We studied surface enhanced Raman spectra of amino acids D-alanine and DL-serine and their mixture on silver nanoisland films (SNF), immersed in phosphate buffer saline solution at millimolar amino acid concentrations. It is shown that the spectra from the amino acid solutions differ from the reference spectra for microcrystallites due to electrostatic orientation of amino acid zwitterions by the metal nanoisland film. Moreover, non-additive peaks are observed in the spectrum of the mixture of amino acids adsorbed on SNF, which means that intermolecular interactions between adsorbed amino acids are very significant. The results indicate the need for a thorough analysis of the Raman spectra from amino acid solutions in the presence of a nanostructured metal surface, and may also be of interest for studying molecular properties and intermolecular interactions.
