Abstract
This Direct Doctorate (DD) project proposes the development of sustainable hybrid substrates based on microfibers of modified cellulose with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs - negative) or Cu nanoparticles (CuNPs - positive) on their surface for the removal and detection via Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) of synthetic food dyes in aqueous media. The research will also explore molecular…
