Abstract
Rapid identification of microorganisms with a high sensitivity and selectivity is of great interest in many fields, primarily in clinical diagnosis, environmental monitoring, and the food industry. For over the past decades, a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based detection platform has been extensively used for bacterial detection, and the effort has been extended to clinical, environmental, and food samples. In contrast to other approaches, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and polymerase chain reaction, SERS exhibits outstanding advantages of rapid detection, being culture-free, low cost, high sensitivity, and lack of water interference. This review aims to cover the development of SERS-based methods for bacterial detection with an emphasis on the source of the signal, techniques used to improve the limit of detection and specificity, and the application of SERS in high-throughput settings and complex samples. The challenges and advancements with the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) are also discussed.

Design of magnetic photonic crystal microdroplet for sensitive detection of cationic organic pollutants by the coupled resonance effect. Talanta 2024; 275:126169. [PMID: 38705017 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126169] [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: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
Photonic crystals (PCs), periodically arranged nanoparticles, have emerged with extraordinary optical properties for light manipulation owing to their photonic band gaps (PBGs). Here, a novel strategy and method was developed for efficient enrichment and sensitive detection of cationic organic pollutants in water. Size-controlled Fe3O4@poly (4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) (Fe3O4@PSSMA) was prepared, and high surface charge were formed with the coating of PSSMA layer on the surface of Fe3O4, which could be used for adsorption and removal of cationic organic pollutants. The Fe3O4@PSSMA after adsorbing cationic organic pollutant were assembled to magnetic photonic crystal microdroplet (MPCM) structure in an external magnetic field, which was used as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate. By coupling the magnetically tuned PBGs with Raman laser wavelength, the light utilization efficiency can be improved and the coupled resonance effect was greatly enhanced. The enhancement factor (EF) of MB was more than 800 attributing to the dual function of enrichment and coupled resonance effect of MPCM. The developed analytical strategy is the first time to use MPCM as a SERS substrate to realize the sensitive detection of 10 nmol L-1 MB in real water, which greatly improves the application of MPCM in the field of contaminant analysis and detection in water.

Abstract
Concerns about food safety have been arisen due to the improper use of chemicals in aquaculture. Malachite green (MG) has attracted attention because of its illegal usage and its potential negative impacts on the environment and public health. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platforms coupled with different SERS substrates have been employed for rapid analysis of MG residues in food. However, the most commonly used SERS substrates were non-reusable and showed limited detection sensitivity. In this study, a novel SERS substrate with a good recyclability and a high sensitivity was prepared by electrostatically assembling together a metal-organic framework material called materials of institute lavoisie-100(Fe) (MIL-100(Fe)) and Au NPs. The lowest detectable concentration of MG was 10-13 M based on the optimal substrate. The SERS sensor was applied for the detection of the trace MG in fish pond water, which was accomplished with the correlation coefficients R2 = 0.991-0.996 in a concentration range of 10-6-10-13 M. Moreover, MIL-100(Fe)/Au was recycled at least five times, realizing a "detection to degradation", showing great potential for food contamination monitoring due to its distinguished performance.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signals are fundamental for spectroscopy applications. However, existing substrates cannot perform a dynamically enhanced modulation of SERS signals. Herein, we developed a magnetically photonic chain-loading system (MPCLS) substrate by loading magnetically photonic nanochains of Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with Au nanoparticles (NPs). We achieved a dynamically enhanced modulation by applying an external stepwise magnetic field to the randomly dispersed magnetic photonic nanochains that gradually align in the analyte solution. The closely aligned nanochains create a higher number of hot spots by new neighboring Au NPs. Each chain represents a single SERS enhancement unit with both a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect and photonic property. The magnetic responsivity of MPCLS enables a rapid signal enhancement and tuning of the SERS enhancement factor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates based on metallic nanoparticles locked in some flexible materials have great potential for rapid detection of pesticide residues in foods, but these substrates are generally not reusable. RESULTS A bendable and reusable sponge based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and Au nanospheres was synthesized and employed as SERS substrate to analyze thiram on the surfaces of apples and grapes (20-1000 ng cm-2 ) and in their juices (0.5-5.0 mg L-1 ) with minimum sample pretreatments. The lowest detectible concentrations for thiram in fruit juices and on fruit skins were 0.5 mg L-1 and 20 ng cm-2 , respectively. The Au-PDMS substrate had acceptable intra-reproducibility for SERS analysis of thiram in fruit juices and on fruit skins, resulting in 3.6-16.9% relative standard deviation (RSD) for the SERS signal of the primary peak of thiram. Moreover, the Au-PDMS substrate exhibited distinguished reusability and stability, which could provide a reproducible SERS signal of thiram in apple juice even after the substrate being reused ten times (RSDs for the three major characteristic peaks of thiram were 2.7-10.5% during the ten reused cycles). CONCLUSION This flexible and reusable Au-PDMS SERS substrate for thiram detection could be readily extended to the analysis of other trace chemicals in a broad range of foods, providing a new possibility for SERS application. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) MXenes are attractive candidates as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates because of their metallic conductivity and abundant surface terminations. Herein, we report the facile synthesis of bimetallic solid-solution TiVC (MXene) and its application in SERS. The few-layered MXene nanosheets with high crystallinity were successfully prepared using a one-step chemical etching method without ultrasonic and organic solvent intercalation steps. SERS activity of the as-prepared MXene was investigated by fabricating free-standing TiVC film as the substrate. A SERS enhancement factor of 1012 and femtomolar-level detection limit were confirmed using rhodamine 6G as a model dye with 532 nm excitation. The fluorescent signal of the rhodamine 6G dye was effectively quenched, making the SERS spectrum clearly distinguishable. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the TiVC-analyte system with ultrahigh sensitivity is dominated by the chemical mechanism (CM) based on the experimental and simulation results. The abundant density of states near the Fermi level of the TiVC and the strong interaction between the TiVC and analyte promote the intermolecular charge transfer resonance in the TiVC-analyte complex, resulting in significant Raman enhancement. Additionally, several other probe molecules were used for SERS detection to further verify CM-based selectivity enhancement on the TiVC substrates. This work provides guidance for the facile synthesis of 2D MXene and its application in ultrasensitive SERS detection.

