Abstract
The invention discloses a digital SERS chip for quantitatively detecting microorganisms and a preparation method thereof. The preparation process is simple, and can realize single-bacterium capture and digital quantitative detection of microorganisms.
Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy, in particular to a digital SERS chip for quantitatively detecting microorganisms and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The existing microorganism detection methods mainly comprise standard plate colony counting, polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the like. The colony counting method is a standard method for detecting microorganisms, is simple to operate and low in cost, but has a long detection period and cannot meet the requirement of rapid detection. Furthermore, many microorganisms (including viable but non-culturable cells) cannot be cultured at all, making this standard method unusable. ELISA and PCR can be detected within hours at the fastest speed, but both methods need complex pretreatment procedures and precise instruments, can be operated only by professionals, and are greatly limited in practical application.
The Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) technology has many advantages such as high detection sensitivity, fast detection speed, no water-based interference, "fingerprint" information, non-contact and non-destructive detection, and is very advantageous in the fast detection of microorganisms. Most of the reported researches reflect the concentration of a sample to be measured by measuring the intensity of an SERS spectrum after enhancing a Raman signal of the sample by an SERS substrate. This method has an important drawback that is difficult to overcome, namely: the enhancement of the SERS substrate on the spectrum signal mainly depends on a 'hot spot' generated by a plasma nano structure to enhance a weak Raman scattering signal, so that an enhancement factor is extremely sensitive to factors such as the distribution state and uniformity of the nano structure and the relative position of a sample molecule to be detected and the 'hot spot', most of the existing physical and chemical methods are difficult to prepare the SERS substrate with excellent uniformity and consistency on a nano scale, and therefore, the mode of measuring the strength of the SERS signal to reflect the concentration of the sample to be detected is adopted, the accuracy is not high, and the repeatability is not good. Methods such as electron beam lithography and particle beam etching are reported to be adopted to prepare the high-uniformity SERS substrate so as to improve the uniformity and the repeatability of signals, but the methods are very high in manufacturing cost and difficult to popularize in a large scale. Particularly for microorganism measurement, because the cell structure is complex, the volume is large, and the fluorescence signal is strong, the measurement accuracy of the existing SERS intensity measurement method for microorganisms is lower.
In order to overcome the problem, the invention designs a digital SERS chip, which realizes the capture of microorganisms by designing a micro-column array structure, and realizes the capture of single microorganism by optimizing the volume of a groove on a micro-column aiming at microorganisms with different volumes. Then, active point positions (micro-columns on which microorganisms are successfully paved) of the SERS chip are counted in a scanning mode, and the concentration of the microorganisms is measured by a mathematical statistics method. The method is insensitive to SERS signal intensity change, greatly reduces the requirement on uniformity of the SERS substrate, and can effectively improve the repeatability and precision of detection compared with the existing method.
