Description

Method for detecting micro-plastics in fish body
Technical Field

However, the plastic particles are not degraded by the natural environment but remain in the environment, and according to the current research, the sea is the sink of micro-plastics, and a large amount of micro-plastics are finally gathered into the sea. The micro-plastic with small size is easily swallowed by marine organisms and is transmitted through a food chain, so that the ecological environment is adversely affected.

Examples
1. Experimental materials and instruments and equipment
1.1 Plastic samples
1) The larger size (4 mm. Times.4 mm. Times.3 mm) 10 types (ABS, AS, HDPE, HIPS, LDPE, PA, PE, PET, PP and PS) were screened from plastics commonly found in life and standard products were purchased.
2) Small size (60-500 μm) in the temperature controlled below 40 deg.C, using a pulverizer to pulverize millimeter plastic particles, and classifying the pulverized sample into different particle size groups through metal mesh gaps with aperture of 500 μm, 200 μm, 100 μm, and 60 μm.
1.2 Fish body samples
The fish samples were obtained from yellow sea in Shandong province or purchased in the market. The characteristics of the digestive tract (lipid characteristics, thickness) of each fish are different; in addition, the types and degree of digestion of intestinal contents vary greatly depending on the eating habits. In the early testing stage, we found that the digestion effect was very different even though we used the same experimental protocol due to the above differences. To eliminate errors as much as possible, the tissues used in this study were derived from a mixture of all fish gut and stored at-20 ℃.

Results of the experiment
1. Experimental results with a single reagent
Step (ii) of
Note that: in order to prevent the pollution to the experimental sample, cotton experiment clothes, nitrile gloves and a mask are worn in the whole experimental process, all glassware is washed for 3 times by using ultrapure water, and all operations are carried out in a fume hood. Digestion reagents of each concentration in the study comprise 3 groups of parallel experiments, so that errors caused by different samples and temperatures are avoided. The beaker was sealed with tin foil paper and left at room temperature for 12 hours, and the experimental phenomenon was observed
1) Taking one plastic particle, cutting a cross nick at the center of the plastic by using a scalpel, washing for 3 times by using deionized water, and air-drying for later use
2) 3.0g of fish sample is weighed by a balance and placed in a 200mL beaker, 60mL of deionized water is added, and after photographing and recording the initial state of the sample, excessive water is drained.
3) After 60mL of digestive reagent is added into the beaker (mixed or added in several times), the mouth of the beaker is sealed by tinfoil paper to prevent impurities from entering, and after the beaker is kept stand for 12 hours, a picture is taken to record the digestive effect.
3) The mixture in the beaker is made to pass through a nitrocellulose membrane with the aperture of 5 mu m by a suction filter, then the filter membrane is taken down, plastic particles are clamped by tweezers, the mixture is washed and dried by a dryer to constant weight, and the surface morphology is observed by naked eyes.
Nitric acid alone
(1) Description of phenomena
Under the action of high concentration of nitric acid, the digestive juice is clear and transparent, however all kinds of plastics are affected, wherein PA disappears and ABS melts. The rest kinds of plastics become soft to different degrees. With the decrease of the concentration, the digestion effect and the corrosion effect on the fish body are gradually weakened, but the morphological change of PA is not ignored. No macroscopic change of the PA occurred until the nitric acid concentration dropped below 12%. However, the digestion effect of the fish is general and the residual quantity is large.
(2) Conclusion
The high-concentration nitric acid has obvious corrosion to plastic particles, wherein PA changes most severely, and the digestion effect of the fish body is good; from the surface characteristics observed by naked eyes, the low concentration of nitric acid has no influence on plastic particles basically, but the fish digestion effect is poor, and the improvement is suggested.
Independent action of hydrogen peroxide
(1) Description of phenomena
We have studied the effect of hydrogen peroxide in 8 groups of concentrations, and the concentrations of 30% and 24% have better effect on fish digestion. The effect then diminishes as the concentration decreases. None of the concentrations produced macroscopic corrosion of the plastic.
