Abstract

Although surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is an advanced analysis technique, the challenge of low specificity in real sample analysis remains. In this study, we synthesized a hybrid structure based on gold nanorods (AuNRs) coated with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as a SERS substrate. While the AuNRs strongly enhance the Raman signal of the analyte, the MIP layer allows specific trapping of analyte molecules close to the gold surface. A very thin film of polydopamine with exclusive cavities of rhodamine B enabled ultrasensitive detection of rhodamine B with a 120-fold increase compared to non-imprinted sample. The selectivity of our AuNR@MIP substrate for the detection of rhodamine B in a mixture of different dyes was also clearly improved. Fortunately, the AuNR@MIP substrate exhibited attractive accuracy and sensitivity toward rhodamine B in spiked orange juice samples. This report demonstrates a promising hybrid structure to improve SERS-based sensing of real samples.
