Abstract
Vitamin B12 plays a significant role in maintaining human health. Deficiency or excess intake of vitamin B12 may cause some diseases. Therefore, it is significant to fabricate sensors for sensitive assay of vitamin B12. In the past few years, a variety of nanomaterials have been developed for the fluorescence detection of vitamin B12 in tablets, injection, human serum and food. In the review, the assay mechanisms of fluorescent nanomaterials for sensing vitamin B12 were first briefly discussed. And the progress of various nanomaterials for fluorescence detection of vitamin B12 were systematically summarized. Furthermore, the sensing performance of fluorescent nanosensors was compared with fluorescent probes. Lastly, the challenges and perspectives about the topic were presented.
