Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:Provided is a temperature-responsive fluorescent particle comprising at least one type of fluorescent molecule in a molecular assembly comprising and constituted by at least one type of amphiphilic molecule, wherein the fluorescent molecule emits fluorescence when the molecular assembly is in the liquid phase and it is quenched when the molecular assembly is in the solid phase, due to a temperature-responsive solid-liquid phase transition, so that fluorescence emission and quenching of the fluorescent molecule are reversibly switched in a temperature responsive manner. Also provided is a temperature-responsive fluorescent probe comprising the temperature-responsive fluorescent particle the surface of which is modified with a biomolecule recognition element, and methods for detecting and quantitatively determining a biomolecule with the temperature-responsive fluorescent probe.
