Click chemistry-based fluorescence polarization sensor for sensitive detection of ampicillin.

Ampicillin (AMP) is a β-lactam antibiotic that can inhibit bacterial wall synthesis. The overuse and misuse of AMP makes it micropollutant that commonly found in food and various environmental media. In this work, a fluorescence polarization sensor was designed to sensitive detection of trace ampicillin based on click chemistry, using graphene oxide (GO) as a fluorescence polarization (FP) signal enhancement element.
