A simple, low-cost and highly selective nanosensor was developed for naked-eye detection of mercury ions (Hg2+) based on Eosin/silver nanocubes (Eosin/AgNCbs). Silver nanocubes (AgNCbs) were synthesized by polyol assisted chemical method. HR-TEM result shows the formed AgNCbs have a mean diameter of 84±0.005 nM (diagonally measured) and edge length of 55±0.01 nM. XRD result confirms that the AgNCbs are single crystalline in nature with a phase structure of face centered cubic (FCC) of silver. On interaction of Hg2+, AgNCbs exhibits a color change from gray to black up to 16.67 μM of Hg2+ owed to the formation of solid like bimetallic complex of Ag/Hg amalgam. The selectivity of AgNCbs was evaluated with several other toxic metal ions including, Mg2+, Ba2+, Ca4+, Pb2+, Cd4+, Zn2+, Co2+, Cu2+, K+ and Ni2+ and found good selectivity towards Hg2+. The sensitivity of the AgNCbs sensor system was tuned by using Eosin as a co-staining agent. The Eosin/AgNCbs showed a limit of detection of 60±0.050 nM with the color change from orange to purple. The results suggests that the Eosin/AgNCbs nanosensor exhibits good selectivity, sensitivity, repeatability and rapid response, which could be explored for real-time detection of Hg2+ in environmental and biological samples.

A new hydrazone-based colorimetric Cu2+ chemosensor is synthesized. Its structure was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Its binding properties towards various metal ions are examined through absorption spectroscopy. In aqueous THF solution, the chemosensor exhibits selective recognition towards Cu2+ over other metal ions with a colour change from colourless to pink. The complex formed between the chemosensor and Cu2+ ions forms a 2:1 stoichiometry with an association constant of 2.46 × 108M−2. The analytical detection limit for Cu2+ by the naked eye is as low as 10.0 μM.

In this paper, a highly sensitive plasmonic enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (pELISA) was developed for the naked-eye detection of fumonisin B1 (FB1). Glucose oxidase (GOx) was used as an alternative to horseradish peroxidase as the carrier of the competing antigen. GOx catalyzed the oxidation of glucose to produce hydrogen peroxide, which acted as a reducing agent to reduce Au3+ to Au on the surface of gold seeds (5 nm), This reaction led to a color change in the solution from colorless to purple, which was observable to the naked eye. Various parameters that could influence the detection performance of pELISA were investigated. The developed method exhibited a considerably high sensitivity for FB1 qualitative naked-eye detection, with a visible cut-off limit of 1.25 ng/mL. Moreover, the proposed pELISA showed a good linear range of 0.31–10 ng/mL with a half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 1.86 ng/mL, which was approximately 13-fold lower than that of a horseradish peroxidase- (HRP)-based conventional ELISA. Meanwhile, the proposed method was highly specific and accurate. In summary, the new pELISA exhibited acceptable accuracy and precision for sensitive naked-eye detection of FB1 in maize samples and can be applied for the detection of other chemical contaminants.
