Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of electronic devices, electronic information technology, biosensing, etc., and particularly relates to a method for measuring and sensing the type and concentration of a taste substance to be measured by measuring the change of the redox peak current and peak potential of a reversible protonation electronic phase change of a rare earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material in an electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be measured, which is triggered by a voltammetric cycle. BACKGROUND
[0002] Taste is one of the basic senses of human beings. Humans can distinguish food by taste and choose to accept or not to accept according to the feeling. The selectivity of food determines the selectivity of humans to the nutrients in the body, which has a significant impact on the evolution and development of humans. However, in the modern food industry, the way of identifying food flavor by humans is greatly influenced by subjective factors and differences in taste receptors among individuals, resulting in non-objective evaluation results or failure to meet the requirements of the public. Therefore, it is an inevitable trend to quantify the evaluation criteria by non-biological taste sensing means to objectively evaluate the taste quality. 【2】
[0003] Taste is a sensory effect, mainly the reflection of chemical components, including five tastes of sour, sweet, bitter, salty and umami. 【3-6】Taste substances are dissolved in digestive fluids such as saliva in the human mouth, adsorbed on the receptor surface by contacting the taste cells on the top of the microvilli in the taste buds, and different bioelectric stimulation signals are generated. The electrical signals are transmitted to the brain by nerve fibers to produce a taste. It has been confirmed that the five basic tastes will produce different stimuli to the taste receptors, which are received by different parts or different components of the taste receptors and transmitted by different nerve fibers, which is the basis for the specific recognition and differentiation of different taste substances by organisms. 【7-8】Therefore, the bionic taste sensor or electronic tongue is designed based on the easily distinguishable current signals of the receptor material to different taste substances. The stronger the specificity of the material to the electrical signals of different taste substances, the more sensitive the taste detection.
[0004] However, taste detection is difficult, and there are many problems to be studied in order to expand the application field of taste detection and sensing technology and further realize its practicality. Due to the limitations of the size of the sensor array unit, the number of array units that can be integrated within a fixed size is very limited, and the types of taste substances that can be detected are limited, and it is impossible to have a strong response signal for all detection objects. The information obtained by the current taste detection system has certain limitations, especially when it comes to complex taste, it is difficult to comprehensively evaluate the type and concentration of the taste substance to be tested. Current taste sensing technology can be divided into two categories according to the response principle: potentiometric taste sensors and voltammetric taste sensors. The most widely used is the potentiometric sensor. The taste receptor materials mainly include noble metal inert electrodes such as platinum and ruthenium, carbon materials such as oxidized or reduced modified carbon fiber and graphene, and semiconductors such as silicon nitride. The principle of the potentiometric sensor is to load specific oil ester membranes on the surface of the above materials, and then place them in pairs in the standard saturated potassium chloride solution and the test liquid, respectively. The taste substances are distinguished by the change of electrode potential. This testing method relies heavily on specific oil ester membranes, and the characteristics of the material itself do not play a key role, and the discrimination ability is very limited.
[0005] In 2019, the Ramanathan team of Purdue University in the United States realized the control and monitoring of dopamine neurotransmitter production in vivo based on the electronic phase change caused by protonation of rare earth nickel-based oxides. The rare earth nickel-based oxide is a strong correlation electronic oxide with perovskite structure, which can maintain structural stability in acid-base electrolyte, biological environment and marine corrosive environment, and is extremely sensitive to proton concentration changes. The resistance change caused by protonation can be up to 11 orders of magnitude. In addition, due to the richness of rare earth elements, the electronic phase change caused by protonation of rare earth nickel-based oxides can be modulated by replacing the type of rare earth element to adapt to different temperature or proton concentration environments. Therefore, based on the high sensitivity of rare earth nickel-based oxides to protons and the dynamics of the protonation process, it is feasible to prepare a new type of taste sensing array that does not rely on specific oil membranes.
