Problems solved by technology

It has been reported that near-infrared quantum dots are used to detect glucose in animal cells. However, due to the different structures of plant cells and animal cells, and for green plants, glucose mainly exists in leaf cells, and nanoparticles smaller than 10nm are required to enter plant cells through the cell wall. , and the particle size of near-infrared quantum dots is often larger than 10nm, so the near-infrared quantum dots cannot be used to detect glucose in plant cells

preparation example Construction

[0034] The preparation method of the quantum dot fluorescent probe used in the present invention is as follows: preparing TGA-CdTe quantum dots, and dissolving the TGA-CdTe quantum dots in CdCl 2 and Na 2 S 2 O 3 in the mixed aqueous solution, and then mixed with EDC, NHS and APBA to obtain quantum dot fluorescent probes. details as follows:

[0035] (1) Preparation of TGA-CdTe quantum dots

[0036] Specifically, in a 15 mL small beaker, 127.5 mg of Te powder and 80 mg of NaBH were first mixed under magnetic stirring. 4 Dissolve in 5 mL of double-distilled water, stir for 2 hours to make Te powder disappear, cool the reaction product with an ice bath immediately, then centrifuge at 4 °C, 5000 r / min for 10 min, take the supernatant to obtain 0.2 mmol / L NaHTe aqueous solution.

[0037] Another 91.3mg CdCl 2 ·5H 2 O was dissolved in 100 mL of water, 44 μl of TGA (mercaptoacetic acid) was added, stirred with argon, and the pH was adjusted to 10 with 0.5 mol / L NaOH. Then, 2...

Embodiment 1

[0049] In Example 1, the above quantum dot fluorescent probe BA-QDs was used to detect glucose in green algae cells of unicellular algae.

[0050] Specifically, the unicellular algal plant green algae was incubated with 1 mL of 100 nM BA-QDs for 20 min, washed three times with 1×TES (triethylchlorosilane), and then the green algae were made into sheets and observed under a laser confocal microscope. Photographs were taken to record the fluorescence intensity at 0 / 20 / 40 / 60min time points in 3 different places in the green algae cells, and the first relative fluorescence intensity value at 60min was calculated by the software Image J for the fluorescence imaging graph.

[0051] Another green algae was incubated with 1000 μM glucose solution for 60 min, washed with 1×TES for 3 times to remove the glucose on the surface of the green algae; then incubated with 1 mL of 100 nM BA-QDs for 20 min, washed with 1×TES for 3 times, The algae were made into slices and observed under a laser...

Embodiment 2

[0056] This embodiment 2 utilizes the above-mentioned quantum dot fluorescent probe BA-QDs to detect glucose in Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells, and the detection method is as follows:

[0057] Specifically, after injecting 100 μL of 100 nM BA-QDs into 4-week-old Arabidopsis leaves, the Arabidopsis leaves were made into slices for observation by laser confocal microscopy, and photos were taken to record different time points at 580-610 nm in the cells of the Arabidopsis thaliana leaves. (0 / 5 / 10 / 20 / 30 / 45 / 60min) fluorescence intensity, the fluorescence image captured by the software Image J was used to calculate the relative fluorescence intensity value at each time point in 3 different places in Arabidopsis leaf cells, and get The first relative fluorescence intensity value at 60min.

[0058] Another 4-week-old Arabidopsis was taken, and 100 μL of 1000 μM glucose solution was injected into Arabidopsis leaves. 10 min later, 100 μL of 100 nM BA-QDs were injected into the same po...

Abstract

The invention provides a quantum dot fluorescent probe and its application in detecting glucose in plant cells. The preparation method of the quantum dot fluorescent probe comprises the following steps: a) combining NaHTe with CdCl 2 , thioglycolic acid mixed reaction to obtain TGA-CdTe quantum dots; b) TGA-CdTe quantum dots are dissolved in CdCl 2 and Na 2 S 2 O 3 In the mixed solution of , obtain the quantum dot fluorescent probe precursor; c) add the quantum dot fluorescent probe precursor to the mixed solution of EDC and NHS, then add 3-aminophenylboronic acid, and react to obtain the quantum dot fluorescent probe. The quantum dot fluorescent probe of the present invention is modified with 3-aminophenylboronic acid on the surface of the CdTe quantum dot, so that the probe can penetrate the plant cell wall and enter the plant cell, and interact with the glucose in the cell to agglomerate to reduce the fluorescence intensity, thereby reducing the fluorescence intensity. From this relationship, the glucose concentration in the green plant cells is detected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biosensors and molecular identification, in particular to a quantum dot fluorescent probe and its application in detecting glucose in plant cells. Background technique [0002] Glucose (Glucose, C 6 H 12 O 6 ) is a polyhydroxy aldehyde that plays an important role in the life cycle of plants. In plants, cells absorb carbon dioxide and convert it into glucose through photosynthesis, which is used as an energy source for living cells. In addition, glucose also has a signaling function and is an important regulator of plant growth, development and gene expression. [0003] At present, the detection method of glucose is mainly high performance liquid chromatography. However, this method has shortcomings such as time-consuming, pre-treatment, chemical reagents, and high professional skills required for testing personnel. In order to deeply study the physiological role of glucose in plants, it is urgent to develop ...
