Lead ion (Pb2+) is known as a major non-degradable environmental pollutant and is quite harmful to human health. In our investigation, a novel ratiometric fluorescent nanosensor with DNA-AgNCs as single fluorophore has been successfully constructed for ultrasensitive and specific detection of Pb2+. The single-strand DNA templated silver nanoclusters present green emission, which can be converted into red emission after approaching a specific DNA segment by forming duplex with its complementary DNA strands (ds-DNA-AgNCs). The ds-DNA-AgNCs contains rA cleavage site of Pb2+-dependent DNAzyme configuration. In the presence of Pb2+, the specific DNA segment would be released from the ds-DNA-AgNCs, resulting in discoloration of DNA-AgNCs from red to green. Since Pb2+ can successively cleave the rA site, the signal change from red to green emission is amplified. Thus, benefiting from the Pb2+-dependent DNAzyme and the charming properties of DNA-AgNCs, the proposed platform exhibits a good linear relationship from 0.001 nM to 10 nM with a detection limit of 1.0 pM for Pb2+ determination, which is lower than most of the reported Pb2+ biosensors. Moreover, this sensitive ratiometric fluorescent probe exhibits excellent selectivity toward Pb2+ detection in real samples, such as lake water, tap water, and human serum samples, illustrating the huge potential applications for complicated samples in the future.
