腐殖酸表面增强拉曼光谱实验研究

The Investigation of Humic Acid by Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

腐殖酸(简称HA)广泛存在于海洋、河流和土壤中,腐殖酸的研究对于土壤和水系的环境监测具有重要意义。采用银溶胶作为活性基底对腐殖酸的表面增强拉曼光谱(SERS)开展了实验研究,研究了激光照射时间、腐殖酸溶液浓度及pH值变化对腐殖酸溶液表面增强拉曼光谱的影响。结果表明,当激光照射20～30min时腐殖酸SERS信号比较理想;利用不同浓度腐殖酸溶液1 379cm-1拉曼谱峰的强度进行定标分析,腐殖酸SERS信号强度与浓度呈很好的线性关系,线性相关系数R2=0.993;pH值变化对腐殖酸溶液SERS光谱有较大影响,在pH 7的时候信号最弱,而在酸性和碱性环境中信号较强。最后本文还利用表面增强拉曼光谱对自来水中的腐殖酸进行了探测,初步证明了表面增强拉曼光谱应用于自然水体中腐殖酸检测的可行性。

Humic acid （HA）, which are organic compounds widely existing in the oceans, rivers and soil, has important signifi- cance for the environmental monitoring of soil and water. In this paper, ai ming at the problem of Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy （SERS） applying for HA detection in water, the characteristics of the humic acid on silver colloids was studied by means of SERS. The influence of laser irradiation time, HA concentrations and pH value on the surface-enhanced effects of HA were investigated. The experimental results show that the SERS spectra of HA is ideal when the laser irradiation time between 20~30 min. The SERS of different HA concentrations was detected. It was found that the relative intensity at 1 379 cm ~ in- creased as a linear function of the concentration of HA with correlation coefficient Rz of 0. 993. The SERS of HA was found to be very sensitive to pH, the SERS spectra of HA was very weak at neutral pH, but at acidic pH and alkaline pH a remarkable increase of SERS intensity occurred. The SERS of HA in running water was detected too. The experimental results show that it is feasible to detect HA in natural water by means of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.
