Abstract
Excess formaldehyde (FA) is a strong carcinogen, so the development of a rapid visualized and portable formaldehyde detection platform is of great research importance. A multi-color fluorescence sensing system constituted of model compound (NAHN) and red-emitting InP/ZnS QDs was constructed herein, which can simultaneously realize fluorometric-colorimetric dual-mode sensing when exposed to FA environment. Its preparation process was simplified, the detection process was green, and the limits of detection (LOD) were 0.623 μM and 0.791 μM, respectively. The high recoveries of FA in actual water samples indicated that the sensor had broad application prospects. The prepared fluorescent film can be utilized for rapid visual simulation analysis of FA on the surface of various fruits and vegetables. In addition, a serial logic gate was designed to quickly semi-quantitatively assess FA concentration, which promoted the realization of on-site intelligent evaluation of FA.
