Ag@Ch) were successfully synthesized by a simple aging process at room temperature for four days through self-assembly. Chitosan, a natural polysaccharide was used as a support as well as a reducing agent for the formation of Ag nanostructures and the creation of hotspots for SERS activity. The fabricated Ag@Ch nanostructures were characterized by several spectroscopic techniques and were used as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate. The effect of wet, dry, and liquid samples on the SERS enhancement has been studied and was found to be effective for sensing Methylene blue, Crystal Violet, and p-Nitrophenol with detection limits of 3.8, 8.1, and 8.2 ppb respectively. The SERS enhancement of the Ag@Ch was attributed to the combination of both electromagnetic (EM) and chemical effects (CE). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to explain the observed surface enhancement. Good agreement was observed between the experimental and simulated spectra.

Abstract
Monolayer g-C3N4-modified Au/Ag nanorods (g-C3N4/Au/Ag NRs) array is fabricated as a dual-function platform with high surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) response and excellent photocatalytic degradation ability for bisphenol A (BPA) residues. FDTD simulation results of Au/Ag NRs proves that the electromagnetic field intensity is significantly enhanced at the gap of Ag NRs and Au NPs and the protrusion of Au NPs, which endows the arrays with excellent SERS activity. The arrays exhibit high sensitivity for rhodamine 6G (R6G) (LOD = 1.1 × 10-11 mol/L) and high SERS enhancement (EF = 9.2 × 107). In addition, the g-C3N4/Au/Ag NRs could degrade ˃90% of BPA adsorbed on the substrate surface within 140 min under visible light irradiation, and maintains its SERS activity after repeated use for 4 times. The dual-function platform with high SERS response and excellent recycling capability is proved to be reliable and is very promising for monitoring of BPA residues in food.

Abstract
High-performance SERS chips via self-assembled hollow Ag octahedra on PDMS were employed to achieve the sensitive identification and detection of antibiotic residues. The developed SERS chips were successfully applied in the detection of ciprofloxacin (CIP), amoxicillin (AMX) and cefazolin (CZL) in wastewater and tap water samples, as well as enrofloxacin (ENR) in milk, demonstrating the sensitive determination of antibiotics in the real environment. From this perspective, these SERS chips are expected to expand the on spot sensitive detection and identification field of antibiotic residues.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a potent analytical tool, particularly for molecular identification and structural analysis. Conventional metallic SERS substrates, however, suffer from low reproducibility and compatibility with biological molecules. Recently, metal-free SERS substrates based on chemical enhancement have emerged as a promising alternative with carbon-based materials offering excellent reproducibility and compatibility. Nevertheless, our understanding of carbon materials in SERS remains limited, which hinders their rational design. Here we systematically explore multidimensional carbon materials, including zero-dimensional fullerenes (C60), one-dimensional carbon nanotubes, two-dimensional graphene, and their B-, N-, and O-doped derivatives, for SERS applications. Using density functional theory, we elucidate the nonresonant polarizability-enhanced and resonant charge-transfer-based chemical enhancement mechanisms of these materials by evaluating their static/dynamic polarizability and electron excitation properties. This work provides a critical reference for the future design of carbon-based SERS substrates, opening a new avenue in this field.

Abstract
Indirect surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based methods are highly efficient in detecting and quantitatively analyzing trace antibiotics in complex samples. However, the poor reproducibility of indirect SERS assays caused by the diffusion and orientation changes of the probing molecules on SERS substrates still presents a significant challenge. To address this issue, this study reports the construction of a novel SERS sensing platform using tetrahedral framework nucleic acid (tFNA) as SERS probes in conjunction with a long-range SERS (LR-SERS) substrate. The tFNA was modified with sulfhydryl groups at three vertices and appended with a probing DNA at the remaining vertex, anchored on the substrate surface with a well-ordered orientation and stable coverage density, resulting in highly reproducible SERS signals. Owing to the weak SERS signal of tFNA inherited from its size being larger than the effective range of the enhancing electric field (E-field) of conventional SERS substrates, we utilized an LR-SERS substrate to enhance the signal of tFNA probes by capitalizing on its extended E-field. Correspondingly, the LR-SERS substrate demonstrated a 54-fold increase in the intensity of tFNA probes compared to the conventional substrate. Using this novel platform, we achieved a highly reliable detection of the antibiotic ampicillin with a wide linear range (10 fM to 1 nM), low detection limit (3.1 fM), small relative standard deviation (3.12%), and yielded quantitative recoveries of 97-102% for ampicillin in water, milk, and human serum samples. These findings, therefore, effectively demonstrate the achievement of highly reliable SERS detection of antibiotics using framework nucleic acids and an LR-SERS substrate.

