Fipronil is a phenylpyrazole insecticide commonly used in agriculture and residential applications. In this paper, we reported a novel label-free surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) method for detection of fipronil residues in chicken eggs (mostly accumulated on the egg membrane). We fabricated the SERS substrates composed of the SiO2@Au core/shell nanoparticles and probed the contamination of fipronil residue on the egg membrane. The identification of the characteristic Raman bands of fipronil was achieved with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculation, with which we could analyzed the trace amount of fipronil in a quantitative way. As such, this work may provide a practical solution to quick inspection of fipronil contamination in chicken eggs or other foods.
