Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for detecting glyphosate based on ratiometric fluorescent test strips, belonging to the field of analytical detection technology. Background Technology
[0002] Glyphosate, an organophosphorus herbicide developed by Monsanto in the 1980s, is widely used in agriculture for weed control due to its excellent systemic conductivity within plants. Since the early 1990s, glyphosate usage has increased by over 500%, with the annual application area equivalent to 30%–40% of total arable land. Although some glyphosate in the environment degrades through biological or photochemical pathways, some glyphosate and its metabolites remain, accumulating in the food chain. Despite ongoing debate regarding the toxicity of glyphosate, growing public concern about environmental and food safety has created a demand for glyphosate residue analysis. Furthermore, given the short shelf life of agricultural products, the analytical procedures for on-site detection of glyphosate in food must be time-efficient, and the analytical devices must be readily available and portable, while simultaneously ensuring reliable analytical accuracy in complex environments.
[0003] Ratio sensors are analytical tools that reduce errors from the environment and equipment by using built-in self-calibrating references. In recent years, they have been increasingly developed for the rapid detection of targets in complex and variable environments. Based on different output signal modes, ratio sensors can be divided into four main categories: temperature sensors, electrochemical sensors, colorimetric sensors, and fluorescence sensors. Among them, fluorescence-based analytical methods have advantages such as short turnaround time and simple preprocessing, and they exhibit higher sensitivity in visual inspection compared to colorimetric sensors. These sensors demonstrate stable analytical performance in complex environments through ratio detection strategies, but they still require specialized instruments for signal output. Developing portable analytical devices based on ratiometric fluorescence sensing strategies is beneficial for achieving more accurate and convenient on-site detection of analytes.
[0004] In recent years, paper-based analytical devices (PADs) have been widely used for on-site environmental and food safety testing due to their advantages such as visualization capabilities (not requiring specialized fluorescence spectrometers) and ease of acquisition, manufacturing, and portability. However, PADs typically rely on imaging to acquire signals, and their dependence on angle and light can easily introduce errors, thus reducing the accuracy of their analysis and introducing uncertainties in practical applications. Therefore, applying ratiometric sensing strategies to PADs has great potential for on-site detection and analysis. Traditional ratiometric fluorescence sensors achieve ratiometric sensing strategies by synthesizing dual-emission probe materials. This requires that the peak positions of the dual-emission probes do not interfere with each other, increasing the design difficulty during material synthesis. Furthermore, since the naked eye cannot accurately distinguish the fluorescence signals of the target and the reference, such PADs based on dual-emission probe materials cannot be used for rapid visual inspection. How to achieve regional signal output for the target and the reference is particularly important for constructing PADs that combine rapid visual inspection and high-precision ratio analysis capabilities. Summary of the Invention

[0065] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0066] Example 1: NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Fluorescent sensor detects glyphosate
[0067] NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ The process of detecting glyphosate with a fluorescence sensor is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in Figure A. First, a uniformly dispersed NH₂-Bi-MOF solution (0.25 g / L) was prepared using ultrapure water (pH 6.0). -1 (The preparation method of NH2-Bi-MOF is not limited in this invention), and the mixture is ultrasonically treated for 20 minutes. Then, Cu is added. 2+ (90 μmol L) -1 The fluorescence-quenched sensor solution was obtained. Then, glyphosate standard solution (0–200 μmol / L) was added. -1 After 1 minute, the fluorescence spectrum was recorded, with the excitation wavelength set to 365 nm. A quantitative model was constructed by linearly correlating the concentration of glyphosate with the ratio of the corresponding response fluorescence intensity to that of the blank group (I / I0).
[0068] NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Fluorescence properties and sensing mechanism:
[0069] To investigate the mechanism of the fluorescence response of NH2-Bi-MOF to glyphosate, the fluorescence response of NH2-Bi-MOF in the presence of Cu was first examined. 2 + Fluorescence spectra under glyphosate conditions. For example... Figure 2 As shown, NH2-Bi-MOF exhibits a characteristic fluorescence peak at 441 nm. The addition of Cu... 2+ Afterward, the fluorescence signal was quenched by approximately 64%. Subsequently, the addition of glyphosate resulted in a 23 nm redshift in the emission spectrum of NH2-Bi-MOF, and a 576% enhancement in the fluorescence signal. In digital photographs taken under ultraviolet light, the previously almost non-fluorescent NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu... 2+ system( Figure 2 Illustration b) begins to emit a strong blue fluorescence in the presence of glyphosate. Figure 2 Illustration c) demonstrates the feasibility of its visual detection.
