Ultrasensitive iodide detection in biofluids based on hot electron-induced reduction of p-Nitrothiophenol on Au@Ag core-shell nanoparticles. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 235:115365. [PMID: 37196434 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
Surveillance of iodine intake is important because either inadequate or excessive amount of iodine may lead to thyroid malfunctions. Herein, we report a method for fast iodide quantification based on a plasmonic hot electron-driven chemical reaction, which occurs on Au@Ag core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) coated with p-nitrothiophenol (PNTP) molecules. Upon resonant light illumination, hot electron-hole pairs are generated in the NPs. The hot holes capture iodide ions (I-) and form AgI which decomposes under light; while the hot electrons are shifted to the electron orbital (LUMO) of PNTP and trigger its reduction to p-aminothiophenol (PATP). By measuring characteristic surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic (SERS) peaks of PNTP and PATP, the concentration of I- in water can be quantitatively determined, with a linear response in the 0.5-20 μM range and a detection limit of 0.30 μM. The Au@Ag nanosensor was then applied for I- detection in various biofluids including urine, serum and saliva, exhibiting superior detection sensitivity and high selectivity. This sensing assay requires a small sample volume of ∼10 μL and completes the entire detection process in ∼2 min, and therefore holds significant potential for application in point-of-care settings.

Abstract
Nanoimprint technology has the advantages of low cost, high precision, high fidelity and high yield. The metal nanoparticle fluid is non-Newtonian fluid, which is used as the imprint transfer medium to realize high fidelity of pattern because of its shear thinning effect. In order to functionalize the metal nanoparticles microstructure, the subsequent sintering step is required to form a metal interconnect wire. Metal interconnect wire with fewer grain boundaries and fewer holes have excellent mechanical and electronic properties. In this paper, the pseudoplastic metal nanoparticle fluid was formed by Ag nanoparticle and precursor solution, and then the thermal diffusion process was completed by microwave sintering after interconnects were embossed. The influence of microwave and thermal atmosphere on the microstructure and performance of Ag Interconnect wires was analyzed and discussed, and the Ag Interconnect wires performance was determined under the influence of time and temperature parameters. In our experiments, the interconnects after microwave sintering can achieve 39% of the conductivity of bulk silver. The microwave sintering module might be integrated as the heat treatment module of the metal micro/nano pattern directly imprint lithography.

Abstract
A facile and green strategy for the fabrication of fluorescent urea-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) has been explored. Significantly, the fluorescent N-CDs could recognize iodide ions (I-) with high selectivity, and their photoluminescence could be efficiently quenched by the addition of I-. The sensitivity analysis for I- indicated a linear relationship in the range from 12.5 to 587 μM with the detection limit as low as 0.47 μM. Furthermore, the I- induced fluorescence (FL) quenching mechanism was investigated employing a combination of techniques, including UV-vis/fluorescence spectroscopy, Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation, TEM and time-resolved fluorescence decay measurements. The DFT calculation results demonstrated that the amino- and amide groups of N-CDs play a significant role in iodide recognition through the formation of multiple N-H⋯I-, C-H⋯I- and C([double bond, length as m-dash]O)N-H⋯I- interactions with I-. The TEM experiment confirmed the aggregation process when I- was added to the N-CDs solution. Moreover, the radiative decay rate of N-CDs, which was first measured and reported the kinetic behaviors of the FL-quenching process, decreased from 3.30 × 107 s-1 to 1.95 × 107 s-1 after the coordination with I- ions. The reduced lifetime demonstrated that the excited energy dissipation led to a dynamic quenching process. Therefore, such carbon materials can function as effective fluorescent switches for the selective detection of I- ions.

Abstract
An electrochemical method has been developed to determine iodide in urine using an electrode modified with silver oxide microparticles-poly acrylic acid/poly vinyl alcohol (Ag2OMPs-PAA/PVA). Silver oxide particles were formed by electrochemical oxidation via cyclic voltammetry. The modified electrode exhibited an excellent response to iodide detection by cathodic stripping voltammetry. The fabrication and operation conditions were optimized in terms of PVA concentration, K2HPO4 concentration, amount of AgMPs-PAA/PVA, number of cycles for oxide formation, electrolyte, applied potential (vs. Ag/AgCl), and time. Under the optimum conditions, iodide determination produced a linear range from 1 to 40 μM. The limit of detection was 0.3 μM. Precision was found to be within 7.4% RSD. The developed method was applied to the determination of iodide in urine samples of pregnant women with satisfying recoveries (86 ± 1 to 108 ± 1%). Graphical abstract.

Abstract
A label-free fluorescent nanoprobe for iodide ion (I-) detection was developed based on the direct fluorescence quenching of spermine-functionalized carbon dots (SC-dots), whether in complex biological fluids or living cells. The positively charged SC-dots were fabricated via one-step microwave synthesis and exhibited excellent optical properties. Due to the strong quenching ability of I-, SC-dots were utilized for I- detection with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity, which offered a relatively low detection limit of 0.18 μM. This strategy was also successfully applied for I- detections in human serum and HeLa cells. The detection process is facile, highly sensitive and selective, providing a new insight into the potential applications of SC-dots for anion nanoprobe designs in clinical diagnosis and other biologically related areas.

Abstract
Water-soluble and reductive carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were fabricated by the hydrothermal carbonization of chitosan. Acting as a reducing agent and stabilizer, the as-prepared CQDs were further used to synthesize gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). This synthetic process was carried out in aqueous solution, which was absolutely "green". Furthermore, the CQDs/AuNPs composite was used to detect iodine ions by the colorimetric method. A color change from pink to colorless was observed with the constant addition of I- ions, accompanied by a decrease in the absorbance of the CQDs/AuNPs composite. According to the absorbance change, a favorable linear relationship was obtained between ΔA and I- concentration in the range of 20⁻140 μM and 140⁻400 μM. The detection limit of iodide ions, depending on the 3δ/slope, was estimated to be 2.3 μM, indicating high sensitivity to the determination of iodide. More importantly, it also showed good selectivity toward I- over other anion ions, and was used for the analysis of salt samples. Moreover, TEM results indicated that I- ions induced the aggregation of CQDs/AuNPs, resulting in changes in color and absorbance.

Abstract
A microfluidic method with front-face fluorometric detection was developed for the determination of total inorganic iodine in drinking water. A polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic device was employed in conjunction with the Sandell-Kolthoff reaction, in which iodide catalyzed the redox reaction between Ce(IV) and As(III). Direct alignment of an optical fiber attached to a spectrofluorometer was used as a convenient detector for remote front-face fluorometric detection. Trace inorganic iodine (IO3- and I-) present naturally in drinking water was measured by on-line conversion of iodate to iodide for determination of total inorganic iodine. On-line conversion efficiency of iodate to iodide using the microfluidic device was investigated. Excellent conversion efficiency of 93 - 103% (%RSD = 1.6 - 11%) was obtained. Inorganic iodine concentrations in drinking water samples were measured, and the results obtained were in good agreement with those obtained by an ICP-MS method. Spiked sample recoveries were in the range of 86%(±5) - 128%(±8) (n = 12). Interference of various anions and cations were investigated with tolerance limit concentrations ranging from 10-6 to 2.5 M depending on the type of ions. The developed method is simple and convenient, and it is a green method for iodine analysis, as it greatly reduces the amount of toxic reagent consumed with reagent volumes in the microfluidic scale.
