The detection of carbohydrates in human body fluids is critical for disease diagnosis and healthy monitoring. Despite recent advances in glucose sensing, multiplex detection of different carbohydrates within a single assay that is capable of efficiently providing richer health information remains challenging. Herein, we report a versatile surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy-based platform for the quantitative detection of monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, and galactose) in one test using a displace-and-trap mechanism. Moreover, due to the use of multiple optical interference-free (1800-2200 cm-1) signal-independent Raman probes, the detection range of this platform (0.125-7 mg/dL) perfectly covers physiological concentrations, enabling the quantitative detection of glucose and galactose in clinical human saliva samples. This work provides a noninvasive and high-efficiency potential tool for the screening of clinical diabetes and other carbohydrate-related diseases.
