Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water body detection, and specifically relates to a visual quantitative detection device, a preparation method and a detection method for Hg 2+ visual quantitative detection device, preparation method and detection method. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous expansion of industry, the amount of mercury released into the environment is increasing continuously. Mercury(II) (Hg 2+ ) can be converted into highly toxic methylmercury by microorganisms. Therefore, Hg 2+ will have an adverse impact on plants and animals, and thus have an adverse impact on human health. It is crucial to detect trace amounts of Hg 2+ using highly sensitive and selective methods. In recent years, methods developed for detecting Hg 2+ include X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, electrochemistry, fluorescence spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, etc. However, due to expensive equipment and complex operating procedures, their application in on-site detection is limited. To overcome these deficiencies, it is particularly important to develop a reliable and reasonably priced detection device.

[0003] Although existing commercial colorimetric assay kits can achieve naked-eye detection, most of them are only used for qualitative detection of disease biomarkers and cannot perform precise quantitative detection, and their response colors to the target are single. For example, the widely used horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-3,3,5,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) immunoassay system only responds to the intensity change of a single color (yellow) at the target concentration. Experts estimate that the human eye can distinguish 10 million different colors. Therefore, in the case of presenting variable colors, the accuracy of visual detection of different amounts of target molecules can be greatly improved. Polyaniline (PANI) shows several different colors in different valence states. From the reduced state to the fully oxidized state, it is named leucoemeraldine (LM, light yellow), protoemeraldine (PM, green), emeraldine (EM, dark green), nigraniline (NA, blue), pernigraniline (PNA, violet) according to the degree of its oxidation.

[0004] Under light illumination, polyaniline can be oxidized by the holes generated by semiconductors such as ZnO and TiO2, resulting in color change. Another electrochromic material, Prussian blue (PB), undergoes a color transformation to form Prussian white (PW) when it gains electrons. Studies have shown that when a PANI film is electrochemically deposited onto a PB film, it is more conducive to the ability to undergo electrochromic and redox reactions. To develop a multicolor visual detection and analysis platform, we are based on Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs optoelectronic materials, and utilize their photoelectric effect to cause the Prussian blue / polyaniline composite material to undergo a color transformation from emerald green - blue - purple - black to visually detect the target Hg 2+ . Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above, the present invention provides a device, preparation method, and detection method for visual quantitative detection of Hg 2+ , which can be based on naked-eye visual detection, without the use of any analytical equipment, and can be recognized and detected only by the human eye, having the advantages of accuracy, reliability, visualization of detection results, and low detection cost.

Then immerse it in a solution of 0.1 M Na 2 S with ethanol / water ratio of 1:3 for 2 - 5 min, and then rinse with ethanol. These two steps are one synthesis of Ag 2The cycle of S, while Ag 2 The adsorption amount of S will increase with the number of cycles. Repeat this cycle process 1 to 5 times. Finally, dry the prepared Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO composite electrode.

When immobilizing SH-DNA, immerse the prepared Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO composite electrode into 5 mL of 2.5 μM SH-DNA solution, incubate overnight at 4 - 8 °C, and block the unbound SH-DNA with 5 mL of 2 mM MCH (6-mercapto-1-hexanol).

[0020] Furthermore, the preparation of the optoelectrode MCH / SH-DNA / Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO includes the following steps:

[0021] IV. Preparation of SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA

[0022] Take 15 mL of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and put it into a beaker containing 40 mL of ethanol, 50 mL of water, and 30 mL of 28% ammonia water, stir for 6 h. Disperse the centrifuged sample into 100 mL of water, then add 4 mL of fresh 100 mg·mL -1 NaOH solution and stir. After stirring, centrifuge, wash with water, and vacuum dry at 60 °C to obtain porous SiO 2 nanospheres. Mix the dried porous SiO 2 nanospheres with 30 μL of N-(aminoethyl)-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (TSD) and 25 mL of ethanol, stir at 40 °C, and after centrifugation and washing with water, the aminated porous SiO 2The nanospheres were dried in vacuo at 60 °C, and then 15 mg of the aminated porous SiO 2 nanospheres were dispersed into 50 mL of 100 mM silver nitrate solution.

