Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(Ⅵ)) is a significant environmental pollutant because of its toxic and carcinogenic properties and wide use in various industries. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop accurate and selective approaches to detect the concentration of Cr(Ⅵ) in agricultural and aquaculture products to help humans avoid potential hazards of indirectly taking in Cr(Ⅵ). In this work, we report a "turn off-on" fluorescent sensor based on citric acid coated, 808 nm-excited core-shell upconversion nanoparticles (CA-UCNPs) and self-assembled copper porphyrin nanoparticles (nano CuTPyP) for sensitive and specific detection of Cr(Ⅵ). Nano copper 5, 10, 15, 20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-21H-23H- porphine obtained by acid-base neutralization micelle-confined self-assembly method function as an effective quencher due to its excellent optical property and water solubility. Through electrostatic interactions, positively charged nano CuTPyP are attracted to the surface of negatively charged CA-UCNPs, which can almost completely quench the fluorescence emission. In the presence of Cr(Ⅵ), nano CuTPyP can discriminatively interact with Cr(Ⅵ) and form nano CuTPyP/Cr(Ⅵ) complex, which separates nano CuTPyP from CA-UCNPs and restores the fluorescence. The sensing system exhibits a good linear response to Cr(Ⅵ) concentration in the range from 0.5 to 400 µM with a detection limit of 0.36 µM. The sensing method also displays high selectivity against other common ions including trivalent chromium and is applied to the analysis of Cr(Ⅵ) in actual rice and fish samples with satisfactory results.

All-in-one strategy for the nano-engineering of paper-based bifunctional fluorescent platform for robustly-integrated real-time monitoring of food and drinking-water safety. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 467:133735. [PMID: 38335620 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Cu2+ contamination and food spoilage raise food and drinking water safety issues, posing a serious threat to human health. Besides, Cu2+ and H2S levels indicate excess Cu2+-caused diseases and protein-containing food spoilage. Herein, a coumarin-containing bifunctional paper-based fluorescent platform integrated with a straightforward smartphone color recognition app is developed by an all-in-one strategy. The proposed fluorescent materials can simultaneously detect Cu2+ and H2S for on-demand food and drinking water safety monitoring at home. Specifically, a coumarin-derived fluorescence sensor (referred to as CMIA) with a low detection limit (0.430 μM) and high-selectivity/-sensitivity for Cu2+ is synthesized through a simple one-step route and then loaded onto commercially used cellulose fiber filter paper to engineer a biomass-based fluorescent material (CMIA-FP). The CMIA-FP offers user-friendly, high-precision, fast-responsive, and real-time visual monitoring of Cu2+. Moreover, CMIA forms a chemically stable complex with Cu2+, loaded onto filter paper to prepare another biomass-based fluorescent platform (CMIA-CU-FP) for visual real-time monitoring of H2S. Based on the exquisite composition design, the proposed dual-function paper-based fluorescent materials equipped with a smartphone color recognition program concurrently realize fast, accurate, and easy real-time monitoring of Cu2+ in drinking water and H2S in chicken breast-/shrimp-spoilage, demonstrating an effective detection strategy for the Cu2+ and H2S monitoring and presenting the new type of biomass-based platforms for concentrated reflection of drinking water and food safety.
