Determination of aqueous antibiotic solutions using SERS nanogratings.

The emergence of antibiotics and their active metabolites in aquatic ecosystem has motivated the development of sensitive and reliable sensors to monitor traces of antibiotics and metabolites in drinking water sources (i.e. surface water).

Polarization-dependent surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from microarrays.

The convergence between nanometric sensing (e.g. surface-enhanced Raman scattering - SERS) and lab-on-chip technologies has emerged as a potential revolutionary approach for a variety of "real-world" applications.
