A new method for Cr(VI) (0.025–8.00 mg/L) determination based on the reaction of Cr(VI) and 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) in aqueous solutions was developed. The colorless ABTS reacted with Cr(VI) under strong acidic conditions ([H + ] = 3.0 or 6.0 M) producing a stable colored radical ABTS + , which could be measured spectrophotometrically at 415, 649 or 732 nm. The absorbance increase at these three wavelengths for ABTS + generation were all linear (less than 1.0% deviation) with respect to the amount of added Cr(VI) and the sensitivity were 1.099 × 10 5 , 3.720 × 10 4 , and 4.150 × 10 4 M −1 cm −1 of added Cr(VI) at 415, 649 or 732 nm, respectively. Cr(VI) of 0.025 mg/L below the discharge standard of drinking water could be detected with the method quantitatively and 0.002 mg/L Cr(VI) was determined qualitatively. The molar absorptivity of ABTS + generated was determined to be (3.69 ± 0.01) × 10 4 M −1 cm −1 at 415 nm and the reaction between Cr(VI) and ABTS had a stoichiometric factor of 1:3 in excess of ABTS. The absorbance of generated ABTS + was found to be stable in deionized water or wastewater and Cr(VI) spiked in wastewater could be determined accurately. The ABTS method also had a good anti-interference performance against Co(II) ions. Moreover, the ABTS method could be successfully used in the Cr(VI)-S(IV) system for Cr(VI) determination.

The activation of peroxydisulfate (PDS) by organic compounds has attracted increasing attention. However, some inherent drawbacks including quick activator decomposition and poor anti-interference capacity limited the application of organic compound-activated PDS. It was interestingly found that 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) could act as both activator and electron shuttle for PDS activation to enhance diclofenac (DCF) degradation over a pH range of 2.0–11.0. Multiple reactive species of ABTS•+, •OH, and SO4•– were generated in the PDS/ABTS system, while only ABTS•+ and •OH directly contributed to DCF degradation. ABTS•+, generated via the reactions of ABTS with PDS, SO4•–, and •OH, was the dominant reactive species of DCF degradation. No significant decomposition of ABTS was observed in the PDS/ABTS system, and ABTS acted as both activator and electron shuttle. Four possible degradation pathways of DCF were proposed, and the toxicity of DCF decreased after treatment with the PDS/ABTS system. The PDS/ABTS system had good anti-interference capacity to common natural water constituents. Additionally, ABTS was encapsulated into cellulose to obtain ABTS@Ce beads, and the PDS/ABTS@Ce system possessed excellent performance on DCF degradation. This study proposes a new perspective to reconsider the mechanism of activating PDS with organic compounds and highlights the considerable contribution of organic radicals on contaminant removal.

Chlorination, one of the most common oxidation strategies, performed limited degradation capacity towards many emerging organic contaminants under neutral pH conditions. In this study, 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonate (ABTS) was discovered to possess an outstanding activation property towards free available chlorine (FAC) during the chlorination of diclofenac (DCF) among pH 6.0–9.5. ABTS radical (ABTS •+ ) primarily accounted for the elimination of DCF in the ABTS/FAC system, although hydroxyl radicals , reactive chlorine species, and singlet oxygen were also generated via the self-decomposition of FAC. ABTS acted as the electron shuttle to degrade DCF in the ABTS/FAC system, where ABTS was firstly oxidized by FAC to ABTS •+ via single electron transfer , and followed by the elimination of DCF with the generated ABTS •+ . Eight DCF degradation intermediates were identified by LC/Q-TOF/MS, and four DCF degradation pathways were proposed. Real water bodies, humic acid , and the coexistent anions of Cl − , HCO 3 − , NO 3 − , and SO 4 2− performed negligible influence on DCF removal in ABTS/FAC system. ABTS/FAC system was much superior to sole chlorination in terms of toxicity reduction and anti-interference capacity. Overall, this study innovatively introduced ABTS as the electron shuttle to enhance the oxidative capacity of FAC under neutral pH conditions and provided a new insight that the ABTS-like organic/synthetic components might play an important role in degrading emerging organic contaminants by chlorination in water treatment .

Propolis, a well-known folk medicine in the world, has drawn growing attention due to the various bioactivities. An on-line method of coupling HPLC with 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) cationic radical scavenging detection (HPLC–ABTS) was developed to screen the single polyphenol possessing ABTS cationic radical scavenging activity in ethanol extracts of Chinese propolis (EECP). Ten common polyphenols were selected from the active fingerprints of ten EECP samples obtained from different provinces of China by the on-line HPLC–ABTS method and quantified by Trolox equivalent. Their contributions to the antioxidant property of EECP were compared. Furthermore, Pearson’s correlation analysis was applied to determine whether there was a correlation between the antioxidant activity of individual polyphenol and total antioxidant activity of EECP. The results indicated that the composition of polyphenols in ten EECP samples obtained from China was similar. But the different polyphenols contributed in different way. Caffeic acid, kaempferol, and galangin simultaneously were the most prominent contributors to the antioxidant properties of ten EECP. The contributions of pinobanksin 3-acetate, caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), and caffeic acid cinnamyl ester varied largely with the different geographical regions. They, except galangin, significantly correlated with the antioxidant property of propolis. However, pinobanksin, pinocembrin, chrysin, p -coumaric acid, and ferulic acid rarely contributed to the antioxidant property of Chinese propolis. Therefore, the on-line HPLC–ABTS method was convenient, effective, and comprehensive to evaluate the contributions of polyphenols to the antioxidant property for Chinese propolis.

