Abstract: Core-shell CdTe/CdS quantum dots(QDs) were synthesized using mercaptoacetic acid as stabilizer. A novel method for the determination of palmatine chloride(PC) was developed based on the quenching of the fluorescence of CdTe/CdS QDs at an excitation wavelength of 340 nm. Fluorescence spectrometry and ultraviolet-visible(UV-Vis) absorption spectra were utilized to study the interaction between CdTe/CdS QDs and PC. With the optimum reaction conditions of pH=7.4 Tris-HCl buffer solution, the quenched fluorescence intensity of CdTe/CdS QDs was linearly proportional to the concentration of PC with a correlation coefficient of r=0.997, and the detection limits were in the range of 25-1×104 ng/mL and the detection limit(3σ) for PC was 7.7 ng/mL. This new method can quickly, simply, conveniently and quantitatively detemine PC.
