Abstract

Biogenic amines (BAs), which naturally occur as chemicals in seafood, are indicators of food freshness and quality. High concentrations of BAs can cause an undesirable inflammatory response. However, traditional detection methods cannot meet the needs of rapid analysis nowadays. It is essential to explore a simple and valid method to monitor the food quality. Herein, we design and prepare a nanoclay-based turn on fluorescent material with BAs response, which could be used for the real-time and visual detection of raw fish freshness. As the concentration of BAs increase, the sensor of the fluorescence signal is significantly enhanced. The sensor demonstrated wonderful response and sensitivity which showed a detection limit of 0.935 mg/L for typical BAs histamine within a linear range of 2–14 mg/L in an aqueous solution. More importantly, we developed a responsive BAs device by doping the sensor into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which is well applied as a rapid-responsive fluorescent marker for visual monitoring the freshness of raw fish.
