Melamine is an emerging contaminant in milk, infant formula and pet food. In order to
increase the “false” apparent protein content in food products, melamine has been artificially …

Illegal adulteration of milk products by melamine and its analogs has become a threat to the
world. In 2008, the misuse of melamine with infant formula caused serious effects on babies …

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) based on plasmonic metal nanoparticles and
semiconductors has been used as performance-enhancing structures for sensing trace …

Multiple methods have been published to detect melamine, only a few offer sensitivities
below 50 nM with complicated procedures and sophisticated equipments. We demonstrate …

A chemiluminescent cholesterol sensor with good selectivity and enhanced sensitivity was
constructed based upon the peroxidase-like activity of cupric oxide nanoparticles. Cupric …

In this research, graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots (g-CNQDs) were prepared by a
simple and one-step microwave-assisted approach and characterized by X-ray diffraction …

In this work, blue-emitting silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) were prepared in a matrix of single-
stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) on the basis of ambient hydrothermal reactions. DNA …

We have synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) decorated with α-cyclodextrin (CD) by
using the traditional silver mirror reaction in the presence of CD. The CD-AgNPs were used …

A novel selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs)-amplified chemiluminescence (CL) reaction, Se
NPs–potassium permanganate–dinitrobutylphenol (DNBP), for the determination of DNBP at …

In this study, we have developed a method for rapid, highly efficient and selective detection
of melamine. The negatively charged citrate ions form an electrostatic layer on gold …
