"Fluorescence quenching based immunoassay format for the detection of a trace amount of some nitro-explosives with a high degree of selectivity is reported in this study. The immunoassay comprises anti-explosive antibodies functionalized microtitre strips specific to the targeted explosives, pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), 1,3,5-trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT). UV induced photolysis of nitro-explosive bound to targeted antibodies generates primarily nitrite ions which after the quick reaction with the detector molecule, 2,3-diaminonaphthalene (DAN), a fluorophore, quenches its fluorescence intensity, however, proportionately undergo cyclization to produce a highly fluorescent product, 2,3-naphthotriazole (NAT). The synthesized product, NAT, was verified using various chromatographic and spectrophotometric techniques. This newly developed antibody-based detection method, utilizing DAN dye, demonstrated a high selectivity towards PETN, RDX, and TNT. This method can be used as an economical testing kit for direct quantification of explosives, implying the great potential for quick, low-cost trace detection of explosives."^^ . "2019-10-24" .
