title: Flow-injection chemiluminescence study of Ce(IV)-Na2SO3-Tb(III)-fluoquinolone antibiotic system with DNA.
abstract: A novel flow injection chemiluminescence (CL) system is developed to determine DNA. According to the fact that DNA linearly quenches the CL intensity of Ce(IV)-Na(2)SO(3)-Tb(III)-fluoquinolone antibiotic (FLUQ) system, DNA concentration is determined. The calibration graphs are linear in the range of 0.04-10 microg/ml (for both natural and denatured DNA), and the 3sigma limits of detection are 7.8 ng/ml (natural DNA) and 9.5 ng/ml (denatured DNA). According to fluorescence spectrum and CL spectrum, and through studying the reaction of Ce(IV)-Na(2)SO(3)-Tb(III)-FLUQ with nucleotides and bases, we conclude that DNA counteracts the energy transfer from FLUQ to Tb(III), and this function is related to both bases and phosphate groups in DNA.
