Title: Phosphorimetric determination of 4-nitrophenol using mesoporous molecular imprinting polymers containing manganese(II)-doped ZnS quantum dots. Author: Luo S, Miao Y, Guo J, Sun X, Yan G. Journal: Mikrochim Acta; 2019 Mar 19; 186(4):249. PubMed ID: 30888522. Abstract: Mesoporous molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) containing mangnanese-doped ZnS quantum dots (Mn-ZnS QDs) were prepared for specific recognition and detection of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The Mn-ZnS QDs display orange room-temperature phosphorescence with excitation/emission peaks at 295/590 nm and a decay time of 2.0 ms. In the presence of 4-NP, the orange phosphorescence is strongly reduced. Phosphorescence drops linearly in the 0.1-100 μM 4-NP concentration range, and the detection limit is 60 nM. The detection limit is far lower than the maximally allowed 4-NP concentrations in surface water and drinking water as specified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The intraday (n = 5) and interday (n = 6) spiked recovery rates were 96.0-104.5% and 97.9-107.9%, respectively, with relative standard deviations of 0.7-4.8% and 1.8-7.5% respectively. These MIPs integrated the characteristic features of phosphorimetry and molecular imprinting. Potential interference by competitive substances, background fluorescence or scattered light are widely reduced.

A novel probe with manganese-doped ZnS quantum dots (Mn-ZnS QDs) and 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTES) as functional monomers and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as crosslinking agent was prepared for selective phosphorescence detection of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
