Experiments indicated that nucleic acids can quench the fluorescence of the Eu3+ -2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA)-1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) system. Based on this, a sensitive method for the determination of nucleic acids was proposed. The experiments indicated that under the optimum conditions, the quenched fluorescence intensity was in proportion to the concentration of nucleic acids in the range 1.0 x 10(-11)-1.0 x 10(-6) g/mL for yeast RNA (yRNA), 5.0 x 10(-11)-5.0 x 10(-7) g/mL for fish sperm (fsDNA) and 1.0 x 10(-10)-1.5 x 10(-6) g/mL for calf thymus DNA (ctDNA). Their detection limits were 3.0 x 10(-12), 4.0 x 10(-12) and 5.0 x 10(-11) g/mL, respectively. Therefore, the proposed method is one of the most sensitive methods available. The interaction between nucleic acids and Eu3+ -TTA-Phen is also discussed.
