Abstract Mycotoxins such as ochratoxin A, aflatoxin B1, fumonisin and others are well-known dangerous food contaminants that usually occur in trace amounts from nanograms to micrograms per gram of food. Due to their teratogenic and carcinogenic properties, mycotoxins present a serious hazard to human and animal health. The conventional detection methods such as high-performance liquid chromatography, mass spectroscopy and ELISA are extensively used for their quantitative analysis but they are rather expensive or time consuming; therefore, a new detection technique is still needed for the rapid and sensitive detection of Mycotoxins. For this purpose, we designed a novel SERS-based immunosensor for mycotoxin detection by combining a three-dimensional (3D) nano-pillar array chip with a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection technique. Upon target mycotoxins and mycotoxins antibody introduction, a competitive-type immunoreaction was implemented between the target and the immobilized mycotoxins-BSA on the 3D nano-pillar array chip. After this reaction, secondary antibodies conjugated on SERS nanotags were captured on the 3D nano-pillar array chip surface, forming a confined 3D plasmonic field, leading to the enhanced electromagnetic field on the 3D pillar surface. This work is expected to be a potentially useful tool for the rapid and sensitive detection of various mycotoxins.