[0006] In summary, the existing taste detection technology mainly relies on specific oil esters loaded on the surface of the electrode to distinguish taste substances, and the discrimination ability is limited. It is urgent to develop materials that have certain discrimination ability for taste substances from a new angle, so as to make the taste detection method more diverse and expand the means of biological sensing cognition.

[0024] The application aims to provide a taste sensor based on rare earth nickel oxide electronic phase change, which realizes the measurement and perception of the type and concentration of the taste substance to be measured by the change of the oxidation-reduction peak current and peak potential of the reversible protonation electronic phase change of the material triggered by the voltammetry cycle of the strong correlation oxide electronic phase change material in the electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be measured.
[0025] A taste sensor material based on rare earth nickel oxide electronic phase change, characterized in that the strong correlation oxide electronic phase change material of rare earth nickel is used as a sensitive material, and the specific oil ester with selective permeability to different taste substances is loaded on the surface of the conductive perfluorosulfonic acid polymer to selectively pass the protons generated by the hydroxyl group, quinolinyl group, sodium ion and amino group in the solution in the five taste environments of acid, sweet, bitter, salty and fresh, so as to realize the discrimination of the taste characteristics in the environment; the electrochemical process is described as follows: the measurement and perception of the type and concentration of the taste substance to be measured are realized by the change of the oxidation-reduction peak current and peak potential of the reversible protonation electronic phase change of the material triggered by the voltammetry cycle in the electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be measured; the strong correlation oxide electronic phase change material of rare earth nickel itself can obtain protons from the solution to be measured or expel protons from the material lattice in the electrolyte solution environment through the voltammetry cycle, trigger the reversible conversion between different electronic phases, and identify the taste substance; the identification ability of certain specific taste substances can be further improved by loading the polymer film with good conductivity and specific oil ester on the surface; the protons in the solution to be measured are derived from the natural hydrolysis of different taste substances in the electrolyte, and the hydrolysis degree of different taste substances is different, so the adsorption on the material surface is also different, which provides different protonation environments for the rare earth nickel oxide material; the strong correlation oxide electronic phase change material of rare earth nickel is a detection sensitive material, mainly a metastable phase rare earth nickel oxide ReNiO3.
[0026] Further, the strong correlation oxide electronic phase change material of rare earth nickel is in a thermodynamic metastable phase state and has the electronic phase change characteristics under the triggering of multiple fields, has different protonation kinetic processes for different taste substances, corresponds to different voltammetry characteristics, i.e. different oxidation-reduction peak current and peak potential, and can measure and perceive the type and concentration of different taste substances. In addition, due to the richness of rare earth elements, the electronic phase change caused by the protonation of the rare earth nickel oxide and the kinetic process of the protonation can be modulated by replacing the types of rare earth elements to adapt to different temperature or proton concentration taste sensing application environments. At room temperature and below, the rare earth nickel oxide La x Nd 1-x NiO3(0≤x≤1), Lax Pr 1-x NiO3(0≤x≤1), Pr x Nd 1-x NiO3(0≤x≤1), B-site Co, Cu, Zn, Fe doped rare earth nickel-based oxide NdFe x Ni 1-x O3(0≤x≤0.2), NdCo x Ni 1-x O3(0≤x≤0.2), NdZn x Ni 1-x O3(0≤x≤0.3), NdCu x Ni 1-x O3(0≤x≤0.1), hole doped rare earth nickel-based oxide LaSr x Ni 1-x O3(0≤x≤0.5). At room temperature and above, rare earth nickel-based oxide A with optional A-site Sm, Nd, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho mixed doping A x A 1-x ’NiO3(A=Sm, Nd; A’=Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho; 0≤x≤1).
