Fluorescence turn-on detection of glucose via the Ag nanoparticle mediated release of a perylene probe†
Abstract
A novel fluorescence turn-on strategy for glucose sensing is demonstrated. The fluorescence of a perylene probe could be quenched by the silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The Ag NPs could be etched by H2O2 generated from the enzymatic oxidation of glucose. And efficient probe fluorescence recovery was detected.
