Toplam 131 atıf DOI
Cyanide is potentially hazardous and quickly acting chemical used in many fields of industry. Therefore, detection of cyanide is of main health concern due to its serious impacts on living organisms. In this context, we have developed rapid, low-cost and on-site sensory two molecules for the colorimetric and fluorogenic sensing of cyanide ion in aqueous samples and food samples. The prepared probes undergo distinct visual color change and exhibits selective fluorogenic turn-on or turn-off response towards cyanide. Competing anions have little or negligible effect on the detection of cyanide. The limit of detection for cyanide ion was calculated as low as 0.45 μM. Free receptors could be successfully regenerated by treating them with Ag+ ion. Moreover, a new visual colorimetric strip based on paper was fabricated with the pale yellow-to-pink color change signal. The fabricated test strips also demonstrated excellent selectivity towards cyanide ion without interfering possible fluoride and acetate ions. The smartphone-based technique which could directly read out the color value using a smartphone revealed an excellent potential for the cyanide detection without additional device.

Thiophenol (PhSH), which is widely used in many industries, poses significant health risks owing to its acute toxicity and irritating effects. Thus, the detection of PhSH is crucial for ensuring environmental and food safety. There is significant room for improvement in the sensing properties of the reported analytical methods, such as response time, detection limit, selectivity, and portable detection. Herein, we present two new red/blue fluorescence-emissive sensors (NS1 and NS2) for PhSH detection. After reacting with PhSH, NS1 exhibited a low detection limit (66.7 nM), red emission, fast response time of just 10 s, and large Stokes shift (240 nm). NS2 could detect PhSH with a low detection limit (75.8 nM), fast response time of 20 s, and blue emission. The noticeable color response and portability of the two probes made them suitable for on-site detection of PhSH in various samples, such as water, soil, plant, food samples, and living cells. Moreover, it has been shown that these probes could be used to determine PhSH content in smartphone applications, thin layer chromatography kits, and polysulfone capsule kits. Prepared probes have low cytotoxicity and show good permeability in tested living cells, which is important for early diagnosis, disease research, and emergency analysis. Compared with other studies, the proposed approach has remarkable advantages in terms of detection limit, portability, response time, and low cytotoxicity. Thus, it meets the crucial demand for ensuring health, environmental and food safety, and adherence to regulatory standards.