Abstract
Nanozymes, which can be defined as nanomaterials with excellent catalytic function, are well known to the scientific community due to their distinct merits, such as low cost and high stability, which render them preferable to natural enzymes. As porous organic-inorganic coordination materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess a large number of active sites and thus can effectively mimic the properties of natural enzymes. Recently, MOF-based nanozymes have also exhibited good application potential for the analysis of heavy metal ions. In comparison to the traditional detection methods for heavy metal ions, nanozyme-based colorimetric sensing permits intuitive visual analysis by using relatively simple instruments, facilitating rapid and simple on-site screening. In this minireview, the preparation of MOF-based nanozymes and the different nanozyme activity types are briefly described, such as peroxidase-like and oxidase-like, and the relevant catalytic mechanisms are elaborated. Based on this, different response mechanisms of MOF-based colorimetric methods to heavy metal ions, such as turn-off, turn-on, and turn-off-on, are discussed. In addition, the colorimetric sensing applications of MOF-based nanozymes for the detection of heavy metal ions are summarized. Finally, the current research status of MOF-based nanozymes and the future development direction are discussed.

Abstract
The spectral fingerprint is a significant concept in nontarget screening of environmental samples to direct identification efforts to relevant and important features. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has long been recognized as an optical method that can provide fingerprint-like chemical information at the single-molecule level. Here, the advanced one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) approach was applied to accurately identify the SERS spectral signature of industrial wastewaters for source tracing. A total of 66,000 SERS spectra were acquired from wastewaters of 22 factories across 10 industrial categories at three excitation wavelengths after data augmentation. The dataset was used to train a 1D-CNN model consisting of three convolutional layers to achieve adequate feature extraction of SERS spectra. As a proof-of-concept, multimixed wastewater samples were used to simulate practical pollution scenarios and evaluate the application potential of the model. The SERS-1D-CNN platform can identify the amount and factory information of wastewaters in multimixed samples, which achieves a recognition accuracy rate of 97.33%. The results suggest that even in a complex and unknown water environment, the 1D-CNN model can accurately identify industrial wastewaters in precollected datasets, exhibiting excellent potential in pollution source tracing.

Abstract
As a burgeoning non-invasive indicator for reproducible cancer diagnosis, tumor-related biomarkers have a wide range of applications in early cancer screening, efficacy monitoring, and prognosis predicting. Accurate and efficient biomarker determination, therefore, is of great importance to prevent cancer progression at an early stage, thus reducing the disease burden on the entire population, and facilitating advanced therapies for cancer. During the last few years, various DNA structure-based fluorescent probes have established a versatile platform for biological measurements, due to their inherent biocompatibility, excellent capacity to recognize nucleic and non-nucleic acid targets, obvious accessibility to synthesis as well as chemical modification, and the ease of interfacing with signal amplification protocols. After decades of research, DNA fluorescent probe technology for detecting tumor-related mRNAs has gradually grown to maturity, especially the advent of fluorescent nanoprobes has taken the process to a new level. Here, a systematic introduction to recent trends and advances focusing on various nanomaterials-related DNA fluorescent probes and the physicochemical properties of various involved nanomaterials (such as AuNP, GO, MnO2, SiO2, AuNR, etc.) are also presented in detail. Further, the strengths and weaknesses of existing probes were described and their progress in the detection of tumor-related mRNAs was illustrated. Also, the salient challenges were discussed later, with a few potential solutions.

