Abstract
Flexible silver substrates were made by in situ reduction of silver nanoparticles in bacterial cellulose membranes using the unique advantage of dopamine. Subsequently, we modified the substrate with 4-mercaptophenol (4-MP), a molecule capable of specifically recognizing ClO-, and its corresponding SERS signal changes with the concentration of hypochlorite, thus allowing the quantitative detection of ClO- content. The method showed a negative linear correlation (R2 = 0.9567) with the SERS intensity at 1077 cm-1 over the concentration range 0.5-100 µM, and the detection limit was 0.15 µM. The RSD of the SERS intensity at 1077 cm-1 under five batches was 4.2%, which proved the good reproducibility of P-BCM-Ag NP-MP. Finally, the P-BCM-Ag NPs were used for the detection of hypochlorite in cell contents, artificial urine, and clinical serum samples, utilizing spike experiments in all three environments. The recoveries were in the range 90-110% indicating the accuracy of the method for the detection of hypochlorite and validating the promising application of this assay for practical detection in intricate biological samples.

Abstract
p-Nitrophenol (PNP) is widely used in pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and dyestuffs. It is vital to detect trace PNP in the environment, because it poses significant environmental hazards due to its high toxicity. In this paper, a new method was reported for preparing a SERS substrate with excellent SERS activity by combining self-assembly techniques and flexible materials. First, the three-dimensional (3D) polystyrene (PS) photonic crystal (PC) structural master was fabricated by stacking two layers of self-assembled PS nanospheres with different diameters. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with a complementary structure to the master was obtained by casting, curing and peeling off. Finally, the PDMS-Ag substrate was fabricated by sputtering a thin Ag layer on the PDMS structure. The enhancement factor (EF) of the PDMS-Ag substrate was calculated to be 2.90 × 109 by using 4-amino thiophenol (ATP) as the probe molecule, and the limit of detection (LOD) for ATP can reach 10-11 M. And the RSD of the SERS intensity for the peak at 1078 cm-1 on the PDMS-Ag substrates from batch to batch was within 2%, indicating the high reproducibility of the as-prepared substrate. The quantitative analysis of PNP was achieved with a LOD of 10-8 M. Therefore, the PDMS-Ag substrate exhibits high sensitivity and reproducibility, and it can detect PNP in trace amounts, with great potential for detecting other contaminants.

Food Chem 2023; 412:135332. [PMID: 36774690 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.135332] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Cellulose material holds considerable promise for effective surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate construction due to its extensive availability, chemically modifying capacity, ease of manufacture, high flexibility and low optical activity. A large-area, high-sensitivity, stable and uniform Au@Ag nanorods (NRs)-CMC substrate was successfully developed via electrostatic repulsion by using negatively-charged core-shell Au@Ag NRs as SERS active plasmonic nanomaterial, combined with negatively-charged carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) hydrogel for nanoparticles stabilization, homodisperse and protection. The obtained Au@Ag NRs-CMC substrate showed excellent sensitivity for the detection of thiram residues in fruits containing low and abundant pigment interferents, such as apples and blueberries, with detection limits of 58 and 78 ppb, respectively. Additionally, it retained more than 80% SERS performance after storage for 9 months under ambient conditions, demonstrating its great potential in facilitating the commercialization of cellulose-based SERS technology for cost-effective detection of food contaminants with advantages of facile preparation procedure, uniformity, reproducibility and long-term stability.

Abstract
The modification of EGFR aptamer (Apt 1) and HER2 aptamer (Apt 2) with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is reported to obtain probe I (Apt 1-AuNPs) and probe II (Apt 2-AuNPs). Taking Eca109, KYSE510, and KYSE150 cells as models, the sandwich scattering system of probe I-cell-probe II was formed by the recognition of tumor markers by the aptamer modified probe, and the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) spectra were investigated. The results showed that the scattering system can be used to quantitatively detect the Eca109 cell lines in the range 5.0×10 to 5.0×105 cells·mL-1 with a detection limit of 15 cells· mL-1.The system can also detect the KYSE510 cell lines in a linear range of 5.0×10 to 5.0×105 cells·mL-1 with a detection limit of 18 cells·mL-1 and the KYSE150 cell lines in a linear range of 3.0×10 to 5.0×105 cells·mL-1 with a detection limit of 12 cells·mL-1. To demonstrate the potential application of the RRS method for real sample analysis, cells were spiked into blank serum samples at concentrations from 1.0×102 to 1.0×105 cells·mL-1. The recovery was between 97.0% and 102.3%, and the RSD was between 1.1% and 4.9%, confirming the feasibility of the proposed method for ESCC cell determination.

Abstract
As the human population grows, the anthropogenic impacts from various agricultural and industrial processes produce unwanted contaminants in the environment. The accurate, sensitive and rapid detection of such contaminants is vital for human health and safety. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a valuable analytical tool with wide applications in environmental contaminant monitoring. The aim of this review is to summarize recent advancements within SERS research as it applies to environmental detection, with a focus on research published or accessible from January 2021 through December 2021 including early-access publications. Our goal is to provide a wide breadth of information that can be used to provide background knowledge of the field, as well as inform and encourage further development of SERS techniques in protecting environmental quality and safety. Specifically, we highlight the characteristics of effective SERS nanosubstrates, and explore methods for the SERS detection of inorganic, organic, and biological contaminants including heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, plastic particles, synthetic dyes, pesticides, viruses, bacteria and mycotoxins. We also discuss the current limitations of SERS technologies in environmental detection and propose several avenues for future investigation. We encourage researchers to fill in the identified gaps so that SERS can be implemented in a real-world environment more effectively and efficiently, ultimately providing reliable and timely data to help and make science-based strategies and policies to protect environmental safety and public health.
