Abstract
In this work, we show that gallic acid can significantly inhibit the chemiluminescence (CL) intensity of carbon quantum dots (CQDs)‐enhanced K3Fe(CN)6–luminol system. Under optimum conditions, the decrease in the CL intensity is proportional to the concentration of gallic acid over the range 0.01–1.0 μM, and the detection limit is 1.0 nM. The relative standard deviation of repeated intraday and interday determinations of gallic acid was 1.2–4.2%. This method was successfully applied to the determination of gallic acid in food samples, with recoveries in the range 94.0–103.0%. A possible mechanism of CL is discussed.