[0070] Further investigation of the mechanism using FT-IR, such as Figure 3 As shown. The FT-IR spectra of NH2-Bi-MOF are at 1361 and 830 cm⁻¹. -1 Characteristic peaks appear nearby, at 3438 and 3346 cm⁻¹. -1 There are slight splitting peaks nearby, pointing to the deformation and stretching vibrations of NH, respectively, while at 503 cm⁻¹... -1 The peaks at these points point to the metal-oxygen bond Bi-O, indicating the successful synthesis of NH2-Bi-MOF.

To further investigate Cu... 2+ The binding properties with NH2-Bi-MOF and glyphosate, and the effect of NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ The Cu 2p XPS narrow spectrum before and after the addition of glyphosate was studied, as follows: Figure 4 As shown. NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Peaks were observed at 932.5 and 952.2 eV, respectively, consistent with Cu 2p. 3 / 2 and Cu 2p 1 / 2 The binding energy of Cu. The addition of glyphosate increased the corresponding binding energy by 0.8 eV, indicating that Cu... 2+ The binding with glyphosate is more stable, further proving the role of Cu. 2+ The mediated "on-off-on" response strategy is reliable.
[0071] Cu2+ Concentration selection:
[0072] This invention selects Cu 2+ As a quencher, Cu 2+ The quencher can undergo a Lewis acid-base reaction with the amino groups on the surface of NH2-Bi-MOF, thereby quenching the latter's fluorescence signal. The amount of quencher added directly affects the sensitivity and linear range of this method. This example investigates the effect of Cu... 2+ The trend of changes in the amount of NH2-Bi-MOF added and the fluorescence intensity before and after addition ( Figure 5 ).
[0073] As can be seen from the figure, with Cu 2+ With increasing addition, the fluorescence intensity of NH2-Bi-MOF gradually decreased, and the fluorescence intensity ratio I / I0 before and after addition also showed a decreasing trend. When Cu... 2+ The amount added was 90 μmol L. -1 The fluorescence quenching effect is optimal at this time. Therefore, in subsequent embodiments, Cu is preferentially selected. 2+ The amount added was 90 μmol L. -1 .
[0074] NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Quantitative model for glyphosate detection:
[0075] To evaluate the established NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ A fluorescent sensor method for detecting glyphosate, using NH2-Bi-MOF (2.5 × 10⁻⁶) at pH 6. -2 g L -1 ) and Cu 2+ (90 μmol L) -1 Aqueous solution. Subsequently, in NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Different concentrations of glyphosate standard solutions (0–200 μmol / L) were added to the system. -1 ), scan fluorescence spectrum.
[0076] The results are as follows Figure 6 As shown, after the addition of glyphosate, the fluorescence ratio of I / I0 was related to the glyphosate concentration in the range of 0.1–30 μmol / L. -1 (R 2 =0.9922) and 30~200μmol L -1 (R 2 It exhibits good linearity in the two ranges (=0.9917), and also shows good linearity in the concentration range of 0.1–30 μmol L. -1At this time, it exhibits higher precision (I / I0 = 0.0971c + 1.0795). In this method, the LOD value of glyphosate is 0.05 μmol L⁻¹. -1 .
[0077] NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Selectivity and anti-interference performance:
[0078] With metal ions (Pb) 2+ Cd 2+ Na + K + Ba 2+ 900 μmol L -1 ) and organophosphorus pesticides (parathion, parathion methyl, promethazine, phosphazene, phosphate, 30 μmol L -1 Further investigation was conducted on NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu as a disruptor. 2+ glyphosate (30 μmol L) -1 The selectivity of ) results as follows Figure 7 As shown in the photos taken under UV light, only the group with added glyphosate exhibited strong blue fluorescence. Correspondingly, only the group with added glyphosate showed a 329% increase in the fluorescence intensity ratio (I / I0) before and after adding glyphosate, while the signal changes in other groups were minimal.
[0079] Further investigation is needed into the system's anti-interference performance, such as... Figure 8 As shown. Pre-treated in NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ The aforementioned interfering agents were loaded, followed by the addition of glyphosate, and the corresponding fluorescence spectra were recorded. All experimental groups showed the same fluorescence characteristics as the blank group (NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu). 2+ The enhanced fluorescence signal, similar to that of the system, indicates that the system has good anti-interference performance.
