Abstract
The green chemistry approach was unitized for the development of fluorescent nanomaterial. The objective of this study is to develop plant-based fluorescence nanomaterials via environment-friendly and biocompatible approach. Here, water-soluble yellow emissive gold nanoclusters were synthesized by using extract of Senna auriculata leaves and 1.25 mM of HAuCl4·xH2O via microwave-assisted method. Senna auriculata-AuNCs (S. auriculata-AuNCs) exhibit excellent solubility, good quantum yield (QY), stability, and biocompatibility. The ultra-small (<5 nm) size of S. auriculata-AuNCs displayed yellow emission and were characterized by using fluorescence, UV–visible, FT-IR, HR-TEM, zeta potential, DLS, XPS, and XRD techniques. S. auriculata-AuNCs display an intense emission of 620 nm when excited at 500 nm. The as-synthesized S. auriculata-AuNCs act as an effective sensor for sensing glyphosate pesticide via the “turn-off” mechanism. Moreover, S. auriculata-AuNCs showed a good performance in detecting glyphosate with a wider linear range from 0.05 to 100 µM, offering the detection limit of 32.0 nM for glyphosate. Additionally, S. auriculata-AuNCs are also able to visualize Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, and successfully applied in assaying glyphosate pesticide in apple, rice, river, and canal water samples.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Nanotechnology, Monitoring and Management is a journal devoted to the publication of peer reviewed original research on environmental nanotechnologies, monitoring studies and management for water, soil , waste and human health samples. Critical review articles, short communications and scientific policy briefs are also welcome. The journal will include all environmental matrices except air. Nanomaterials were suggested as efficient cost-effective and environmental friendly alternative to existing treatment materials, from the standpoints of both resource conservation and environmental remediation. The journal aims to receive papers in the field of nanotechnology covering; Developments of new nanosorbents for: •Groundwater, drinking water and wastewater treatment •Remediation of contaminated sites •Assessment of novel nanotechnologies including sustainability and life cycle implications Monitoring and Management papers should cover the fields of: •Novel analytical methods applied to environmental and health samples •Fate and transport of pollutants in the environment •Case studies covering environmental monitoring and public health •Water and soil prevention and legislation •Industrial and hazardous waste- legislation, characterisation, management practices, minimization, treatment and disposal •Environmental management and remediation
