Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) recently emerge as a superior and universal
fluorophores because of their unique combination of a number of key merits, including
small in size, excellent photostability, biocompatibility, and highly tunable
photoluminescence properties. These glowing carbon nanocrystals provide
unprecedented opportunities for bioimaging and optical sensing. In this research, the
usage of optical fiber which is tapered multimode fiber (TMMF) is used for detection
of lard. Prior to this, several methods that have been introduced include electronic nose
(zNose), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, high performance liquid
chromatography/tandem mass spectroscopy (HPC-MS/MS) and polymerase chain
reaction (PCR). However, all of these techniques require large detector and are time
consuming. In this research, detection of lard was done using optical fiber
characterization of GQDs and GQDs coated with gold nanoparticles (Au-GQDs),
more reliable and environmentally friendly fluorescence fiber probe sensor. TMMF
with 20nm diameter was chosen and then coated with GQDs or Au-GQDs using drop
casting method. The main interest of the investigation was to identify the effect of
combining TMMF with GQDs and Au-GQDs as the nanoparticles. The
characterization of annealing effects at different temperature of the GQDs and Au-
GQDs shows that at 70oC and 100oC respectively gives the highest sensitivity. Three
types of TMMF probe sensors were then used to detect lard with different
concentrations, ranging from 20% to 100%. The fluorescence responses of the sensor
were investigated for uncoated TMMF and TMMF coated with GQD and Au-GQDs.
The result from this study shows that TMMF coated with GQDs and annealed in 70oC
gives better and strong fluorescence emission peak at 652nm. However, the sensitivity
of lard detection achieved is 0.034/a.u.%. By introducing Au NPs to GQD creating
Au-GQDs TMMF probe sensor, the peak shifted to 680nm and give the highest sensitivity and linearity of detection which are 0.042/a.u.% and 85% respectively at
100oC. The difference in the annealing temperature resulted in different carbon-carbon
bond formation between the carbons of fats bound with the carbon from GQDs. Then,
the mixture of carbon-carbon bond became excited and the energy was emitted as
fluorescence. Throughout this research work, an in-depth understanding on GQDs and
Au-GQDs as fluorescent sensing platform in detection of lard concentration via
fluorescence fiber probe sensor was studied. As well as an investigation on the binding
process between GQDs and Au-GQDs with the lard to perform fluorescence emission.
Ultimately, this research work achieved its goals to develop a method to detect lard
concentration via fluorescence fiber probe sensor. |
