Determination of trace Hg2+ ions based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer between fluorescent brightener and CdTe quantum dots

Add time:08/06/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

The fluorescence resonance energy transfer between fluorescent brightener (FB, donor) and CdTe quantum dots (CdTe QDs, acceptor) was studied and a new method for detecting Hg2+ ions in water samples was accordingly developed in this paper. It was found that the effective energy transfer occurred from FB to CdTe QDs in Tris–HCl buffer solution at pH=8.2, in which the QDs' fluorescence intensity increased greatly. Then the fluorescence quenching occurred as Hg2+ interacted with CdTe. Under the optimized conditions, there was a linear relationship between the fluorescence quenching intensity and the concentration of Hg2+. Hg2+ could be determined in the concentration range of 8.0×10−9–8.0×10−7 g L−1 with a detection limit of 6.6×10−10 g L−1 (S/N=3). The method was applied to the determination of Hg2+ in water samples via the standard addition method, and the recovery rate obtained was 97.3–105.5%.
