In this study, a conversion method and molecular imprinting technology were used to design MIP-based ratiometric fluorescence test papers. The ZnO QDs acted as the background quantum dots and ZIF-8 raw material, while CDs were used as the identification signals. The selective function of the imprinting layer enabled the design of a ZnO@ZIF-8/CDs@MIPs sensor for detecting BPA. The sensor exhibited a fast response time and effective detection in complex environments, with a detection limit of 0.778 nM and a linear range of 0-60 nM.
In this study, a conversion method and molecular imprinting technology were used to design molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP)-based ratiometric fluorescence test papers. The ZnO quantum dots (ZnO QDs) acted as the background quantum dots and ZIF-8 raw material. Carbon dots (CDs) were used as the identification signals. The imprinting layer achieved a selective function. Therefore, a ZnO@ZIF-8/CDs@MIPs sensor was designed for the detection of Bisphenol A (BPA). The sensor exhibited a fast response time for BPA detection. In addition, the sensor demonstrated that effective detection of BPA can still be achieved in complex environments. The detection limit of this sensor was 0.778 nM with a linear range of 0-60 nM. The corresponding test solutions exhibited clear changes from blue to yellow. The selectivity experiments results demonstrated that ZnO@ZIF-8/CDs@MIPs only exhibit excellent selective recognition effect for BPA. ZnO@ZIF-8/CDs@MIPs-2 was used for the detection of BPA in canned food and compared with the results of HPLC detection of BPA. The two spiked recovery ranges were 96.58-102.04% and 97.43-103.82%, respectively. In addition, the prepared ZnO@ZIF-8/CDs@MIPs-2 test paper visually recognized BPA under ultraviolet light. This study provides guidelines for the design and application of fluorescent test papers for quick detection in practical applications.
