Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nano materials, and in particular relates to a sensor for detecting copper ions and magnesium ions and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Water is an essential resource for human survival. However, the widespread use of metal ions in various production activities will produce a large amount of industrial wastewater containing metal ions, which has serious toxic effects on the environment and human health. Therefore, researchers are committed to exploring simpler and more efficient detection of metal ions in water, including copper ions and magnesium ions. Copper is the third most abundant metal on earth (after iron and zinc). In addition, copper is an essential element for most organisms. Copper ions are catalysts for various metal enzymes and proteins in organisms and play a vital role in various biological processes and metabolic pathways. Therefore, in order to ensure normal biochemical processes, the copper content in organisms must be maintained within a reasonable numerical range. Low copper content may cause anemia, but high copper content may cause gastrointestinal diseases and even damage the liver and kidneys. Excessive copper ions in organisms are usually caused by water pollution. Magnesium ions are the second largest cation in human cells after potassium ions. As a cofactor for more than 300 enzymes, they play an important role in controlling ion transport, structural stability of proteins, enzymes and nucleic acids. Although magnesium is not a heavy metal, insufficient magnesium ions in the body may lead to a variety of diseases, including hypocalcemia and hypokalemia, and excessive intake of magnesium ions can also have a great impact on the human nervous system, urinary system and hematopoietic system. In addition, the water hardness caused by magnesium ions will involve cerebrovascular disease and cardiovascular risks, which is a very concerned issue in domestic and industrial wastewater management. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a portable and efficient method for detecting copper ions and magnesium ions in environmental water.
[0003] At present, the traditional methods for detecting metal ions rely on the interconnection of large and complex instruments, such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) and electrochemical (EC) technology. However, these methods require expensive equipment and well-trained operators and cannot meet the needs of on-site real-time detection. In recent years, many researchers are no longer satisfied with traditional and time-consuming detection methods, but choose portable and efficient methods to detect harmful substances, such as colorimetry. Colorimetry refers to a method of determining the concentration of a target substance by measuring the color depth of a solution in the presence of a colorimetric probe. It has the characteristics of rapid detection, easy observation, and high sensitivity. This method can be combined with fluorescence or UV-visible spectroscopy detection to achieve qualitative and quantitative dual detection. It has a wide range of applications in environmental monitoring, food inspection, clinical diagnosis and other fields. In recent years, the rapid development of nanotechnology has prompted scientific researchers to study gold nanomaterials for the detection of target pollutants. Compared with copper nanomaterials and silver nanomaterials, gold nanomaterials have low toxicity, high stability and good biological inertness. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are the best form of gold nanomaterials and show no toxicity to zebrafish, a model that is highly homologous to the human genome. Therefore, when AuNPs are released into the environment, they will not have an adverse effect on the environment. The colorimetric detection method based on AuNPs can achieve reasonable functional modification of the gold nanosurface by specific ligands, thereby changing the dispersion / aggregation state of AuNPs in the solution and producing color changes and changes in the intensity and displacement of the resonance absorption peak, meeting the goal of rapid and accurate on-site detection, and easily identifying the presence of analytes with the naked eye. Based on the programmability of DNA, researchers have attempted to use gold nanoparticles modified with DNAzymes to detect metal ions by color changes. However, this method still requires complex pretreatment and expensive raw materials, which does not meet the basic goal of simple / real-time on-site detection of the present invention. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technology to be solved by the present invention is to provide a functionalized gold nanoparticle with high sensitivity, low detection limit and good selectivity for the above-mentioned technical problems. The gold nanoparticle is used as a colorimetric detection sensor for rapid and convenient detection of copper ions and magnesium ions in lake water, tap water and mineral water.
[0005] The present invention selects 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole as a modifier to prepare functionalized gold nanoparticles for detecting copper ions and magnesium ions, and has high sensitivity and good specificity. The naked eye detection limit (LOD) of copper ions is 30.0 μM, and the ultraviolet visible spectrum detection limit is 0.191 μM. The naked eye detection limit (LOD) of magnesium ions is 300.0 μM, and the ultraviolet visible spectrum detection limit is 0.337 μM.

The change in the aggregation state of gold nanoparticles causes a change in the surface plasmon resonance absorption (SPR) of gold nanoparticles. The quantitative detection of copper ions can be achieved based on the change in the intensity and displacement of the SPR absorption peak. The procedure and principle for detecting magnesium ions are the same as those for copper ions.

[0042] The prepared solution is diluted by half with deionized water, and then 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole is added as a modifier to prepare a functionalized gold nanoparticle aqueous solution, which is the sensor for detecting copper ions and magnesium ions. The sensor can be used to detect copper ions and magnesium ions in the sample to be tested.
[0043] Preparation of copper ion and magnesium ion standard cards:
[0044] Step (1): add 1.0 mL of 12.5 mM chloroauric acid tetrahydrate and 49 mL of ultrapure water to a round-bottom flask to obtain a 0.25 mM chloroauric acid aqueous solution, heat to boiling while stirring, quickly add 2.5 mL of a 38.8 mM sodium citrate aqueous solution, react for 15 to 20 minutes, the solution color gradually changes from light yellow to wine red, and cool to room temperature, dilute the prepared solution by half with deionized water to obtain a gold nanoparticle aqueous solution, and store it in a refrigerator at 4°C for later use; when detecting copper ions or magnesium ions, take 0.8 mL of the prepared gold nanoparticle aqueous solution and 0.1 mL 40 μM 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole (modifier) is first added into the detection tube at a volume ratio of 8:1, and the pH value of the reaction mixture solution is adjusted to 5, thereby obtaining a functionalized gold nanoparticle aqueous solution modified with 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole, which is the sensor for detecting copper ions and magnesium ions. The sensor can be used to detect copper ions and magnesium ions in a sample to be tested;
[0045] Step (2): Prepare a series of copper ion standard aqueous solutions of different concentrations using deionized water and 1.0 mM copper ion standard solution, the concentrations being 10 μM, 20 μM, 30 μM, 40 μM, 50 μM, 60 μM, 70 μM, 80 μM, 90 μM and 100 μM, respectively. Take 0.1 mL of copper ion standard solutions of different concentrations and add them to 0.9 mL of the functionalized gold nanoparticle aqueous solution prepared in step (1) above, respectively. Let stand for 20 minutes. Copper ions coordinate with the organic ligand 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole modified on the surface of gold nanoparticles, causing the gold nanoparticles to aggregate ( Figure 2 ), and the color of the reaction solution changes. According to the different colors reflected by different solution concentrations, a standard colorimetric card with gradient copper ion concentration is obtained, including a card with blank test results ( Figure 4 ).

