RESUMO
We prepared the magnetic chitosan carbon quantum dot nanoparticles (Fe3O4@CQD NPs) via the hydrothermal treatment of chitosan biopolymer and then its magnetization with Fe3O4 nanoparticles. (4-Acetylphenyl)boronic acid compound was utilized for the modification of surface of Fe3O4@CQD nanoparticles via the covalent imine bond formation between NH2 groups of chitosan quantum dot with carbonyl functional of acetyl-substituted arylboronic acid. The synthesized Fe3O4@CQD@AP-B(OH)2 was characterized by FE-SEM, EDS, XRD, VSM and ICP-OES analysis and its fluorescence property was studied. This magnetic multifunctional nanoplatform sensor has shown high potential sensitivity for Cu2+ ions (in the range of 1.0-30.0 µM with limit of detection 0.3 µM) through interaction of cupric ions with the boronic-acid moiety.
