[PMID: 38585100 PMCID: PMC10993273 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c08573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/09/2024]
Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is closely linked to not only environmental hazards, but also it affects human health due to its toxic nature and the exposure risks associated with several occupational settings. Therefore, detection of this pollutant in water sources has garnered immense importance in the analytical research arena. Several research groups have devoted great efforts to explore the selective as well as sensitive methods to detect H2S concentrations in water. Recent studies describe different strategies for sensing this ubiquitous gas in real-life water samples. Though many of the designed and developed H2S detection approaches based on the use of organic small molecules facilitate qualitative/quantitative detection of the toxic contaminant in water, optical detection has been acknowledged as one of the best, attributed to the simple, highly sensitive, selective, and good repeatability features of the technique. Therefore, this review is an attempt to offer a general perspective of easy-to-use and fast response optical detection techniques for H2S, fluorimetry and colorimetry, over a wide variety of other instrumental platforms. The review affords a concise summary of the various design strategies adopted by various researchers in constructing small organic molecules as H2S sensors and offers insight into their mechanistic pathways. Moreover, it collates the salient aspects of optical detection techniques and highlights the future scope for prospective exploration in this field based on the limitations of the existing H2S probes.

Gao G, Qi J, Fu L, Zhao R, Zhang Z, Chen L. Portable instrument based on color sensor chip for on-site rapid detection of dissolved sulfides in environmental water samples. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 460:132440. [PMID: 37660620 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.132440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
To ensure real-time validity of the detection of unstable toxic environmental pollutants, such as dissolved sulfides, we developed a portable on-site rapid analysis instrument. Through novel design of the color sensor chip-based core sensing components and the conversion between color signal and absorbance by Lambert's law, the instrument showed great performance for rapid (within 3 min) and sensitive on-site detection of sulfides in the environment. It is easy to achieve user-friendly, sample in-answer out, one-stop operation due to the touch-screen-integrated user interface of the instrument's data terminal. The detection limit of this method is 2.24 μg/L, the linear operation range is 0-1000 μg/L, and the coefficient of determination is 0.999. This instrument has been successfully applied to the on-site determination of sulfides in the Yellow River Delta and the Yantai Guangdang River in China. The portable instrument showed excellent anti-interference, good stability, and simple operation, which showed great prospects for the on-site rapid analysis of unstable targets in the environment.

Abstract
To monitor Cu2+ efficiently, a kind of D-π-A-π-D conjugated 3,5-di-(2-hydroxyl naphthaldehyde)-iminyl triazole (HNIT) was developed, using triazole as the electron acceptor, 2-hydroxyl naphthaline as the electron donor, and -CN- as the bridging group. The proposed HNIT possessed superior UV-vis and fluorescent spectral property with high molar absorption coefficient of 2.313 × 104 L mol-1 cm-1 and fluorescence quantum yield of 36.2%. Trace Cu2+ could exclusively alter its UV-vis and fluorescent property with clear color change. Under the optimized conditions, a high-performance fluorescent and ratiometric colorimetric detection of Cu2+ based on HNIT was efficient, with low detection limits of 3.3 × 10-8 mol L-1 (S/N = 3) and 9.6 × 10-8 mol L-1 (S/N = 3), respectively. It well satisfied with the safe value of 31.5 μM Cu2+ in drinking water recommended by World Health Organization (WHO). When applied for detection of Cu2+ in real environmental samples, the recovery was in the range of 97.5-105.2%. The recognition mechanism for HNIT to Cu2+ realized quite stable 6-membered rings between electron-deficient Cu2+ and electron-rich N and O atoms in HNIT with 1 : 2 chemical stoichiometry of HNIT to Cu2+.