[0080] Example 2: NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ Application in the detection of glyphosate using ratiometric fluorescent test strips
[0081] The process of detecting glyphosate using ratiometric fluorescent test strips is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in B. First, cut the glass fiber membrane to obtain square test paper strips with a side length of 10 mm. Select adhesive roll paper with a fluorescent signal; its fluorescence spectrum is as follows. Figure 9 As shown. A fluorescent hydrophobic ring-shaped sticker with an inner diameter of 6 mm and an outer diameter of 10 mm was obtained using a punch. This sticker was then adhered to the surface of a glass fiber film test strip as a reference. The test strip structure is as follows. Figure 1 As shown in C, the fluorescent ring sticker is the ring reference area, and the central circular area formed is the central sample area.
[0082] Then, 2 μL of NH2-Bi-MOF / Cu 2+ (NH2-Bi-MOF: 0.25g L) -1 Cu 2+ 90 μmol L -1 A drop was added to the central sample area, and after drying, a ratiometric fluorescent test paper was obtained. Then, 2 μL of glyphosate (0–200 μmol / L) was added. -1 The sample area exhibits enhanced blue fluorescence, which can be used for semi-quantitative detection by visual visualization. A digital photograph is taken under 365nm UV light after 1 minute, and grayscale analysis is performed using ImageJ. The grayscale ratio of the sample area and the reference area is calculated as the signal output. A quantitative model is constructed by linearly correlating the glyphosate concentration with the grayscale ratio (G / G0) of the sample and reference areas for quantitative detection.
[0083] Comparative Example 1
[0084] The difference from Example 2 is that the ratiometric fluorescent test strip is replaced with a traditional fluorescent test strip (i.e., only the gray value of the sample area is read as the signal output). Parallel experiments were conducted to verify whether the ratiometric fluorescent test strip in this invention can reduce the analytical errors caused by imaging angle and lighting conditions.
[0085] like Figure 10 As shown in Figure A, traditional fluorescent test strips only output the grayscale value of the sample area as a signal. This results in signals for each concentration spanning a large range, easily causing confusion with results from adjacent concentrations. Therefore, the accuracy of traditional fluorescent test strips may be questionable in practical applications. However, when using the ratiometric fluorescent test strip of this invention, as... Figure 10 As shown in Figure B, the results of the six concentration gradients are more concentrated than those of traditional fluorescent test strips, indicating its promising application prospects in the on-site detection of glyphosate residues.
[0086] Example 3: Optimization of Detection Conditions
[0087] (1) Selection of paper base material:
[0088] The material of the paper base can affect the fluorescence imaging effect of the test strip, thus affecting the test results. In order to select a suitable paper base material, glass fiber membrane, Whatman No.1 paper filter, and cellulose acetate membrane were compared.
[0089] The effects of glyphosate (100 μmol L) on glyphosate (100 μmol L) were investigated. -1 Fluorescence phenomena on test papers with different paper base materials before and after addition, such as Figure 11As shown in the figure, all three groups of paper-based materials exhibit fluorescent spots with strong signals, indicating that all three paper-based materials are applicable. Furthermore, it can be seen that the glass fiber membrane (group a) exhibits uniform fluorescent spots with strong signals, while in groups b and c, the radial flow of liquid on the paper surface carries solute particles to the edge of the droplets, resulting in a "coffee ring" phenomenon, which affects the uniformity of the fluorescent spots. Therefore, in subsequent embodiments, glass fiber membranes are preferentially selected as the paper-based material for constructing ratiometric fluorescent test strips.
[0090] (2) Selection of NH2-Bi-MOF concentration:
[0091] The concentration of the fluorescent probe affects the efficiency of its interaction with the target analyte, thus affecting the sensitivity of the test strip. Therefore, the effect of NH2-Bi-MOF concentration on the addition of glyphosate (5 μmol L) was investigated. -1 The effect of Cu on the fluorescence properties of the test strips before and after the test. 2+ The concentration was set to 90 μmol L. -1 .
