Rapid and sensitive methods have been developed to detect foodborne pathogens, a development that is important for food safety. The aim of this study is to explore Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with silver nano substrates to detect and identify the following three foodborne pathogens:  Escherichia coli  O157: H7,  Staphylococcus aureus  and  Salmonella . All the cells were resuspended with 10 mL silver colloidal nanoparticles, making a concentration of 10 7  CFU/mL, and were then exposed to 785 nm laser excitation. In this study, the results showed that all the bacteria can be sensitively and reproducibly detected directly by SERS. The distinctive differences can be observed in the SERS spectral data of the three food-borne pathogens, and the silver colloidal nanoparticles can be used as highly sensitive SERS-active substrates. In addition, the assay time required only a few minutes, which indicated that SERS coupled with the silver colloidal nanoparticles is a promising method for the detection and characterization of food-borne pathogens. At the same time, principle component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) made the different bacterial strains clearly differentiated based on the barcode spectral data reduction. Therefore, the SERS methods hold great promise for the detection and identification of food-borne pathogens and even for applications in food safety.
