AB  - A one-pot hydrothermal synthesis of three-dimensional (3D), large-area, 
      bimetallic oxide NiCo(2)O(4) (NCO) microflowers has been developed as a novel 
      substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of flutamide in 
      biological fluids. The 3D flower-like morphology of the NCO is observed via FESEM 
      micrographs, while the orthorhombic phase formation is confirmed through XRD 
      spectra. Due to the presence of multiple coordination cations of the 3D NCO 
      microflowers (such as Ni(2+) and Co(2+)), the high surface area and surface 
      roughness, the NCO-modified indium tin oxide (NCO/ITO) SERS substrate exhibits a 
      linear detection range from 0.5-500 nM with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 
      0.1 nM. The SERS substrate provides a high enhancement factor of 1.864 x 10(6) 
      with an accumulation time of 30 s using a laser source of lambda = 532 nm, which can 
      be ascribed to the excellent and rapid interaction between the flutamide molecule 
      and the NCO microflower substrate that leads to photoinduced charge transfer 
      (PICT) resonance. The NCO/ITO substrate exhibits excellent homogeneity and high 
      chemical stability. Besides, the substrate displays an excellent selectivity to 
      flutamide molecules in the existence of other metabolites such as urea, ascorbic 
      acid (AA), glucose, NaCl, KCl, CaCl(2), and hydroxyflutamide. The NCO/ITO 
      substrate is successful in the trace-level detection of flutamide in simulated 
      blood serum samples. The strategy outlined here presents a novel strategy for the 
      efficacy of transition metal oxides (TMOs) based electrodes useful for a wide 
      variety of bioanalytical applications.
