Lateral flow chromatography strip system for rapid fluorescence determination of phycocyanin in water samples

Phycocyanin (PC) is of great significance to biomedicine and water environmental safety. Hence, it is indispensable to develop facile and rapid method for PC determination. In this investigation, a system containing lateral flow chromatography (LFC) strip (which was deposited with molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) based mesoporous structured coated silica nanoparticles, SiO
