Competition-Induced Binding Spherical Nucleic AcidFluorescence Amplifier for the Detection of Di (2-ethylhexyl) Phthalate in the Aquatic Environment.

ABSTRACT: Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) is a toxic plasticizer and androgen antagonist. Its accumulation in water exceeds national drinking water standards and it must be continuously and effectively regulated. Currently, methods used to detect DEHP are still unsatisfactory because they usually have limited detection sensitivity and require complex operating procedures. A competition-induced fluorescence detection method was developed for the selective detection of DEHP in an aquatic environment. An aptamer with walking function was used as the recognition element for DEHP, and its quantification was induced by competition to change the fluorescence signal. The detection range was 0.01~100 µg/L, and the detection limit was 1.008 μg/L. This high-sensitivity DEHP detection capability and simplified
