Potato is one of the most important food crops worldwide in terms of human consumption. However, potato farmers employ a variety of pesticides to protect crops from harmful insects and illnesses, and difenoconazole is a commonly used one that has severe effects on human health and the environment. Therefore, detecting difenoconazole quickly and correctly is critical. In this work, we fabricated AgNPs/cicada wing substrates using natural cicada segments, decorated with silver nanoparticles for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurements to detect trace amounts of difenoconazole in potatoes. Results indicated that a linear relationship with the coefficient of detection (R-2) of 0.987 and the detection limit (LOD) of 0.016 ppm was observed by targeting a distinctive peak at 808 cm(-1) and logarithmic difenoconazole concentrations of 0.1 to 100 ppm. In addition, difenoconazole LODs in potatoes were 63 mu g/kg, lower than those specified by the EU (0.1 mg/kg) and Vietnam (4 mg/kg) utilizing this new technique. Therefore, this proposed SERS method could be used to detect difenoconazole in potatoes at trace levels. (C) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
