Abstract

A new, sensitive, simple, and rapid fluorometric method was developed for the direct determination of carvedilol in real samples. The method was based on the inhibition of the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process between terbium (III)-1, 10-phenanthroline (Tb-phen) complex, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). For this purpose, the quenching effect of AgNPs in the concentration range of 0.9×10-12 – 5.4 ×10-11 M was investigated on the Tb-phen complex fluorescence intensity in the excitation and emission wavelengths of 300 and 500 nm, respectively. The results showed that the amount of AgNPs quenching, as a result of FRET process, is very high and there is a good linear relationship between the quenched fluorescence intensity and AgNPs concentration. The quenching probably occurs when the Tb-phen complex is attached to the AgNPs by electrostatic force and long-range dipole-dipole interaction between the excited donor (Tb-phen complex) and ground-state acceptor molecules (AgNPs). Upon the addition of carvedilol, the quenched fluorescence of Tb-phen complex was gradually recovered by carvedilol via its strong adsorption on the surface of AgNPs and removal of Tb-phen complex from the AgNPs surface (turn off/on process). Under the optimum conditions, a linear relationship was obtained between the enhanced fluorescence intensity and the carvedilol concentration in the range of (5-1000)×10-8 M with the detection limit of 2.0×10-8 M. The proposed method was successfully applied to determine carvedilol in the spiked normal serum samples and analytical recoveries from treated serum samples were in the range of 92.5–103% and relative standard deviation (RSD%) were 0.14-1.15.
