Quick and effective detection of biothiols in biological fluids has gained increasing attention due to its vital biological functions. In this paper, a novel reversible fluorescence chemosensor (-Cu) based on a benzocoumarin-Cu ensemble has been developed for the detection of biothiols (Cys, Hcy and GSH) in human urine. The chemosensing ensemble (-Cu) contains a 2:1 stoichiometry structure between fluorescent ligand and paramagnetic Cu. was found to exclusively bond with Cu ions accompanied with a dramatic fluorescence quenching maximum at 443 nm and an increase of an absorbance band centered at 378 nm. Then, the in situ generated fluorescence sluggish ensemble, -Cu, was successfully used as a chemosensor for the detection of biothiols with a fluorescence "OFF-ON" response modality. Upon the addition of biothiols, the decomplexation of -Cu led to the liberation of the fluorescent ligand, , resulting in the recovery of fluorescence and absorbance spectra. Studies revealed that -Cu possesses simple synthesis, excellent stability, high sensitivity, reliability at a broad pH range and desired renewability (at least 5 times). The practical application of -Cu was then demonstrated by the detection of biothiols in human urine sample.
由于生物硫醇在生物中的重要生物学功能,因此快速有效地检测生物硫醇引起了越来越多的关注。在本文中,基于苯并[ c ]香豆素-Cu 配合物,设计了一种新型的用于检测人尿中生物硫醇(半胱氨酸,同型半胱氨酸和谷胱甘肽)的可逆荧光化学传感器(-Cu)。化学传感器配合物(-Cu)包含荧光配体 和顺磁性 Cu 的 2:1 化学计量结构。发现 仅与 Cu 离子结合,伴随着在 443nm 处的荧光猝灭最大值和在 378nm 处的吸收带的增加。然后,原位生成的荧光迟缓配合物 -Cu 被成功用作生物硫醇的化学传感器,具有荧光“关-开”响应模式。加入生物硫醇后,-Cu 的解络合导致荧光配体 的释放,从而恢复荧光和吸收光谱。研究表明,-Cu 具有简单的合成、优异的稳定性、高灵敏度、在较宽的 pH 范围内的可靠性以及所需的可重复使用性(至少 5 次)。然后通过检测人尿样中的生物硫醇来证明 -Cu 的实际应用。
