Abstract
Herein, an affordable and simple analytical device is presented to portable identify of garlic in 30 min; the evaluation needs no pre-treatment of sample. The analytical device fabrication was did employing a headspace-based nanosensor array using of inexpensive materials as commercial filter discs, quantum dots (QDs), and metallic nanoparticles (MNPs). The nanoarray is fabricated by the accumulation QDs on MNPs surface, that results in the production of ensembles of QDs/MNPs. The ensembles generate diverse colorimetric profiles as “fingerprints” regarding to each garlic sample. The volatile organosulfur compounds (OSCs) of garlic can prefer binding to the MNPs comparing with QDs. The color profiles can be displayed with a smartphone camera, which can be quantitatively distinguished by chemometrics approaches. The analytical device was used to assessment of fake pickled samples in balsamic vinegar. This device proves well potential for qualitative control of garlic.
