As heavy metals cannot be biodegraded and are easily accumulated in food chain organisms and so enter the human body, a simple detection method becomes particularly important for human health. A robust means for the visual detection of highly toxic mercury ion (Hg2+) is developed with aptamerfunctionalized one-dimensional photonic crystals (1DPCs). 1DPCs consisting of TiO2 and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide- acrylic acid), P(NIPAM-AA), were successfully fabricated by a spin-coating technique, whose stopbands span the total visible range. When the 1DPCs were exposed to mercury ion solution, the specific binding of cross-linked single-stranded aptamers and heavy metal ions in the hydrogel network caused the hydrogel to shrink. At the same time, there was a homologous blue shift in the Bragg diffraction peak position of the TiO2/P(NIPAM-AA) 1DPCs. The shift value could be used to estimate the number of target ions quantitatively. It was found that the 1DPCs apta-sensor could screen a wide concentration range of heavy metal ions with selectivity and sensitivity. It is expected that the technology may also be widely used in screening a wide range of metal ions in drugs, food, and the environment.
