Abstract
A covalent organic framework-based strategy was designed for label-free colorimetric detection of pesticides. Covalent organic framework-based nanoenzyme with excellent oxidase-like catalytic activity was synthesized. Unlike other artificial enzymes, porphyrin-based covalent organic framework (p-COF) as the oxidase mimic showed highly catalytic chromogenic activity and good affinity toward TMB without the presence of H2O2, which can be used as substitute for peroxidase mimics and H2O2 system in the colorimetric reaction. Based on the fact that the pesticide-aptamer complex can inhibit the oxidase activity of p-COF and reduced the absorbance at 650 nm in UV-Vis spectrum, a label-free and facile colorimetric detection of pesticides was designed and fabricated. Under the optimized conditions, the COF-based colorimetric probe for pesticide detection displayed high sensitivity and selectivity. Taking fipronil for example the limit of detection was 2.7 ng/mL and the linear range was 5 -500,000 ng/mL. The strategy was successfully applied to the detection of pesticides with good recovery , which was in accordance with that of HPLC-MS/MS. The COF-based colorimetric detection was free of complicated modification H2O2, which guaranteed the accuracy and reliability of measurements. The COF-based sensing strategy is a potential candidate for the sensitive detection of pesticides of interests.
