A high-performance fluorescent hybrid material for fluorometric detection and removal of toxic Pb(ii) ions from aqueous media: performance and challenges.

ABSTRACT: Lead(ii) is an extremely toxic heavy metal ion that causes various health problems that are difficult to recover from in many developing countries of the world. Fluorescence-based nanosensors have amazing characteristics such as high sensitivity/selectivity, portability, low detection limit, rapid on-site usability, low cost and capability for removal of heavy metal ions. In this paper, a new fluorescent hybrid material based on silica gel (Bodipy-Si) was developed via a click reaction between alkyne-terminal silica gel and azido-terminal Bodipy. The solid support surface was characterized by various techniques such as SEM, FT-IR, etc. The adsorption and fluorometric properties of the fluorescent nanoparticles were also examined using atomic absorption and fluorescence spectr