(2) Conclusion
The results of this study showed that different concentrations of H 2 O 2 The use of the solution has certain application prospect and almost no harmful effect on plastics. The results of the hydrogen peroxide treatment are relatively mild compared to the acid treatment. High concentrations of hydrogen peroxide have a certain effect on the digestion of fish tissue. But low concentration of H 2 O 2 Has poor digestion effect on fish tissues, particularly on digestive tracts. Thus, H 2 O 2 The use of micro-plastics as digestive juices from fish tissue is limited and improvements have been suggested.
2. Reagent combination experiment
Due to digestive agent (HNO) 3 And H 2 O 2 ) When added alone, the digestive effect is not very desirable while maintaining retention of the plastic. According to the experimental result under a single condition, the nitric acid digestion effect is better, but the corrosion to plastics is stronger, and 11.5 percent of nitric acid does not influence the plastics, so 11.5 percent of nitric acid and H are selected 2 O 2 Combinatorial experiments were performed and further studies were continued.
Research on direct mixing ratio effect of 11.5% nitric acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide
(1) Description of phenomena
11.5% of HNO in FIGS. 1 and 2, respectively 3 And 30% of H 2 O 2 Experimental figures before and after direct mixing digestion. Wherein the reagents in the a-h pictures are respectively 11.5% HNO 3 :30%H 2 O 2 1, 2.
After the mixture of the 11.5 percent nitric acid and the 30 percent hydrogen peroxide is mixed, the digestion effect on fish bodies is not improved compared with that of a single reagent, and in a mixed system with all the proportions, the digestion effect is reduced along with the reduction of the proportion of the nitric acid.
(2) Conclusion
Compared with a single digestion scheme, the method has the advantage that the addition of nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide at the same time is not obviously improved. We speculate that this may be due to HNO 3 And H 2 O 2 A chemical reaction takes place, after the reaction H 2 O 2 Or HNO 3 May be reduced, resulting in a poor digestion of the tissue. Therefore, the next verification is performed.
11.5% nitric acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide were added in portions
(1) Description of phenomena
FIGS. 3 and 4 are graphs of the digestion effect before and after digestion with batch additions of 11.5% nitric acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide, respectively, and a-h graphs representing the content of HNO at 11.5% 3 With 30% of H 2 O 2 Digestion in the batch addition protocol of volume ratio =1, 2.
The 11.5 percent nitric acid and the 30 percent hydrogen peroxide are added in sequence, the digestion effect is obviously better than that of a single reagent and a mixed solution with a corresponding proportion, and the plastic is not influenced. The effect improves with increasing hydrogen peroxide ratio. But as the nitric acid ratio decreases, the digestion effect decreases, when 11.5% HNO 3 And 30% of H 2 O 2 The ratio is 2.
(2) Conclusion
Two reagents are selected to be added in batches, after the hydrogen peroxide is digested, the residual hydrogen peroxide is removed by utilizing the catalysis of sodium hydroxide and ferrous sulfate solution, and then 11.5% nitric acid is added into the system to further digest the fish body tissue, so that the digestion capacity is improved.
Adding sodium hydroxide and Fe 2+ Then the reaction is violent, a large amount of bubbles are generated to float on the liquid surface,after standing for a few minutes, the bubbles disappeared. The digestion result is slightly better than that of single H 2 O 2 Solution, probably due to NaOH and Fe 2+ A catalyzed reaction. The experimental results show that the reaction is carried out by NaOH and Fe 2+ After the action, HNO is added again 3 The digestion effect is obviously better than that of directly adding HNO 3 The digestion experiment group, namely the digestion effect of adding the catalytic system is obviously better than that of directly adding HNO 3 Digestion experimental group. Also, the optimized reagent combination still has no effect on plastics.
