标题：SERS spectral study of HAuCl4-cysteine nanocatalytic reaction and its application for detection of heparin sodium with label-free VB4r molecular probe
摘要：In the presence of nanocatalyst, L-cysteine reduce HAuCl4 rapidly to form gold nanoparticles (AuNP), and a quick nanocatalytic preparation procedure was established for Au/AuNP sol with highly active surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effect and good stability. The nanoreaction was also studied by absorption, resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy spectra. In the selected conditions, the analyte heparin sodium (HS) could react with victoria blue 4 R (VB4r) to form associated complexes which have very weak SERS effect to make the SERS signals decrease. The SERS signals at 1617 cm(-1) reduced linearly with HS concentration increasing. Upon addition of FeCl3, it hydrolyzed to form stable Fe(OH)3 sol platform that carried SERS active Au/AuNPs to enhance the sensitivity. Accordingly, we established a SERS quantitative analysis method in the sol substrate of Fe(OH)3-Au/AuNPs, with a linear range of 0.5-75 ng/mL HS and a detection limit of 0.2 ng/mL. HS in real samples was determined, with a relative standard deviation of 2.65-7.63% and a recovery of 99.3-101%.