[0027] Thirdly, the present invention provides a Hg 2+ visual quantitative detection method, which uses the above-mentioned Hg 2+ visual quantitative detection device for detection, including the following steps:

[0028] S1: The optical electrode MCH / SH-DNA / Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO was incubated in 5 μL of a standard solution containing 10 -3 -10 -13 mol / L of Hg 2+ and SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA for 30 min, and the unbonded SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA was rinsed with ultrapure water to obtain a sensing electrode, SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA / Hg 2+ / MCH / SH-DNA / Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO;

[0029] S2: One end of the sensing electrode and the indicator electrode were respectively pasted with conductive adhesive, and the two conductive clips were connected with wires. The two conductive clips were inserted into a movable insulating bracket with double holes, and then clamped on the sensing electrode and the indicator electrode pasted with conductive adhesive respectively to form an arch bridge;

[0030] S3: After connecting the sensing electrode and the indicator electrode, they were placed in a colorimetric cell containing an electrolyte solution of 1% w / w KCl, 0.1M PBS buffer, and pH = 7.0, and placed in a dark box to ensure that the orientations of the sensing electrode and the indicator electrode and the heights of immersion in the electrolyte liquid surface were the same;

[0031] S4: In the dark box, the front of the sensing electrode incubated with Hg 2+ was irradiated directly with a light source with a visible wavelength of 680 - 730 nm. After 15 - 20 min of illumination, the color of the indicator electrode changed, and the color change of the indicator was observed with the naked eye to achieve visual detection of different Hg 2+ concentrations;

[0032] S5: Under the condition of ensuring unified shooting conditions, take a photo of the indicator electrode after illumination in step S4, and use Photoshop software to read the average value G of the green channel color intensity displayed in the electronic photo of the indicator electrode. avg , by the standard Hg 2+ concentration change, draw a standard curve, and use the Hg 2+ solution to replace the Hg 2+ standard solution in step S1, and perform detection according to the Hg 2+ detection method described in S1, S2, S3, and S4. According to the obtained G avg and the drawn working curve, obtain the concentration of the Hg 2+ to be measured.

[0033] Advantages of the present invention:

[0034] Compared with the prior art, the Hg 2+ visual quantitative detection device provided by the present invention is configured by cooperating a colorimetric cell, a sensing electrode, an indicator electrode, a wire, and a light source. By irradiating the sensing electrode with a light source, the indicator electrode loaded with an electrochromic material changes color, and the color states corresponding to different Hg 2+ concentrations can be clearly observed with the naked eye. Without using any analytical equipment, it can be detected only by the human eye, and it is easy to realize the visual detection of different Hg 2+ concentrations, having the advantages of accuracy and reliability, visualization of detection results, and low detection cost.

[0035] Visual detection of Hg 2 based on the photoelectric effect driven by Ag 2+ S@ZnO NTs sensing mechanism: Under visible light irradiation, both zinc oxide nanotubes (ZnO NTs) and silver sulfide (Ag 2 S) generate photoexcited electrons and hole pairs. Due to the lower conduction band (CB) of ZnO NTs, the photoexcited electrons from Ag 2 S will spontaneously transfer to ZnO NTs, and then be transmitted to the Prussian blue / polyaniline / ITO (PANI / PB / ITO) electrode through an external circuit, causing the Prussian blue (PB) therein to obtain electrons and transform into Prussian white (PW). At the same time, due to the higher valence band (VB) of Ag 2 S, the holes generated by ZnO NTs will migrate to Ag 2 S and oxidize PANI on the PANI / PB / ITO electrode placed in the electrolyte solution, causing it to undergo an oxidation reaction. In this process, PANI / PB will undergo a color change of different degrees of EM-PANI / PB (dark green) - PNA-PANI / PW (black). Based on this, in order to achieve quantitative visual detection of Hg 2+, immobilize SH-DNA on Ag 2 onto the photoactive matrix of S@ZnO NTs, and the Ag 2 S photoactive substrate can specifically bind Hg through the thymine (T) base in SH-DNA 2+ to form T-Hg 2+ pair. The T-Hg 2+ pair can bind the SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA added during the incubation process. Due to the introduction of SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA, the space resistance is increased, resulting in the hindrance of the transfer of photo-generated carriers in ZnO and Ag 2 S, causing the above-mentioned change in the degree of color change of PANI / PB, and the color states corresponding to different Hg 2+ concentrations can be clearly observed with the naked eye. By reading the G avg value using Photoshop software, taking G avg as the dependent variable and Hg 2+ concentration as the independent variable, a standard curve is plotted to achieve the visual quantitative detection of Hg 2+ .