Abstract
Antibiotic abuse has caused serious health risks for human beings for long. To address the problem, novel and facile detection techniques are highly desired. Here, an effective multiplex immunochromatographic platform (MICP) with synthesis-free and cost-effective merits is established for simultaneous detection of antibiotics on a single immunochromatographic assay (ICA) strip. Adopting crystal violet (CV) as a signal tag for multiplex ICA allows for direct coupling with multiple antibodies in several minutes. By combining CV and ICA perfectly, this convenient strategy offers improvements in convenience, speed, flexibility, and portability, eventually ensuring the optimized effectiveness of this approach. As a result, the established platform is successfully used to detect streptomycin (STR) and chloramphenicol (CAP) with visual detection mode, and the obtained total recoveries of milk and honey real samples changed from 83.82 to 113.38% with total RSD values of 0.48 to 4.15%.

Abstract
To achieve facile and rapid detection of tetracyclines (TCs), herein, we fabricated an ingenious turn-on ratiometric fluorescence sensor (Ru@ZIF-8) based on embedding red-emitting Ru(bpy)32+ into zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). With the introduction of TCs, Ru@ZIF-8 system held the impervious red fluorescence, and generated green fluorescence which originated from the interaction between ZIF-8 and TCs, thereby achieving ratiometric fluorescence strategy through turn-on response signal and stable reference signal. Moreover, the ratiometric response accompanied discernible color change from red to green-yellow, which facilitated detection by naked eyes. The developed sensor exhibited prominent specificity and sensitivity, with detection limits of 2.4, 4.2, 1.6 and 7.2 nM for tetracycline, chlortetracycline, oxytetracycline and doxycycline, respectively. In addition, the satisfactory recoveries were obtained during detecting TCs in drink water, milk and beef, and the test paper-based sensor was successfully applied in real-time visual detection of TCs. All results indicated the feasibility and potential application of Ru@ZIF-8.

Abstract
A sepiolite/chitosan/silver nanoparticles (Sep/CTs/AgNPs) membrane substrate has been developed for the fast separation, enrichment, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) determination of sulfamethoxazole all-in-one. The Sep/CTs/AgNPs membrane substrate possessed the ability of rapid separation and enrichment to simplify the process for pretreatment and improve the efficiency of analysis. The grown AgNPs can provide abundant hot spots and plasmonic areas to amplify the Raman signals of target molecules effectively. The membrane substrate exhibited good stability with relative standard deviations of 5.8% and 7.1% to same batch and different batches membrane substrate, respectively, by detecting sulfamethoxazole. The SERS method based on Sep/CTs/AgNPs membrane substrate was used for the determination of sulfamethoxazole with a linear range of 0.05-2.0 mg/L, and the limit of detection was 0.020 mg/L. The established SERS method was finally applied to the quantification of sulfamethoxazole in animal-derived food samples. Sulfamethoxazole was actually found in crucian sample with 12.4 μg/kg, and the result was confirmed by a high-performance liquid chromatography method with relative error of 5.3%. The whole process of analysis can be finished within 25 min with recoveries of 89.3-102.2%. The SERS method based on Sep/CTs/AgNPs membrane substrate provided an integrated strategy for rapid and accurate SERS analysis in food safety issues.

Abstract
The abuse of antibiotics has caused serious threat to human health, so it is of great significance to develop a simple and sensitive method for the detection of trace residues of antibiotics in the environment and food. Herein, a novel label-free fluorescent biosensing platform based on the fluorescence change of aptamers-capped zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) @ 2,2',2″,2‴-((ethene-1,1,2,2-tetrayltetrakis (benzene-4,1-diyl)) tetrakis (oxy)) tetraacetic acid (TPE) through ATP-assisted competitive coordination reaction was designed for such an end. ZIF-8@TPE/Aptamer (Apt) emits strong fluorescence at 425 nm in HEPES buffer due to the aggregation induced luminescence properties of TPE molecules in confined state. Once kanamycin was added, the conformation of aptamer capped on the surface of ZIF-8@TPE changes because of the specific recognition of kanamycin with aptamer, leading to the collapse of ZIF-8 and release of TPE, accompanied with a dramatic decrease of fluorescence intensity. Under the optimal conditions, a good correlation was obtained between the fluorescence intensity of ZIF-8@TPE/Apt and the concentration of kanamycin ranging from 10 to 103 ng/mL with a detection limit of 7.3 ng/mL. The satisfactory analytical performance of the assay for kanamycin detection suggests good prospect for its application in food safety analysis.

