Resumo

The development of new tools for detecting and monitoring emerging pollutants is highly desired in the environmental field. Here, we report a hybrid multiplexed sensor for colorimetric detection of nitrite (NO2-) and pH, along with simultaneous electrochemical detection of methylparaben (MP) and bisphenol A (BPA) in tap, lake and natural water. Through a portable potentiostat and a smartphone, our device provides relevant environmental parameters within two minutes. The colorimetric sensors were fabricated through spot tests, detecting NO2- at a concentration ranging from 1 to 200 mu mol L-1, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 3.0 mu mol L-1. The electrochemical sensors for MP and BPA were fabricated using the laser-scribed graphene (LSG) technique on a polyamide (PI) substrate. We achieved LODs of 0.22 mu mol L-1 (MP) and 0.057 mu mol L-1 (BPA), ranging from 1 to 100 mu mol L-1 for both, and reproducibility with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 2.5% (MP) and 4.8% (BPA). As a proof-of-concept, our device was tested using real samples of lake, tap and natural water, achieving recoveries from 93% to 120%, demonstrating its suitability for in-field applications for environmental analyses.
