A smart sensor for rapid detection of lethal hydrazine in human blood and drinking water

18 Feb 2019-New Journal of Chemistry (The Royal Society of Chemistry)-Vol. 43, Iss: 8, pp 3303-3308
TL;DR: In this article, the naked eye detection of hydrazine below the TLV levels, in living cells, drinking water and industrial effluents, has been demonstrated, showing good cell permeability, low cytotoxicity, fast fluorogenic recognition and good selectivity over several cation-, anion-, thiol and amine-containing compounds.
Abstract: Hydrazine exposure leads to damage of all vital organs of humans and animals, which demands the discovery of a method for the rapid and quantitative detection of hydrazine. Newly designed and synthesized receptor-bearing phenolic –OH, –Br, –CN, –ester and benzthiazole moieties displayed brilliant naked eye fluorescence sensing towards hydrazine with rapid reactivity and very good selectivity over several cation-, anion-, thiol- and amine-containing compounds. The probe showed good cell permeability, low cytotoxicity, fast fluorogenic recognition and “naked eye” detection of hydrazine below the TLV levels, in living cells, drinking water and industrial effluents.

TL;DR: In this article, a new "turn-on" fluorescence probe, coumarin-thiophene (C-T), was designed based on PET (photo-induced electron transfer) mechanism by employing 5-chlorothiophene-2-carbonyl chloride as a electron donor and coumarins as an electron acceptor.

TL;DR: Alanine levels were observed in all tissues indicative of a general inhibition of alanine transaminase activity and NMR spectral profiles of treated rats appeared similar to those of matched controls for all tissue types indicative of recovery from toxic insult.
Abstract: Hydrazine is a model toxin that induces both hepatotoxic and neurotoxic effects in experimental animals. The direct biochemical effects of hydrazine in kidney, liver, and brain tissue were assessed in male Sprague−Dawley rats using magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. A single dose of hydrazine (90 mg/kg) resulted in changes to the biochemical composition of the liver after 24 h including an increase in triglycerides and β-alanine, together with a decrease in hepatic glycogen, glucose, choline, taurine, and trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO). From histopathology measurements of liver tissue, minimal to mild hepatocyte alteration was observed in all animals at 24 h. The NMR spectra of the renal cortex at 24 h after dosing were dominated by a marked increase in the tissue concentration of 2-aminoadipate (2-AA) and β-alanine, concomitant with depletions in TMAO, myo-inositol, choline, taurine, glutamate, and lysine. No alteration to the NMR spectral profile of the substantia nigra w...

TL;DR: A cross-sectional study evaluating the most common rocket fuels such as hydrazine; 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH); mono-methylhydrazines (MMH); and Aerozine-50 against the most commonly suggested therapies is needed to clarify the treatment implications for human exposure.
Abstract: Exposure to hydrazine and hydrazines' alkylated derivatives is an important occupational health issue, which will increase in significance as space applications increase. Despite their widespread usage as rocket fuels in manned and unmanned space and missile systems, serious exposures to hydrazines are rare. While a significant number of experimental studies were performed in the late 1950s through the mid-1960s, conflicting information exists concerning the most appropriate treatment for these exposures. A cross-sectional study evaluating the most common rocket fuels such as hydrazine; 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH); mono-methylhydrazine (MMH); and Aerozine-50 against the most commonly suggested therapies, such as pyridoxine, traditional antiseizure therapies, and arginine is needed to clarify the treatment implications for human exposure. Treatments that have been useful for hyperammonemic states, such as those for the six inherited urea cycle defects, have significant potential for the improvement of hydrazine exposure treatment.
