Abstract:A new colorimetric analysis approach for chiral recognition of D- and L-forms of phenylalanine (phe) was developed based on triangular silver nanoplates (TAg-NPs). The TAg-NPs could be used as chiral colorimetric probes for D- and L-forms of phe. Upon addition of D-phe to TAg-NPs solution, a color change from blue to purple to pink could be observed, while no obvious color change was found on addition of L-phe. L-phe could prevent the TAg-NPs from being etched to small size particles while the protective effec… Show more
“…Therefore, based on the SEM results, when 0.5 mg l −1 of Hg 2+ is added, additional etching of the triangular nanoplates is obtained along with the formation of hexagonal and pentagonal nanoplates due to the erosion effect [33,54,55].…”
