Quenching of Luminol Fluorescence at Nano-Bio Interface: Towards the Development of an Efficient Energy Transfer System
摘要： Surface modified colloidal gold (Au) and silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) were used as efficient quenchers of luminol (LH2) fluorescence either in homogeneous aqueous medium or its noncovalent assembly with bovine serum albumin (BSA). The mechanism as well as the extent of fluorescence quenching was found to be strongly dependent on the nature of the nanoparticles. While simple static type fluorescence quenching mechanism was perceived with AuNP, a more complex protocol involving quenching sphere model was envisaged for AgNP quenching. Nevertheless, the magnitude of Stern-Volmer (SV) quenching constant (KSV ~ 108–1010 M?1) was calculated to be ca. 104 times more for surface quoted NPs in comparison with BSA–NP bioconjugates system. On the other hand, a highly efficient (E ≈ 95%) energy transfer (ET) process was predicted for LH2 captured in the hydrophobic assembly with BSA in presence of AgNP as an acceptor. The ET efficiency is critically dependent on the concentration of BSA and nicely correlated with the extent of NP surface coverage. However, fluorescence quenching on AuNP surface is relatively less responsive towards protein concentration, primarily due to the difference in surface activity as well as the mode of interaction of the protein with NPs.

Facile Synthesis of ZnO Nanorods/GO Composite and Its Optical Performance
摘要： The ZnO nanorods/GO composite was fabricated by facilely covering monolayer or few-layer graphene oxide (GO) film on the uniformly distributed ZnO nanorods, which was synthesized on Si substrate using a solution method. The as-synthesized products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD). The photoluminescence (PL) measurement indicates that the ZnO nanorods have a strong ultraviolet (UV) emission centered at ～391 nm attributed to the recombination of free excitons and a defect-related visible emission centered at ～530 nm. After the nanorods were covered with GO film, the PL intensity of the composite is quenched compared to that of the bare one at the same excitation condition. The fluorescence quenching mechanism suggests that there is an interfacial charge-transfer process between the excited ZnO and the GO film, and the composite fabricated in this experiment be possible to improve the photocatalysis performance.

Magnesium and nitrogen co-doped carbon dots as fluorescent probes for quenchometric determination of paraoxon using pralidoxime as a linker
摘要： Carbon dots codoped with magnesium and nitrogen (Mg,N-CDs) were synthesized via a one-step microwave-assisted method. They display blue fluorescence (with excitation/emission peaks at 380/460 nm and a 33% quantum yield) and possess high dispersity in aqueous solution. The fluorescence of the Mg,N-CDs is highly sensitive to paraoxon in the presence of pralidoxime (PAM) acting as the linking agent. Electron transfer from Mg,N-CDs to paraoxon in the presence of PAM leads to the fluorescence quenching of Mg,N-CDs. The concentration of paraoxon is determined by measuring the quenching efficiency of the Mg,N-CD-PAM assay system. Fluorescence drops with increasing concentrations of paraoxon in the 0.005–3.0 μM range, and the limit of detection is 0.87 nM. The method is highly selective for paraoxon even in the presence of possible interferences. Real sample study of tap and river water showed the assay to have good repeatability and accuracy.

Nickel ion detection by imidazole modified carbon dots
摘要： Nickel ions (Ni2+) were detected by a new imidazole modified carbon dots (CDs) based on fluorescence quenching method. Structural characterization of CD-imidazole quantum dots were accomplished by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Spectroscopic properties were characterized by ultraviolet absorption spectrum and fluorescence spectrum. Ni2+ concentration showed good linear relationship with fluorescence quenching efficiency in the range of 6-100 mM (R = 0.99) and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.93 mM. Imidazole modified CDs have strong selectivity of Ni2+ compared with other metal ions in aqueous solution. These results demonstrated that the fluorescence sense platform based on imidazole modified CDs can be applied to Ni2+ detection in environment.

Physicochemical and Ion-Sensing Properties of Benzofurazan-Appended Calix[4]arene in Solution and on Gold Nanoparticles: Spectroscopy, Microscopy, and DFT Computations in Support of the Species of Recognition
摘要： A calix[4]arene conjugate (L) functionalized at the lower rim with a benzofurazan fluorophore (NBD) and at the upper rim with a thioether moiety has been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectrometry techniques. Both the absorption and emission spectral data for L in different solvents exhibited progressive changes with an increase in polarity. Ion recognition studies were performed by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy using 10 different metal ions. Among these, Hg2+ exhibited greater changes in these spectra, whereas Cu2+ showed only significant changes and all other ions showed no change in the spectral features. Although the Hg2+ has dominant influence on the spectral features and provides a detection limit of 56.0 ± 0.6 ppb, the selectivity was hampered because of the presence of the derivatizations present on both the rims of L for ion interaction in solution. Therefore, L was immobilized onto gold nanoparticles (AuNPL) so that the upper rim derivatizations anchor onto the gold surface through Au?S interactions, and this leaves out only the lower rim NBD derivatization for interaction with ions selectively. The AuNPL’s were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses. The surface characteristics were analyzed by contact angle measurements. The AuNPL’s exhibit greater selectivity and enhanced sensitivity for Hg2+ ions with a lowest detection limit of 48.0 ± 0.8 ppb. The immobilization of L onto AuNPs was reflected in the corresponding fluorescence lifetime values, and the addition of Hg2+ to either L or AuNPL showed fluorescence quenching. The reversible recognition of Hg2+ by L was demonstrated by titrating L or AuNPL with Hg2+ followed by tetra-butyl ammonium iodide for several cycles. The structural features of Hg2+-bound species were demonstrated by density functional theory computations and were supported by the XPS data. The Hg2+ induces aggregated fibrillar morphology into supramolecular L, as demonstrated by microscopy when Hg2+ was added either to L or to AuNPL, supporting aggregation-caused quenching.
