Abstract
We present surface enhanced Raman optical activity (SEROA), as well as Raman, SERS and ROA, spectra of d- and l-ribose. By employing a gel forming polyacrylic acid to control colloid aggregation and associated birefringent artefacts we observe the first definitive proof of SEROA through measurement of mirror image bands for the two enantiomers. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.