Subsequently, freshly prepare an electroplating solution containing 0.1 M HCl, 2.5 mM K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 , 0.1 M KCl, and 2.5 mM FeCl 3 . At -0.1 V, place the ITO substrate electrode in the electroplating solution and deposit for 100 s. After the deposition is completed, vibrate and stir the electroplating solution, and keep the electrode in the solution for 5 min. Repeat the entire electroplating process 4 times. An obvious blue film appears on the ITO electrode, indicating the successful preparation of the PB / ITO electrode. Wash the PB / ITO electrode with deionized water to remove some physically adsorbed impurities on the surface, and then dry it at 80°C for 10 (8 - 12) h.

[0072] Then, electrochemically deposit on the PB / ITO electrode. The electrochemical deposition uses a three-electrode system, where the saturated Ag / AgCl electrode is the reference electrode, the platinum column electrode is the counter electrode, and the PB / ITO electrode is the working electrode. The experiment is as follows: First, prepare a solution containing 0.25 M aniline, 0.2 M sulfuric acid, 0.05 M K 2 HPO 4The electroplating solution. Then, the PB / ITO electrode was placed in the electroplating solution, and with a potential of 0.1 - 1V and a scanning rate of 5mv / s, after scanning 20 cycles, the deposition was completed. The PANI / PB / ITO indicator electrode was washed with deionized water to remove some physically adsorbed impurities on the surface, and then dried at 80 °C for 10 (8 - 12) h.

[0073] The present invention also provides a Hg 2+ visual quantitative detection method, which uses a Hg 2+ visual quantitative detection device for detection, including the following steps:

[0074] S1: The optoelectrode MCH / SH-DNA / Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO was incubated in 5 μL of a standard solution containing 10 -3 -10 -13 mol / L of Hg 2+ and SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA for 30 min, and the unbonded SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA was rinsed with ultrapure water to obtain the sensing electrode 2, SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA / Hg 2+ / MCH / SH-DNA / Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs / ITO.

[0075] S2: One end of the sensing electrode 2 and the indicator electrode 3 (PANI / PB / ITO) were respectively pasted with conductive adhesive 6. Two self-prepared conductive clips 7 were used, and the two conductive clips 7 were connected with a wire 4. The two conductive clips 7 were inserted into a movable insulating bracket 5 with two holes (spacing 3 - 5 cm), and then clamped respectively on the sensing electrode 2 and the indicator electrode 3 pasted with conductive adhesive 6 to form an arch bridge.

[0076] S3: After connecting the sensing electrode 2 and the indicator electrode 3, they were placed in a colorimetric cell 1 (2*6*4 cm) containing an electrolyte solution of KCl (1%, w / w), 0.1M PBS buffer (0.1M KH 2 PO 4 , 0.1M Na 2 HPO 4 ), pH = 7.0, and placed in a dark box to ensure that the orientations of the sensing electrode 2 and the indicator electrode 3 and the immersion heights in the electrolyte liquid surface were the same.

[0077] S4: In the dark box, the Hg-incubated sample was irradiated directly (distance 15 - 20 cm) with a light source having a visible wavelength of 680 - 730 nm2+ On the front side of the sensing electrode 2, after 15 - 20 minutes of light irradiation, the color of the indicating electrode 3 changes. Observe the color change of the indicator with the naked eye to achieve visual detection of different Hg 2+ concentration.

[0078] S5: Under the condition of ensuring unified shooting conditions, take a photo of the indicating electrode 3 after light irradiation in step S4. Use Photoshop software to read the average value G of the color intensity of the green channel displayed in the electronic photo of the indicating electrode 3 avg , and draw a standard curve through the change of the standard Hg 2+ concentration (10 -3 , 10 -5 , 10 -7 , 10 -9 , 10 -11 , 10 -13 mol / L). Replace the standard solution of Hg 2+ in step S1 with the solution to be measured for Hg 2+ , and perform detection according to the Hg 2+ detection method described in S1, S2, S3, and S4. Obtain the concentration of the Hg avg to be measured based on the obtained G 2+ and the drawn working curve to achieve quantitative detection.

