Abstract: A water-soluble fluorescence polymer poly[5-methoxy-2-(3-sulfopropoxy)-1,4-phenylene-vinylene](MPS-PPV) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared absorption spectrun and the transmission electron microscope micrograph. The fluorescence of MPS-PPV could be quenched by poly-L-lysine(PLL), a new food preservative. So a rapid and sensitive method for the determination of PLL was set up, the linear range and detection limit were 3.6×10-92.5×10-8 mol/L and 5.0×10-10 mol/L respectively. The fluorescence quenching mechanism of PLL to MPS-PPV was also discussed, which was caused by the strong electrostatic interaction between cationic PLL and anion conjugated polymer MPS-PPV.