2,2′-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt radical cation (ABTS•+) is a stable free radical frequently used for estimating the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of natural products. The existing methods for ABTS•+ radical-scavenging activity assays are diverse in pre-diluting solvents and reaction time, which lead to errors in the TAC estimations. To develop an effective and universal method for estimating the ABTS•+ capacity accurately and reasonably, five pre-dilution solvents [methanol, ethanol, phosphate buffer (Na2HPO4-NaH2PO4, 200 mM, pH = 7.4), PBS buffer (Na2HPO4-NaH2PO4-NaCl, 200 mM, pH = 7.4), and distilled water] and different reaction times were investigated in ABTS•+ assays of five typical antioxidants. The results showed that the solvent effects were very significant. When using different pre-diluting solvents, different detection wavelengths should be selected. ABTS-+ assay could be measured within 2–10 min to obtain a rough result, which was mostly 6 min in the literature. However, full and accurate evaluation of antioxidant reactivity rather than capacity requires recording ABTS•+ loss continuously during the whole reaction period. The present study makes a recommendation for estimating the ABTS•+ capacity accurately and reasonably.

Colorimetric methods using 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) as a chromogenic reagent are widely used for oxidant detection in water samples. However, the coexisting natural organic matter, especially those having phenolic hydroxyl groups, can consume the formed ABTS·+ radical, leading to a reduced measured concentration using the ABTS method. Using phenols as model substances, the rate constants between ABTS·+ and deprotonated phenols could reach as high as 107∼109 M–1 s–1, approximately 4–6 orders of magnitude higher than those with protonated phenols. These reaction rates could decrease with an increase in ABTS concentration. Lowering the chromogenic pH and increasing the initial ABTS concentration can reduce the consumption of ABTS·+ by matrix components, but does not fully eliminate the reductive interference caused by para- or ortho-phenolic hydroxyl groups. Similar measurement deviations of the ABTS method were also observed during the analysis of real water samples. Relatively, utilizing 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine as the chromogenic reagent, the TMB method exhibits stronger anti-interference performance toward matrix components in both synthetic solutions and natural waters, making it suitable for the quantitative analysis of multiple oxidants. This work investigates the deviation characteristics of the ABTS method and provides several suggestions for the accurate and sensitive determination of oxidants in complex aqueous environments.

In the present study, a simple and efficient approach based on the online extraction-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with ABTS antioxidant assay (OLE-HPLC-ABTS) was established to quickly and directly analyze the antioxidants in S. baumii. Through this system, the HPLC mobile phase via a guard column packed with a S. baumii sample was used for online extraction (OLE). The separation was performed on an Agilent Poroshell EC-C18 column with a gradient elution using 0.1% formic acid (A) and 0.1% formic acid–acetonitrile (B) as mobile phase systems and detected at a wavelength of 254 nm. Then, the separated compounds were reacted with the antioxidant solution (ABTS), and the response was recorded at a wavelength of 400 nm. The developed analytical method was successfully applied to S. baumii samples, and eight antioxidants were identified. The established system integrated the online extraction, separation and online antioxidant detection, which is rapid, efficient, and suitable for the rapid screening of antioxidant compounds from solid sample mixtures.

A spectrophotometric method using 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) as the indicator was proposed for measuring persulfates, i.e., peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and peroxydisulfate (PDS). This method was based on the direct oxidation of the colorless ABTS by PMS/PDS to generate the green-colored ABTS + at neutral pH and room temperature . The generated ABTS + had four different characteristic absorption peaks at 820 nm, 732 nm, 650 nm and 415 nm. The absorption values at these wavelengths increased with the increase of PMS/PDS concentration, and there were well linear relationships (R 2 > 0.998) between the corresponding absorption values and the concentrations of PMS/PDS in the range of 3–500 μM. Monitoring the change of PMS/PDS concentration by the proposed ABTS method was in good agreement with that monitored by the common spectrophotometric method using potassium iodide as the indicator. The green-colored waste solutions produced after PMS/PDS analysis with the ABTS method showed no bactericidal effect towards Escherichia coli . The proposed multi-wavelength spectrophotometric method using ABTS as the indicator could be employed as a candidate method for the accurate and convenient measurement of PMS/PDS in water.

