Abstract

With a striking increase in the level of contamination and subsequent degradations in the environment, detection and monitoring of contaminants in various sites has become a crucial mission in current society. In this review, we have summarized the current research areas in membrane-based colorimetric sensors for trace detection of various molecules. The researches covered in this summary utilize membranes composed of cellulose fibers as sensing platforms and metal nanoparticles or fluorophores as optical reagents. Displaying decent or excellent sensitivity, most of the developed sensors achieve a significant selectivity in the presence of interfering ions. The physical and chemical properties of cellulose membrane platforms can be customized by changing the synthesis method or type of optical reagent used, allowing a wide range of applications possible. Membrane-based sensors are also portable and have great mechanical properties, which enable on-site detection of contaminants. With such superior qualities, membrane-based sensors examined in the researches were used for versatile purposes including quantification of heavy metals in drinking water, trace detection of toxic antibiotics and heavy metals in environmental water samples. Some of the sensors exhibited additional features like antimicrobial ability and recyclability. Lastly, while most of the sensors aimed for a detection enabled by naked eyes through rapid colour change, many of them investigated further detection methods like fluorescence, UV-vis spectroscopy, and RGB colour intensity.

최근 오염물질 수위의 급격한 상승세와 더불어 가속화되는 자연환경 파괴로 인해 다양한 환경 속에 쌓이는 오염물질의 검출 및 모니터링은 현대 사회의 중요한 미션 중 하나로 자리 잡았다. 본 논문에는 멤브레인 기반의 광학 센서를 활용한 미량 오염물질 검출에 대한 최근 연구 동향이 요약되어 있다. 본 논문에 포함된 연구들은 섬유소로 이루어진 멤브레인을 검출을 위한 플랫폼으로 사용하였으며, 금속 나노 입자나 형광단을 색 변화 검출을 위해 이용하였다. 제조된 광학 센서들은 모두 적절하거나 특출한 수준의 감도를 보였고, 대부분의 센서에서 타겟 물질이 아닌 이온이나 물질에는 반응하지 않는 정확성 또한 확인되었다. 검출 플랫폼으로 이용된 섬유소 멤브레인의 물리적, 화학적 특성들은 멤브레인 합성 방법이나 색 변화를 위한 광학 물질 등을 바꾸는 방법을 통해 각 연구의 목적에 맞추어 최적화될 수 있었다. 또한, 멤브레인을 기반으로 하여 제조된 센서들은 운반이 편리하고 기계적 성질이 강해 현장에서 바로 오염물질을 검출할 수도 있다는 사실이 제시되었다. 이러한 장점 덕분에 멤브레인 기반 센서들은 식용수에서 검출된 중금속의 정량화와 자연 수질환경에서 발견되는 미량 중금속 및 유독성 항생제의 감지 등 다양한 목적을 위해 활용될 수 있었다. 몇몇의 연구에서 제조된 센서들은 항균성이나 재활용성 또한 나타내었다. 대부분의 센서들이 타겟 물질을 감지한 후 육안으로도 식별 가능한 색 변화를 보였으나, 본 논문에 포함된 많은 연구들은 형광 발산, UV-vis 분광학, RGB 색 강도 차이 등을 비교 분석한 더 상세한 검출 결과를 제시하였다.