The magnesium ions coordinated with the organic ligand 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole modified on the surface of the gold nanoparticles to cause the gold nanoparticles to aggregate ( Figure 3), and the color of the reaction solution changes. According to the different colors reflected by different solution concentrations, a standard colorimetric card of gradient magnesium ion concentration is obtained, including a card of blank test results ( Figure 5 ).
[0047] Draw the copper ion standard curve:
[0048] The copper ion standard solutions of different concentrations were added to the functionalized gold nanoparticle aqueous solution modified by 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole. After standing for 20 minutes, the peak position and intensity of the surface plasmon resonance absorption peak of the gold nanoparticles in each reaction solution in the wavelength range of 400-800nm were measured. The spectrum was plotted with the wavelength as the abscissa and the sample absorbance as the ordinate ( Figure 6 ) and record the absorbance ratio of the UV-visible spectrum at the two peaks of 651nm and 522nm. Use the concentration of the standard sample as the horizontal axis and the absorbance ratio as the vertical axis to draw a standard curve ( Figure 7 ), through linear fitting, we get Cu 2+ The linear equation of the standard curve of the ion solution is: in the range of copper ion concentration 10-100 μM, Y=0.01572X-0.04942, R 2 =0.94.
[0049] Different concentrations of copper ions were detected using standard cards and standard curves. The naked eye detection limit was 30.0 μM, and the UV-visible spectrum detection limit was 0.191 μM. The calculation formula for the UV-visible spectrum detection limit was 3×σ / S, where σ is the standard deviation and S is the slope.
[0050] Draw a standard curve for magnesium ion:
[0051] The above magnesium ion standard solutions of different concentrations were added to the functionalized gold nanoparticle aqueous solution modified by 5-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-tetrazole, and after standing for 20 minutes, the peak position and intensity of the surface plasmon resonance absorption peak of the gold nanoparticles in each reaction solution in the wavelength range of 400-800nm were measured, and the UV-visible spectrum absorbance ratio at the two peaks of 670nm and 522nm was recorded. The standard curve ( Figure 8 ), and through linear fitting, we get Mg 2+ The linear equation of the standard curve of the ion solution is: in the range of magnesium ion concentration of 150-300 μM, Y=0.00889X-1.2286, R 2 =0.99.
[0052] Different concentrations of magnesium ions were detected using standard cards and standard curves. The naked eye detection limit was 300 μM, and the UV-visible spectrum detection limit was 0.337 μM. The calculation formula for the UV-visible spectrum detection limit was 3×σ / S, where σ was the standard deviation and S was the slope.
[0053] Selective experiment
[0054] In order to investigate the selectivity of the prepared sensor (functionalized gold nanoparticles aqueous solution) for the detection of copper and magnesium ions, 15 different types of ions (500 μM: Fe 2+ , Mn 2+ 、Cd 2+ , Ba 2+ 、Zn 2+ 、Ni 2+ Mg 2+ 、Co 2+ , Fe 3+ , Pb 2+ , Sr 2+ Sn 2+ 、Na + , Ca 2+ ; 30μM:Cu 2+ ) were added to the prepared functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) aqueous solution, and the obtained colorimetric display was as shown in Fig. 9 As shown, solutions containing copper ions or magnesium ions can functionalize the color of the gold nanoparticle aqueous solution from wine red to gray-blue, while the other 13 ions cannot change the color of the functionalized gold nanoparticle aqueous solution, and its color remains consistent with the blank sample, which is wine red. Fig.10 It can be seen that copper ions (A 651nm / A 522nm ) or magnesium ion (A 670nm / A 522nm The UV spectrum curve of the sample is obviously different from that of the blank sample and the absorbance ratio of the sample containing only other interfering ions. These results show that the sensor has excellent selectivity for the detection of copper ions and magnesium ions.
[0055] Anti-interference experiment
[0056] According to the actual detection needs, the detection method also investigated the anti-interference performance of the prepared sensor for copper ion detection. 0.05mL of 30μM copper ion solution was mixed with 0.05mL of 500μM solutions of 14 other ions to obtain 14 mixed ion solutions containing copper ions and other interferences. The results showed that the color of the mixed ion solution containing copper ions and other interferences changed, which was very different from the color of the blank solution ( Fig.11 ). Anti-interference test diagram is shown in Fig.12As shown, Fig.12 It shows that after a mixed ion solution containing copper ions and other interfering ions is added to the functionalized AuNPs solution, its UV spectrum is significantly different from the absorbance of the blank sample, indicating that the prepared sensor has no effect on copper ion detection in the presence of other ions and has strong anti-interference performance.
