Abstract
With four nanoparticles as the nanomatrix, dinotefuran (DNF) as the template molecule, N -isopropylacrylamide as the functional monomer, trimethylolpropane and trimethacrylate as the cross-linker, four nanosurface molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) bifunctional probes were prepared by microwave synthesis. It was found that palladium nanosurface MIP (Pd@MIP) not only recognized DNF but also had the strongest catalytic effect on the new nanogold indicator reaction of acrylic acid-HAuCl 4, which was evaluated quickly with the slope procedure developed by us. The generated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) not only possessed the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) effect but also strong surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity. The combination of Pd@MIP with DNF enhanced the catalytic effect by coupling the nanosurface electrons with π-electrons, thus enhancing both scattering signals. A new Pd@MIP nanoprobe catalytic-SERS/RRS dual-mode analytical platform was developed for the specific and sensitive detection of DNF. The linear ranges of the SERS and RRS methods were 0.075–0.75 and 0.1–0.75 nmol/L, and the limits of detection were 0.03 and 0.06 nmol/L, respectively. The standard deviations were 0.54–2.39%, and the recoveries were 93–105%.
