Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrochemical sensing and detection technology, and in particular to a covalent organic framework porous Fe3O4 electrochemical sensor for detecting norfloxacin and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Norfloxacin is a third-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic and one of the most widely used fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Norfloxacin has low metabolic activity in humans and animals, resulting in 40-90% of its active metabolites being released into the environment through domestic sewage and aquaculture wastewater. In recent years, norfloxacin has been frequently detected in various aquatic environments, even in drinking water. Antibiotics in the aquatic environment can lead to microbial imbalances and even induce the development of drug-resistant genes. Furthermore, they can accumulate in the human body through the food chain, inducing the development of drug-resistant genes. Their mechanism of action is to inhibit bacterial DNA gyrase, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and transcription, leading to bacterial death. Drug-resistant bacteria may also contain resistance plasmids, which can transfer between different species and strains, posing a significant threat to the prevention and control of infectious diseases.
[0003] Currently, the main methods for detecting norfloxacin are Raman scattering, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and liquid chromatography (LC). Raman scattering confirms the presence of norfloxacin by comparing it to standard spectra and can quantitatively detect residues above 1 mg / kg, but its sensitivity is insufficient, with a limit of detection (LOD) only reaching the ppm level. ELISA involves immobilizing a norfloxacin-carrier protein conjugate on the surface of a microplate and measuring the absorbance (OD value) using an ELISA reader. The concentration of norfloxacin is calculated using a standard curve, allowing for quantitative detection of residues from 1 to 10 mg / kg. However, because norfloxacin has a structure similar to other quinolone antibiotics (such as ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin), it is extremely prone to antibody cross-reactions, leading to false positives or false negatives. LC detects norfloxacin's presence through its ultraviolet absorption (maximum absorption wavelength approximately 278 nm), but LC instruments and maintenance are expensive, making it unsuitable for small laboratories or on-site testing. In contrast, electrochemical technology has attracted widespread attention due to its simple operation, fast analysis speed, low cost, high sensitivity and accuracy. Summary of the Invention

The COF shell layer forms a highly ordered two-dimensional layered structure through an alkaline condensation reaction. The narrow pores formed between the two-dimensional layers can accurately identify quinolone antibiotic molecules such as norfloxacin, allowing for selective enrichment of antibiotic molecules on the material surface.

