Challenges in surface-enhanced Raman scattering signal for ethephon detection: Theoretical and experimental approaches
Ethephon, a widely used growth regulator in fruits and vegetables, requires careful monitoring because of its toxicity. However, as far as we know, only two works are found in the literature regarding surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) ethephon detection. Indeed, obtaining the SERS signal revealed to be challenging. Therefore, we have evaluated the SERS signal of ethephon using theoretical (as density functional theory and charge-assisted fragment interaction) and experimental approaches, addressing this limited literature knowledge. Theoretical Raman spectra with Ag or Au atoms at reactive sites exhibited enhanced ethephon SERS signal via AgCl bonding, consistent with the experimental data. Multiple experimental procedures were employed to obtain the SERS signal, including pH variations, salt addition, excitation laser lines, time dependency, and different SERS substrates (Ag colloid and Ag island films). Salt addition (NaCl) improved SERS signal, correlating with Ag colloid aggregation. Analysis in Ag colloid showed the pH 7.0 as optimal for ethephon detection, using freshly prepared Ag colloid + ethephon dispersion with ethephon powder being directly dissolved into Ag colloid. Only the AgCl band intensity improved with time. Ag colloid (wet medium — 633 nm laser line) outperformed Ag island films (dry medium — 785 nm laser line).
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Raman Spectroscopy is an international journal dedicated to the publication of original research at the cutting edge of all areas of science and technology related to Raman spectroscopy. The journal seeks to be the central forum for documenting the evolution of the broadly-defined field of Raman spectroscopy that includes an increasing number of rapidly developing techniques and an ever-widening array of interdisciplinary applications.
Such topics include time-resolved, coherent and non-linear Raman spectroscopies, nanostructure-based surface-enhanced and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopies of molecules, resonance Raman to investigate the structure-function relationships and dynamics of biological molecules, linear and nonlinear Raman imaging and microscopy, biomedical applications of Raman, theoretical formalism and advances in quantum computational methodology of all forms of Raman scattering, Raman spectroscopy in archaeology and art, advances in remote Raman sensing and industrial applications, and Raman optical activity of all classes of chiral molecules.
