A method is presented for electrochemiluminescent (ECL) detection of the food additive curcumin via an energy transfer strategy and by using luminol-doped silica nanoparticles (luminol-NPs). The ECL emission of the luminol-NPs (peaking at 425 nm) is reduced in the presence of curcumin due to spectral overlap. The assay can be performed within 1 min, response is linear in the 0.1 to 100 µM curcumin...
Water-dispersed fluorescent silicon nanodots (SiNDs) were synthesized by a one-pot hydrothermal method starting from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as silicon source and trisodium citrate as reducing reagent. The method is simple and convenient. The SiNDs, with excitation/emission peaks at 347/440 nm and with fluorescence quantum yield of 18% are shown to be viable fluorescent probes for picric acid...
