▎ 摘　　要

A photoluminescent aptasensor has been developed for the detection of lysozyme based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the carbon dots (CDs) and graphene oxide (GO). In the sensing system, the CDs-labeled aptamer is adsorbed onto the GO surface and the photoluminescence (PL) signal of the CDs is effectively quenched by GO. Addition of lysozyme can cause a significant FRET inhibition and recover the PL signal of the CDs due to the specific combination of lysozyme and its aptamer and the removal of the CDs-labeled aptamer from GO surface. Under optimal conditions, the ratio of PL intensity change at 440nm of the sensing system before and after the addition of lysozyme shows a good linear relationship against the concentration of lysozyme in the range of 0.01-2g/mL, with a low detection limit of 1x10(-3)g/mL. In addition, the aptasensor has good selectivity so it can distinguish lysozyme with no or little interference by many other biomolecules. It was applied to the detection of lysozyme in human sera with satisfactory recoveries. The results demonstrate the applicability of the aptasensor for monitoring lysozyme in real samples.