Abstract
Mercury pollution is a rampant problem in many economically significant Philippine freshwater ecosystems. Communities dependent on these freshwater sources are therefore at risk for exposure to harmful levels of mercury. Various formulations of a novel gold-graphene oxide-iron oxide (Au-GO-Fe3O4) hybrid nanoparticle system were created and subjected to UV-Vis spectroscopy to determine optimal formulations that would best serve as potential substrates for Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) detection of mercury. Optimal formulations of Au-GO-Fe3O4 were also introduced into mercury-polluted environments to evaluate its ability to remove mercury from both water and biological tissues. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that Fe3O4-rich formulations of Au-GO-Fe3O4 had the greatest potential to boost Raman signal intensities of mercury due to red shifting of absorbance peaks and overall increased absorbance across visible wavelengths resulting in the inclusion of greater areas underneath absorbance peaks. Mercury remediation experiments likewise demonstrated Au-GO-Fe3O4 to significantly reduce average concentrations of mercury from 1.67 to 0.82 ppm in polluted water samples - corresponding to a mercury removal efficiency of 50.9% and a mercury adsorption capacity of 5.89 mg/g. The results highlight the viability of Au-GO-Fe3O4 to function as both substrate for SERS detection of mercury and as effective adsorbent for mercury remediation.

Abstract
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have attracted significant attention because of their bioaccumulation, persistence, and toxicity. As anthropogenic products, POPs mainly contain polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine pesticides (OPs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and they pose a great threat to human health and the environment. To deal with these toxic contaminants, many different kinds of strategies for sensitively detecting POPs have been developed, such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), and fluorescence. This paper mainly summarized the achievements of spectroscopy technologies, which generally consist of SERS, surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and fluorescence, in the detection of low-concentration POPs in different matrices. In addition, a retrospective summary is made on several critical considerations, such as sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility of these spectroscopy technologies in practical applications. Finally, some current challenges and future outlooks for these spectroscopy technologies are provided in regards to environmental analysis.

Abstract
Environmental pollution, a major problem worldwide, poses considerable threat to human health and ecological environment. Efficient and reliable detection technologies, which focus on the appearance of emerging environmental and trace pollutants, are urgently needed. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has become an attractive analytical tool for sensing trace targets in environmental field because of its inherent molecular fingerprint specificity and high sensitivity. In this review, we focused on the recent developments in the integration of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with SERS for facilitating sensitive detection of environmental pollutants. An overview and classification of different types of MNPs for SERS detection were initially provided, enabling us to categorize the huge amount of literature that was available in the interdisciplinary research field of MNPs based SERS technology. Then, the basic working principles and applications of MNPs in SERS detection were presented. Subsequently, the detection technologies integrating MNPs with SERS that eventually were used for the detection of various environmental pollutions were reviewed. Finally, the advantages of MNP-basedSERS detection technology for environmental pollutants were concluded, and the current challenges and future outlook of this technology in practical applications were highlighted. The application of the MNPs-basedSERS techniques for environmental analysis will be significantly advanced with the great progresses of the nanotechnologies, optics, and materials.

