Simultaneous Detection of Clenbuterol and Higenamine in Urine Samples Using Interference-Free SERS Tags Combined with Magnetic Separation

Sports doping remains a significant challenge in competitive sports. Given that urine analysis is the standard for detecting doping, developing rapid, sensitive, accurate, and high-throughput methods for stimulant detection in urine is crucial. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tag-based immunoassays have emerged as powerful analytical tools known for their high sensitivity and specificity, holding particular promise for stimulant detection in urine samples. However, both the Raman signals of typical SERS tags and sample matrices are within the Raman fingerprint region (<1800 cm
