The invention discloses a method for selectively determining Cu < 2 + > by using one-step
microwave hydrothermal synthesized fluorescent carbon dots. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: S1, preparing carbon dots; S2, separating and purifying the carbon dots; S3, concentrating a
carbon dot solution; S4, adjusting the pH value of the
carbon dot concentrated solution to 14,taking the
carbon dot solution, scanning the
emission spectrum of the carbon dot solution when an EX is in a range of 360-580nm, and detecting the
fluorescence intensity; S5, concentrating a solutioncontaining the
metal cations until the solution is close to a saturated state, pouring the concentrated solution containing
metal cations into the carbon dot solution, scanning the emission spectrumof the carbon dot solution, detecting
fluorescence intensity, determining the
fluorescence of the carbon dot solution is obviously quenched, and considering the solution containing
metal cations contains Cu < 2 + >. According to the invention, the new method for detecting Cu < 2 + > based on the fluorescence
quenching mechanism is successfully established by using the carbon dot as a fluorescenceprobe, and the method has characteristics of simple operation,
environmental protection, low cost and short required time, and provides the simple and rapid method for rapid and real-time Cu < 2 + > detection.
