CdSe/ZnS quantum dots based fluorescence quenching method for determination of paeonol

Aqueous polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)-capped CdSe/ZnS quantum dots were used as fluorescence probes for paeonol determination. Based on the fluorescence quenching of aqueous CdSe/ZnS quantum dots caused by paeonol, a simple, sensitive and rapid method was developed. Under the optimal conditions, with excitation and emission wavelengths at 350 nm and 620 nm, respectively, the calibration plot of F0-F with concentration of paeonol was linear in the range of 25.04-175.2 mg L(-1) with correlation coefficient of 0.9986. The limit of detection was 0.017 mg L(-1). The concentration of paeonol in paeonol ointment was determined by the proposed method and the result agreed with the claimed value. Furthermore, the possible fluorescence quenching mechanism was discussed.     

DNA detection based on Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots/methylene blue nanohybrids

Nanohybrids were formed from 3-mercaptopropionic acid(MPA)-coated Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots(QDs) and methylene blue(MB) via electrostatic interaction, and then used in the detection of trace DNA.The principle of detection is as follows: MB binds with Mn-doped ZnS QDs via electrostatic interaction,and then quenches the room temperature phosphorescence(RTP) of the QDs through photoinduced electron-transfer(PIET). After the addition of DNA, MB binds with DNA through intercalation and electrostatic interaction, and desorbs from the surfaces of Mn-doped ZnS QDs, which recovers the RTP of the QDs. On this basis, a DNA detection method based on the properties of RTP was set up. This method shows a detection range of 0.2–20 mg/L, and a detection limit of 0.113 mg/L. Since this method is based on the RTP of QDs, it is not interfered by the background fluorescence or scattering light in vivo, and thus,avoids complex sample pretreatment. Thus, this method is very feasible for detection of trace DNA in biofluids.     

Determination of arsenic based on quenching of CdS quantum dots fluorescence using the gas-diffusion flow injection method

A sequential injection analysis system for determination of arsenic based on hydride generation and fluorescence quenching of mercaptoacetic acid capped cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS-MAA QDs) is described. The generated arsine diffused across the PTFE membrane in a gas-diffusion unit and subsequently interacted with CdS-MAA QDs. The parameters affecting the arsine generation and the fluorescence quenching of QDs were studied. Under the optimum conditions, it was observed that a increase in the concentration of As(III) corresponded well to a decrease in fluorescence intensity according to the Stern-Volmer relationship. The extent of quenching was dependent on the concentration of arsenic in the range of 0.08-3.20 mmol L⁻¹, with the detection limit of 0.07 mg L⁻¹. The precision (%RSD) from eight replicates of the determination of As(III) 1.0 mg L⁻¹ was found to be 1.4%. The proposed method was applied to the determination of arsenic in ground water samples with satisfactory recoveries.     

Enhanced photoluminescence of water-soluble Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots by thiol ligand exchange

Hydrophobic Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots (Mn:ZnS d-dots) were made to be water soluble by coating a monolayer of mercaptopropionic acid (MPA). It is found that the PL efficiency of Mn:ZnS d-dots with various shell thicknesses were all improved after thiol (MPA) ligand exchange. We attribute their PL enhancement to the effective surface passivation induced by the thiol ligand and significantly decrease of holes transfer from d-dots to ligands. The PL QY of as-synthesized thiol-coated d-dots can reach as high as 50%. These efficient, stable, and water soluble d-dots are confirmed to be suitable for biomedical applications.     

Determination of DNA based on fluorescence quenching of terbium doped carbon dots

This work describes the preparation of carbon dots doped with terbium(III) (Tb-CDs) via a hydrothermal method, starting from terbium ion and ethylenediamine. The size, composition and spectral properties of the Tb-CDs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectra, and fluorescence spectra. The results show that doping of the CDs with Tb(III) reduces the particle size and results in more uniform particles, while fluorescence (at excitation/emission peaks of 380/475 nm) is strongly enhanced. The interaction between Tb-CDs and ct-DNA results in fluorescence quenching of Tb-CDs. The findings were exploited to design a quenchometric method for the determination of ct-DNA. The signal drops linearly in the 80 ng·mL^?1 to 50 μg·mL^?1 ct-DNA concentration range, and the detection limit is 53 ng·mL^?1. The method was applied to the determination of ct-DNA in spiked samples and gave satisfactory results. The possible fluorescence quenching mechanism (which is mainly static) was investigated using the Stern–Volmer equation and thermodynamic equations.

Determination of ceftriaxone by the fluorescence quenching of quantum dots using binding with polyethyleneimine

It is found that antibiotic ceftriaxone reacts with polyethyleneimine in aqueous solutions, probably, with the formation of a noncovalent molecular complex (complex I). The product of hydrolysis of complex I, when heated in an aqueous solution (product II), quenches the fluorescence of CdSe/CdS/ZnS coreshell- shell quantum dots, probably, because of the formation of free thiol groups. A possibility of ceftriaxone determination in aqueous solutions is demonstrated.