[0027] Further, in addition to directly using the above-mentioned rare earth nickel-based strong correlation oxide, the specificity of the oil ester can be further improved by loading the specificity of the oil ester on the surface of the oxide to further improve the discrimination of different taste substances, mainly including unsaturated fatty amides, alkyl ammonium halides, alkenoic acids, alcohol substances, preferably oleamide, dimethylacetamide, erucamide, dihydroxyethyl fatty acid amide, methyltrioctylammonium chloride, methyltrioctylammonium bromide, methyltrioctylammonium iodide, octadecenoic acid, hexadecenoic acid, tetradecenoic acid, dodecenoic acid, undecenoic acid, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol, heptanol, octanol, nonanol, decanol. The above-mentioned specific oil and perfluoro sulfonic acid type conductive polymer solution are mixed sufficiently according to actual needs, then dropped on the surface of the rare earth nickel-based oxide material, and naturally air dried for 24 hours to form a specific oil film.
[0028] Further, as described above, the application of the taste sensor material based on the electronic phase transition of the rare earth nickel-based oxide is characterized in that the rare earth nickel-based strong correlation oxide electronic phase transition material has different protonation kinetic processes for different taste substances, corresponding to different voltammetry cycle characteristics, i.e., different oxidation-reduction peak currents and peak potentials, and can measure and perceive the types and concentrations of different taste substances.
[0029] The specific detection method is as follows: 1) Calibrate the voltammetric cycle characteristics of the prepared and used rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material in potassium chloride solution; 2) Place the prepared and used rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material into an electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be tested, and wait for a period of time; 3) Measure the voltammetric cycle characteristics of the rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material placed in an electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be tested; 4) Compare the voltammetric cycle characteristics placed in electrolyte solutions containing different taste substances to be tested. Since rare-earth nickel-based oxide materials have different protonation kinetic processes in different test solutions, the redox peak currents and peak potentials generated by their voltammetric cycles are completely different. The type and concentration of the taste substance can be directly determined by the shape of the voltammetric cycle curve and the magnitude of the current. In a preferred embodiment, an NdNiO3 thin film is used as the working electrode, an Ag / AgCl electrode is used as the reference electrode, and a Pt sheet is used as the counter electrode. Voltammetric cycles are performed in 0.001 mol / L glucose and sodium chloride solutions, respectively, to obtain the following results: Figure 1 The voltammetric cycle curves shown can distinguish between sweet and salty tastes simply by observing the curve shape. In another preferred embodiment, the above three-electrode system is subjected to voltammetric cycles in sodium chloride solutions of different concentrations to obtain the following results: Figure 3 The voltammetric cycle curves shown can differentiate salinity by the size of the curve shape. Besides directly comparing the characteristics of the voltammetric cycle curves, the detection power can be obtained by multiplying the redox peak current and peak potential. Different taste substances correspond to different detection powers, thus presenting a specific polygon in the radar image, and the size of the polygon represents the concentration of the analyte. In a preferred embodiment, a taste detection array was prepared using an NdNiO3 film loaded with oleamide, methyltrioctylammonium chloride, octadecenoic acid, and decanol, and an NdNiO3 film without any specific oleic esters. Using the array as the working electrode, an Ag / AgCl electrode as the reference electrode, and a Pt sheet as the counter electrode, voltammetric cycles were performed in 0.001 mol / L sodium chloride solution and glucose solution, respectively, and the results were analyzed as follows: Figure 2 The taste radar map shown distinguishes between sweet and salty tastes through its polygonal shape; the shape of the radar map directly differentiates salty and sweet substances. In another preferred embodiment, the above-mentioned taste detection array is subjected to voltammetric cycling in sodium chloride solutions of different concentrations, and the results are analyzed as follows: Figure 4 The taste radar chart shown distinguishes saltiness by the size of the polygons. Therefore, based on the different protonation kinetics of the rare earth nickel-based oxides in different test solutions, the highly distinguishable voltammetric cycle curves and radar charts can differentiate between five taste substances: acidity, sweetness, saltiness, bitterness, and umami, thereby obtaining the relevant characteristics of the taste substances.
