A single step fast track method is proposed to determine melamine based on strong hydrogen bonding between exocyclic amine group in melamine moiety and hydroxyl group of tannic acid (TA); acting as reducing and functionalizing agent for synthesis of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). The proposed strategy is facile and highly time saving; as the detection of melamine with labelfree gold nanoparticles was accomplished within five minutes. The colorimetric probe exhibits high detection limit of 8 nM for melamine determination in raw milk, which is very low as compared to other capping ligands employed for Au NPs such as borohydride, citrate and 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid. The results show a highly sensitive linear range (0.03-2.5 M) between absorption ratio and concentration of melamine with a correlation coefficient of 0.991. Proposed methodology is proven effective for on-site screening without using costly instrumentation.
