Abstract
Dopamine (DA) and Fe3+ as the important bioactive ingredients, playing an indispensable role in human metabolism. Therefore, developing the accurate detection of DA and Fe3+ is of great significance for disease screening. Herein, we put forward a simple, rapid, and sensitive fluorescent detection strategy for the detection of dopamine and Fe3+ based on Rhodamine B-modified MOF-808 (RhB@MOF-808). RhB@MOF-808 produced strong fluorescence at 580 nm, and the fluorescence was significantly quenched after DA or Fe3+ was added, which was regarded as a static quenching process. Detection limits are as low as 60.25 nM and 48.34 nM, respectively. Furthermore, based on the responses of DA and Fe3+ to the probe, molecular logic gates were successfully designed. More importantly, RhB@MOF-808 had excellent cell membrane permeability and had been successfully used to label DA and Fe3+ in Hela cells, which presented a potential biological application value as a fluorescent probe for detecting DA and Fe3+.
