Abstract

Chemically converted graphene (CCG) was found to greatly enhance the fluorescence response of squaraine (SQ) dyes to bovine serum albumin (BSA). Addition of BSA to the SQ–CCG solution, where squaraine dyes absorbed on the CCG surface, raised the fluorescence intensity by as much as 80 fold.
