Microwave, Ultrasound-Assisted, and Room Temperature One-Pot Synthesis of Silver and Gold Colloids Using Beta-Cyclodextrin as a Reducing and Capping Agent for SERS Applications

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are macrocycles that are well suited for forming inclusion complexes for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of analytes due to their low Raman activity, which minimizes background SERS signals and enhances the detection of target molecules without interference. In...