[0030] Furthermore, the rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material exhibits excellent electrochemical activity, reversibility, and sensitivity to the types of taste substances. Its excellent electrochemical activity is demonstrated by the smooth and continuous voltammetric cycle curve with clearly paired redox peaks when the material is placed in an electrolyte solution containing taste substances. The material's reversibility is reflected in the long-term stability of its voltammetric cycle curve with increasing cycle count, with the redox peak current and potential not decreasing with increasing cycle count, and the material itself not decaying. The material's sensitivity to the types of taste substances is evident in its ability to distinguish different taste substances without loading specific oil esters, a significant characteristic that differentiates it from other taste-sensing electrode materials.
[0031] This invention utilizes rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase transition materials (REEs) to measure and sense the type and concentration of taste substances by inducing a reversible protonation electronic phase transition in an electrolyte solution containing the target taste substance through voltammetric cycling. The resulting redox peak current and peak potential vary with the taste substance. This offers the following advantages: 1. Compared to carbon-based electrodes, perovskite-structured rare-earth nickel-based thin film materials exhibit more stable crystal structures and surface stability under electrochemical conditions, making them less prone to crystal deconstruction and breakage under current. They also offer lower cost and easier fabrication compared to noble metal electrodes. 2. The principle of this invention is based on the electronic phase transition induced by the reversible protonation of rare-earth nickel-based thin film materials. Therefore, by adjusting the stoichiometric ratio of rare-earth elements at the A-site and transition metal elements at the B-site, the electronic structure of the material can be controlled, ensuring that the sensing electrode maintains high sensitivity to the functional groups of the target taste substance across a wide temperature range from liquid nitrogen temperature to 100 degrees Celsius. 3. The rare earth nickel-based thin film material of the present invention can flexibly adjust the specific oil esters loaded on the surface to further improve the ability to recognize certain specific taste substances. Attached Figure Description
[0032] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the principle of a taste sensor based on rare-earth nickel-based oxides. In the test solution, positive and negative bias voltages are applied to the rare-earth nickel-based oxide material to perform voltammetric cycling, causing protons to reversibly intercalate and deintercalate within the material's crystal lattice. The oxidation peak current and potential characteristics in the measured voltammetric cycling curve are correlated one-to-one with the concentration and type of the taste substance being tested, ultimately enabling the detection and measurement of the intensity of five human tastes: sour, sweet, bitter, salty, and umami.
[0033] Figure 2The figures show the voltammetric cycling curves of the NdNiO3 thin film without any specific oil ester loading in sodium chloride solution and glucose solution, respectively. It can be seen that the prepared NdNiO3 thin film can clearly distinguish between salty substances (sodium chloride) and sweet substances (glucose), as their voltammetric cycling curves are completely different.

[0035] Figure 4 The figures show the voltammetric cycling curves of NdNiO3 films without any specific oil ester loading in sodium chloride solutions of different concentrations. It can be seen that the NdNiO3 films without any specific oil ester loading are highly sensitive to changes in the concentration of the salty substance (sodium chloride), and their voltammetric cycling curves are completely different under different concentrations of solution.

[0037] Figure 6 The figures show the voltammetric cycling curves of NdNiO3 films without any specific oil ester loading in glucose solutions of different concentrations. It can be seen that the NdNiO3 films without any specific oil ester loading are highly sensitive to changes in the concentration of the sweetener (glucose), and their voltammetric cycling curves are completely different under different concentrations of solution.
