摘要
A new method based on photochemical formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was developed for detection of tyrosine (Tyr). To selectively detect Tyr and to simplify the detection procedure, the photoactivity of Tyr was utilized to trigger the photochemical reduction in production of AgNPs. The drastic change of solution color caused by the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption band of the formed AgNPs was used to extract the quantitative information of Tyr. This developed method is simple in detection, while both the sensitivity and selectivity are significant improved. Meanwhile, the solution color was changed from colorless to dark yellow after the formation of AgNPs, which allows a much higher sensitivity in visual identification when compared with the SPR band shifting technique commonly, used in conventional colorimetric methods. To optimize the detection system and to understand the mechanism in this proposed method, parameters such as irradiation time, intensity of light source, and the concentration of Tyr were systematically examined. Results indicated that these factors mainly affected the reaction rate of photoreduction. The morphologies of the formed AgNPs were similar, but with small differences in particle sizes. In the examination of selectivity, sixteen other amino acids were examined. Results indicated that only amino acids of tryptophan, cysteine and histidine are photoactive and possess potential interferences in analysis of Tyr. Quantitative studies indicated that a linear response up to 10 μM with a detection limit of 100 nM could be obtained. For visually detection, color change could be observed with a concentration as low as 500 nM of Tyr.Copyright © 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