A homogeneous label-free colorimetric sensing strategy for bleomycin (BLM) assay was developed on the basis of BLM enhanced Fe(II)–H2O2–ABTS reaction. Fe(II) exhibits a catalytic effect on H2O2-mediated oxidation of ABTS by Fenton chemistry. BLM·Fe(II) complex possessed a significantly higher catalytic ability than Fe(II) probably because of the further formation of more active “activated oxo-iron-bleomycin complex”. The present method was convenient without any complicated chemical synthesis, modification, or tedious experimental procedures. Analysis results can be seen with the naked eye and monitored by UV-vis spectra. The peak absorbance exhibits a linear relationship with BLM concentrations from 25 nM to 1 μM, and a detection limit of 16 nM can be achieved. The designed colorimetric strategy may provide a promising alternative for BLM detection in clinical samples.

In this study, a new spectrophotometric method was proposed for the measurement of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) in aqueous solutions. The method was based on the peroxidase (POD)-catalyzed reaction in which 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) was oxidized to form the stable green radical (ABTS + ). The generated ABTS + could be determined spectrophotometrically. The absorbance of the generated ABTS + at 415 nm, 650 nm, 732 nm and 820 nm were linear with H 2 O 2 concentrations in the range of 0–40 μM. The sensitivities of the proposed ABTS method for H 2 O 2 determination at 415 nm, 650 nm, 732 nm and 820 nm were 6.29 × 10 4 M −1 cm −1 , 2.00 × 10 4 M −1 cm −1 , 2.54 × 10 4 M −1 cm −1 and 1.89 × 10 4 M −1 cm −1 , respectively. The oxidation of ABTS to generate ABTS + in POD-catalyzed H 2 O 2 system at pH 6.0 was so fast that the determination time of the ABTS method was as short as 0.5 min. The stoichiometry of the reaction of H 2 O 2 and ABTS in the presence of POD was calculated as nearly 1:2 (1:1.92). The residual absorbance of the generated ABTS + was also found to be stable within 30 min in natural waters. Low H 2 O 2 concentration in rainwater could be both measured by the ABTS method and the DPD method with high accuracy, however, H 2 O 2 concentration in wastewater contained rhodamine B could only be accurately measured with the ABTS method at 732 nm. Moreover, waste solutions after H 2 O 2 analysis with the proposed ABTS method were non-hazardous towards E. coli .

The reaction mechanism of p -hydroxystyryl-substituted BODIPY (BOH) with two oxidative cations, namely ABTS •+ and Fe 3+ , was investigated in a water–ethanol mixed solution and in liposome suspensions, respectively, using different spectroscopic methods. In solution, the oxidation of BOH (with orange fluorescence) by the two cations occurred at the ethylene group (C C) locating between the dipyrrole and phenol groups and resulted in conjugation-truncated products exhibiting characteristic green fluorescence emission. In heterogeneous small unilamellar vesicles (SUV), water soluble ABTS •+ was evidenced to oxidize BOH embedded in the lipid bilayers of SUV, while Fe 3+ did not. The lack of reaction between Fe 3+ and BOH was attributed to the complexation between Fe 3+ and the phenolic hydroxyl group of BOH on the surface of the SUV. The reaction kinetics results indicated that, in homogeneous solution, the oxidation rate of Fe 3+ was three orders of magnitude slower than that of ABTS •+ for BOH. The location and orientation of BOH within the SUV were discussed based on the reaction phenomena. BOH could be as a good antioxidant fluorescent prober for ABTS •+ detection with a detection limit of 1.5 * 10 −7 M and a linear rang of 0–4.93 μM. What’s more, the amphiphilic BOH dispersed in the round GUV (BOH + GUV) could show the bright red fluorescence. This research suggests the significant potential of BOH as an antioxidant fluorescent probe for in situ bioimaging.

The successful encapsulation of 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), a well-known laccase mediator, within a mesoporous metal-organic framework sample (i.e., MIL-100(Fe)) was achieved using a one-pot hydrothermal synthetic method. The as-prepared ABTS@MIL-100(Fe) was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, nitrogen sorption, and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Our ABTS@MIL-100(Fe)-based electrode exhibited an excellent electrochemical response, indicating that MIL-100(Fe) provides an appropriate microenvironment for the immobilization and electroactivity of ABTS molecules. ABTS@MIL-100(Fe) was then evaluated as an immobilized laccase mediator for dye removal using indigo carmine (IC) as a model dye. Through the application of laccase in combination with a free (ABTS) or immobilized (ABTS@MIL-100(Fe)) mediator, decolorization yields of 95% and 94%, respectively, were obtained for IC after 50 min. In addition, following seven reuse cycles of ABTS@MIL-100(Fe) for dye treatment, a decolorization yield of 74% was obtained. Dye decolorization occurred through the breakdown of the chromophoric group by the Laccase/ABTS@MIL-100(Fe) system, and a catalytic mechanism was proposed. We therefore expect that the stability, reusability, and validity of ABTS@MIL-100(Fe) as a laccase mediator potentially render it a promising tool for dye removal, in addition to reducing the high running costs and potential toxicity associated with synthetic mediators.Keywords:laccase;ABTS;metal-organic framework;mediator;decolorization
