Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of drug detection technology, specifically to a rapid detection method for lomefloxacin based on fluorescent carbon dots. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are a class of novel, spherical, stable luminescent small carbon nanoparticles with a particle size of less than 10 nanometers. They were first discovered in 2004 during the purification of single-walled carbon nanotubes. Due to their excellent photostability, small size, highly tunable photoluminescence, excellent biocompatibility, electrochemiluminescence, excellent multiphoton excitation (upconversion), good solubility, high quantum yield, surface functional groups, and low toxicity, CQDs have wide applications in bioimaging, biosensing, biopharmaceuticals, disease detection, optoelectronics, sensors, and catalysis. In recent years, doping with heteroatoms to improve the fluorescence performance of CQDs has become a research hotspot, because the structural changes caused by doping can effectively alter the essential properties of CQDs. Nitrogen doping is a common doping method.

[0003] Compared to traditional organic dye-based sensing probes, carbon quantum dots exhibit superior properties as fluorophores due to the photobleaching and toxicity issues associated with the former. The presence of functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, carbonyl, and epoxy groups on their surface endows them with water solubility. Furthermore, these groups pave the way for surface functionalization of quantum dots and provide selectivity for target analytes. Currently, no applications of carbon dots for lomefloxacin detection have been reported. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention aims to provide a rapid detection method for lomefloxacin based on fluorescent carbon dots, offering a new pathway for lomefloxacin detection. This method boasts advantages such as convenient construction, high sensitivity, good specificity, and ease of use, and can be applied to the determination of drug concentration in lomefloxacin raw materials and their preparations, as well as in veterinary drug residues.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a rapid detection method for lomefloxacin based on fluorescent carbon dots is provided, which applies fluorescent carbon dots to the detection of lomefloxacin drug concentration.

[0006] A rapid detection method for lomefloxacin based on fluorescent carbon dots includes the following steps:

[0007] (1) Prepare a carbon dot solution by mixing the above fluorescent carbon dots with water, and then add lomefloxacin standard solutions of different concentrations. Use 395nm as the excitation wavelength and measure the emission intensity at 485nm wavelength with a fluorescence spectrophotometer. Use the least squares method to perform linear regression on the change in emission intensity and lomefloxacin concentration to obtain the standard curve equation.

[0008] (2) Calculate the fluorescence intensity change value of the sample to be tested according to y=F-F0, and then substitute the fluorescence intensity change value obtained from the measurement of the sample to be tested into the standard curve to calculate the concentration of lomefloxacin to be tested.

[0009] Further, in step (1), fluorescent carbon dots are prepared by the following method: using citric acid as carbon source and tyrosine as nitrogen source, they are ultrasonically mixed with deionized water, and then hydrothermally reacted at 140-240℃ for 2-8 hours. After filtration, dialysis and freeze-drying, fluorescent carbon dots are obtained.

[0010] Furthermore, the mass ratio of citric acid to tyrosine is 1:3-3:1.

[0011] Furthermore, the mass-to-volume ratio of citric acid to deionized water is 0.5 g: 10-25 mL.

[0012] Furthermore, after filtration through a 0.22μm microporous membrane, the molecular weight cutoff of the dialysis bag during dialysis is 1000-5000 Da, and the dialysis time is 12-48 hours.

[0013] Furthermore, in step (1), the solubility of the carbon dot solution is 0.01-2.00 mg / mL.

[0014] Furthermore, in step (2), the volume ratio of the carbon dot solution to the lomefloxacin standard solution is 1:0.5-5.

[0015] Furthermore, in step (2), the volume ratio of the carbon dot solution to the lomefloxacin standard solution is 1:1.

[0016] Furthermore, in step (2), F represents the fluorescence intensity of the carbon dots when lomefloxacin is added, and F0 represents the fluorescence intensity of the carbon dots when lomefloxacin is not added.

[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This invention applies fluorescent carbon dots to the detection of lomefloxacin drug concentration, providing a new pathway for the detection of lomefloxacin. It has advantages such as convenient construction, high sensitivity, good specificity, and ease of use. It can be applied to the determination of drug concentration in lomefloxacin raw materials and their preparations, as well as in veterinary drug residues.

[0019] 2. This invention uses citric acid as the carbon source, which is abundant, inexpensive, and readily available. Simultaneously, it employs water as the reaction solvent, employing a one-step hydrothermal synthesis method. The process is simple, environmentally friendly, economical, and efficient, possessing significant social importance. The resulting nitrogen-doped carbon dots exhibit excellent fluorescence properties and superior water solubility. Furthermore, the carbon dot quantum properties are advantageous for the determination of lomefloxacin, offering advantages such as simple and rapid operation, low detection limits, and high accuracy.

[0020] 3. This invention uses readily available citric acid as a raw material to dope amino small molecules to prepare carbon quantum dots with high fluorescence performance, and successfully uses them for the sensing and determination of lomefloxacin with good results. The carbon dots are low in preparation cost, easy to operate, fast to detect and highly sensitive, and have good promotional value. Attached Figure Description
