On the basis of the comparison between calculated and experimental results, it is concluded that the B3PW91 and B3LYP methods are superior to the others in optimizing structures, and the BPW91 method reproduces the observed fundamental fre-quencies most satisfactorily.展开更多

The sensor exhibits a linear response to Amrinon in the range of 7 98×10 -7 —1 52×10 -4 mol/L at pH 3 28—4 04. The response mainly originates from the Primary Inner Filter Effect, which causes a decrease in the fluorescence intensity of the sensor membrane. The distinct advantages of the proposed sensor are of full reversibility, high sensitivity and selectivity as well as short response time(<1 min), indicating that the sensor can be used to monitor Amrinon in serum samples.展开更多
