Abstract

A nanosensor based on magnetic core-shell nanoparticles functionalized with rhodamine derivative, N-(3-carboxy)acryloyl rhodamine B hydrazide (RhBCARB), using (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) as a linker, has been synthesized for detection of Cu(II) ions in water. The magnetic nanoparticle and the modified rhodamine were fully characterized, showing a strong orange emission sensitive to Cu(II) ions. The sensor shows a linear response from 10 to 90 & mu;g L-1, detection limit of 3 & mu;g L-1 and no interference of Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Pb (II), Hg(II) and Fe(II) ions. The nanosensor performance is similar to those described in the literature, being a viable option for the determination of Cu(II) ions in natural waters. In addition, the magnetic sensor can be easily removed from the reaction medium with the aid of a magnet and its signal recovered in acidic solution, allowing its reuse in subsequent analysis. (AU)
