Abstract
The present invention provides a food detection system including: an extraction equipment, a liquid to be identified, a laser light source, a Raman spectrometer, and a metal-nanoparticle-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate. Without an addition of metal nanoparticles, the surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate of the present invention has better stability and reproducibility compared to those traditional surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate with metal nano particles. The present invention utilizes an anodic aluminum oxide substrate with two-dimensional and three-dimensional cavities, so that the surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate has high sensitivity, high stability, and high reproducibility, and may therefore shorten the detection time and production cost of food detection. The invention also provides a food detection method using the food detection system, which is cheap, fast, stable and reliable.
