This study utilized nanoimprint technology to design a quantitative flexible biomimetic surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate enabled by internal standard (IS), achieving highly sensitive SERS detection and correcting the quantitative degree with the IS strategy. The research demonstrated the significance of manufacturing highly conformed SERS-active structures from the surface to be tested for achieving the maximum recovery rate.
Although biomimetic surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate which makes use of naturally existing raw materials have been fully utilized, it remains challenging to achieve credible quantitative detection. Herein, nanoimprint technology was exploited to engineer internal standard (IS) enabled quantitative flexible biomimetic SERS substrates, in which polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with intrinsic Raman signal was utilized as a tool to reversely duplicate surface structures from different agriculture products and then deposited with Ag nanoparticles. The resultant four kinds of biomimetic SERS substrates with different surface geometries all permit highly sensitive assay with enhancement factors (EFs) of about 10(6) in both drop-dry and in situ SERS detection modes. Moreover, the quantitative degree in the SERS detection was effectively corrected based on the IS strategy. Finally, an ingenious interactive in situ SERS detection was conducted. Interestingly, the maximum recovery rate was achieved when the template food was used as target surface compared with other foods, indicating the significance of manufacturing the highly conformed SERS-active structure from the surface to be tested. The proposed quantitative biomimetic SERS substrate is expected to be widely used in the field of biochemical supervision. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
