Graphene-Rhodamine Nanoprobe for Colorimetric and Fluorimetric Hg2+ Ion Assay

Abstract: This article reveals the first ever prospective application of Graphene-Rhodamine array (GRH) as a colorimetric and fluorimetric sensor for Hg(2+) ions. The duality of Graphene to undergo π-π and dispersive interactions with Rhodamine as well as to act as a selective adsorbent for Hg(2+) is conceptualized in this study. These interactions lead to decrease in absorbance of the dye in the presence of graphene, which is restored when kept in contact with Hg(2+) ions. The feasibility of the mechanism has been prov… Show more

“…So far, studies on Hg 2+ probes have been mainly focused on using uorescence intensity as an identifying signal. [11][12][13][14][15] However, these intensity-based probes have a range of disadvantages because intrinsic and extrinsic factors may affect the measurement of uorescence intensity during the test.…”

“…Practically, an effective sensor should react to a specific analyte at once; otherwise the detection procedure will have error [25]. Therefore, selectivity is a significant parameter to assess the applicability of the sensor [3][4].…”

“…Hg 2+ in the contaminated natural water with its deleterious effect on human health offers the scientific community a challenging task of developing rapid, cost-effective, environmentally friendly, sensitive and selective Hg 2+ detection methods to detect this harmful pollutant in aqueous environment. Therefore, the topic regarding detection of Hg 2+ in aqueous environments has assumed a serious significance in the scientific mind so that its resultant health complications could be avoided [25][26][27].…”

“…But all of these analytical methods are carried out by means of expensive instrument and complicated sample preparation processes in certain cases. Recently, rhodamine [8] and metal nanoparticles [9][10][11] ions using aggregated AuNPs and a DNA-based machine with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10 nM and 1 nM, respectively. [12] This aggregation can trigger a color change from red to blue owing to the interparticle coupled plasmon excitons in the aggregated states.…”
