A novel ratio-fluorescent probe based on molecular imprinting polymer ( MIP) for the detection of sulfadiazine was prepared by using nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) as the fluorescence response signal, silica-embedded cadmium telluride quantum dots ( CdTe QDs) as the fluorescence reference signal, sulfadiazine ( SDZ) as template molecule, acrylamide as functional monomer, N, N-methyl bisacrylamide as crosslinking agent and 2,2-Azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator. The results showed that the probe has a core-shell structure and fluorescence sensitive to SDZ, by the characterization of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and fluorescence spectrophotometer. Under the wavelength of 360 nm, the ratio-fluorescent signal of probe showed a linear response with SDZ concentration in the range of 0-100 μmol / L with the detection limit of 11 nmol / L. Also, the ratio-fluorescent probe was applied to the detection of SDZ with a recovery of 92. 0%-95. 1% and relative standard deviation (RSD) of 3. 6% in real water samples. © 2022, Youke Publishing Co.,Ltd.

Scrupulous recognition of biologically important acids by fluorescent “turn off-on” mechanism of thaicalix reduced silver nanoparticles

Water dispersible silver nanoparticles(AgNps) were prepared using thiacalix[4]arene tetrahydrazide(TCTH) as a reducing and stabilizing agent.TCTH-AgNps were characterized by surface plasmon resonance(SPR),transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray(EDX).Relatively uniform 20 nm spherical particles of TCTH-AgNps were efficiently formed over a pH range of 5-9 and from 10-40 ℃.The interaction behavior of TCTH-AgNps with different amino acids was investigated using spectrophotometry and spectrofluorimetry.Among the amino acids tested,only tryptophan and histidine showed fluorescence quenching and fluorescence enhancement,respectively.The linear detection range by Stern-Volmer plot was 5 nmol/L to 0.48 μmol/L for tryptophan and 4 nmol/L to 0.54 μmol/L for histidine.TCTH-AgNps were able to effectively reduce the levels of gram-positive bacteria,gram-negative bacteria,and fungi.These properties argue for the potential use of TCTH-AgNps as detectors of histidine and tryptophan and as antibiotics.

The fluorescent carbon dots were successfully synthesized by simply heating the mixture of lactose and Na OH solution. The as-synthesized carbon dots had been systematically characterized by fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared(FTIR), high resolution transmission electron microscopy(HR-TEM) and ~(13)C NMR.

Trace determination of cobalt ion by using malic acid-malonic acid double substrate oscillating chemical system

A novel kinetic method for determination of trace amounts of cobalt ion was proposed and validated. The method is based on adding malic acid into classical Belousov-Zhabotinskii （B-Z） oscillating chemical system to form a double substrate one. The results showed that when the concentration of cobalt ion was in the range of 5.27× 10^-8 to 5.37 × 10^-12 mol L^-1, the change of the oscillating period was directly proportional to the negative logarithm of cobalt ion concentration. The sensitivity and precision of the developed method were quite satisfactory. The limit of detection was down to 5.20 × 10^-13 mol L^-1 which was a highest sensitivity found for determination of metal ions using oscillating chemical reaction so far. Some factors influencing the determination were also examined. The method has been successfully used to determine cobalt ion in vitamin B12 injection.

A novel dual-modal fluorometric and colorimetric method was developed for glucose detection using MnO2 sheets and carbon quantum dots(CQDs). The glucose could be oxidized by glucose oxidase, in accompanied witli the fbnnation of H2O2 intennediate, which resulted in the decomposition of MnO2 sheets, as well as tlie MnO2 sheets(brown) changed to Mn^2+ ions(colorless), which induced the absorption of MnO2 sheet decreased and the fluorescence of CQDs increased, consequently. The linear detection ranges of glucose are 5-1000 μmol/L by fluorescent method and 5-60 μmol/L by colorimetric method. The limits of detection of these two measurements are 2.11 and 2.18 μmol/L, respectively. This method is easy to conduct, has reasonable sensitive and selectivity, and could be applied for the glucose detection in real human senim.     

Gold Nanoclusters Templated by Poly-cytosine DNA as Fluorescent Probes for Selective and Sensitive Detection of Thiocyanate

Gold nanoclusters(AuNCs) were prepared in the presence of the nucleobases of poly-cytosine DNAs in this paper. We have demonstrated tliat the fluorescence of the AuNCs is quenched by thiocyanate(SCN^-) through the interaction between SCN^- and gold atoms. AuNCs can receive energy from nucleobases to boost their emission intensity, while in the presence of SCN^-, they coordinate with Au atoms and influence the energy transfer between the nucleobases and AuNCs, leading to the fluorescence quenching. The decreased fluorescence intensity was in proportion to the concentration of SCN^- in the range of 8.0×10^-7-1.5×10^-5 mol/L with a limit of detection of 4.2×10^-7 mol/L(3σ). We further validated the practice of this probe througli the detection of SCbT in natural water samples.     

Study on an electrochemical biosensor for thrombin recognition based on aptamers and nano particles

This paper presents a high specific, sensitive electrochemical biosensor for recognition of protein such as thrombin based on aptamers and nano particles. Two different aptamers were chosen to construct a sandwich manner for detecting thrombin. Aptamer I was immobilized on nano magnetic particle for capturing thrombin, and aptamer II labled with nano gold was used for detection. The electrical current generated from gold after the formation of the complex of magnetic particle, thrombin and nano gold, and then an electrochemical cell designed by ourselves was used for separating, gathering, and electrochemical detecting. Through magnetic separation, high specific and sensitive detection of the target protein, thrombin, was achieved. Linear response was observed over the range 5.6×10-12―1.12×10-9 mol/L, with a detection limit of 1.42×10-12 mol/L. The presence of other protein as BSA did not affect the detection, which indicates that high selective recognition of thrombin can be achieved in complex biological samples such as human plasma.

N-doped peanut membrane carbon quantum dots as a " off-on" fluorescence probe determination of hydroquinoneEI北大核心CSCD

N-doped peanut membrane carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) were prepared by one-step hydrothermal method using peanut membrane and urea as materials. On the basis of investigating the spectral characteristics of the N-CQDs, we found that KMnO4 could cause the fluorescence signal of the N-CQDs to "turn-off" in the B-R buffer system with pH 10. 38. Once hydroquinone was added, the fluorescence signal of the N-CQDs-KMnO4 system gradually recovered and the fluorescence signal "turned on". Based on this, a new "off-on" fluorescence probe method for the detection of hydroquinone-N-CQDs-KMnO4 system was developed. Under the optimized conditions, the recovered fluorescence of N-CQDs was linearly related with the hydroquinone concentration in the range of 0. 10-200 mmol / L, the linear equation was ΔF = 1. 6819c + 153. 84 (r = 0. 9992), with the detection limit of 30 μmol / L. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of hydroquinone in simulated samples. © 2022, Youke Publishing Co.,Ltd. All rights reserved.
