Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of chemical analysis and detection, and particularly relates to a synthesis method of a MOFs composite material and its application in glyphosate detection. Background Art

[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to those skilled in the art.

[0003] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous coordination polymers composed of metal nodes or clusters connected by organic ligands. They possess characteristics such as large surface area, ease of synthesis, and structural tunability, and are widely used in catalysis, energy storage, and sensing. Among them, ZIF-90, a zeolitic imidazolate framework material, has advantages such as large surface area, uniform pore structure, high hydrothermal and chemical stability, easy modification, and simple synthesis. It can be widely used in separation, adsorption, catalysis, and drug delivery. ZnTCPP, a derivative of TCPP, exhibits excellent photoresponsive oxidase activity and fluorescence properties.

[0004] Glyphosate is one of the most commonly used herbicides worldwide. Due to its overuse, it has seeped into groundwater and soil systems, posing a serious threat to aquatic and terrestrial organisms. As a potent endocrine disruptor, glyphosate not only causes severe damage to placental cells but also causes damage to human DNA, plasma, and epithelial cells. Therefore, glyphosate detection is a crucial measure to ensure human health and safety.

[0005] Currently, the main methods for glyphosate detection include gas chromatography (GC), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). However, high costs and cumbersome sample pretreatment limit their application in rapid detection. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop sensors based on MOF composites for highly sensitive and specific dual-modal detection of glyphosate. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In response to the current status of glyphosate detection, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a synthesis of a MOFs composite material and its application in glyphosate detection. The prepared MOFs composite material is incubated with glyphosate. Glyphosate will specifically recognize the Zn nodes of the MOFs composite material, destroying the material and releasing ZnTCPP molecules, which can be used to detect glyphosate content in water.

[0007] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] The first aspect of the present invention provides a method for synthesizing a MOFs composite material, comprising:

[0009] Dissolve zinc porphyrin, zinc acetate dihydrate, and imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde in an organic solvent, stir at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours, and centrifuge to obtain a solution containing ZnTCPP@ZIF-90. Wash with ethanol several times and dry to obtain ZnTCPP@ZIF-90.

[0010] The mass ratio of the zinc porphyrin, zinc acetate dihydrate and imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde is 2.2-2.5:22-25:19-24.

[0011] The MOFs composite material prepared by the above preparation method is synthesized from ZnTCPP and ZIF-90. Among them, ZIF-90 is a zeolite imidazole ester framework material with the advantages of large specific surface area, uniform pore structure, high hydrothermal stability and chemical stability, easy modification and simple synthesis. It can be widely used in separation, adsorption, catalysis, drug delivery and other fields. ZnTCPP, as a derivative of TCPP, has good photoresponsive oxidase activity and fluorescence properties. ZnTCPP is encapsulated by ZIF-90, which can make the MOFs composite material have both photoresponsive oxidase activity and fluorescence properties. By utilizing the specific recognition of glyphosate, the outer ZIF-90 shell is destroyed, and the ZnTCPP molecules are released, which can achieve effective detection of glyphosate.

[0012] Among them, ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 has weak light-responsive oxidase activity and fluorescence properties in the buffer solution due to the encapsulation effect of ZIF-90; when glyphosate solution is added, glyphosate and imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde react with Zn 2+ Competitive coordination on the ZIF-90 material causes it to disintegrate, releasing ZnTCPP molecules. Due to ZIF-90's unique recognition of glyphosate and the excellent photoresponsive oxidase activity and fluorescence properties of ZnTCPP molecules, ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 exhibits unique dual-modal detection of glyphosate, enabling rapid and highly selective detection of glyphosate in aqueous solution. The enhanced photoresponsive oxidase activity and fluorescence intensity of the MOF composite material can be used to quantitatively determine glyphosate concentration.

[0013] The second aspect of the present invention provides a MOFs composite material prepared by the above method.

[0014] The present invention encapsulates ZnTCPP molecules in ZIF-90 to synthesize ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 for detecting glyphosate.

[0015] The third aspect of the present invention provides the use of the above-mentioned MOFs composite material in the detection of glyphosate.

[0016] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a method for colorimetrically detecting glyphosate concentration using the ZnTCPP@ZIF-90, comprising:

[0017] Glyphosate of different concentrations was prepared as a standard solution; the MOFs composite material was added to the glyphosate solution of different concentrations and mixed evenly, and then an o-phenylenediamine (OPD) solution was added to the reaction system. After irradiation for 20 to 25 minutes, the ultraviolet absorption intensity at 425 nm was measured. Based on the measured ultraviolet absorption intensity, a linear relationship between glyphosate concentration and ultraviolet absorption intensity was established;

[0018] Repeat the above steps to detect a glyphosate test solution of unknown concentration, and compare the test result with the test result of the standard solution to obtain the concentration value of the glyphosate test solution.

[0019] A fifth aspect of the present invention provides a method for detecting glyphosate concentration using the ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 fluorescence method, comprising:

[0020] Glyphosate at different concentrations was prepared as a standard solution. The MOFs composite material was added to the glyphosate solution at different concentrations and mixed evenly. Then, an o-phenylenediamine (OPD) solution was added to the reaction system. After irradiation for 20 to 25 minutes, the fluorescence emission peak intensities of the OPDox and ZnTCPP molecules were detected. Based on the measured fluorescence emission intensities, a linear relationship between glyphosate concentration and fluorescence intensity was established.

[0021] Repeat the above steps to detect the glyphosate test solution, and compare the test result with the test result of the standard solution to obtain the concentration value of the glyphosate test solution.

[0022] Since the synthesized ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 has a large number of zinc metal nodes, the phosphate groups of glyphosate are used to compete with the zinc metal nodes for coordination, causing the ZIF-90 material to disintegrate and release ZnTCPP molecules.

[0023] Among them, OPD serves as the signal indicator of the reaction, which can be catalyzed by ZnTCPP molecules to OPDox, converting the glyphosate concentration signal into a light / electrical signal that is easy to observe.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0025] (1) The synthesis process of ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 is simple, time-saving, and the raw materials are inexpensive and readily available. In the field of colorimetric and fluorescence sensing, the specific recognition of glyphosate by ZIF-90 can achieve efficient glyphosate detection. In summary, the ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 of the present invention is a low-cost, convenient, and sensitive probe for glyphosate detection, and has broad application prospects in the fields of colorimetric and fluorescence sensing.

[0026] (2) The method of the present invention is simple, low-cost, universal, and easy to scale up. The cascade system of ZnTCPP@ZIF-90 is the novelty and uniqueness of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
