Advances in Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy for Detection of Environmental Pollutants
With the increasing severity of environmental problems,environmental pollution have become a major global issue that poses a threat to human health and the ecological environment.Surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS),with its distinctive"spectral fingerprinting"capability,swift responsiveness,and non-invasive analytical approach,has risen as a formidable instrument for the detection of such environmental contaminants.The advancement of SERS-based nanostructures,coupled with the advent of portable Raman spectrometers,heralds a new era for this cutting-edge detection technology,particularly in the realm of on-site rapid analysis.This review meticulously charts the research trajectory of SERS applications in the detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs),pesticides,antibiotics,heavy metals,and atmospheric particulate.We have delineated prospective avenues for the technology's evolution within environmental sciences,with the aspiration of furnishing invaluable perspectives that will catalyze future explorations in the domain.
