Abstract
Detection and removal of heavy metal ions in a variety of complex water systems using dyes remains a challenge. Here we have developed a rapid, low-cost, on-site water-soluble dye for the colorimetric/fluorogenic detection and removal of copper ions in natural water and plant samples. By comparing with dye molecule AHP, this water-soluble phenazine dye (AHPN) has a high fluorescence quantum yield and excellent coordinated ability with copper ions. AHPN can effectively remove copper ions in various natural water samples due to its strong binding ability with Cu2+. Moreover, the test strips also were fabricated and successfully used for real-time detection of Cu2+ in water with simple-to-use, low-cost, quick response and provide an obvious effect by naked-eye. All data in this experiment showed that this water-soluble phenazine dye AHPN has excellent effect on the detection and removal of Cu2+.
