An ink-jet printed, surface enhanced Raman scattering paper for food screening

Abstract

A printable, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active test strip, with in situ growth of gold nanoparticles on completely untreated paper, is demonstrated to screen for bio-toxins below the maximum residue levels in the European Union, in food. The cheap disposable strip produced from as-purchased printing paper can also be used for SERS mapping of fluorescent dyes.
