Highly selective ensembles for D-fructose based on fluorescent method in aqueous solution

Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc. 2012 Jun:91:178-83. doi: 10.1016/j.saa.2012.02.008. Epub 2012 Feb 9.

Abstract

Three highly sensitive and selective switches for monosaccharides were composed by anionic polyelectrolyte PPPSO(3)Na and cationic viologen quencheres BBVs. The sensing processes of three ensembles (PPPSO(3)Na/o-BBV, PPPSO(3)Na/m-BBV and PPPSO(3)Na/p-BBV) to common seven monosaccharides have been determined by fluorescence spectra at pH 7.4 buffer solution. The results show that the three sensing ensembles all embody higher selectivity and sensitivity for d-fructose with reversible "on-off-on" fluorescence response. The research results can provide a new mode for developing highly selective probes.
