In this study, phosphorus, nitride-doped carbon nanosheets (PN/CNs) were synthesized using a simple hydrothermal method based on graphitic carbon nitride. This prepared material showed excellent water solubility and stable optical properties. A new fluorescence sensing platform based on PN/CNs was constructed for the highly sensitive detection of four NFs. This sensitivity was mainly attributed to the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism. The limits of detection for nitrofurazone, nitrofurantoin, furazolidone and furaltadone were determined to be 13.41, 15.24, 16.37 and 19.94 nM, respectively. The high sensitivity and selectivity of PN/CNs for these four NFs were thoroughly evaluated by the Stern-Volmer equation and FRET quenching efficiency. This proposed method exhibited high sensitivity and can be successfully applied to detect NFs in fish.
