A novel chemiluminescence method coupled with flow injection technique for the determination of ractopamine was developed. It was based on the enhancement of the chemiluminescence by ractopamine derived from the chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and ferricyanide in sodium hydroxide medium. The linear calibration range of the chemiluminescence intensity with respect to the ractopamine concentration covers from 4.0 x 10(-9) - 8.0 x 10(-7) g x mL(-1). The relative standard deviation for ractopamine is 5.6% (n = 11), and the detection limit is 2.5 x 10(-9) g x mL(-1). The method was firstly applied to the determination of ractopamine in biological samples with satisfactory results. The recovery was between 69.3% and 101.3%.

As the most widely used immunoassay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) relies on perishable enzymes and usually provides poor sensitivity and stability, limiting its application in detecting trace analytes in harsh environments. Herein, a new ratiometric fluorescence (RF) sensing platform enhanced by a nanozyme-enzyme cascade reaction composed of MnO nanosheets (MnO NSs) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was proposed. In this RF platform, the versatile MnO NSs worked as a robust oxidase-like nanozyme to catalyze nonfluorescent Amplex Red (AR) into fluorescent resorufin and as a quencher to quench the fluorescence of carbon dots (CDs).

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) holds great potential due to its rapid detection and high sensitivity. However, issues such as signal noise, fluctuations, and spectral shifts can negatively impact its performance in detecting ractopamine in pork. Hierarchical Gradient Aware Spectral Network (HGASNet) was proposed to address these issues.

A novel microfluidic ractopamine (RAC) detection platform consisting of a microfluidic RAC chip and a smart analysis device is proposed for the determination of RAC concentration in meat samples. This technology utilizes gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) modified with glutamic acid (GLU) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) to measure RAC concentration in food products. When RAC is present, AuNPs aggregate through hydrogen bonding, causing noticeable changes in their optical properties, which are detected using a self-built UV-visible micro-spectrophotometer.
