Abstract
Rapid and sensitive detection of food-borne bacteria has remained challenging over the past few decades. We propose a surface-enhanced Raman scattering sensing strategy based on a novel bioinspired surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate, which can directly detect dye molecular residues and food-borne pathogen microorganisms in the environment. The surface-enhanced Raman scattering platform consists of a natural diatomite microporous array decorated with a metal-phenolic network that enables the in situ reduction of gold nanoparticles. The as-prepared nanocomposites display excellent surface-enhanced Raman scattering activity with the lowest limit of detection and the maximum Raman enhancement factor of dye molecules up to 10-11 M and 1.18 × 107, respectively. For food-borne bacterial detection, a diatomite microporous array decorated with a metal polyphenol network and gold nanoparticle-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering analysis is capable of distinguishing the biochemical fingerprint information of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, indicating the great potential for strain identification.
