Abstract

β-cyclodextrin-hydroxyquinoline functionalized graphene oxide (GO-CD-HQ) was facilely fabricated to monitor and quantitatively analyze cations in aqueous media. The optical probe was notably selective enhanced toward Pb2+ ions over the other tested ions like Cu2+, Hg2+, Ca2+, Na+, K+, Zn2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Ag+, Mg2+, and Cd2+ at 468nm as an emission wavelength. The probe was shown the best performance in pH value, 5, and optimum time 1min. Absorption spectra have clearly confirmed the static type fluorescence enhancement mechanism of GO-CD-HQ. Under the optimal conditions, the detection limit of it and linear concentration range for Pb2+ ions were obtained as 3.72 × 10-5M and (5-60) × 10-5M, respectively. Additionally, the developed assay exhibited logic gate behavior with Pb2+ ions and vitamin C as a masking agent for cited ions.
