Towards Smart Selective Sensors exploiting a novel approach to connect Optical Fiber Biosensors in Internet
摘要： The selective detection of pollutants in water in a laboratory scenario has been presented by authors exploiting low-cost optical biosensors based on plastic optical fibers (POFs) and biological or bio-mimetic receptors. For instance, the detection in water of naphthalene, perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAs) have been investigated with interesting detection limits when compared to those obtained by using different expensive traditional approaches (e.g. liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry with high performances). In this work, we have developed and tested a novel approach used in a smart measuring system to use POF sensors in situ for the remote measures of pollutants in water for smart cities applications. More specifically, we have used different water-glycerin solutions to test the novel sensor system based on a Raspberry PI connected to the Internet and to a spectrometer, a light source, a POF sensor, and two computers connected to Internet used as client and server.

Sensing of Furfural by Molecularly Imprinted Polymers on Plasmonic and Electrochemical Platforms
摘要： The goal of this work is to test the possibility of selective detection of furfural (2-FAL) in aqueous solutions, with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) receptor exploiting two different transduction methods, for food safety applications. In particular, sensors with electrochemical and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) transduction are considered. Two concentration ranges could be investigated by the different sensing approaches since the detectable concentration level depends on the sensitivity of the detection technique employed. The determination of 2-FAL at different concentration levels in the aqueous medium of interest, as for example beverages, is becoming a very crucial task not only for the relevance of furanic compounds in affecting the flavor but also for their possible toxic and carcinogenic effects on the human beings. For these reasons, their determination by a fast, easy and low-cost method is of interest. The sensor methods here proposed appears to be particularly suitable, since, although together and not individually, they allow the determination in a wide concentration range.

The Influence of Structural Parameters on the Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor Based on a Side-polished Macrobending Plastic Optical Fiber
摘要： In this paper the influences of the structured parameters, namely, metal layer thickness, polished depth, macrobending radius and polished angle on the refractive index sensing performances for the side-polished macrobending plastic optical fibers (POFs) based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors were investigated. A simple and controllable rotary grinding technique was introduced to fabricate the proposed sensor. The performances of sensitivity, resolution and full width at half maximum (FWHM) were evaluated. The results have demonstrated that the SPR sensor performances could be improved by changing the structural parameters, and the highest sensitivity obtained was 4793.1 nm/RIU when the external refractive index was 1.410. The proposed POFs based SPR sensors are easy fabrication, robust, and compact in size, which are useful for chemical and biological sensing.

The case of PFBS detection
摘要： The detection of perfluorobutanesulfonic acid (PFBS) in water is presented for the first time exploiting a low-cost optical chemical sensing strategy, based on plastic optical fibers and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), able to detect pollutants in water. The sensor's response measured in this work for the detection of PFBS is similar to the one obtained with Perfluorooctanesulfonate and investigated. The detection limit of PFBS is considered of interest when compared to those obtained by using different expensive traditional approaches, e.g. high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). Moreover, the use of this sensing approach is a very attractive perspective for fast, in situ, and remote low-cost detection of pollutants in water for smart cities applications.
