“…Mercury is a ubiquitous heavy-metal pollutant in the environment and poses serious ecological and human-health risks, − and mercury contamination of water resources is a major risk driver. − In many regions of the world, concentrations of mercury in surface water or groundwater are hundreds of times higher than the World Health Organization (WHO) Guideline of 0.006 mg/L. ,,, This poses direct threats to the population relying on these waters as the source of drinking water. Additionally, irrigation using mercury-impacted water induces significant risks due to the microbial production of methylmercury, a highly potent neurotoxin that is bioaccumulative through the food chain.…”

Mercury is a ubiquitous heavy-metal pollutant and poses serious ecological and human-health risks. There is an ever-growing demand for rapid, sensitive, and selective detection of mercury in natural waters, particularly for regions lacking infrastructure specialized for mercury analysis. Here, we show that a sensor based on multi-emission carbon dots (M-CDs) exhibits ultrahigh sensing selectivity toward Hg(II) in complex environmental matrices, tested in the presence of a range of environmentally relevant metal/metalloid ions as well as natural and artificial ligands, using various real water samples. By incorporating structural features of calcein and folic acid that enable tunable emissions, the M-CDs couple an emission enhancement at 432 nm and a simultaneous reduction at 521 nm, with the intensity ratio linearly related to the Hg(II) concentration up to 1200 μg/L, independent of matrix compositions. The M-CDs have a detection limit of 5.6 μg/L, a response time of 1 min, and a spike recovery of 94 ± 3.7%. The intensified emission is attributed to proton transfer and aggregation-induced emission enhancement, whereas the quenching is due to proton and electron transfer. These findings also have important implications for mercury identification in other complex matrices for routine, screening-level food safety and health management practices.

Groundwater is a precious resource for irrigating the crops in developing countries. This research was governed in Faisalabad District of Pakistan to assess the groundwater strata using GIS cum geoelectric resistivity method approach. The IX1D computer model was used to obtain true soil layers’ resistivities and thicknesses for each VES point based on apparent resistivity data collected by Resistivity meter using Schlumberger electrode array setting. Geo-hydraulic parameters (hydraulic conductivity, transmissivity, and porosity) were also calculated based on modeling results (soil layers resistivities and thicknesses). Interpolation (inverse distance weighted) method in ArcGIS Pro was used for mapping the soil aquifer layers resistivities/thicknesses and geo-hydraulic parameters. Transmissivity, Porosity, and hydraulic conductivity values ranged from 365.46 to 1888.503 m2/day, 31.84 to 39.72% and 4.05 to 15.27 m/day for all surveys respectively. Based on these results, aquifer layers with thicknesses 30 to 103.5 m, were distinguished as comprised of saline to low marginal quality (fine sand and clay formation), marginal to fresh quality (fine sand and gravel formation) and fresh quality groundwater (coarse sand and gravel formation).
