Abstract

Fish freshness is closely related to food safety and human health. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a rapid, simple, non-destructive and intuitive fish freshness detection method. Herein, an “OFF-ON” fluorescent probe was successfully synthesized by using thiophenealdehyde and 2,4-thiazolidinedione through Knoevenagel condensation. The probehad dual recognition capability of colorimetric and fluorescence for amines in solution, with high sensitivity (1.20 μmol/L) and fast response speed (3 s). The prepared probe-loaded indicator label exhibited dual-channel response to the salmon freshness, with the daylight color changing from orange to earth-yellow and the fluorescence shifting from bright orange to flesh pink. By utilizing smartphone software and the indicator label, an intelligent integrated detection platform was constructed, which could automatically output the total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) value of salmon. Under room temperature condition, its accuracy and reliability were confirmed by the Chinese national standard method. This study is expected to provide new ideas for the field of portable intelligent detection and offer a smart detection tool to merchants and consumers for assessing fish freshness.

Key words: fluorescent probe, indicator label, intelligent integrated platform, freshness
