摘要
Tetracyclines (TCs) prevent the growth of peptide chains and the synthesis of proteins, and they are widely used to inhibit Gram-positive and -negative bacteria. For the detection of tetracyclines in cell and , a convenient and simple detection system based on nitrogen-doped cyan carbon quantum dots (C-CQDs) was developed. C-CQDs have excellent excitation-independent properties, the best optimal excitation peak is 360 nm and the best emission peak is 480 nm. Based on the inner filter effect (IFE), the fluorescence intensity of C-CQDs in solution decreases with the increase of tetracyclines. In the range of 0-100 μM, C-CQDs present a good linear relationship with three tetracyclines (CTC, TET, OCT), with all greater than 0.999. C-CQDs can detect tetracycline in milk samples with recovery in the range of 98.2-103.6%, which demonstrates their potential and broad application in real samples. Furthermore, C-CQDs exhibit excellent lysosomal targeting, as indicated by a Pearson's coefficient of 0.914 and an overlap of 0.985. The internalisation of C-CQDs was mainly affected by lipid raft-mediated endocytosis in endocytic pathway experiments. These experiments indicate that C-CQDs can be effectively used to detect TC content and target lysosomes as an alternative to commercial dyes.
