Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular probes, and in particular relates to a luminescent carbon quantum dot, a preparation method and application thereof, and a method for detecting arginine in an aqueous solution by using the luminescent carbon quantum dot. Background technique [0002] Among the 20 kinds of amino acids that make up proteins, arginine is one of the amino acids that can form the most diverse proteins in animals. It is not only the precursor of protein synthesis, but also produces nitric oxide, urea, polyamines, proline, gluten It is the precursor of amino acid, creatine and agmatine, etc. In addition, arginine plays a vital role in blood vessel dilation, nerve transmission, cell division, wound healing, immune function and hormone release, so it is recognized by scientists However, the strong hydrophilicity of arginine and the weak interaction with receptors make its detection in aqueous solution a great challenge. ...

[0002] Among the 20 kinds of amino acids that make up proteins, arginine is one of the amino acids that can form the most diverse proteins in animals. It is not only the precursor of protein synthesis, but also produces nitric oxide, urea, polyamines, proline, gluten It is the precursor of amino acid, creatine and agmatine, etc. In addition, arginine plays a vital role in blood vessel dilation, nerve transmission, cell division, wound healing, immune function and hormone release, so it is recognized by scientists However, the strong hydrophilicity of arginine and the weak interaction with receptors make its detection in aqueous solution a great challenge. At present, only a few studies have reported the use of chemical sensors to detect arginine for detection [Parveen, S.D.S., Affrose, A., Pitchumani, K., 2015. Sens. Actuators B 221, 521–527. He, L.; So, V. L. L.; Xin J. H.; 2014. Sens. Actuators B 192, 496 –502.], but the complex synthesis process greatly limits the practical application of these sensors; the patent of this invention adopts a simple hydrothermal synthesis method to prepare a water-soluble luminescent carbon quantum dot, the synthesis method is simple, and the carbon quantum dot completely water soluble
