“…The typical analysis methods for antibiotics mainly rely on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) [ 3 ], enzymatic immunoassay (EI) [ 4 ], capillary electrophoresis (CE) [ 5 ], and fluorescence analysis [ 6 , 7 ]. Compared with the other three methods, fluorescence-based methods do not depend on complex and expensive instrument, do not need large amount of eluent, and do not require rigorous pH, temperature and oxygen conditions [ 8 ]. Moreover, fluorescence-based method often has comparable level of sensitivity and lowest detection limit (LOD) with the former three methods, commonly in μM to nM concentration [ 9 ].…”