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the embodiments are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art.
[0036] This invention provides an Fe3O4@COF electrochemical sensor based on a covalent organic framework, comprising: a base electrode with a solid film modified on its surface; the solid film being a Fe3O4@COF composite material; the Fe3O4@COF composite material comprising: a core composed of porous iron(III) oxide and a COF shell layer attached to the surface of the core; the COF shell layer being a covalent organic framework layer formed by copolymerization of aromatic aldehydes and polyamino aromatic compounds.
[0037] The Fe3O4 core provides abundant Fe... 2+ / Fe 3+ Redox active sites generate reactive oxygen species (ROS, such as ·OH radicals) during the detection of quinolone antibiotic molecules like norfloxacin. These radicals are highly oxidizing and can efficiently oxidize and degrade quinolone antibiotic molecules. Their mesoporous structure can significantly increase the specific surface area of the material, promoting the adsorption and catalytic degradation of quinolone antibiotic molecules. The oxidized and degraded molecules generate characteristic current signals, and the oxidation products form a conductive layer on the electrode surface, triggering a cascade amplification of the electrochemical signal, increasing the electron transfer rate, and thus improving the detection sensitivity of the sensor.
[0038] The COF outer shell forms a highly ordered two-dimensional layered structure through an alkaline condensation reaction. The slit pores (0.5~2 nm) formed between the two-dimensional layers exhibit size selectivity for quinolone antibiotic molecules. The hydroxyl groups on its surface achieve specific adsorption of quinolone antibiotic molecules through hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking effects. This molecular sieve effect and selective adsorption capability selectively enrich quinolone antibiotic molecules on the material surface, significantly increasing the local concentration and thus improving the detection sensitivity of quinolone antibiotic molecules. At the same time, the positively charged Fe-O bonds on the Fe3O4 core surface and the negatively charged COF hydroxyl groups form a stable core-shell composite structure through electrostatic attraction, constructing a stable interface with quinolone antibiotic molecule recognition function. This optimizes the interface electron transport path, accelerates the interface reaction kinetics, and thus improves the sensor's anti-interference and stability, and enhances the detection sensitivity.
[0039] Under the synergistic mechanism of Fe3O4 and COF, it can efficiently adsorb and degrade quinolone antibiotic molecules such as norfloxacin, improve anti-interference and stability, and thus enhance detection sensitivity.
[0040] Specifically, the aromatic aldehyde compound is one or more selected from dimethoxyterephthalaldehyde (DMTP), terephthalaldehyde, benzaldehyde, salicylaldehyde, and vanillin; the polyamino aromatic compound is one or more selected from 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene (TAPB), p-phenylenediamine, and 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine. The molar ratio of the aromatic aldehyde compound to the polyamino aromatic compound is 1:(1~2). The mesoporous pore size of the iron(III) oxide is 20~50 nm.
[0041] p-Phenylenediamine, as a diamine, contains two amino groups and can react with metal ions (Fe3O4) on the surface of Fe3O4. 2+ or Fe 3+ These amino groups form coordination bonds, thereby modifying the material surface and enhancing its dispersibility or stability. 1,3,5-Tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene and 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine, as triamino monomers, contain three amino groups with a more symmetrical spatial distribution. This structure provides more coordination sites, forming stronger coordination bonds with Fe3O4, resulting in more stable surface modification. Furthermore, the three amino groups may promote more complex cross-linking structures during synthesis, such as forming a three-dimensional network during polymerization to encapsulate Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
[0042] In the surface modification of Fe3O4 nanoparticles, the number and spatial distribution of amino groups have a significant impact on the stability and functionalization of the material.
[0043] p-Phenylenediamine, as a diamine, has two primary amino groups that can react with Fe on the surface of Fe3O4. 2+ / Fe3+ Ions form bidentate coordination bonds (Fe-N bonds), thereby improving the dispersibility of nanoparticles and inhibiting their oxidation-enhanced stability. Triamino monomers such as 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene and 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine, due to their C3 symmetry and bidentate coordination configuration (bond angle 120°), can form tripole-anchored coordination with the Fe3O4 surface, improving the stability of the modified layer. In addition, triamino monomers can condense with three aldehyde monomers to construct crosslinking densities reaching 10. 20 cm -3 The COF network described above encapsulates Fe3O4 particles in a shell 20–50 nm thick. However, the triamino monomer is highly susceptible to amorphous products due to insufficient kinetic control during the reaction.
[0044] Dimethoxy-terephthalaldehyde, as a dialdehyde monomer, forms a two-dimensional lattice with β-keto-enamine linkages through a base condensation reaction between the para-distributed aldehyde groups and polyamine monomers. Ordered slit pores (0.5–2 nm) are formed between the layers via π-π stacking, exhibiting selective adsorption effects for small molecules.
[0045] Dimethoxy-terephthalaldehyde contains two para-positioned aldehyde groups, which readily form a two-dimensional layered COF upon condensation with polyamine monomers. The narrow pores formed between the two layers are suitable for the selective adsorption of small molecules. The +I / +M effect of the ortho-methoxy group reduces the electrophilicity of the aldehyde carbon, inhibits side reactions, increases the crystallinity of the imine bond, and suppresses the formation of amorphous products from the triamine monomer. Furthermore, the steric hindrance and hydrolysis resistance of the methoxy group enable the material to exhibit strong acid and alkali resistance. Simultaneously, the electron-donating effect of the methoxy group can modulate the band structure of the COF, optimizing its photocatalytic or electrochemical performance. The two-dimensional layered structure suppresses the "shuttle effect" of polysulfides, improving current stability.
[0046] This invention provides a method for preparing a Fe3O4@COF electrochemical sensor based on a covalent organic framework, comprising the following steps:
[0047] S1: Preparation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles;
[0048] S2: Aromatic aldehydes and polyamino aromatic compounds are dissolved in a solvent to form a mixture; Fe3O4 nanoparticles are added to the mixture and ultrasonically treated under the action of a catalyst to obtain Fe3O4@COF composite material;
[0049] S3: The Fe3O4@COF composite material is drop-coated onto the surface of the electrode to form a solid film, thus obtaining the finished product.
[0050] In step S1 above, the preparation method of Fe3O4 nanoparticles includes the following steps:
[0051] S11: Dissolve ferrous salt and aluminum salt in distilled water, add ammonia water and mix well to form a reaction solution. The reaction solution undergoes a redox reaction at 50~60℃ and is then subjected to ultrasonic treatment to obtain a suspension.
[0052] S12: The magnetic aggregate phase in the suspension is separated by magnetic separation, and the magnetic aggregate phase is dried and nano-sized pulverized to obtain the Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
[0053] The solvent is a mixed solution of butanol and 1,4-dioxane in a volume ratio of (1~3):1; the catalyst can be acetic acid. The mass ratio of ferrous salt, aluminum salt and ammonia is 2:(2~3):(1~10); the temperature of the redox reaction is 50~60℃.
[0054] The base electrode was activated by cyclic voltammetry at a scan rate of 50 to 100 mV / s within a potential range of -0.6 to 1.0 V (reference electrode), with 10 to 20 cycles.
[0055] This invention provides an application of a covalent organic framework-based Fe3O4@COF electrochemical sensor in the detection of norfloxacin.

