The quench and recovery models of the moving exchange boundary (MEB) were established, simulated, and experimentally validated, showing their validity and potential for applications in biosensors, nanoparticle characterization, separation science, and ligand-QDs affinity assays.
Herein, the quench model of the moving exchange boundary (MEB) was first created via a ligand of 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitro-benzoic acid) (DTNB) and group of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) capped on QDs, and then the recovery model was formed via MPA and 2-nitro-5-thiobenzoic acid (TNB) capped on QDs. The theory on MEB dynamics and width was developed based on the two reversible models, the simulation was conducted for the illumination of MEB, and the protocol was described for the MEB runs. The experiments revealed that (i) the quench model could be created via DTNB and MPA capped on QDs and the recovery one could be in situ formed via MPA and TNB capped on QDs, showing the feasibility of MEB models; (ii) the simulations on MEB dynamics and width were in coincidence with the theoretic predictions, showing the validity of two models; and (iii) the experiments demonstrated the validity of models, predictions, and simulations. The models and theory have potential for development of a biosensor, nanoparticle characterization, separation science, and an affinity assay of ligand-QDs.
