NH-MIL-101(Fe) nanozyme-based dual-modality sensor for determination of alendronate sodium and study of two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy.

We developed a dual-modality sensing platform for ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric determination of alendronate sodium (ALDS). This platform was performed by using a NH- MIL-101(Fe) as a peroxidase mimic. Since preferential complexing between Fe (active site for peroxidase) and ALDS, the production of 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP, oxidized product of OPD) has been inhibited in the presence of HO. As a result, the ratiometric fluorescence value of F/F and absorbance at 450 nm exhibited significant changes, which could be used as the dual-modality sensing platform. In addition, Two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS) analysis on Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), ultraviolet visible and ratiometric fluorescence spectra were applied to investigate the binding features. Synchronous and asynchronous maps of these spectra confirmed our above hypothesis, in which Fe-ALDS complex was the critical factor that regulated dual-modality signals. To our knowledge, the 2D-COS method was applied to study the catalytic and sensing mechanism of nanozyme as NH- MIL-101(Fe) for the first time. This technique was helpful to understand interaction of substrates on nanozyme and develop more sensitive sensors for assaying.
