Abstract
A carbon dot/polyacrylamide (CDs/PAM) composite hydrogel film with stable fluorescence performance was fabricated by merging a hydrogel film and carbon dots (CDs) with blue fluorescence, which were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis using anhydrous citric acid and acrylamide as carbon sources. The obtained CDs/PAM composite hydrogel film exhibited a good fluorescence quenching effect on ornidazole (ONZ), and can be used for the quantitative detection of ONZ. In the ONZ concentration range of 5-60 μM, a good linear relationship between the fluorescence quenching efficiency of the CDs/PAM composite hydrogel film and the concentration of ONZ solution was obtained with a low detection limit of 2.35 μM. In addition, the detection system has good selectivity and strong anti-interference capacity, and can be used in repeated cycles for detection.
