Abstract

A method for preparing a ratiometric fluorescent sensor for phycoerythrin based on a magnetic molecularly imprinted core-shell polymer is provided. With Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles as the core, blue fluorescence-emitting carbon quantum dots (B-CDs) are coupled on the surfaces of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles, and SiO2 shells carrying template molecules (phycoerythrin) are grown on the surfaces of Fe3O4/B-CDs. Then, the molecularly imprinted polymer SiO2-MIPs are obtained by eluting the template molecules, that is, Fe3O4/B-CDs/SiO2-MIPs are obtained. Fluorescence emission spectra of the dispersion of Fe3O4/B-CDs/SiO2-MIPs in the presence of different concentrations of phycoerythrin are measured. By fitting the linear relationship between the ratios Iphycoerythrin/IB-CDs of fluorescence emission peak intensities of phycoerythrin and B-CDs and the molar concentrations of phycoerythrin, the ratiometric fluorescent sensor for phycoerythrin is constructed.
