Fiber optic SERS sensors for rapid detection and identification of salmonella in turkey products

Authors:

Abstract
This study validates a fiber optics-based surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensor for detecting Salmonella in raw turkey samples. The sensor uses nanoantenna arrays on a side-polished optical fiber core with a fixed periodicity of 0.77 μm to maximize the SERS signal intensity. A 3D-printed chamber and microstructure optimize light reflection, improving sensitivity. The sensor detects Salmonella at 0.4-0.5 CFU/ml in 10 minutes, offering cost-effective, portable pathogen detection.
