Turn-On and Near-Infrared Fluorescent Sensing for 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene Based on Hybrid (Gold Nanorod)−(Quantum Dots) Assembly
Abstract
In this study, we design a FRET system consisting of gold nanorod (AuNR) and quantum dots (QDs) for turn-on fluorescent sensing of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in near-infrared region. The amine-terminated AuNR and carboxyl-terminated QDs first form a compact hybrid assembly through amine-carboxyl attractive interaction, which leads to a high-efficiency (>92%) FRET from QDs to AuNRs and an almost complete emission quenching. Next, added TNT molecules break the preformed assembly because they can replace the QDs around AuNRs, based on the specific reaction of forming Meisenheimer complexes between TNT and primary amines. Thus, the FRET is switched off, and a more than 10 times fluorescent enhancement is obtained. The fluorescence turn-on is immediate, and the limit of detection for TNT is as low as 0.1 nM. Importantly, TNT can be well distinguished from its analogues due to their electron deficiency difference. The developed method is successfully applied to TNT sensing in real environmental samples.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