Abstract
Antibiotics, nowadays, are not only used for the treatment of human diseases but also used in animal and poultry farming to increase production. Overuse of antibiotics leads to their circulation in the food chain due to unmanaged discharge. These circulating antibiotics and their residues are a major cause of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), so comprehensive and multifaceted measures aligning with the One Health approach are crucial to curb the emergence and dissemination of antibiotic resistance through the food chain. Different chromatographic techniques and capillary electrophoresis (CE) are being widely used for the separation and detection of antibiotics and their residues from food samples. However, the matrix present in food samples interferes with the proper detection of the antibiotics, which are present in trace concentrations. This review is focused on the scientific literature published in the last decade devoted to the detection of antibiotics in food products. Various extraction methods are employed for the enrichment of antibiotics from a wide variety of food samples; however, solid-phase extraction (SPE) techniques are often used for the extraction of antibiotics from food products and biological samples. In addition, this review has scrutinized how changing instrumental composition, organization, and working parameters in the chromatography and CE can greatly impact the identification and quantification of antibiotic residues. This review also summarized recent advancements in other detection methods such as immunological assays, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-based assays, and biosensors which have emerged as rapid, sensitive, and selective tools for accurate detection and quantification of traces of antibiotics.

Abstract
Antibiotics have made great contributions to the improvement of human health and life quality. However, the current abuse of antibiotics not only has a serious impact on the environment, but also endangers people's health. For this reason, the simultaneous identification and accurate determination of as many antibiotics in the environment, food and organisms as possible is critical. Herein, a ratiometric fluorescent sensor array based on Eu3+ and Tb3+ co-doped metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) was fabricated. Benefiting from the sensitization of the organic ligands to Eu3+ and Tb3+, the reaction of MOFs with various antibiotics resulted in different responses to the ratio of fluorescent intensity at 545 nm and 616 nm (F545/F616). After these responses were differentiated by principal component analysis (PCA), totally eight kinds of 25 antibiotics were well distinguished with the existence of interfering substances. The proposed sensor array exhibited high accuracy (98%) for the identification of 48 unknown samples in water and outstanding quantitative ability for the mixture of antibiotics. Finally, the practicability of the sensor array for the analysis of real samples was proved. In this strategy, we have not only provided an efficient way for the comprehensive identification and determination of antibiotics, but also promised new opportunities for the development of ratiometric signal based sensor array.

Abstract
Colorimetric analytical strategies exhibit great promise in developing on-site detection methods for antibiotics, while substantial recent research efforts remain problematic due to dissatisfactory sensitivity. Taking this into account, we develop a novel colorimetric sensor for in-field detection of antibiotics by using aptamer (Apt)-capped and horseradish peroxidise (HRP)-embedded zeolitic metal azolate framework-7 (MAF-7) (Apt/HRP@MAF-7) as target recognition and signal transduction, respectively. With the substrate 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)-impregnated chip attached on the lid, the assay can be conveniently operated in a tube and reliably quantified by a handheld colorimeter. Hydrophilic MAF-7 can not only prevent HRP aggregation but also enhance HRP activity, which would benefit its detection sensitivity. Besides, the catalytic activity of HRP@MAF-7 can be sealed through assembling with Apt and controllably released based on the bioresponsivity via forming target-Apt complexes. Consequently, a significant color signal can be observed owing to the oxidation of colorless TMB to its blue-green oxidized form oxTMB. As a proof-of-concept, portable detection of streptomycin was favorably achieved with excellent sensitivity, which is superior to most reported methods and commercial kits. The developed strategy affords a new design pattern for developing on-site antibiotics assays and immensely extends the application of enzyme embedded metal-organic framework composites.

