Description

Water-soluble luminescent silver nanocluster and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of nano materials, in particular to a water-soluble luminescent silver nanocluster and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Pyrophosphate (PPi) is one of the most important biological anions and plays an important role in biological processes such as DNA and RNA polymerization, Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis, and regulation of enzyme activity, such as energy transduction, energy storage, cellular metabolism, gene regulation, and signal transduction. PPi is widely applied to food additives in the food industry, not only can compound metal ions to protect vitamin C from being damaged, but also can keep moisture of sausage and canned meat. PPi is also one of calcification inhibitors of organs such as muscles and blood vessels of the human body, and inhibits the conversion of amorphous salt into crystalline calcium phosphate, thereby inhibiting the growth of hydroxyapatite crystals, and thus it is often used as an anti-tartar ingredient of whitening toothpaste. However, recent studies have shown that excessive ingestion of PPi in humans increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, arthritis, chondrogenic calcification and calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPDD) in humans. In addition, PPi is one of the major phosphorus contaminants, and excessive phosphate concentrations in natural waters can result in eutrophication of waters, thereby reducing the concentration of dissolved oxygen, and ultimately, suffocation death of certain fish and other aquatic animals. Therefore, for the environment and human beings, it is of great significance to establish a rapid and sensitive method for detecting PPi.
Currently, many methods have been used to detect PPi, including chemiluminescence, enzymatic techniques, capillary electrophoresis, electrochemical sensing, and spectrophotometry, but these methods have the disadvantages of being time consuming, complex in sample pretreatment, expensive in apparatus, and cumbersome to operate. In recent years, fluorescence analysis methods have been widely studied in the field of analytical detection due to the advantages of easy operation, high sensitivity, fast signal response, low cost, real-time detection, almost no damage to samples, and the like. Common fluorescent materials are semiconductor quantum dots, organic fluorescent probes, and metal nanoclusters. Most quantum dot syntheses generally use highly toxic cadmium, and the synthesis process involves some toxic reagents. The preparation of organic fluorescent probes is complicated, and most probes are insoluble in water, so that the application of the organic fluorescent probes in biological systems is limited. The preparation process of the metal nanocluster is simple, organic and toxic solvents are hardly involved, and the metal nanocluster has the advantages of strong photoluminescence, good photobleaching property, water solubility and the like as those of quantum dot materials. The existing established method for detecting PPi by using metal nanoclusters is generally based on the phenomenon that PPi and metal ions are in strong coordination interaction, the metal ions (such as copper ions) induce fluorescence quenching of the nanomaterial, and the PPi is more capable of complexing the metal centers, so that the addition of PPi to the nanoclusters containing the metal ions can cause the fluorophore to be released into the solution again and the fluorescence is recovered. Since the fluorescence detection process relies on the fluorescence-shutdown process of copper ions, interference with the detection of thiol-containing species in PPi in complex matrices (e.g., serum) may be significant. Therefore, the development of reliable and sensitive fluorescence methods for the direct detection of PPi remains a great challenge.