3. Plan optimization
3.1 background
Because fat is difficult to remove, the filtration speed is slowed down during filtration, the observation of the plastic is influenced by the existence of grease, and the subsequent identification and identification of the plastic are not facilitated, the removal by adopting a surfactant (such as sodium dodecyl sulfate) is considered, and in order to ensure full mixing, an ultrasonic method is provided for assistance.
3.2 conclusion
The results show that the use of the surfactant alone has a limited effect on grease removal with ultrasound alone. When the surfactant and the ultrasonic method are combined, the grease is well removed. The lipid-containing matter in the digestive tract is put into a beaker, and in the process of observation and treatment, the lipid is gradually dispersed, the volume is reduced, and the foam of a reaction system is increased. After about 40min, the state of the substance had hardly changed. After standing for 6h, the amount of foam was reduced and the lipid particles were no longer increased. Therefore, the optimized method of fat is determined to be that after all the inorganic reagents are acted, saturated sodium dodecyl sulfate solution is added into a beaker, and the ultrasound is carried out for 1h after the foam quantity is reduced.
4. Determination of digestion protocols
In conclusion, the optimal binary system digestion scheme is as follows: at the beginning of the tissue digestion process, 30% H was added to the beaker 2 O 2 Standing for 1h; then 0.5M NaOH and 0.005M Fe were added 2+ Standing for 4h; final addition of 11.5% HNO 3 Put into a beaker and stand for 6 hours. 150g/L SDS solution was added further, followed by sonication for 1h.
Step (ii) of
1) A3.0 g fish sample was weighed using a balance and placed in a 200mL beaker.
2) Adding 20mL of 30% H 2 O 2 And standing for 1h.
3) To the beaker were added 10mL of 0.5M NaOH solution and 1mL of 0.005M FeSO 4 The solution was allowed to stand for 4h.
4) Adding 40mL11.5% HNO to the beaker 3 And standing for 6 hours.
5) Measuring 20ml,150g/L sodium dodecyl sulfate, adding into a beaker, and after the foam disappears, carrying out ultrasonic treatment for 1h at the temperature of 30 ℃.
The flow chart is shown in figure 5.
5. Scheme verification
(1) Morphological contrast
1) Before the optimal digestion scheme is used for digestion, a Raman spectrometer is used for carrying out microscopic shooting and spectrogram test on scored plastics (the optimal test parameters of various plastics are determined in the pre-experiment process);
2) After the optimal digestion scheme, the plastic particles are taken out of the beaker, washed 3 times with deionized water to remove impurities attached to the surface, dried to constant weight at normal temperature, and the plastic sample is scanned again under the same parameter setting.
(2) Conclusion
The test results are shown in fig. 6-25, and the change of the circumference of the cross mark on the surfaces of 10 plastic particles is not obvious by comparing before and after digestion. The 10 plastics have no great difference in peak position before and after reaction, and the plastic spectrogram after digestion has strong identifiability. Indicating that the digestive reagent has no significant effect on the molecular structure of the plastic.
4.3 recovery validation
(1) The experimental steps are as follows:
1) The plastic particles are crushed by a crusher under the condition that the temperature is controlled to be lower than 40 ℃, and the crushed mixed sample is divided into three particle size intervals of 60-100 mu m, 100-200 mu m and 200-500 mu m by a metal sieve with the aperture of 500 mu m, 200 mu m, 100 mu m and 60 mu m.
2) For each plastic, 30 granules per size interval were picked up by means of a microscope and placed in a beaker and digested according to a defined optimal protocol.
3) After suction filtration, the filter was removed, the particles were visually identified by microscopy and the values recorded.
4) Recovery = number of particles after digestion/number of particles before digestion × 100%.
(2) Conclusion
The results are shown in FIGS. 26-28, and the recovery rates for 10 plastic particles were between 80% and 120% for particle size studies greater than 60 μm. The digestion scheme adopted by the experiment has little influence on the recovery rate of the micro-plastic, and can be used for detecting environmental samples at present.