Abstract
Resistance of pathogenic micro-organisms to conventional antibiotics is an essential issue for public health. The presence of such pharmaceuticals in aquatic ecosystems has been of major concern for which remediation and ultra-sensitive monitoring methods have been proposed. A less explored strategy involves the application of multifunctional nanosorbents for the uptake and subsequent detection of vestigial contaminants. In this study, colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) of iron oxide and gold were encapsulated in multi-layers of a charged polyelectrolyte (PEI: polyethyleneimine), envisaging the effective capture of tetracycline (TC) and its subsequent detection by Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS). Adsorption studies were performed by varying operational parameters, such as the solution pH and contact time, in order to evaluate the performance of the nanosorbents for the uptake of TC from water. While the magnetic nanosorbents with an external PEI layer (Fe3O4@PEI and Fe3O4@PEI-Au@PEI particles) have shown better uptake efficiency for TC, these materials showed less SERS sensitivity than the Fe3O4@PEI- Au nanosorbents, whose SERS sensitivity for TC in water has reached the limit of detection of 10 nM. Thus, this study highlights the potential of such magneto-plasmonic nanosorbents as multi-functional platforms for targeting specific contaminants in water, by taking into consideration both functionalities investigated: the removal by adsorption and the SERS detection across the nanosorbents’ surfaces.

Abstract
We report a structure to form a hybrid system in which a mesh is sandwiched between Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs). This self-assembly method uses smaller and denser AgNPs "hot spots" that are spin-coated on a AuNPs@GO mesh nanostructure formed by the reaction of GO@MoS2 and HAuCl4 to form AuNPs@GO mesh@AgNPs SERS substrates. Sub-40-nm mesh and 10-nm gaps ensure the landing sites and spacing of the AgNPs. Consequently, the design integrates the strong plasmonic effects of AgNPs and AuNPs with the biological compatibility of the GO mesh. Crystal violet (CV) as low as 10-15 M can be detected, which confirms the ultrahigh sensitivity of AuNPs@GO mesh@AgNPs. Furthermore, the reproducibility, stability, and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations confirm the value of this SERS substrate. This material can be used for label-free DNA detection, and the AuNPs@GO mesh@AgNPs substrate facilitated single-molecule DNA detection limits.

Abstract
The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique is a remarkable tool, with applications in almost every area of science and technology. Sensing is the foremost and majorly explored application of SPR technique. The last few decades have seen a surge in SPR sensor research related to sensitivity enhancement and innovative target materials for specificity. Nanotechnological advances have augmented the SPR sensor research tremendously by employing nanomaterials in the design of SPR-based sensors, owing to their manifold properties. Carbon-based nanomaterials, like graphene and its derivatives (graphene oxide (GO)), (reduced graphene oxide (rGO)), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and their nanocomposites, have revolutionized the field of sensing due to their extraordinary properties, such as large surface area, easy synthesis, tunable optical properties, and strong compatible adsorption of biomolecules. In SPR based sensors carbon-based nanomaterials have been used to act as a plasmonic layer, as the sensitivity enhancement material, and to provide the large surface area and compatibility for immobilizing various biomolecules, such as enzymes, DNA, antibodies, and antigens, in the design of the sensing layer. In this review, we report the role of carbon-based nanomaterials in SPR-based sensors, their current developments, and challenges.

Three-dimensional hierarchical frameworks based on molybdenum disulfide-graphene oxide-supported magnetic nanoparticles for enrichment fluoroquinolone antibiotics in water.

