Abstract:
      A simple and sensitive optical sensor for Ag+was developed based on its recognition of C-C mismatched base pair and nucleic acid molecule “light switch” property of Ru(phen)2(7,8-dimethyldipyridophenazine)2+.A self-complementary oligonucleotide containing cytosine-cytosine mismatched base pair,5-TACATACTATACTATCTA-3-(oligo-1),was designed as the sequence for sensing of silver ion.In the absence of silver ion,the hybridization between the oligo-1 strands would not occur because of the existence of cytosine- cytosine mismatched base pair.However,after adding the silver ion,hybridization occurred between the two oligo-1 strands because of the formation of cytosine-Ag+-cytosine base pair,the formed double-helix DNA prevented the luminescence of nucleic acid molecule “light switch” Ru(phen)2(7,8-dimethyldipyridophenazine)2+ from the quenching of water.As a result,the luminescence of Ru(phen)2(dppx)2+ increased dramatically.Based upon this mechanism,a simple and sensitive method for the detection of silver ion was established.Different factors including concentrations of oligo-1,Ru(phen)2(dppx)2+,NaNO3,pH value and incubation time were investigated.The optimum conditions were as followins:Oligo-1:150 nmol/L,Ru(phen)2(dppx)2+:2.0 μmol/L,NaNO3:120 mmol/L,buffer:20 mmol/L pH 7.5 PBS,incubation time:30 min.Under the optimal conditions,the luminescence intensity was proportional to concentration of Ag+over the range of 10.0-120.0 nmol/L,with a correlation coefficient(r) of 0.995 7.The limit of detection(3δ/Slope) was 8.1 nmol/L.With a good selectivity,the method was applied in the determination of Ag+in practical samples with satisfactory results.
