On April 14, 2023, Dr. Mao Yaning from the School of Chemistry at Qingdao University of Science and Technology, the sixth postdoctoral fellow introduced by Xingrui Company's provincial-level postdoctoral practice base, held a kick-off presentation in the company's first floor auditorium. The expert review panel raised questions and provided guidance on Dr. Mao Yaning's research topic, and the final review panel unanimously agreed to start the project.
The expert panel for this review is composed of Professor Kuang Shaoping, Director of the Graduate Workstation and Dean of the Graduate School, and Doctoral Supervisor at Qingdao University of Science and Technology, Tian Mingge, Chairman of Xingrui (Shandong) Environmental Technology Co., Ltd., and Yin Shumei, Senior Advisor of Xingrui (Shandong) Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. and Professor at Qingdao University of Science and Technology. Zeng Jun, R&D Manager of Xingrui, Zeng Zhinong, R&D Engineer, Zhou Liping, Director of Operations Service Center, and others attended the meeting, which was chaired by Zhou Liping.
At the meeting, Dr. Mao Yaning gave an opening report on the research topic of "Analysis and Application of Functional Nanomaterial Based Biosensing Arrays for Antibiotics in the Environment". He provided a detailed report on the research background, research objectives, research content, feasibility analysis, research innovations, research progress, and other aspects. Based on a new type of fluorescent nanomaterial, this study uses the fluorescence changes generated by the reaction between fluorescent carbon quantum dots and antibiotics to prepare fluorescent gold nanoclusters and fluorescent carbon quantum dots and other nanomaterials, in order to construct a sensor that can quickly detect one or two antibiotics in the environment. Finally, a fluorescent array sensor is established to achieve the goal of detecting multiple antibiotics. Realize rapid, accurate, and highly sensitive simultaneous detection of one or more antibiotics in the environment.
The expert group listened to Dr. Mao Yaning's opening report and, after questioning and discussion, believed that the topic belongs to the forefront research field, with strong innovation and challenges. The implementation of the project has important theoretical significance and application potential for the detection of antibiotics in the environment. Finally, the expert group unanimously agreed to approve Mao Yaning's proposal.
