Abstract
Abstract
The fluorophore, Pyrene aldehyde, PA, with micelles of different surfactants is used to detect the amino acids using fluorescence. The fluorescence of the ensemble is utilized for obtaining the different spectra’s and the data obtained is analyzed for various types of interactions and detection of some amino acids in aqueous medium. The fluorophore (PA) when dissolved in PF-127 and Tween-80 micelle solutions, the fluorescence emission becomes more stable. The quenching efficiency determined in case of, Cetrimide (CET), CET + PA and Tx-100 + PA is much smaller than that of PF-127 and Tween-80. It was observed that Tween-80 sensor system has a good selectivity towards valine and PF-127 shows an increasing trend as Aspartic acid < Histadine < Valine.
