摘要

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an advanced method with simple operation, small amount of specimens needed as well as rapid online screening, detection and identification; it shows enormous potential in food safety field including illegal dyes and foreign protein in food, bioanalytical, drugs and explosives and other application fields. The progresses in the application of SERS in the detection of food contaminants and adulteration, concentrated specifically on antibiotics, drugs, hormones, melamine, and pesticides were reviewed.
