Determination of cis-diol-containing flavonoids in real samples using boronate affinity quantum dots coated with imprinted silica based on controllable oriented surface imprinting approach.
Novel boronate affinity imprinted quantum dots (BA-CdTe@MIPs QDs) were used to develop a selective and sensitive fluorescent nanosensor for determination of cis-diol-containing flavonoids such as quercetin (Qu), baicalein (Bai) and luteolin (Lut) based on controllable oriented surface imprinting approach. The boronate affinity imprinted silica was used as recognition elements. Under the optimum conditions, the imprinting factor (IF) for Qu, Bai and Lut was evaluated to be 9.42, 6.58 and 10.91, respectively. The results indicated that the boronate affinity quantum dots coated with imprinted silica were successfully prepared. The obtained BA-CdTe@MIPs QDs provided high selectivity and high sensitivity for cis-diol-containing flavonoids such as quercetin and luteolin. The BA-CdTe@MIPs QDs exhibited linear decrease in fluorescence intensity with the increase of concentration of quercetin in the 0.05-25 μM concentration range. The detection limit (LOD) is evaluated to be 0.02 μM. The obtained fluorescent nanosensor could be successfully applied to efficient detection of cis-diol-containing flavonoids in onion skin and human urine samples. The recoveries for the spiked onion skin and urine samples were evaluated to be 83.50-104.00% and 86.67-105.00%, respectively. Clearly, this study provides a rapid and efficient fluorescent detection tool for cis-diol-containing flavonoids in real samples.

CdTe quantum dots (QDs) improve the affinities of baicalein and genistein for human serum albumin in vitro.
Baicalein and genistein were studied for the affinities for human serum albumin (HSA) in the presence and absence of three CdTe quantum dots (QDs) with different sizes. Three typical CdTe QDs with maximum emissions of 535 nm (green-emitting, G-QDs), 598 nm (yellow-emitting, Y-QDs), and 654 nm (red-emitting, R-QDs) were tested. The fluorescence intensities of HSA decreased remarkably with increasing concentration of QDs. Baicalein resulted in an obvious blue-shift of the λ(em) of HSA from 340 to 334 nm. However, the extents of blue-shifts induced by baicalein and genistein in the presence of QDs were much bigger than that in the absence of QDs. The quenching process of baicalein for HSA was easily affected by the QDs size than that of genistein. QDs increased the quenching constant from 136.97% to 162.24% for baicalein. However, QDs only increased the quenching constants from 20.56% to 32.23% for genistein. G-QDs, Y-QDs, and R-QDs increased the affinities of baicalein for HSA about 3.02%, 6.38% and 9.40%. G-QDs, Y-QDs, and R-QDs increased the affinities of genistein for HSA about 2.56%, 13.46% and 19.44%. The binding affinities of baicalein and genistein for HSA increased with increasing QDs size.
