Abstract

Currently, the detection of pesticide is critical for food safety assurance, but it is still challenging due to the presence of biological interferents from complex food matrix. In this study, we developed an optical anti-interference surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) aptasensor system for trace detection of acetamiprid. 4-(Mercaptomethyl) benzonitrile (MMBN) containing CN bond was used as Raman tag to provide a sharp peak (2227 cm) in the Raman-silent spectral window (1800-2800 cm) where no Raman signal existed for most of molecules. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) bonded with polyadenine (polyA)-mediated aptamer and Raman tag (MMBN-AuNPs-aptamer) was synthesized as Raman probe, while the complementary DNA (cDNA) conjugated with AgNPs-decorated silicon wafer (AgNPs@Si) was used as SERS substrate. As acetamiprid molecule could specifically combine with aptamer, preventing the formation of MMBN-AuNPs-aptamer-cDNA-AgNPs@Si (expressed as "Au-AgNPs@Si") hybrid through DNA sequence linking, Raman signal intensities of MMBN in Au-AgNPs@Si decreased when the concentration of acetamiprid increased. Under the optimum assay condition, the proposed method displayed a linear response for acetamiprid detection in the range of 25-250 nM with a low detection limit of 6.8 nM. Finally, the developed aptasensor was successfully used to determine acetamiprid content in apple juice. Accordingly, this novel anti-interference SERS aptasensor could be a promising acetamiprid sensor for food safety assurance.
