On-Mask Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Related Substances by Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering
Talanta(2024)
Abstract
We have developed a convenient surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platform based on vertical standing gold nanowires (v-AuNWs) which enabled the on-mask detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) related substances such as the Spike-1 protein and the corresponding pseudo-virus. The Spike-1 protein was clearly distinguished from BSA protein with an accuracy above 99%, and the detection limit could be achieved down to 0.01 μg/mL. Notably, a similar accuracy was achieved for the pseudo-SARS-CoV-2 (pSARS-2) virus as compared to the pseudo-influenza H7N9 (pH7N9) virus. The sensing strategy and setups could be easily adapted to the real SARS-CoV-2 virus and other highly contagious viruses. It provided a promising way to screen the virus carriers by a fast evaluation of their wearing v-AuNWs integrated face-mask which was mandatory during the pandemic.
