Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-involved metabolites are widely engaged in cellular metabolism, and play significant roles in cell proliferation, cell growth, and signaling transduction. It is highly desirable to establish a method for the detection of H2O2-involved metabolites for applications ranging from chemical sensing to biomedical diagnosis. Herein, monodispersed sandwich Au@4-MBN@Ag@PEG nanorods (referred to as AMPRs) with bright Raman emission were developed to serve as a universal platform for detecting H2O2-involved metabolites (4-mercaptobenzonitrile is abbreviated to 4-MBN as the Raman reporter and PEG is polyethylene glycol). The system detects metabolites through changes in the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectrum, resulting from the controllable etching of the silver layer by the H2O2 produced by the metabolites. The inte-grative nanoplatform was successfully used to quantify the levels of glucose, lactate, and choline in aqueous solutions by exploiting the close linear relationship between the intensity of a SERS band and the logarithmic concentration of H2O2. The presented SERS nanoplatform demonstrated considerable practicability for the detection of glucose in cerebrospinal fluid samples (with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.76 mu M), and was capable of distinguishing infected from uninfected individuals. Therefore, the SERS sensor provides a new platform for the detection of H2O2-involved metabolites in biological fluids, and has potential for use in metabolite analysis and biomedical diagnostics.
