Application of a Novel Au@ZIF-8 Composite in the Detection of Bisphenol A by Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor which is widely present in fish under the influence of environmental pollution. It is essential to establish a rapid detection method for BPA. Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) is a typical metal-organic framework material (MOFs) with a strong adsorption capacity, which can effectively adsorb harmful substances in food. Combining MOFs and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) can achieve rapid and accurate screening of toxic substances. In this study, a rapid detection method for BPA was established by preparing a new reinforced substrate Au@ZIF-8. The SERS detection method was optimized by combining SERS technology with ZIF-8. The Raman peak at 1172 cm^-1 was used as the characteristic quantitative peak, and the lowest detection concentration of BPA was as low as 0.1 mg/L. In the concentration range of 0.1~10 mg/L, the linear relationship between SERS peak intensity and the concentration of BPA was good, and R² was 0.9954. This novel SERS substrate was proven to have great potential in rapidly detecting BPA in food.
