SERS in process analytics: when surface enhancement actually helps
SERS makes Raman a billion times stronger and a hundred times more fragile. For most inline measurements that is the wrong trade. The places where it pays off are narrow but real.

SERS makes Raman a billion times stronger and a hundred times more fragile. For most inline measurements that is the wrong trade. The places where it pays off are narrow but real.
Nine vendors, one technique. Where the differences actually matter — multi-channel architecture, probe ruggedization, software ecosystem, and regulatory track record — and how we evaluated them.
Both techniques measure chemical composition without sampling. The choice is rarely close once you map your process onto five questions: water, fluorescence, specificity, dynamic range, and probe access.
