The polyelectrolyte microspheres（CMC/CS microspheres） were fabricated by using anioniccationic electrostatic attraction between CMC and CS by high voltage electrostatic spray technology. The aggregating process of GQDs was based on the anionic-cationic electrostatic attraction as well. After combing with the polyelectrolyte microspheres, the fluorescence of GQDs disappeared. CHS, which widely consists in the cell surface of human beings and animals, carries a large number of negative charges on the surface. The addition of CHS enabled CHS and GQDs to compete with each other to composite with the CMC/CS microshpheres. As a result of the higher surface charge density of CHS, CMC/CS-CHS formed accompanied by the release of GQDs, and the fluorescence of the system recovered. The CHS content was detected by analyzing the system＇s fluorescence recovery, which suggested that the obtained fluorescence biosensor can accurately detect the concentration of CHS. The test results showed that the linear range of the fluorescence recovery for this biosensor with respect to CHS was 0~12.00 mg/mL, and the detection limit was 10-8 M. Besides, to test the stability of the biosensor, the CMC/CS-GQDs micropsheres persisted for one month, with a low fluorescence quenching of 9.48%. These results suggested that CMC/CS-GQDs can be utilized as efficient fluorescence biosensor for the detection of CHS. Moreover, the detection method was simple and efficient, and could be widely popularized.展开更多