Abstract
Metal-dielectric micro/nano-composites have surface plasmon resonances in visible and near-infrared domains. Excitation of coupled metal-dielectric resonances is also important. These different resonances can allow enhancement of the electromagnetic field at a subwavelength scale. Hybrid plasmonic structures act as optical antennae by concentrating large electromagnetic energy in micro- and nano-scales. Plasmonic structures are proposed for various applications such as optical filters, investigation of quantum electrodynamics effects, solar energy concentration, magnetic recording, nanolasing, medical imaging and biodetection, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and optical super-resolution microscopy. We present the review of recent achievements in experimental and theoretical studies of metal-dielectric micro and nano antennae that are important for fundamental and applied research. The main impact is application of metal-dielectric optical antennae for the efficient SERS sensing.

Abstract
Assembly of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) in suspensions is a promising approach for the control of optical and sensing properties that depend on the assembled states of plasmonic NPs. This review focuses on the controlling methods to assemble the NP via external stimuli such as pH, temperature, light, magnetic field, and electric field. External stimuli are introduced as powerful tools to assemble the NPs because of various operational factors, such as the intensity, application time, and frequency, which can be employed. In addition to a summary of recent studies on the controlling methods, a future study on the reversible control over assembled states of the plasmonic NPs via external stimuli is proposed.

Abstract
An external electric AC field with a field strength ranging from 10 V mm-1 to 30 V mm-1 and a frequency ranging from 0.1 kHz to 1 MHz was applied to suspensions of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) to control their plasmonic properties. Apparent differences in the UV-vis spectra of the Au NPs were observed between the spectra with and without the field application. The characteristic red color of the Au NP suspension darkened; this suggested that the application of the AC field caused the aggregation of the Au NPs. In addition, the sizes of the Au NP clusters in suspension formed by the AC field application depended on the frequency of the applied field. The surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effects of Au NP clusters were examined by comparing the difference in Raman intensities obtained at 30 V mm-1 and in a frequency range of 0.1 kHz to 1 MHz. The application of a low-frequency field at 0.1 kHz caused a rapid aggregation of the Au NPs, resulting in low Raman intensities of the probe molecules. Conversely, high-frequency applications between 1 kHz and 1 MHz successfully enhanced the Raman intensities of the molecules in suspension. The strong correlation of the optical/sensing properties with the Au NP clustering states reveals that the application of an AC electric field is a powerful tool for control over the plasmonic properties.

Abstract
Construction of multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) with near-infrared (NIR) plasmonic responses is considered a versatile and multifaceted platform for several biomedical applications. Herein, a double layer of Au/Ag alloy on the surface of truncated octahedral iron oxide NPs (IONPs) was prepared and the distance between the layers was controlled to exhibit broad and strong NIR absorption. The rattle-shaped IONP@shell-in-shell nanostructure showed light-response to the NIR biological window from 650 to 1300 nm for photothermal therapy (PTT) and magnetic guidance for hyperthermia and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnosis. Exposing the aqueous solution of IONP@shell-in-shell to a 1064 nm diode laser, its heat conversion efficiency was ∼28.3%. The in vitro cell viability at a gold concentration of 100 ppm was ∼85%, and decreased to ∼16% when the cells were treated with the NIR irradiation and magnetic attraction. T2-weighted MRI images showed a clear accumulation of IONP@shell-in-shell at the tumor site with magnetic attraction. In vivo luminescence tumor images explained that the IONP@shell-in-shell could reduce the U87MG-luc2 cancer cell proliferation in mice with the NIR irradiation and magnetic attraction. These results indicate the IONP@shell-in-shell as a promising nanomedicine for PTT, magnetic targeting, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Abstract
Here we show the capability of copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles formed on copper (Cu) electrodes by the electrolysis as a real time active substrate for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). We have experimentally found that using just the ultra pure water as the electrolyte and the Cu electrodes, ions are extracted from the copper anode form copper oxide nanoparticles on the anode surface in matter of minutes. Average particle size on the anode reaches to 100 nm in ninety seconds and grows to about 300 nm in five minutes. This anode is used in Raman experiments in real time as the nanoparticles were forming and the maximum enhancement factor (EF) of Raman signals were over five orders of magnitude. Other metal electrodes made of brass, zinc (Zn), silver (Ag) and aluminum (Al) were also tried for the anode material for a possible real-time substrate for SERS applications. Experimentally obtained enhancement factors were above five orders of magnitude for brass electrodes like the copper but for the other metals no enhancement is observed. Electron microscope images show the cubic nanoparticle formation on copper and brass electrodes but none in the other metals studied.

