Abstract

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based aptasensor platform, using double strand DNA-embedded Au/Ag core–shell nanoparticles, has been developed for the ultrasensitive detection of bisphenol A (BPA) in water. By combining optimally controlled Au/Ag core–shell nanoparticles with the selective BPA binding characteristics of DNA aptamers, a highly sensitive limit of detection (LOD) of 10fM could be achieved for BPA-spiked tap water over a wide concentration range from 100nM to 10fM. This LOD is two or three orders of magnitude lower than that reported for other BPA sensing techniques, and also yields a detection limit that is 100–1000 times lower than the USEPA-defined Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC) values in potable water. Total detection time is estimated to be about 40min including the reaction between aptamer and BPA (30min) and detection (10min). This sensing platform is also suitable for field applications since measurement can be performed under aqueous colloidal conditions.
