Title: Fabrication of paper-based SERS substrates by spraying silver and gold nanoparticles for SERS determination of malachite green, methylene blue, and crystal violet in fish. Author: Yang G, Fang X, Jia Q, Gu H, Li Y, Han C, Qu LL. Journal: Mikrochim Acta; 2020 May 04; 187(5):310. PubMed ID: 32367314. Abstract: A disposable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate was prepared by successively spraying silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) onto commercial filter paper using an inexpensive consumer sprayer. The strong surface enhancement of AgNPs and chemical stability of AuNPs can be advantageously combined. The substrate exhibited excellent SERS activity for malachite green (MG), methylene blue (MB), and crystal violet (CV) under 785-nm excitation, with limits of detection (LODs) of 4.3 × 10-9, 2.0 × 10-8, and 8.1 × 10-8 M, respectively. The substrate exhibited long-term stability, and it can be stored under ambient conditions for 4 weeks with a relative standard deviation of less than 3% among peak intensities. The substrate also showed good reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of 7.1% among different substrate peak intensities. The substrates enable on-site determination of residual fishery drugs and distinguish MG, MB, and CV mixtures in spiked fish within 5 min, and the average recoveries in fish scales and fish meat were better 90.1% and 76.9%, respectively. The method exhibited rapidity, simplicity, and high sensitivity and is expected to be used for the screening of additives in food.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
