Abstract
The quantification of metal ions has applications in medical diagnostics, veterinary screening and environmental monitoring. This chapter describes the development of a holographic metal ion sensor through photopolymerisation. In contrast to the nanoparticles (NPs) in silver halide chemistry, porphyrin molecules were chosen for the construction of metal NP-free holographic sensors. A porphyrin derivative with acrylate groups was synthesised to crosslink 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate monomers. The porphyrin derivative also served as the light-absorbing material and cation chelating agent. A single pulse of a Nd:YAG laser (λ = 532 nm, 6 ns, 350 mJ) in Denisyuk reflection holography mode allowed formation of Bragg diffraction gratings within the porphyrin cross-linked polymer matrix. Holographic sensors had a reversible narrow-band tuneability within the visible spectrum to report on organic solvents in water as a proof of concept, and concentrations of metal cations such as Cu2+ and Fe2+ in aqueous media. The quantification of Cu2+ ions has a potential application in the diagnosis of Wilson’s disease, a genetic disorder in which copper accumulates in the tissues. Similarly, the measurement of Fe2+ ions may help the diagnosis of hemochromatosis, hemolytic anemia, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinemia, and impaired biliary clearance.
