A portable colorimetric chemosensing regime for ractopamine in chicken samples using μPCD decorated by silver nanoprisms.

ABSTRACT: In recent years the use of ractopamine (RAC), originally synthesized for the treatment of respiratory diseases, is on the rise as a dietary supplement in animals. The excessive use of RAC has some adverse effects on human health. Hence, the demand for simple, easy-to-use, and expendable devices for RAC recognition, even in remote areas, is felt more than ever before. This need prompted us to devise a straightforward colorimetric system for RAC recognition based on the etching effect of RAC on AgNPrs. This nanoprobe is a very advanced materials with great optical properties and stability, which could be used unprecedentedly without any combination or reagents for RAC recognition. Considering the needs and advantages, a simple colorimetric chemosensor for the quantification of RAC was design
