Application of Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering Spectroscopy to the Determination of Environmental Contaminants

A review on the recent advances of application of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy to the determination of environmental contaminants was presented, covering mainly the years from 2002 to 2009, and relating especially to the topics on the application of SERS to analysis of microorganisms, pesticides residues, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and melamine (21 ref. cited).
