Detection limit14
The detection limit was calculated based on the fluorescence
titration. To determine the S/N ratio, the emission intensity of
tripod (5 ꢂM) was measured 5 times and the standard deviation
of blank measurements was determined. The detection limit
was then calculated with the equation:

Detection limit = 3σbi/m
Where, σbi is the standard deviation of blank measurements; m
is the slope between intensity versus sample concentration. The
detection limit was measured to be 1 nM at S/N = 3.
