Background
Silver and its compounds are widely used in production and life, and excessive silver can seriously harm ecological environment and human health, so it can be used for Ag in environment+Fast and accurateThe detection of (A) has very important significance. Existing Ag+Detection methods such as spectroscopy, fluorescent probe methods, and electrochemical sensors, etc., often require expensive instruments, specialist operations, time-consuming sample pre-treatment processes, or complex design synthesis processes, and are difficult to implement in-situ detection.
The Polydiacetylene (PDA) is a conjugated polymer with special optical properties, and can generate color conversion from blue to red and change from non-fluorescence to fluorescence under the external stimulation, so that the PDA in the blue state is considered as an ideal metal ion sensor material, and the optical change can be conveniently detected in three modes of naked eye identification, ultraviolet visible absorption spectrum and fluorescence spectrum.
In the research field of PDA-based metal ion sensors, most researchers have adopted chemical modification for the purpose of experimental selective detection: a functional molecule (or group) capable of selectively recognizing certain metal ions is connected to the terminal carboxyl of a commercial monomer PCDA (10, 12-pentacosadiynoic acid monomer for short) commonly used in the detection field. When metal ions are added into the system, specific metal ions can be subjected to coordination combination or chemical combination with the terminal group of the PDA side chain, so that the conjugated structure of the PDA is disturbed, and finally the optical property of the PDA is changed, thereby realizing the purpose of metal ion detection. Such as: chinese patent CN110501316A discloses' a polydiacetylene liposome in water environment with Pb2+The visual detection method of (1), reference "Pham, t.c.; kim, y.k.et al.a Selective Colorimetric and Fluorometric chemosensors Based on Conjugated polydiacetates for Cadmium Ion detection 2019,3(11), 1133-.
However, the above method inevitably involves a large amount of organic synthesis, and the reason for analyzing the organic synthesis is mainly as follows:
1) since organic synthesis generally acts on the terminal carboxyl group of the PCDA monomer (structural formula shown below), the functional molecule for recognizing the metal ion should have the ability to selectively bind to the metal ion first and then have reactivity with the terminal carboxyl group of the PCDA monomer. This requires a higher demand for functional molecules, while there are fewer commercial monomers to choose from to meet the above requirements. Therefore, it is common to chemically modify the functional molecule before chemically modifying the PCDA monomer. A large number of organic synthesis processes not only cause harm to human bodies and the environment, but also complicate the method and improve the preparation cost.
2) The procedure for obtaining the polymer PDA from the monomers is as follows, only if the self-assembly of the diacetylene monomers satisfies certain structural parameters (d is aboutAbout 45 deg.C), polymerization can be initiated by conditions such as light; the polymerization reaction has very strict structural parameters for the self-assembled arrangement of monomers. Therefore, even if a functional group is successfully introduced into the PCDA monomer through organic synthesis, the modified monomer may not be self-assembled due to steric hindrance, non-covalent interaction, or the like, or the structural parameters of self-assembly may not meet the requirements of solid-phase polymerization, and if the system cannot be polymerized to obtain stable blue-color PDA, the capability of metal ion detection is lost.
In summary, the development of PDA-based sensors is limited to some extent by the complex organic synthesis.

Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the following figures and specific examples:
example 1
(1) Preparation of PDA vesicle suspension:
weighing 7.5mg of 10, 12-pentacosadiynoic acid, dissolving in 10ml of ethanol to prepare an ethanol solution of 10, 12-pentacosadiynoic acid with the concentration of 2mmol/L, and storing for later use; weighing 50mg of disodium ethylene diamine tetraacetate powder, dissolving the disodium ethylene diamine tetraacetate powder in 100mL of HEPES (20mM, pH 7.4) buffer solution under the condition of heating and stirring, preparing into 1.5mmol/L disodium ethylene diamine tetraacetate aqueous solution, and preserving for later use; slowly and dropwise adding 0.5mL of 10, 12-pentacosadiynoic acid ethanol solution into 10mL of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid aqueous solution at the room temperature of 1000rpm, then placing the obtained colorless suspension in a refrigerator at 4 ℃ for storing in a dark place for 8h, taking out, and irradiating for 5min by using 254nm ultraviolet light (6W, 10cm away from a sample) to obtain blue PDA vesicle suspension; through the scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope photographs in fig. 1, it can be confirmed that the PDA vesicle suspension has a spherical vesicle structure.
Meanwhile, the present invention also uses Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to measure the major phase transition temperature (Tm) of PCDA/EDTA, where Tm represents the transition of lipid chains from a tightly packed phase to a disordered phase. It is known that pure PCDA crystals have a melting point of about 62 ℃ and pure EDTA has a melting point of 248 ℃, and that the addition of EDTA causes a shoulder peak to appear at around 68 ℃ in the endothermic peak of PCDA/EDTA, as shown in FIG. 2. The existence of 68 ℃ shoulder indicates that the introduction of EDTA slightly improves the alignment stability and regularity of PCDA, and also indicates that certain interaction necessarily exists between EDTA and PCDA. The EDTA is mainly present in the form of H in aqueous solutions having a pH of 5 to 92Y2And HY3Since protonated carboxyl groups (-COOH) exist in the molecule, theoretically, in the PCDA/EDTA suspension, there is a possibility that hydrogen bonding interaction is formed between EDTA and PCDA molecules, and PCDA and EDTA molecules are connected through hydrogen bonding interaction, which also improves the alignment regularity of the PCDA vesicles.
The interaction between PDA and EDTA present in the suspension can also be demonstrated by FT-IR spectroscopy, as shown in figure 3. Characteristic absorption peak of EDTA-2Na in spectrum is 1640cm-1And 1400cm-1. The characteristic absorption peak in the spectrum of PCDA is 1698cm-1To (3). Whereas the spectrum of the PDA/EDTA after addition of EDTA was at 1647cm-1New characteristic peaks appear. The protonated carboxyl of EDTA and the carboxyl at the end of PDA form hydrogen bond interaction, which results in the shift of carbonyl absorption peak, and the research result of DSCThis inference is also validated sideways. Meanwhile, the spectrum of the PDA/EDTA still has a characteristic absorption peak of EDTA-2Na, which indicates that part of EDTA-2Na still exists in a free form in the system.
