“…Compared with HPLC-MS, SERS does not require harsh solvents and a high power source, and it is easily compatible with other detection systems [21]. As a result, many studies have focused on the use of different nanoparticles (NPs) as substrates for SERS detection of pesticides, such as silver nanostructures [21,22,23,24,25,26], gold nanostructures [27,28,29,30,31], and graphene oxide [32,33]. Although these nanostructures could enhance the SERS signal up to 10 14 times, the practical application of SERS exhibits some technical challenges in the fabrication of reproducible, reliable, and robust SERS-active surfaces.…”
