Preparation of biomass N-doped carbon dots and detection of tioproninEI北大核心CSCD

Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) were prepared by one-step hydrothermal synthesis with pomegranate seeds as the carbon source and urea as the nitrogen source. Observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), average particle size of N-CDs was 20 nm. Observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM), the thickness of N-CDs was 0. 6-1. 4 nm. Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) confirmed the presence of water-soluble functional groups such as amino groups on the surface of N-CDs. With the prepared N-CDs as the target fluorophore, Hg2 + can efficiently bind to the surface of N-CDs to form a complex, and achieve static quenching. The addition of tiopronin can bind the Hg2 + in the complex to make the Hg2 + detach from the surface of N-CDs and realize fluorescence recovery. The nano fluorescence switch constructed in this work is more accurate and sensitive than the traditional detection method. The optimum conditions were determined by optimizing the pH value, reaction time, the dosage of N-CDs and Hg2 +. The relative deviation (RSD) was 4. 7%, and the detection limit was 0. 2 μmol/L. The method was used to determine the content of tiopronin in human serum samples with the recoveries of 97. 2%-101. 3%. © 2022, Youke Publishing Co.,Ltd. All rights reserved.
