Abstract:

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)-based microchannel device was fabricated by self-assembling silver colloids. The detection limits of the device for rhodamine 6G(R6G) and 4-mercaptopyridine(4-MPY) were as low as 10-11 and 10-8 mol/L, respectively, therefore, the device is a very efficient SERS-active substrate. Furthermore, two hazardous chemicals, Thiram and Melamine, were detected by the microchannel device. The detection limits for Melamine and Thiram were 10-6 and 10-7 mol/L, respectively. The results show that the microchannel device can be used to analyze these two harmful chemicals. It can be used as a miniature SERS sampling setup to detect trace amount of chemicals and for on-line or in-situ detection, and have the potential for the microanalysis of liquid chemicals.

Key words: Surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS), Microchannel device, Melamine, Thiram
