摘要
A dual-channel optical sensing platform which combines the advantages of dual-wavelength overlapping resonance Rayleigh scattering (DWO-RRS) and fluorescence has been designed for the detection of diminazene aceturate (DA). It is based on the use of thioglycolic acid-wrapped CdTe/CdS quantum dots (Q-dots). In the absence of DA, the thioglycolic acid-wrapped CdTe/CdS Q-dots exhibit the high fluorescence spectrum and low RRS spectrum, so are selected to develop an easy-to-get system. In the presence of DA, the thioglycolic acid-wrapped CdTe/CdS Q-dots and DA form a complex through electrostatic interaction, which result in the RRS intensity getting enhanced significantly with new RRS peaks appearing at 317 and 397 nm; the fluorescence is powerfully quenched. Under optimum conditions, the scattering intensities of the two peaks are proportional to the concentration of DA in the range of 0.0061-3.0 mu g mL(-1). The detection limits for the two single peaks are 4.1 ng mL(-1) and 3.3 ng mL(-1), while that of the DWO-RRS method is 1.8 ng mL(-1), indicating that the DWO-RRS method has high sensitivity. Besides, the fluorescence also exhibits good linear range from 0.0354 to 10.0 mu g mL(-1) with a detection limit of 10.6 ng mL(-1). In addition, the system has been applied to the detection of DA in milk samples with satisfactory results.
