SERS-Active Nanoparticles for Sensitive and Selective Detection of Cadmium Ion (Cd2+)

Abstract

We report a new class of turn-on surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors for the sensitive and selective detection of cadmium ion (Cd 2+ ) by taking advantage of the interparticle plasmonic coupling generated in the process of Cd 2+ -selective nanoparticle self-aggregation. The SERS-active nanoparticles consist of 41-nm gold nanoparticles, encoded with a Raman-active dye through a disulfide anchoring group, and a layer of Cd 2+ -chelating polymer brush coating grafted on the nanoparticle via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. These SERS nanoparticles are optimized to remain spectrally silent when staying as single particles. Addition of Cd 2+ leads to interparticle self-aggregation and immediately turns on the SERS fingerprint signal with up to 90-fold of signal enhancement. The selectivity of the SERS nanoparticle for Cd 2+ was also examined, showing that various common metal ions cannot induce interparticle self-aggregation and the turn-on of SERS signal. In contrast to nanoparticle-based colorimetric assays, the SERS probe is also capable of detecting Cd 2+ in heavily colored samples.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
