FB has an irreversible electro-oxidation peak in 5 mmol/L Tris-HCl buffer solution at pH = 7.4 on a glassy carbon electrode(GCE). After adding certain concentration of dsDNA, the oxidation peak current of FB decreases, but the peak potential hardly changes. The visible absorption spectroscopic study shows that the binding mode of FB to dsDNA is intercalative binding and electrostatic binding when the ratio of the concentration of dsDNA to FB is smaller than 0. 2, and anew substance, which produces a new absorption peak, is obtained via a covalent binding between dsDNA and FB apart from intercalative binding and electrostatic binding when the ratio of the concentration of dsDNA to FB is larger than 0. 2. The visible absorption spectra varies no longer when the ratio of the concentration of dsDNA'to FB is larger than 1.5. A mean binding ratio of dsDNA to FB was determined to be 1.4: 1, suggesting that two complexes FB-dsDNA and FB-2dsDNA be formed. The interaction between FB and ssDNA was only electrostatic binding. The more powerful interaction of FB with dsDNA than with ssDNA may be applied for the recognition of dsDNA and ssDNA, and in DNA biosensor as hybridization indicator.展开更多

In this work, a visible photocatalyst of S-doped graphene quantum dots (S-GQDs) was prepared by a facile hydrothermal synthesis using 1,3,6-trinitropyrene and Na2S as precursors. The well crystallization and monodispersity as well as the chemical environment of S-GQDs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, atom force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectrum. A superior photocatalytic performance of S-GQDs was demonstrated for degradation of basic fuchsin under visible light irradiation. Furthermore, the possible photocatalytic mechanism was proposed based on the trapping experiments of active species.展开更多
