Abstract

In this article, a new spectrofluorometric method was developed for the determination of methamphetamine based on a turn-on luminescence response of captopril modified Y2O3:Eu3+ nanoparticles (NPs). Y2O3:Eu3+ nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The fluorescence of captopril modified Y2O3:Eu3+ at 612 nm increased in the presence of methamphetamine. Based on this phenomenon, an appropriate method for the sensitive assay of methamphetamine was developed. After optimization, fluorescence intensity changes according to the Langmuir binding isotherm equation which is linearly proportional to the concentration of methamphetamine in the range of 0.2–30 μM with the detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.14 μM. Relative standard deviation for 4 replicated results of 1 μM methamphetamine is 0.18%. All the measurements were carried out at biological pH and room temperature under ambient conditions. The sensing mechanism was suggested to arise from the fluorescence enhancement induced by the interaction between the modified NPs and methamphetamine.
