We firstly applied this method for the detection of protein standards in buffer solution, obtaining the regression equation. Then, its potential value on real serum samples of AD was further explored.Results: The detection linear range of Aβ 1-42 and P-Tau-181 protein standards were observed to range from 100 pg mL− 1 to 10 fg mL− 1, 100 pg mL− 1 to 1 fg mL− 1 respectively. We finally explored clinical application of the proposed method in 63 serum samples. As a result, P-tau-181 differentiated AD from non-AD dementia patients (AUC = 0.770), with a more favored ROC than Aβ 1-42 (AUC =  0.383).Conclusion: The developed SERS-based immunoassay is successfully applied to the determination of Aβ 1-42 and P-Tau-181 in human serum specimens, which provides a promising tool for the early diagnosis of AD.Keywords: surface-enhanced Raman scattering, silver probe, Alzheimer’s disease, biomarker, diagnosis
