Based on the controlled aggregation of quantum dots (QDs), a valid, reliable, and label-free fluorescence turn-on strategy is established for the detection of alkaline phosphatase activity. The aqueous solution of anionic QDs exhibits intense fluorescence. However, the addition of cationic polymer (poly-1) significantly quenched the fluorescence of the QDs via their induced aggregation. While short...
Sensitive glucose detection enables indirect blood glucose sensing through easily accessible biofluids such as saliva and sweat. In this work, silver coated gold nanorods (Au@Ag NRs) were synthesized and used to prepare plasmonic substrate for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to leverage highly sensitive detection of glucose for quantitative analysis. By synthetically manipulating of gold...
Recently, considerable efforts have been made to prepare Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanostructures with high sensitivity and good reproducibility, which are always difficult and costly. In this article, we provide a simple route on the synthesis of silver particles with a novel single {111} plane and triangular morphology by reducing silver nitrate with poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP)...
In this work, a fluorescence turn-on method for copper(II) detection is reported. A molecular beacon (MB) was designed as a template. Cu 2+ was reduced to Cu + in the presence of a reductant (ascorbic acid). Two short single-stranded oligonucleotides one was labeled with a 5′-alkyne and the other with 3′-azide group, proceeded a template-dependent chemical ligation through the Cu(I)-catalyzed...
A facile assay method for the highly sensitive and selective sensing of biothiols based on graphene quantum dots (GQDs) has been developed. GQDs emitted strong blue fluorescence in an aqueous buffer solution. It was observed that mercury(II) ions could efficiently bind and quench the fluorescence of the GQDs. When a biothiol compound (glutathione, cysteine, or homocysteine) was added to the assay...
