Abstrakt: A novel colorimetric nanosensor is reported for the selective and sensitive determination of cysteine using magnetic-sulfur, nitrogen graphene quantum dots (Fe 3 O 4 /S, N-GQDs), and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). Thus, S, N-GQDs was firstly immobilized on Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles through its magnetization in the presence of Fe 3+ in the alkali solution. The prepared Fe 3 O 4 /S, N-GQDs were dispersed in cysteine solution resulting in its quick adsorption on the surface of the Fe 3 O 4 /S, N-GQDs through hydrogen bonding interaction. Then, Au NPs solution was added to this mixture that after a short time, the color of Au NPs changed from red to blue, the intensity of surface plasmon resonance peak of Au NPs at 530 nm decreased, and a new peak at a higher wavelength of 680 nm appeared. The effective parameters on cysteine quantification were optimized via response surface methodology using the central composite design. Under optimum conditions, the absorbance ratio (A 680 /A 530 ) has a linear proportionality with cysteine concentration in the range of 0.04-1.20 μmol L -1 with a limit of detection of 0.009 μmol L -1 . The fabrication of the reported nanosensor is simple, fast, and is capable of efficient quantification of ultra traces of cysteine in human serum and urine real samples.
