Facile and Green Fabrication of Carrageenan-Silver Nanoparticles for Colorimetric Determination of Cu<sup>2+</sup> and S<sup>2−</sup>

In the present work, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared by a simple and green method using carrageenan as reducing and capping agent. The as-synthesized carrageenan-AgNPs was demonstrated as an effective duel colorimetric sensing for selective and sensitive recognition of Cu<sup>2+<...

description In the present work, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared by a simple and green method using carrageenan as reducing and capping agent. The as-synthesized carrageenan-AgNPs was demonstrated as an effective duel colorimetric sensing for selective and sensitive recognition of Cu<sup>2+</sup> and S<sup>2&#8722;</sup>, which could be used to detect these ions with naked eyes. In addition, the possible sensing mechanism was that Cu<sup>2+</sup> ions caused serious aggregation of carrageenan-AgNPs, which led to the color change of carrageenan-AgNPs. AgNPs were etched by S<sup>2&#8722;</sup> forming Ag<sub>2</sub>S, which played an important role in the determination of S<sup>2&#8722;</sup> ions. Furthermore, it has been successfully applied to the determination of Cu<sup>2+</sup> and S<sup>2&#8722;</sup> in tap water and lake water, showing its great potential for the analysis of environmental water samples.
