Its residues in honey pose a great danger to human health. In this study, a sensitive, rapid, and environmentally friendly surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy method (SERS) was developed for the determination of trace amount of amitraz in honey with the use of silver nanorod (AgNR) array substrate. The AgNR array substrate fabricated by an oblique angle deposition technique exhibited an excellent SERS activity with an enhancement factor of -10^7. Density function theory was employed to assign the characteristic peak of amitraz. The detection of amitraz was further explored and amitraz in honey at concentrations as low as 0.08 mg/kg can be identified. Specifically, partial least square regression analysis was employed to correlate the SERS spectra in full-wavelength with Camitraz to afford a multiple-quantitative amitraz predicting model. Preliminary results show that the predicted concentrations of amitraz in honey samples are in good agreement with their real concentrations. Compared with the conventional univariate quantitative model based on single peak’s intensity, the proposed multiple-quantitative predicting model integrates all the characteristic peaks of amitraz, thus offering an improved detecting accuracy and anti-interference ability.展开更多

Methods: There were thirty cases of pathologically proven brain tumor, including 6 Ⅰ-Ⅱ grade astrocytomas, 7 Ⅲ grade anaplastic astrocytomas, 10 IV grade glioblastomas and 7 meningiomas. Used Varian Company 600 MHz spectrometer with the Nano-probe for acquisition HRMASJHMRS, which was postprocessed with jMRUI 3.2 version software. These metabolic probability and their ratios to Cr were summed. Results: (1) HRMAS-^1HMRS could resolve NAA, PCr/Cr, GPC ± PCho ± Cho, Glu/GIn, Gly, Tau, Ala, Lac, ml and so on. All samples showed Lac, 6 samples showed unknown single peak at 3.72 ppm or 3.90 ppm. (2) The mean Cho/Cr of 6 Ⅰ-ⅡI grade astrocytomas was 2.42 ± 1.01 (P = 0.003, compared with glioblastoma). The mean Cho/Cr of 7 anaplastic astrocytomas was 3.48 ± 0.59 (P = 0.01, compared with glioblastoma). The Cho/Cr of 10 glioblastomas broadly ranged from 0.9 to 11.3 (mean 5.40 ± 1.23). From Ⅰ-Ⅱ grade astrocytoma to glioblastoma, Ala/Cr, Tau/Cr and Gly/Cr trends were increased; the mean Ala/Cr of glioma was 0.31 ± 0.13. (3) Meningiomas showed higher Ala and Cho. Their Cr was lower than that of gliomas. 4/7 cases had no NAA, 3/7 patients had lower NAA. Mean Cho/Cr was 3.56 ± 1.01, Ala/Cr was 0.53 ±0.28 (P = 0.006, compared with glioma). Conclusion: HRMAS-^1HMRS can show further details in vivo MRS, resolve in vivo spectroscopic metabolite of Cho compound and differentiate the extent of benign and malignant glioma. With the increase in the malignant degree of gliomas, Cho, ml, Ala, Tau and Gly will increase. HRMAS-^1HMRS is the only method of isotropic spectroscopy for pathological specimens.展开更多
