Abstract
In recent years, ensuring the rational use and effective control of antibiotics has been a major focus in the eco-environment, which requires an effective monitoring method. However, on-site rapid detection of antibiotics in water environments remains a challenging issue. In this study, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) was used to systematically achieve selective, rapid, and highly sensitive detection of sulfonamides, based on their fingerprint characteristics. The results show that the trade-off between the competitive and coadsorption behaviors of target molecules and agglomerates (inorganic salts) on the surface of the SERS substrate determines whether the molecules can be detected with high sensitivity. Based on this, the qualitative differentiation and quantitative detection of three structurally similar antibiotics, sulfadiazine, sulfamerazine, and sulfamethazine, were achieved, with the lowest detectable concentration being 1 μg/L for sulfadiazine and 50 μg/L for sulfamerazine and sulfamethazine.
