We have studied the adsorption of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and catechin on readily available commercial zeolite beads. Both adsorbates became available on the zeolite and were several fold more concentrated after a simple adsorption process, contributing to a 10-times overall increase in the collision probability between the two adsorbates. We were further able to detect AgNP-induced Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) of catechin on the zeolite after sequential depositions of AgNPs and catechin on the zeolite using this process. To demonstrate high reproducibility, 93% of the zeolite sensors assembled this way were tested and proved satisfactory, and gave a distinctive catechin SERS signature. Preparation of the zeolite sensor was extremely easy with a nearly 90% yield.
