Whole-cell SERS fingerprints for rapid toxicant attribution in water
Abstract
at 1 h. Additionally, the method was successfully applied to spiked river and lake water samples, achieving high accuracy in distinguishing various toxicants despite the presence of background interference. These results demonstrate the applicability of whole-cell SERS fingerprinting for distinguishing representative metal and organic toxicants and support the use of multi-strain biosensor strategies for rapid toxicity screening and preliminary toxicant discrimination in water monitoring applications.
