    Abstract:
    This work aims to isolate and detect pesticide (carbendazim) residue in real food samples: orange juice and kale leaves. The combination of on-chip thin layer chromatography (TLC) and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy was used for the separating and detecting of carbendazim (MBC) from the complex food sample. In order to achieve on-site detection of MBC from real food sample, the portable Raman spectrometer was coupled with TLC-SERS. The porous stationary phase composed of diatomite biosilica is beneficial for SERS enhancement and eluent migration. The experiments exhibited that the diatomite chip was suitable for TLC separation and has not shown SERS background and provided excellent separation efficiency, 10-8 M silver colloids were appropriate for the SERS measurement on TLC chip. The food sample was directly spotted onto the diatomite chip for TLC separation without any pretreatment. The separation and detection process were finished in less than 5 min, the mixture of pyrimethanil, pymetrozine and MBC could be distinguished simultaneously by TLC-SERS at one diatomite chip. The MBC in orange juice and kale were successfully detected, and a limit of detection (LOD) less than 2 ppm could be achieved.