[0057] Configuration 10 -12 ~10 -4 Norfloxacin standard solutions with M concentration gradient;
[0058] The oxidation peak current values of norfloxacin standard solutions with different concentration gradients were detected by differential pulse voltammetry. The oxidation peak current value I was linearly regressed with the concentration C to obtain the linear regression equation I=kC+b.
[0059] A certain amount of sample was placed in an electrolytic cell, and the oxidation peak current value of the sample was detected by differential pulse voltammetry. The concentration of norfloxacin in the sample was calculated by the following formula (1):
[0060] C=(Ib) / k(1)
[0061] Specifically, the Fe3O4@COF electrochemical sensor uses a glassy carbon electrode as the base electrode, constructing a Fe3O4@COF / GCE sensor. A platinum wire electrode is used as the counter electrode, and a saturated calomel electrode is used as the reference electrode. The electrolyte in the electrolytic cell includes a PBS buffer solution with a volume ratio of (4~5):1 and a potassium ferricyanide solution with a molar concentration of 3~5 mmol / L.

The COF shell layer is a covalent organic framework layer formed by the copolymerization of dimethoxytetraphenyl phthalaldehyde and 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene.
[0065] This invention provides a method for preparing a Fe3O4@COF electrochemical sensor based on a covalent organic framework, comprising the following steps:
[0066] 1) Dissolve 10.0g of ferrous sulfate and 15.0g of aluminum chloride hexahydrate in 200mL of double-distilled water to form solution A; place solution A on a magnetic stirrer and heat to 50℃, add 15mL of ammonia water to 100mL of double-distilled water to form solution B; mix solution A and solution B, add 3-4 drops of ethanol, and sonicate at 150W for 30min to obtain suspension C;

[0081] The application methods of this Fe3O4@COF electrochemical sensor include:
[0082] 1) Prepare a PBS buffer solution with pH=6.5;
[0083] 2) Weigh a certain amount of norfloxacin and dissolve it in ultrapure water, then dilute to a final volume of 10. -12 ~10 -4 Norfloxacin standard solutions with M concentration gradient;
[0084] 3) Weigh a certain amount of potassium ferricyanide and dissolve it in ultrapure water, then make up to a final volume to prepare a 3mM potassium ferricyanide solution;
[0085] 4) Constructing a three-electrode system: Transfer 5 mL of PBS buffer solution to the electrolytic cell and add 1 mL of potassium ferricyanide solution to form the electrolyte; use a glassy carbon electrode modified with Fe3O4@COF composite material as the working electrode, a platinum wire electrode as the counter electrode, and a saturated calomel electrode as the reference electrode; set the working conditions as follows: initial potential of -0.2 V, peak potential of 0.7 V, scan rate of 0.05 V / s, pulse width of 50 ms, and resting time of 2 min.
[0086] 5) Take 10 -12 ~10 -4 M Norfloxacin standard solutions of different concentration gradients were sampled 1 μL 10 times for each concentration, with a sampling interval of 0.1 s.
[0087] 6) The oxidation peak current value under different concentration gradients was detected and recorded by differential pulse voltammetry. The oxidation peak current value I was linearly regressed with the concentration C to obtain the linear regression equation I=kC+b (k and b are constants).

Calculate the concentrations C1, C2, and C3 corresponding to I1, I2, and I3 using a linear regression equation. The average value of C1, C2, and C3 is the concentration of norfloxacin in the sample.
[0089] The following provides further explanation of the testing process for norfloxacin.
[0090] 1. Electron microscopy morphology analysis

[0092] Figure 2a shows the surface morphology of Fe3O4@COF nanoparticles. As can be seen from Figure 2a, the nanoparticles are uniformly distributed spherical particles. These particles are tightly attached to the core surface, creating a relatively regular surface pattern. This uniform distribution of spherical particles not only indicates that the material exhibits good dispersibility, but also reflects its high specific surface area.
[0093] Figure 2b Detailed characterization of the internal structure of Fe3O4@COF nanoparticles was performed, revealing the outer shell structure of the Fe3O4@COF nanoparticles. Figure 2b As can be clearly seen, a distinct core-shell layered structure is visible within the nanoparticles. The core is composed of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles, while the shell is a covalent organic framework. Of particular note is the serrated structure on the shell surface. This unique shape not only increases the material's specific surface area but also provides it with more movable positions, enhancing its ability to contact and react with substrates.