Abstract
Recently, water pollution caused by antibiotics is rapidly increasing. Thus, developing efficient, fast and sensitive detection methods for environmental antibiotics monitoring are still remaining elusive. Herein, a method for antibiotics analysis including lecofloxacin, pazcofloxacin and gatifloxacin in water by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using molybdenum disulfide-graphene oxide-supported magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4/GO/MoS2) as the adsorbent of magnetic solid-phase extraction was developed. The as-prepared magnetic Fe3O4/GO/MoS2 nanocomposite exhibited good enrichment capability toward fluoroquinolone antibiotics and the analytes were absorbed within a short time ca. 2 min. The main drive forces of Fe3O4/GO/MoS2 nanocomposite and antibiotics were most likely attributed to hydrogen bonding and electrostatic attraction. A sensitive and effective MSPE-HPLC method was developed with low detection limits (LODs) ranging from 0.25 to 0.50 ng mL-1. The recoveries obtained from the analysis of water sample were between 85.6% and 106.1% with relative standard deviations (RSDs, n = 5) lower than 9.5%. The developed method has a good potential for the analysis of organic contaminants in water with low cost and high sensitivity. Therefore, this finding is a promising strategy for designing high efficiency and fast antibiotics detection system.

Abstract
Magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) decorated with gold nanostars (AuNSs) have been prepared by using a seed growth method without the addition of surfactants or colloidal stabilizers. The hybrid nanomaterials were investigated as adsorbents for the uptake of tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions and subsequent detection using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Several parameters were investigated in order to optimize the performance of these hybrid platforms on the uptake and SERS detection of TC, including variable pH values and the effect of contact time on the removal of TC. The spatial distribution of TC and AuNS on the hybrid composites was accomplished by coupling SERS analysis with Raman imaging studies, allowing also for the determination of the detection limit for TC when dissolved in ultrapure water (10 nM) and in more complex aqueous matrices (1 μM). Attempts were also made to investigate the adsorption modes of the TC molecules at the surface of the metal NPs by taking into account the enhancement of the Raman bands in these different matrices.

Abstract
One-dimensional microscale surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active interfaces have been intriguing as a newly emerging class of SERS interfaces compared to conventional macroscale SERS substrates. In this work, a stable surface-nanostructured single silver nanowire was fabricated. The nanostructures on the nanowire are formed by nanoscale silver crystal dots with diameters of 20-50 nm. The SERS signals of the crystal violet probe molecules adsorbed on the nanostructures are dramatically enhanced by both electromagnetic and chemical effects. The hot spots generated at the junctions of adjacent nanoscale dots yield highly efficient surface plasmon resonance. Simultaneously, the charge transfer on the atomic-scale silver cluster located at the nanostructured interface causes an enhancement similar to Raman resonance. The intensity distributions of the SERS peaks on the surface-nanostructured single nanowire are characterized by SERS mapping. It is found that, although the intensities of the SERS peaks are different, their SERS mapping images show uniform SERS enhancement distributions, whereas the noticeable SERS intensity distributions on the single smooth silver nanowire are mainly located on the two ends of the nanowire. A large number of nanoscale crystal dots along with the atomic-scale silver clusters are uniformly and densely distributed on the surface of the single roughened nanowire; these structural attributes induce a uniform and large surface plasmon resonance and charge transfer enhancements on the entire surface of the nanowire. This work indicates that the surface-nanostructured single silver nanowire, synthesized using a quite simple preparation method, performs as an excellent one-dimensional microscale SERS substrate with uniform and high enhancement characteristics, which shows high potential for applications as a new class of SERS-active substrates. Furthermore, the higher enhancement factor of the microscale SERS interfaces can be achieved by introducing other roughened nanowires to assemble a dimer and a trimer as micro-SERS substrates, which is consistent with the dark-field measurements.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is one of the important techniques for sensing applications in biological analysis, disease diagnosis, environmental science, and food safety. Graphene provides an excellent nanoplatform for SERS sensing due to its two-dimensional flat structure, uniform electronic and photonic properties, excellent mechanical stability, atomic uniformity, and high biocompatibility. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the fabrication of various graphene-based nanoplatforms for SERS sensing. We present the strategies, such as self-assembly, in situ synthesis, one-pot synthesis, liquid phase reduction, and biomimetic synthesis, for the fabrication of graphene-based hybrid metallic and alloy nanoplatforms, and then demonstrate the potential applications of graphene-based nanoplatforms for the SERS sensing of ions, organic dyes, pesticides, bacteria, DNA, proteins, cells, and other chemicals in great detail. In addition, we also discuss the future development of this interesting research field and provide several perspectives. This work will be helpful for readers to understand the fabrication and sensing mechanisms of graphene-based SERS sensing nanoplatforms; meanwhile, it will promote the development of new materials and novel methods for high performance sensing and biosensing applications.