[0038] Figure 7 The taste detection array was subjected to 10 voltammetric cycles in glucose solutions of different concentrations at a scan rate of 0.01 V / s within a voltage range of -0.7 V to 0 V. The resulting taste radar images showed significant differences, and the size and shape of the radar images directly indicated the glucose concentration. Detailed Implementation

Claims
1. A taste sensor material based on the electronic phase transition of rare-earth nickel-based oxides, characterized in that, Using rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase transition materials as sensitive materials, and with the assistance of conductive perfluorosulfonic acid polymers, unsaturated fatty amides, alkyl ammonium halides, olefinic acids, alcohols, oleamide, dimethylacetamide, erucamide, dihydroxyethyl fatty acid amide, methyltrioctylammonium chloride, methyltrioctylammonium bromide, methyltrioctylammonium iodide, octadecenoic acid, hexadecenoic acid, tetradecenoic acid, dodecenoic acid, undecenoic acid, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol, heptanol, octanol, nonanol, or decanol are loaded on their surface to selectively allow the passage of protons generated in solution by five functional groups (hydrogen ions, hydroxyl groups, quinolinyl groups, sodium ions, and amino groups) in the five taste environments of acid, sweet, bitter, salty, and umami, thereby achieving the identification of taste characteristics in the environment; The electrochemical process is described as follows: The redox peak current and peak potential, generated by the reversible protonation electronic phase transition of the material triggered by a voltammetric cycle in an electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be tested, change with the taste substance, thereby enabling the measurement and perception of the type and concentration of the taste substance. The rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase transition material itself gains protons from the test solution or releases protons from the material lattice through a voltammetric cycle in the electrolyte solution environment, triggering a reversible transition between different electronic phases to identify the taste substance. Furthermore, it utilizes a surface-loaded polymer film with good conductivity, as well as unsaturated fatty amides, alkyl ammonium halides, acrylic acids, alcohols, and oleamides. Dimethylacetamide, erucamide, dihydroxyethyl fatty acid amide, methyltrioctylammonium chloride, methyltrioctylammonium bromide, methyltrioctylammonium iodide, octadecenoic acid, hexadecenoic acid, tetradecenoic acid, dodecenoic acid, undecenoic acid, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol, heptanol, octanol, nonanol, or decanol further enhance the ability to identify specific taste substances; the protons in the test solution originate from the natural hydrolysis of different taste substances in the electrolyte. Different taste substances have different degrees of hydrolysis and different adsorption properties on the material surface, providing different protonation environments for rare earth nickel-based oxide materials; the rare earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase transition material is a detection-sensitive material; The aforementioned rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase transition material is in a thermodynamically metastable phase and exhibits electronic phase transition characteristics under multi-field triggering. It exhibits different protonation kinetics for different taste substances, corresponding to different voltammetric cycle characteristics, i.e., different redox peak currents and peak potentials, enabling the measurement and sensing of different types and concentrations of taste substances. Furthermore, due to the abundance of rare-earth elements, the electronic phase transition and protonation kinetics caused by the protonation of rare-earth nickel-based oxides can be modulated by replacing the rare-earth element types to suit taste sensing applications at different temperatures or proton concentrations.

2. The application of the taste sensor material based on the electronic phase transition of rare-earth nickel-based oxides as described in claim 1, characterized in that, The aforementioned rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase transition material exhibits different protonation kinetics for different taste substances, corresponding to different voltammetric cycle characteristics, i.e., different redox peak currents and peak potentials. It can measure and sense different types and concentrations of taste substances. The specific detection method is as follows: 1) The voltammetric cycle characteristics of the rare-earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material prepared and used were calibrated in potassium chloride solution; 2) Place the prepared and used rare earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change material into an electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be tested, and wait for a period of time; 3) Measure the voltammetric cycle characteristics of rare earth nickel-based strongly correlated oxide electronic phase change materials placed in an electrolyte solution containing the taste substance to be tested; 4) Compare the voltammetric cycle characteristics of electrolyte solutions containing different taste substances to be tested; since rare earth nickel-based oxide materials have different protonation kinetic processes in different test solutions, the redox peak current and peak potential generated by their voltammetric cycle are completely different. The type and concentration of taste substances can be directly determined by the shape of the voltammetric cycle curve and the magnitude of the current.
