A reagent-free phosphate chemiresistive sensor using carbon nanotubes functionalized with crystal violet.
Analyst 2023 July 4
Phosphate is important for plant and animal growth. Therefore, it is commonly added as a fertilizer in agricultural fields. Phosphorus is typically measured using colorimetric or electrochemical sensors. Colorimetric sensors suffer from a limited measuring range and toxic waste generation while electrochemical sensors suffer from long-term drifts due to reference electrodes. Here, we propose a solid-state, reagent-free and reference electrode-free chemiresistive sensor for measuring phosphate using single-walled carbon nanotubes functionalized with crystal violet. The functionalized sensor exhibited a measuring range from 0.1 mM to 10 mM at pH 8. No significant interference was observed for common interfering anions like nitrates, sulphates, and chlorides. This study showed a proof-of-concept chemiresistive sensor, which can potentially be used to measure phosphate levels in hydroponics and aquaponics systems. The dynamic measuring range further needs to be extended for surface water samples.