Silver nanoclusters (AgNCs), one type of metal nanoclusters, have demonstrated tremendous applications in chemical/biological sensing and biological imaging. Compared with gold nanoclusters, AgNCs not only have lower cost, but also have the advantages of strong photoluminescence, good light stability, good water solubility and the like. At present, the literature reports that silver nanoclusters are prepared by using polymers, DNA, peptides, proteins and the like as templates are reported. Such as: min Yang et al (Journal of Alloys and Compounds,2019,781,1021-1027) synthesizes silver nanoparticles by using PVP as a ligand template and sodium borohydride and ascorbic acid as reducing agents and adopting a seed crystal method. Xiaodong Lin et al (Microchimica Acta,2019,186:648) purified AgNO3And mixing the solution and the DNA solution, incubating for 30 minutes, adding sodium borohydride serving as a reducing agent, and placing in a dark environment at 4 ℃ overnight to obtain the fluorescent AgNCs. Chuanxi Wang et al (Sensors and activators B, 2017,238: 1136-1143) sonicate for 15 minutes with glutathione GSH as a ligand and hydrazine hydrate as a reducing agent, precipitate silver nanoclusters by adding isopropanol, and centrifugally disperse in an aqueous solution to obtain fluorescent AgNCs. Guizou Yue et al (Sensors and activators B, 2019,287: 408-415) react BSA with AgNO3And mixing under an alkaline condition, and stirring for 2 hours at room temperature by using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent to obtain the fluorescent AgNCs. Xixiandong et al (journal of inorganic chemistry 2014,30(10),2341-2346) in the reaction of AgNO3And 3, 4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine under alkaline conditions (pH value is adjusted to 8.0 by NaOH), and the fluorescent silver nanocluster is obtained after 1h of sunlight irradiation. At present, the methods all need to add common reducing agents such as sodium borohydride, ascorbic acid, hydrazine hydrate and the like, are not beneficial to the stability of nanoclusters, and some methods also need to use NaOH with strong irritation and corrosiveness to control the pH of a system, so that the exploration of an environment-friendly, green and simple chemical synthesis method is very important for the development of AgNCs.

Comparative example 1
Comparative example 1 silver nanoclusters were synthesized using a photo-reduction method under alkaline conditions:
1 volume part of 2.0 mmol/L3, 4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine aqueous solution and 1 volume part of 1.0mmol/L silver nitrate solution are mixed uniformly, the pH value is adjusted to 8.0 by using NaOH, and the mixture is irradiated for 1 hour in the sunlight. The color of the solution is gradually changed from colorless to light red, and the excessive unreacted substances are purified by dialysis to obtain the silver nanoclusters. Under the ultraviolet light, when the fluorescent material is observed on a black background, the fluorescent material presents strong blue fluorescence, and the quantum yield is 2.30%.
Comparative example 1 was compared with example 8 and the results are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0002905235830000091
As can be seen from Table 1, the preparation process of example 8 does not require the addition of the strong basic compound NaOH and does not require exposure to ultraviolet light, which simplifies the operation method and avoids the damage to operators due to the strong irritation and corrosivity of NaOH and the radiation of ultraviolet light. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
(1) AgNO is used in the process of preparing silver nanocluster3And 3, 4-dihydroxy-L-benzeneThe alanine aqueous solution is acidic, and after the strong alkaline compound NaOH is added, a large amount of heat is emitted due to acid-base reaction violently, so that the temperature of the system is quickly raised, the reaction speed is accelerated, the nucleation speed of the silver nanocluster precursor is influenced, and the particle size of the silver nanocluster is uncontrollable.
(2) The mechanism of the mechanism is that high-energy ultraviolet light is utilized to irradiate a reaction solution to generate free radicals with high reduction capability, and then reduction reaction is carried out, but the light radiation has strong dependence on the external environment, and because the ultraviolet light intensity in all seasons and all time periods of a day is different, the experimental repeatability is poor, and the method is not suitable for wide application.
(3) In addition, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is strongly irritating and corrosive, dust or smoke can irritate the eyes and respiratory tract, corrode nasal septum, burns can be caused by direct contact of skin and eyes with sodium hydroxide, and burns of digestive tract, mucosal erosion, bleeding and shock can be caused by misuse. Excessive uv light exposure can cause side effects or permanent damage to some people's body, and can easily induce skin cancer. NaOH has strong corrosivity, and ultraviolet light has strong radiativity, so the NaOH easily causes harm to operators.
(4) According to the method, silver nitrate and 3, 4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine aqueous solution are mixed at room temperature, heating and refluxing are carried out for 24 hours, after 24 hours of reaction, oxidation-reduction reaction occurs between the silver nitrate and the 3, 4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine, a silver nanocluster precursor is gradually nucleated and aged to generate a silver nanocluster with stable luminescence property, and the particle size is controllable through 24 hours of slow reaction, so that the silver nanocluster with uniform particle size and excellent luminescence property is generated.
