AuPd nanoalloy and nanopalladium with a diameter of 5 nm were prepared, using sodium citrate as the stabilizing agent and NaBH(4) as the reductant. The nanocatalyst containing palladium on the surface exhibited a strong catalytic effect on the slow NiP particle reaction between NiCl(2) and NaH(2)PO(2), and the NiP particle system showed a resonance scattering (RS) peak at 508 nm. The RS results showed that the Pd atom on AuPd nanoalloy surface is the catalytic center. Combining the aptamer cracking reaction of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA)-UO(2)(2+), AuPd nanoalloy aggregation, and AuPd nanoalloy catalysis, both AuPd nanoalloy RS probe and AuPd nanoalloy catalytic RS assays were developed for the determination of 40-250 pmol L(-1) UO(2)(2+) and 5.0-50 pmol L(-1) UO(2)(2+), respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
