The detection of carbohydrates in human body fluids is critical for disease diagnosis and healthy monitoring. Despite recent advances in glucose sensing, multiplex detection of different carbohydrates within a single assay that is capable of efficiently providing richer health information remains challenging. Herein, we report a versatile surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy-based platform for the quantitative detection of monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, and galactose) in one test using a displace-and-trap mechanism. Moreover, due to the use of multiple optical interference-free (1800-2200 cm) signal-independent Raman probes, the detection range of this platform (0.125-7 mg/dL) perfectly covers physiological concentrations, enabling the quantitative detection of glucose and galactose in clinical human saliva samples. This work provides a noninvasive and high-efficiency potential tool for the screening of clinical diabetes and other carbohydrate-related diseases.

Comprehending the biosensing mechanism of the biosensor interface is crucial for sensor development, yet accurately reflecting interfacial interactions within actual detection environments remains an unsolved challenge. An operando photoelectrochemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (PEC-SERS) biosensing platform was developed, capable of simultaneously capturing photocurrent and SERS signals, allowing operando characterization of the interfacial biosensing behavior. Porphyrin-based MOFs (Zr-MOF) served as bifunctional nanotags, providing a photocurrent and stable Raman signal output under 532 nm laser irradiation.

The effective qualitative and quantitative detection of mixed components of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with similar molecular structures has always been a challenge and hotpoint in the research. A novel quartz-crystal microbalance (QCM) nanocomposite sensor integrated with a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection platform for multi-component gas analysis was proposed and fabricated in this paper. MIL-100 (Fe)/PAN composite fibers were developed on QCM via electrospinning of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and hydrothermal synthesis, addressing the integration issues of MIL-100 particles in devices while maintaining high specific surface area.

Owing to its high sensitivity, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has immense potential for the identification of lung cancer from the variation in volatile biomarkers in the exhaled gas. However, two prevailing factors limit the application of SERS: 1) the adsorption of target molecules into SERS hotspots and 2) the detection specificity in multiple interference environments. To improve the density of the SERS hotspots, 3D Au@Ag-Au particles are prepared in a porous nanoframes (PPFs) based plasmonic structure, which facilitated a richer local electromagnetic field distribution among the Au nanocubic (NC) cores, Au-Ag porous nanoframes, and Au nanoparticles, thereby promoting the adsorption probability of gaseous aldehydes into the hotspots.

This study reports the synthesis of plasmonic hot nanogap networks-in-triangular nanoframes (NITNFs), featuring narrow intraparticle nanogap networks embedded within triangular nanoframes. Starting from Au nanotriangles, Pt NITNFs are synthesized through a cascade reaction involving simultaneous Pt deposition and Au etching in a one-pot process. The Pt NITNFs are then transformed into plasmonically active Au NITNFs via Au coating.

A polyethyleneimine (PEI)-assisted simple and efficient one-pot hydrothermal reduction method is reported to prepare high-quality gold nanodendrites (AuNDs) on a carbon nanotube (CNT) sheet. We observed that the prepared AuNDs have a well-defined backbone-multiple branching structure. With the systematical investigation of the growth mechanism, it was found that the bromide (Br) ion concentration has an essential effect on the formation of AuNDs.
