ABSTRACT
Identification of components in pesticide mixtures has been a major challenge in spectral analysis. In this paper, we assembled monolayer Ag nanoparticles on Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plates to prepare TLC-Ag substrates with mixture separation and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection. Spectral scans were performed along the longitudinal direction of the TLC-Ag substrate to generate SERS spectra of all target analytes on the TLC plate. Convolutional neural network classification and spectral angle similarity machine learning algorithms were used to identify pesticide information from the TLC-SERS spectra. It was shown that the proposed automated spectral analysis method successfully classified five categories, including four pesticides (thiram, triadimefon, benzimidazole, thiamethoxam) as well as a blank TLC-Ag data control. The location of each pesticide on the TLC plate was determined by the intersection of the information curves of the two algorithms with 100 % accuracy. Therefore, this method is expected to help regulators understand the residues of mixed pesticides in agricultural products and reduce the potential risk of agricultural products to human health and the environment.