Abstract
It is urgent to develop a rapid, reliable, and in-site determination method to detect or monitor trace amounts of toxic substances in the field. Here, we report an alternative surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) method coupled with a portable Raman device on a plasmonic three-dimension (3D) hot spot sensing surface. Plasmonic Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) were uniformly deposited on 3D TiO2 nanopore arrays as a sensitive SERS substrate, and further coated with graphene oxide (GO). We demonstrate the plasmon-induced SERS enhancement (5.8-fold) and the improvement of catalytic activity by incorporation of plasmonic AgNPs into the 3D TiO2 nanopore arrays. The modification of GO on the TiO2-Ag nanopore array further increases by a 6.2-fold Raman enhancement compared to TiO2-Ag while maintaining good uniformity (RSD < 10%). The optimized TiO2-Ag-GO substrate shows powerful quantitative detection potential for drug residues in fish scales via a simple scrubbing method, and the limit of detection (LOD) for crystal violet (CV) was 10-8 M. The SERS substrate also showed detection practicability of pesticide residues in banana peel with an LOD of 10-7 M. In addition, our TiO2-Ag-GO substrate exhibits excellent SERS self-monitoring performance for catalytic reduction of multiple organics in NaBH4 solution, and the substrate shows good recyclability of 6 cycles. Such a 3D TiO2-Ag-GO substrate is a promising SERS substrate with good sensitivity, uniformity, and reusability, and may be utilized for further miniaturization for point of analytical applications.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) exhibits distinctive Raman scattering features for its high frequency D (disordered) and tangential modes (G-band), which are characteristically sharp at 1580 cm-1 and 1350 cm-1, respectively, but are too weak for sensitive quantitation purposes. By depositing silver nanoparticles on the surface of GO in this contribution, both D and G bands of GO become enhanced. The enzyme label of this method controls the dissolution of silver nanoparticles on the surface of GO through hydrogen peroxide which is produced by the oxidation of the enzyme substrate. With the dissolution of the silver nanoparticles a greatly decreased SERS signal of GO was obtained. This strategy involves dual signal amplification of the enzyme and nanocomposites to improve the detection sensitivity. As a proof of concept, prostate specific antigen (PSA), a biomarker for prostate cancer, is successfully detected as a target by forming a sandwich structure in immunoassay. The SERS immunoassay possesses excellent analytical performance in the range 0.5 pg mL-1 to 500 pg mL-1 with a limit of detection of 0.23 pg mL-1, making the detection of PSA serum samples from prostate cancer patients satisfactory, demonstrating that the sensitive enzyme-assisted dissolved AgNPs SERS immunoassay of PSA has potential applications in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
The development of paper-based SERS substrates that can allow multi-component detection in real-word scenarios is of great value for applications in molecule detection under complex conditions. Here, a multifunctional SERS-based paper sensing substrate has been developed through the uniform patterning of high-density arrays of GO-isolated Ag nanoparticles on the hydrophilic porous cellulose paper strip (GO@AgNP@paper). Wet-chemical synthesis was used to provide the cover of SERS hot spots on any part of the paper, not just limited surface deposition. In virtue of the inherent ability of paper to deliver analytes by the capillary force, the detection ability of the GO@AgNP@paper substrate was greatly promoted, allowing as low as 10-19M R6G detection from microliter-volume (50 μL) samples. For the components with different polarity, the paper substrate can be used as an all-in-one machine to achieve the integration of separation and high-sensitive detection for ultralow mixture components, which improves the practical application value of SERS-based paper devices.
