Accurate and Real‐Time Detection Method for the Exothermic Behavior of Enzymatic Nano‐Microregions Using Temperature‐Sensitive Amino‐AgInS2 Quantum Dots
Abstract:The thermal behavior of enzymes in nanoscale is of great significance to life phenomena. This nonequilibrium state real‐time thermal behavior of enzymes at nanoscale cannot be accurately detected by existing methods. Herein, a novel method is developed for the detection of this thermal behavior. The enzyme‐quantum dot (QD) conjugates can be obtained by chemically grafting temperature‐sensitive amino‐AgInS2 QDs to the enzyme, where the QDs act as nanothermometers with a sensitivity of −2.82% °C−1. Detecting the… Show more
“…The method yielded a detection limit of 0.02 mg mL À1 of enzyme and a temperature resolution of around 0.5 1C. 257 pH sensing. The value of pH plays an important role in biological systems, and abnormal pH can also be used as a pathological microenvironment feature for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.…”
