Flexible, label free and low-cost paper based microfluidic SERS substrates for thiram detection

Tania K. Naqvi et al.

Summary: In this study, a low-cost, label-free flexible paper-based microfluidic SERS sensor was developed for thiram detection. Hydrophilic wells of different sizes were created on paper using wax-coated mould printing, and the hydrophilic nature of the wells was confirmed. Silver nanoparticles decorated graphene oxide nano-hybrid (Ag-rGO) was synthesized and drop-casted onto the wells for thiram detection, achieving fM sensitivity with a low limit of detection and high enhancement factor. The reproducibility and uniformity of the fabricated substrates were tested, showing good results. The Ag-rGO/wax paper (Ag-rGO/WP) SERS sensor has the potential to be used as a portable sensing platform for food safety applications.

Multifunctional light-controllable nanozyme enabled bimodal fluorometric/colorimetric sensing of mercury ions at ambient pH

Panwang Hu et al.

Summary: A controllable light-responsive multifunctional nanozyme, named Mn-CdTe particles, has been designed for the fluorometric/colorimetric dual-mode detection of toxic mercury ions (Hg2+) at ambient pH. The Mn-CdTe exhibits a light-triggered oxidase-mimicking catalytic behavior and bright photo-luminescence. The aggregation of Mn-CdTe induced by Hg2+ leads to the quenching of luminescence and a decrease in oxidase-mimetic activity.
