Abstract

A new method is proposed for detecting typical melamine dopants in food using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biosensing technology. Melamine specific aptamer was used as the identification probe, and gold magnets (AuNPs@MNPs) and small gold nanoparticles (AuNPs@MBA) were used as the basis for Raman detection. The Raman signal of the detection system can directly detect melamine quantitatively. Under optimized conditions, the detection of melamine was carried out in the low concentration range of 0.001-500mg/kg, the enhancement factor (EF) was 2.3 × 107, and the detection limit was 0.001mg/kg. The method is sensitive and rapid, and can be used for the rapid detection of melamine in the field environment.