[0079] The visual detection Hg 2 sensing mechanism driven by the photoelectric effect of Ag 2+ S@ZnO NTs is as Figure 2 shown. Under visible light irradiation, both zinc oxide nanotubes (ZnO NTs) and silver sulfide (Ag 2 S) will generate photo - generated electron - hole pairs. Due to the relatively low conduction band (CB) of ZnONTs, the photo - excited electrons from Ag 2 S will spontaneously transfer to ZnO NTs, and then be transmitted through the external circuit to the Prussian blue / polyaniline / ITO (PANI / PB / ITO) electrode, causing the Prussian blue (PB) in it to obtain electrons and turn into Prussian white (PW). At the same time, due to the relatively high valence band (VB) of Ag 2 S, the holes generated by ZnO NTs will migrate to Ag 2 S and oxidize the PANI on the PANI / PB / ITO electrode placed in the electrolyte solution, causing it to undergo an oxidation reaction. In this process, PANI / PB will undergo a color change of different degrees of EM - PANI / PB (dark green) - PNA - PANI / PW (black). Based on this, in order to achieve quantitative visual detection of Hg 2+ , SH - DNA is fixed on Ag 2On the photoactive matrix of S@ZnO NTs, Ag 2 The S photoactive substrate can specifically bind to Hg through the thymine (T) base in SH-DNA 2+ to form T-Hg 2+ Yes. T-Hg 2+ The pair can bind to SiO added during the incubation 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA. Due to the introduction of SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA, the space resistance is increased, resulting in the hindrance of the transfer of photo-generated carriers of ZnO, Ag 2 S, causing the above-mentioned change in the degree of color change of PANI / PB and enabling the color states corresponding to different Hg 2+ concentrations to be clearly observed with the naked eye. By reading the G avg value using Photoshop software, taking G avg as the dependent variable and Hg 2+ concentration as the independent variable, a standard curve is plotted to achieve the visual quantitative detection of Hg 2+ .

[0080] To prove the accuracy of the mechanism, the ultraviolet absorbance and cyclic voltammogram of PB / PANI were measured before and after the photoanode was illuminated, respectively. The results are as Figure 3 shown. a represents PB / PANI before illumination, and b represents PB / PANI after illumination. After illumination, the absorption peak position of the corresponding PB / PANI (curve b) undergoes a blue shift, and some studies have shown that this is due to the oxidation of PANI

[0081] In addition, it can be found from the cyclic voltammogram Figure 4 that a represents PB / PANI before illumination, and b represents PB / PANI after illumination. After illumination, the current value of PB / PANI (curve b) decreases and the conductivity weakens, which is because when polyaniline is in the fully oxidized state, it will lose its conductivity. These results all indicate that after illumination, PB / PNNI will be redoxed by the generated photo-generated carriers, resulting in a color change

[0082] Under the optimal experimental conditions, the visual quantitative detection of Hg 2+ was carried out Figure 5 As avg shown, the G 2+ value of PB / PANI increases with the increase of Hg 2+ concentration. This phenomenon can be attributed to the fact that the higher the Hg -13, 10 -12 , 10 -11 , 10 -10 , 10 -9 , 10 -8 , 10 -7 , 10 -6 , 10 -5 , 10 -4 , 10 -3 mol / L) had an obvious color change difference. Moreover, the G value of PB / PANI avg was linearly related to the concentration of Hg 2+ . The linear regression equation was Gavg = 117.67 + 5.57 log CHg 2+ / M (R 2 = 0.998).

[0083] 1.1. SEM, XRD, Uv-vis, and FT-IR characterizations of the synthetic preparation materials involved in the preparation method

[0084] 1.11. Related characterizations of ZnO NRs, ZnO NTs, Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs

[0085] As Figure 6 shown, the ZnO material prepared in the first step was nanorod-shaped. In order to provide more growth space for the in-situ grown Ag 2 S, the ZnO nanorods were transformed into ZnO nanotubes under alkali corrosion. Then, it can be found from the part (C) of Figure 6 that new Ag 2 S was generated on the ZnO nanotubes.

