In the present study, a new strategy based on Cu2+mediated DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (DNA-Ag NCs) was developed, as a label-free, on–off–on fluorescent probe for the detection ofl-histidine. Eight synthesized DNA oligonucleotides (D1–D8) were experimentally tested, and D5-Ag NCs was finally selected forl-histidine detection due to its best fluorescent properties. The fluorescence emission of D5-Ag NCs could be quenched by Cu2+via electron or energy transfer. Upon addition ofl-histidine, the chelation between Cu2+and the imidazole group ofl-histidine leads to Cu2+liberation from D5-Ag NCs, and subsequently results in a dramatic fluorescence enhancement of the probe. The method displayed a good selectivity towardl-histidine over all the other amino acids, with a linear relationship in the range of 0.20–80 μM, and a limit of detection (LOD) of 4.3 nM. The strategy was also successfully applied to detectl-histidine in diluted human urine, exhibiting great opportunities for practical application in biological system.
