Abstract

Flexible silver substrates were made by in situ reduction of silver nanoparticles in bacterial cellulose membranes using the unique advantage of dopamine. Subsequently, we modified the substrate with 4-mercaptophenol (4-MP), a molecule capable of specifically recognizing ClO–, and its corresponding SERS signal changes with the concentration of hypochlorite, thus allowing the quantitative detection of ClO– content. The method showed a negative linear correlation (R2 = 0.9567) with the SERS intensity at 1077 cm−1 over the concentration range 0.5–100 µM, and the detection limit was 0.15 µM. The RSD of the SERS intensity at 1077 cm−1 under five batches was 4.2%, which proved the good reproducibility of P-BCM-Ag NP-MP. Finally, the P-BCM-Ag NPs were used for the detection of hypochlorite in cell contents, artificial urine, and clinical serum samples, utilizing spike experiments in all three environments. The recoveries were in the range 90–110% indicating the accuracy of the method for the detection of hypochlorite and validating the promising application of this assay for practical detection in intricate biological samples.
