title: Turn-on fluorescent InP nanoprobe for detection of cadmium ions with high selectivity and sensitivity.
abstract: We reported a "turn-on" fluorescent InP nanoprobe for detection of cadmium ions in hydrophobic and hydrophilic media. The method based on the turn-on fluorescence detection of cadmium ions has shown its high selectivity and sensitivity, which are independent of the pH of the tested samples. Also, this approach exhibits an immediate response to cadmium ions, and visualized detection of cadmium ions has further been demonstrated under a UV lamp.
