Abstrakt: A one-step solvothermal synthesis provides a functional crystalline one-dimensional Zn-coordination polymer (Zn-CP) with excellent stability in aqueous solution over a wide range of temperature and pH. Zn-CP is a rapid, highly sensitive and selective sensor for detecting tetracycline (TC). Quantitative TC detection is based on the ratio of fluorescence intensities I 530 /I 420 , with a limit of detection (LOD) of 5.51 nM in aqueous solution and 47.17 nM in human urine. The characteristics of colorimetric TC sensing by Zn-CP are highly favorable for application because the color of Zn-CP changes in the visible part of the spectrum from blue-purple to yellow-green upon addition of TC. Conversion of these colors into an RGB signal is simply achieved with an app for the smart phone and provides LODs of 8.04 nM and 0.13 μM TC in water and urine, respectively. Our suggested sensing mechanisms assume that the fluorescence intensity of Zn-CP@TC at 530 nm is enhanced by energy transfer of Zn-CP to TC, while the fluorescence of Zn-CP at 420 nm is quenched by photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from TC to the organic ligand in Zn-CP. These fluorescence properties make Zn-CP a convenient, low-cost, rapid and green detection device for monitoring TC under physiological conditions and in aqueous media.
