Colorimetric sensor arrays for the differentiation of baijiu based on amino-acid-modified gold nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: It is of great significance for quality control to realize the discrimination for baijiu from different brands and origins. Strong-aroma-type baijiu (SAB), one of the most important Chinese aroma-type baijiu, exhibits the largest variety and market share. In this study, we proposed colorimetric sensor arrays based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) modified with different amino acids (AAs) to recognize the organic acids, and further distinguish different SABs. Three representative AAs, namely methionine (Met), tryptophan (Trp), and histidine (His), were selected to modify the AuNPs surface. The investigation of the effect of the main ingredients of SAB on AA@AuNPs aggregation confirmed that this aggregation mainly resulted from organic acids. Moreover, this aggregation was successfully used for
