A colorimetric heparin assay based on the inhibition of the oxidase mimicking activity of cerium oxide nanoparticles
A colorimetric method is described for the sensitive detection of heparin (Hep). It is based on the finding that Hep can effectively inhibit the oxidase mimicking activity of cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoce...

Water-dispersed fluorescent silicon nanodots as probes for fluorometric determination of picric acid via energy transfer
Water-dispersed fluorescent silicon nanodots (SiNDs) were synthesized by a one-pot hydrothermal method starting from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as silicon source and trisodium citrate as reducing reagent....

Fluorometric turn-on determination of the activity of alkaline phosphatase by using WS2 quantum dots and enzymatic cleavage of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate
A method is described for the determination of the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). It is based on the reversible modulation of the fluorescence of WS2 quantum dots (QDs). The fluorescence of the QDs is qu...

MoS2 quantum dots modified with a labeled molecular beacon as a ratiometric fluorescent gene probe for FRET based detection and imaging of microRNA
A dual-channel ratiometric nanoprobe is described for detection and imaging of microRNA. It was prepared from MoS2 quantum dots (QDs; with blue emission and excitation/emission peaks at 310/398 nm) which acts as ...

A highly selective colorimetric sulfide assay based on the inhibition of the peroxidase-like activity of copper nanoclusters
The authors report that sulfide ions are capable of inhibiting the peroxidase-like activity of copper nanoclusters (CuNCs). The catalytic activity of CuNCs toward the oxidation of the chromogenic substrate 3,3...
