Optimization of Aggregating agents and SERS Substrates for SERS detection of Cotinine and trans 3'-hydroxycotinine
This dissertation mainly focuses on applications of Surface Enhance Raman Scattering (SERS) to detect tobacco-related biomarkers with optimized experimental conditions (pH and aggregating agents) and SERS substrates (silica core and silver shell nanoparticles). Cotinine (COT) and trans 3-hydroxycoti...
