The invention relates to a fluorescent
DNA-silver nanocluster, and a preparation method and application thereof. The particle size of the fluorescent
DNA-silver nanocluster is 2-10nm. A water solution of the fluorescent
DNA-silver nanocluster looks light pink by
visual inspection, and looks shiny red under
irradiation of an
ultraviolet lamp with the
wavelength of 360nm. The water solution is excited by light with the
excitation wavelength of 530nm, the emission
wavelength is 570-800nm, and high
fluorescence emission strength is acquired at the
wavelength of 618nm;
rhodamine B is taken as a reference substance, and
fluorescence quantum yield is 35.3%. A method for detecting cupric ions and
pyrophosphate ions by the fluorescent DNA-silver nanocluster includes (1), drawing a response
standard curve of the corresponding ions to acquire a
linear regression equation; (2), substituting the detected
fluorescence strength into the
linear regression equation to obtain the concentration of the cupric ions or the
pyrophosphate ions. The fluorescent DNA-silver nanocluster has the advantages of stable performance and environment friendliness, the detection method is rapid and simple, and the detection sensitivity is high.
