چکیده

A new room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) mercury ions sensor has been developed based on cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-capped Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots (CTAB/Mn-ZnS QDs) and label-free thymine (T)-rich aptamer. The formed T-Hg(2+)-T dsDNA can linearly quench the RTP of Mn-ZnS QDs through electron transfer and aggregation effect, and give a detection limit of 1.5 nM.

Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots as a room-temperature phosphorescent probe for analysis of glutamic acid in foodstuffs

L-cysteine–capped Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots (QDs) were used for the determination of glutamic acid in foodstuffs. This method is based on measurement of the quenching of the phosphorescence intensity of the QDs after interacting with glutamic acid. A linear response was observed from 50 to 500 ng mL−1 glutamic acid with a limit of detection of 6.79 ng mL−1 . Room temperature phosphorescence (RT...

Ultrasensitive Quantum Dot Fluorescence quenching Assay for Selective Detection of Mercury Ions in Drinking Water

Mercury is one of the most acutely toxic substances at trace level to human health and living thing. Developing a rapid, cheap and water soluble metal sensor for detecting mercury ions at ppb level remains a challenge. Herein, a metal sensor consisting of MPA coated Mn doped ZnSe/ZnS colloidal nanoparticles was utilized to ultrasensitively and selectively detect Hg(2+) ions with a low detection...

Long-lived and Well-resolved Mn2+ Ion Emissions in CuInS-ZnS Quantum Dots

CuInS2 (CIS) quantum dots (QDs) have tunable photoluminescence (PL) behaviors in the visible and near infrared spectral range with markedly lower toxicity than the cadmium-based counterparts, making them very promising applications in light emitting and solar harvesting. However, there still remain material- and fabrication- related obstacles in realizing the high-performance CIS-based QDs with...
