CdSSe Nano-Flowers for Ultrasensitive Raman Detection of Antibiotics.

ABSTRACT: Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique is widely used for the highly sensitive detection of trace residues due to its unparalleled signal amplification ability and plays an important role in food safety, environmental monitoring, etc. Herein, CdSSe nano-flowers (CdSSe NFs) are synthesized via the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. CdSSe NFs thin film is used as a SERS substrate with an ultralow limit of detection (LOD, 10^-14 M), high apparent enhancement factor (EF, 3.62 × 10⁹), and excellent SERS stability (relative standard deviation, RSD = 3.05%) for probe molecules of Rh6G. Further, CdSSe NFs substrate is successfully applied in the sensitive, quantitative, and label-free analysis of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and enrofloxacin (ENR) antibiotics, which exhibit LODs of below 0.5 ppb. This excellent SERS platform may be widely utilized for sensitive life science and environmental sensing.

Project description:In this study, a widely used colloid of Creighton AgNPs (ORI, 1-100 nm, mostly ≤ 40 nm, ∼10 μg mL-1) was rapidly manipulated via tangential flow filtration (TFF) for highly reproducible surface-enhanced (resonance) Raman spectroscopy (SE(R)RS) experiments down to the single-molecule (SM) level. The quasi-spherical AgNPs were size-selected, purified, and concentrated in two TFF fractions of a cutoff diameter of ∼40 nm: AgNP ≤ 40 (∼900 μg mL-1) and AgNP ≥ 40 (∼100 μg mL-1). The SE(R)S-based sensing capabilities of the two TFF fractions were then tested under pre-resonance (632.8 nm) and resonance (532.1 nm) excitation conditions for rhodamine 6G (R6G, 10-6-10-15 M). Both TFF isolates, AgNP ≤ 40 and AgNP ≥ 40, were more effective in adsorbing the R6G analyte (≥91%) than the original colloid (≥78%) at submonolayer coverages. Furthermore, the surface enhancement factors (SEF) of the two TFF fractions were markedly superior to those of ORI under all excitation conditions. SERS at 632.8 nm: only AgNP ≥ 40 enabled the detection of R6G at 10-9 M and produced the largest SEF (2.1 × 106). SE(R)RS and SM-SERRS at 532.1 nm: AgNP ≥ 40 gave rise to the largest SEF values (2.5 × 1010) corresponding to the SM regime down to 10-15 M of R6G. Nevertheless, AgNP ≤ 40 compensated for the size-dependence of the electromagnetic enhancements by an increase in the silver concentration, which led to SEF values comparable to those of AgNP ≥ 40 through additional resonance enhancements. TFF resulted into a ∼100-fold increase (AgNP ≤ 40) in the number of negatively charged AgNPs that were available to electrostatically bridge R6G cations and form SERRS "hot-spots" (AgNP-R6G-AgNP) within the focal volume. Evidently, the interplay between AgNP size, AgNP concentration, and excitation wavelength governs the SE(R)RS enhancements. This study demonstrated that TFF can facilitate the ecofriendly isolation of spherical AgNPs of controlled morphological and plasmonic properties for further enhancing their sensing capabilities as SE(R)RS substrates.