[0092] Based on visual observation ( Figure 12 A) Differences in fluorescence intensity were observed before and after the addition of glyphosate, especially with a difference of 0.25 g / L. -1 This is most evident in the NH2-Bi-MOF group. The original digital image was converted to a grayscale image, and the ratio of grayscale values (G / G0) between the sample area and the reference area was calculated. For example... Figure 12 As shown in B, in the range of 0.025-0.5g L - 1 In the NH2-Bi-MOF group, the changes before and after glyphosate addition were evident. Furthermore, it can be seen that with increasing NH2-Bi-MOF concentration, the G / G0 ratio gradually increased before and after glyphosate addition, while the difference in G / G0 before and after addition (ΔG / G0) was within 0.25 g / L. - 1 The concentration reached a maximum of 0.041 at NH2-Bi-MOF, and then decreased, a result consistent with visual observation. Therefore, 0.25 g L was selected. -1 NH2-Bi-MOF was used in subsequent experiments.
[0093] (3) Response time selection:
[0094] Under optimized paper-based material and NH2-Bi-MOF concentration conditions, the effects of adding 100 μmol L⁻¹ were investigated. -1 The change of G / G0 over time within 5 minutes after glyphosate administration, including Cu 2+ The concentration was set to 90 μmol L. -1 .
[0095] like Figure 13 As shown in Figure A, changes in the results were visible within 0-5 minutes after the addition of glyphosate, especially the gradual uniform distribution of fluorescent spots within 1 minute, after which the fluorescence intensity gradually decreased over time. Figure 13 As shown in Figure B, based on the read grayscale values, compared to the blank group, G / G0 increased to 0.60 within 1 minute, representing a signal enhancement of nearly 40%, before decreasing thereafter. This decreasing trend in fluorescence intensity is attributed to the evaporation of liquid on the test strip surface affecting the electronic transition capabilities of the MOF material, thus reducing its fluorescence properties. Therefore, the G / G0 value 1 minute after adding the glyphosate sample was selected as the signal output for accurate analysis in subsequent experiments.

[0098] Glyphosate standards of different concentrations (1.0, 5.0, 10, 50, 100, and 200 μmol / L) were prepared. -1 The sample was processed using the glyphosate ratiometric fluorescent test strip detection method described in Example 2 and the optimized detection conditions described in Example 3. Figure 14 As shown, the fluorescence intensity in the sample area gradually increases with increasing glyphosate concentration. Based on this, a standard colorimetric card was developed for the semi-quantitative detection of glyphosate using visual visualization. The standard colorimetric card is set with five concentration reference values, where Nd represents undetectable (below 1 μmol / L). -1 ), Tr represents trace amounts (1-5 μmol L). -1 Lo is a small amount (5-10 μmol L). -1 Md is moderate (10-100 μmol L). -1 Hi is a large amount (more than 100 μmol L). -1 ).
[0099] (2) Constructing a ratio-based quantitative detection standard curve:
[0100] Since the fluorescence signal in the reference region remained stable, the grayscale ratio (G / G0) of the sample region to the reference region also increased with increasing glyphosate concentration. The test strip after glyphosate addition for 1 minute was photographed under a 365nm UV lamp, and grayscale analysis was performed using ImageJ. G / G0 was used as the analytical signal for glyphosate and correlated with the concentration of the glyphosate standard. The relationship between G / G0 and glyphosate concentration conformed to a logistic function model, and the coefficient of determination (R²) was [value missing]. 2 The value is 0.9984, such as Figure 15As shown, this test strip can be used for the quantitative detection of glyphosate. Using this test strip, the detection limit for glyphosate is 0.82 μmol / L. -1 .
[0101] Example 5: Method Adaptability: Detection of Glyphosate in Soybeans, Wheat, and Drinking Water
[0102] Glyphosate in soybeans, wheat, and drinking water was detected using the fluorescence sensor detection method in Example 1 and the ratiometric fluorescence test strip detection method in Example 2, respectively, with 5 μmol / L added to each sample. -1 and 10 μmol L -1 The recovery rate of glyphosate standard solution was calculated, and each sample was measured 5 times.
[0103] The test results are shown in Table 1. According to the results of the ratiometric fluorescent test strip, soybeans contain 4.40 μmol L⁻¹. -1 Glyphosate was detected in the other two samples, but no residual glyphosate was found. Similarly, according to the fluorescence sensor detection results, soybeans contained 4.81 μmol L⁻¹. -1 Glyphosate was detected in the other two samples, but no residual glyphosate was found in the other two samples.
[0104] Furthermore, for spiked samples, the calculated recoveries ranged from 97.6% to 109.9%, and these results were consistent with those obtained using solution sensors and LC-MS methods. This method is low-cost, simple to operate, and rapid, requiring no large instruments, and exhibits high accuracy and stability, making it a promising candidate for field monitoring of glyphosate. See Table 1 for details.