[0086] In addition, in order to study the crystal phase of the synthetic materials, XRD characterizations were performed on ZnO NTs and Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs respectively. It can be found from Figure 7 that the XRD pattern of ZnO NTs showed a good hexagonal match (JCPDS card number #36-1451), and no impurity peaks were observed, indicating that the ZnO NTs sample was pure hexagonal. After the deposition of Ag 2 S, peaks corresponding to α-Ag 2 S (JCPDS card number #14-0072) were observed, further indicating the successful preparation of Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs.

[0087] 1.12. Related characterizations of PB, PANI, and PB / PANI

[0088] As Figure 8As shown, in the FT-IR spectrum, the presence of PB can be verified by absorption peaks at 601.7 cm -1 and 2082.7 cm -1 , which are attributed to the bending mode of Fe-CN-Fe, the vibration mode of Fe-CN, and the cyanide stretching mode. The absorption peaks at 1610.3 cm -1 and 3635.2 cm -1 correspond to the stretching mode of O-H, indicating that coordinated water is within the framework of PB. In addition, the characteristic absorption peaks of PANI, corresponding to the region specified by the dashed box in the PB / PANI curve, range from 750 - 1500 cm -1 . Figure 9 Figure is the SEM image of PB / PANI. It can be seen from the figure that coral-shaped PANI is deposited on the surface of PB, and the structure is compact.

[0089] As Figure 10 , provides the UV absorption spectra of PB / PANI, PANI, and PB alone. We can find that the coloring of PANI / PB is obviously due to two chromophores. In addition, the prepared PANI shows an emerald green color in the semi-oxidized state, that is, a PANI / PB composite based on the intermediate oxidation state (EM-PANI) is prepared, and it reproduces the characteristic absorbance of PANI at 350 nm. In addition, the peak position of PB is shown at 680 nm, and due to the absorption peak of polyaniline also existing at about 750 - 800 nm, the peak position of PANI / PB is redshifted relative to PB. The above results all indicate the successful preparation of PANI / PB.

[0090] 1.2. Optimization of detection conditions

[0091] 1.21. Optimization of in-situ growth of Ag 2 S

[0092] During the experiment, as the number of SILAR cycles increases, the color of the electrode changes from light yellow to brown, indicating that the deposition amount of Ag 2 S on ZnO NTs gradually increases, resulting in more light absorption. Figure 11 Shows the photocurrents of Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs electrodes with several different SILAR cycles. At the beginning, the photocurrent intensity of the Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs electrode increases with the increase of SILAR cycles, and the best photocurrent value is generated at the third SILAR cycle, which is attributed to the improved light absorption caused by the loading of Ag 2 S. As the number of cycles further increases, the photocurrent gradually decreases because the effective surface area of the electrolyte solution is due to Ag 2The excessive deposition of S is reduced, which prevents the tube gaps of ZnO NTs. In addition, the additional Ag 2 S increases the diffusion resistance of electron transfer and provides more surface recombination. Therefore, three cycles of Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs electrodes are used in the experiments.

[0093] 1.22. Optimize the excitation light wavelength and bias voltage

[0094] When Ag 2 S@ZnO NTs is irradiated by visible light of different wavelengths, its response photocurrent will be different. To obtain the maximum optoelectronic signal, we respectively studied the effects of several different excitation wavelengths on the generated photocurrent. The results are as Figure 12 shown. The maximum photocurrent is generated at an excitation wavelength of 730 nm. Therefore, 730 nm is the optimal excitation wavelength in this experiment. In addition, in Figure 13 , when the bias potential is 0 V, the generated photocurrent is the largest. Therefore, 0 V is selected as the optimal bias potential for testing the photocurrent in this experiment.

[0095] 1.23. Optimize the incubation time of Hg 2+ and SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA solution

[0096] Since specific recognition can occur between antigen and antibody, the incubation time of the antigen will affect the prepared sensor. The results are as Figure 14 shown. When incubating the target with Hg 2+ and SiO 2 @Ag-NH 2 -DNA solution, the generated photocurrent basically does not change after 30 min because the reaction has reached equilibrium. Therefore, 30 min is selected as the optimal incubation time.
