Turn-On Fluorescence Sensor for Intracellular Imaging of Glutathione Using g-C3N4 Nanosheet–MnO2 Sandwich Nanocomposite
Abstract
Herein, a novel fluorescence sensor based on g-C3N4 nanosheet-MnO2 sandwich nanocomposite has been developed for rapid and selective sensing of glutathione (GSH) in aqueous solutions, as well as living cells. The graphitic-phase C3N4 (g-C3N4) nanosheet used here is a new type of carbon-based nanomaterial with high fluorescence quantum yield and high specific surface area. We demonstrate a facile one-step approach for the synthesis of a g-C3N4 nanosheet-MnO2 sandwich nanocomposite for the first time. The fluorescence of g-C3N4 nanosheet in this nanocomposite is quenched, which attributing to fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from a g-C3N4 nanosheet to the deposited MnO2. Upon the addition of GSH, MnO2 is reduced to Mn(2+), which leads to the elimination of FRET. As a result, the fluorescence of g-C3N4 nanosheet is restored. Importantly, the chemical response of the g-C3N4-MnO2 nanocomposite exhibits great selectivity toward GSH relative to other electrolytes and biomolecules. Under the optimal conditions, the detection limit of 0.2 μM for GSH in aqueous solutions can be reached. Furthermore, the g-C3N4-MnO2 nanocomposite is confirmed to be membrane-permeable and have low cytotoxicity. Moreover, we successfully apply this sensor for visualizing and monitoring change of the intracellular GSH in living cells. Moreover, the proposed sensor shows satisfying performance, such as low cost, easy preparation, rapid detection, good biocompatibility, and turn-on fluorescence response.

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.
