Graphdiyne nanosheets as a platform for accurate copper(ii) ion detection via click chemistry and fluorescence resonance energy transfer

RSC Adv. 2021 Jan 28;11(10):5320-5324. doi: 10.1039/d0ra08595b.

Abstract

A novel sensing platform for sensitive detection of copper(ii) ions (Cu2+) in living cells and body fluids was developed by taking advantage of the excellent fluorescence quenching ability of graphdiyne (GDY) and the high specificity of click chemistry for the first time.
