Description
Chen and co-authors build a fast test for drug traces left in food and feed. The drugs are three forms of tetracycline, a drug class used in farm animals. Their test uses tiny gold clusters that glow blue under light.
The clusters form in one pot with proline and sodium alginate as stabilizers. This mix glows more brightly and lasts longer than proline alone. When the target drugs are present, the glow changes in a way that can be measured. The method aims at low cost checks of meat, milk, and feed.
