Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Nucleic acid can greatly enhance the fluorescence intensity of quercetin in HMTA-HCl (pH 5.5) buffer. The enhanced intensity is in proportion to the concentration of nucleic acids in the range 5.0 x 10(-9) to 1.0 x 10(-6) g/mL for fsDNA, 5.0 x 10(-9) to 7.0 x 10(-7) g/mL for ctDNA and 5.0 x 10(-9) to 1.0 x 10(-6) g/mL for yRNA, and their detection limits (S/N = 3) are 3.5 x 10(-9), 7.8 x 10(-10) and 2.6 x 10(-9) g/mL, respectively. In comparison with most reported fluorescent probes for the determination of nucleic acids, the proposed probe has higher sensitivity and lower toxicity. The interaction investigation indicates that quercetin binds with double-strand DNA in groove binding mode, resulting in fluorescence enhancement of this system.
