Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is highly dependent on the adsorption of target molecules onto metallic surfaces, such as colloidal nanoparticles. The selection suitable substrates crucial for optimizing SERS performance. Herein, we investigated dependence two pesticide signals, thiabendazole (TBZ) and carbendazim (MBC), both Ag nanoparticles (reduced by hydroxylamine—AgH or citrate—AgCT) aggregation conditions induced adding different salts (NaCl, KCl KNO3). In addition to...

Detection of the drug Levodopa (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, L-Dopa) is essential for medical treatment several neural disorders, including Parkinson’s disease. In this paper, we employed surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with three shapes silver nanoparticles (nanostars, AgNS; nanospheres, AgNP; and nanoplates, AgNPL) to detect L-Dopa in nanoparticle dispersions. The sensitivity SERS signal depended on both shape concentration. adsorption mechanisms inferred from a detailed analysis...

Experimental efforts aimed at detecting levodopa (l-DOPA) using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) face a persistent challenge in obtaining SERS signal with negatively charged nanoparticles. This stems from the repulsion between deprotonated l-DOPA aqueous solution and surface of nanoparticles, revealing dependencies on time concentration to achieve signal. study explores adsorption mechanism gold nanorods (AuNRs) covered cetrimonium bromide (CTAB) bilayer as colloidal solution,...

Growing food demand has been addressed by protecting crops from insects, weeds, and other organisms increasing the application of pesticides, thus risk environmental contamination. Many such as triazines, are poorly soluble in water require trace detection methods, which normally achieved with high-cost sophisticated chromatography techniques. Here, we combine surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) multidimensional projection techniques to detect toxic herbicide prometryn ultrapure,...

The recent development of silver nanostars (Ag-NSs) is promising for improved surface-enhanced sensing and spectroscopy, which may be further exploited if the mechanisms behind excitation localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) are identified. Here, we show that LSPRs in Ag-NSs can obtained with finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) calculations by considering as combination crossed nanorods (Ag-NRs). In particular, demonstrate an apparent tail at large wavelengths ( λ ≳ 700 nm) observed...
