This research presents the study towards a glucose biosensor using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy with benzyl viologen boronic acid (BVB1). According to previous studies, glucose has been difficult to detect by SERS due to its poor Raman cross section and its inability to abso...
