New Off-On Sensor for Captopril Sensing Based on Photoluminescent MoO _x Quantum Dots.

ABSTRACT: Molybdenum oxide nanomaterials have recently attracted widespread attention for their unique optical properties and catalytic performance. However, until now, there is little literature on the application of photoluminescent molybdenum oxide nanomaterials in biological and pharmaceutical sensing. Herein, photoluminescent molybdenum oxide quantum dots (MoO _x QDs) were synthesized via a facile method, and then, the synthesized MoO _x QDs were further applied as a new type of photoluminescent probe to design a new off-on sensor for captopril (Cap) determination on the basis of the fact that the quenched photoluminescence of MoO _x QDs by Cu²⁺ was restored with Cap through specific interaction between the thiol group of Cap and Cu<