Abstract
L-Cysteine functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (L-Cyst-Fe3O4 NPs) were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation using Fe2+ and Fe3+ as iron precursors, sodium hydroxide as a base and L-Cysteine as functionalized agent. The structural and morphological studies were carried out using X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and UV-Vis spectrophotometric techniques. The zeta potential of bare Fe3O4 and functionalized L-Cyst-Fe3O4 NPs were +28 mV and -30.2 mV (pH 7.0), respectively. The positive surface charge changes to negative imply the presence of L-Cyst monolayer at particle interface. Band gap energy of 2.12 eV [bare Fe3O4NPs] and 1.4 eV [L-Cyst-Fe3O4 NPs] were obtained. Lead and chromium removal were investigated at different initial pHs, contact time, temperatures and adsorbate-adsorbent concentrations. Maximum Cr6+ and Pb2+ removal occurred at pH 2.0 and 6.0, respectively. Sorption dynamics data were best described by pseudo-second order rate equation. Pb2+ and Cr6+ sorption equilibrium data were best fitted to Langmuir equation. Langmuir adsorption capacities of 18.8 mg/g (Pb2+) and 34.5 mg/g (Cr6+) at 45 °C were obtained. Regeneration of exhausted L-Cyst-Fe3O4 NPs and recovery of Pb2+/Cr6+ were demonstrated using 0.01 M HNO3 and NaOH. L-Cyst-Fe3O4 NPs stability and reusability were also demonstrated.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) hold great promise for future biomedical applications because of their magnetic properties as well as other intrinsic properties such as low toxicity, colloidal stability, and surface engineering capability. Numerous related studies on iron oxide NPs have been conducted. Recent progress in nanochemistry has enabled fine control over the size, crystallinity, uniformity, and surface properties of iron oxide NPs. This review examines various synthetic approaches and surface engineering strategies for preparing naked and functional iron oxide NPs with different physicochemical properties. Growing interest in designed and surface-engineered iron oxide NPs with multifunctionalities was explored in in vitro/in vivo biomedical applications, focusing on their combined roles in bioseparation, as a biosensor, targeted-drug delivery, MR contrast agents, and magnetic fluid hyperthermia. This review outlines the limitations of extant surface engineering strategies and several developing strategies that may overcome these limitations. This study also details the promising future directions of this active research field.

Abstract
Quasi three-dimensional (3D) plasmonic nanostructures consisting of Au nanosquares on top of SU-8 nanopillars and Au nanoholes on the bottom were developed and fabricated using nanoimprint lithography with simultaneous thermal and UV exposure. These 3D plasmonic nanostructures were used to detect cell concentration of lung cancer A549 cells, retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells, and breast cancer MCF-7 cells. Nanoimprint technology has the advantage of producing high uniformity plasmonic nanostructures for such biosensors. Multiple resonance modes were observed in these quasi 3D plasmonic nanostructures. The hybrid coupling of localized surface plasmon resonances and Fabry-Perot cavity modes in the quasi 3D nanostructures resulted in high sensitivity of 496 nm/refractive index unit. The plasmonic resonance peak wavelength and sensitivity could be tuned by varying the Au thickness. Resonance peak shifts for different cells at the same concentration were distinct due to their different cell area and confluency. The cell concentration detection limit covered a large range of 5 × 10(2) to 1 × 10(7) cells ml(-1) with these new plasmonic nanostructures. They also provide a large resonance peak shift of 51 nm for as little as 0.08 cells mm(-2) of RPE cells for high sensitivity cell detection.

Abstract
Great progress has been made in fluorescence-based detection utilizing solid state enhanced substrates in recent years. However, it is still difficult to achieve reliable substrates with tunable enhancement factors. The present work shows liquid fluorescence enhanced substrates consisting of suspensions of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs), which can assemble 3D photonic crystal under the external magnetic field. The photonic bandgap induced by the equilibrium of attractive magnetic force and repulsive electrostatic force between adjacent Fe3O4 NPs is utilized to enhance fluorescence intensity of dye molecules (including R6G, RB, Cy5, DMTPS-DCV) in a reversible and controllable manner. The results show that a maximum of 12.3-fold fluorescence enhancement is realized in the 3D Fe3O4 NP substrates without the utilization of metal particles for PCs/DMTPS-DCV (1.0 × 10(-7) M, water fraction (f w) = 90%).
