Amplification of Raman spectra by gold nanorods combined with chemometrics for rapid classification of four Pseudomonas

This paper demonstrates the application of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) using positive charged gold nanorods (Au NRs) as an enhancement substrate to classify Pseudomonas spp. coupled with multivariate methods. Four species of Pseudomonas as dominant spoilage bacteria of food were isolated from rotten chicken, namely, Pseudomonas gessardii (P9), Pseudomonas psychrophila (P8), Pseudomonas psychrophila (S2) and Pseudomonas fluorescens...
