    Area of Science:

    • Environmental Science
    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Neonicotinoid insecticides, like thiacloprid, pose significant environmental risks, including harm to insects and birds.
    • Developing sensitive detection methods for these pesticides is crucial for environmental monitoring and risk assessment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) performance of silver nanocubes and nanospheres for thiacloprid analysis.
    • To establish a SERS-based method for detecting thiacloprid in environmental samples.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication and characterization of silver nanocube- and nanosphere-based SERS substrates.
    • SERS analysis of thiacloprid using both types of silver nanostructures.
    • Determination of the limit of detection for thiacloprid.

    Main Results:

    • Silver nanocube-based SERS substrates exhibited superior performance compared to nanosphere-based substrates.
    • Thiacloprid was successfully detected at a concentration of 1 mM using the silver nanocube SERS substrate.
    • The study highlights the potential of nanocube morphology in enhancing SERS sensitivity.

    Conclusions:

    • Silver nanocubes are effective SERS substrates for the sensitive detection of the neonicotinoid thiacloprid.
    • This SERS approach offers a promising method for environmental monitoring of pesticide residues.
    • Further research could optimize SERS substrates for even lower detection limits of neonicotinoids.
