    Abstract:
    Owing to the adverse effects of oxytetracycline (OTC) residues on human health, it is of great importance to construct a rapid and effective strategy for OTC detection. Herein, we developed a dual-response fluorescence sensing platform based on molybdenum sulfide quantum dots (MoS2 QDs) and europium ions (Eu3+) for ratiometric detection of OTC. The MoS2 QDs, synthesized through an uncomplicated one-step hydrothermal approach, upon OTC integration into the MoS2 QDs/Eu3+ sensing system, exhibit a significant quenching of blue fluorescence due to the inner filter effect (IFE), simultaneously enhancing the distinct red emission of Eu3+ at 624 nm, a phenomenon attributed to the antenna effect (AE). This sensor demonstrates exceptional selectivity and sensitivity towards OTC, characterized by a linear detection range of 0.2-10 μM and a notably low detection limit of 2.21 nM. Furthermore, we achieved a visual semi-quantitative assessment of OTC through the discernible fluorescence color transition from blue to red under a 365 nm ultraviolet lamp. The practical applicability of this sensor was validated through the successful detection of OTC in milk and mutton samples, underscoring its potential as a robust tool for OTC monitoring in foodstuffs to safeguard food safety.
