%X The determination of vitamin B6 (VB6) in food is of great significance due to its vital role in maintaining health and its necessity for ingestion through dietary sources. Therefore, based on ionic liquid-based yellow-emitting carbon dots (Y-CDs), a novel fluorescence-smartphone dual-mode method was first developed. The present method was applied to the detection of VB6 in milk. In the fluorescence method, the formation of complexes between VB6 and Y-CDs results in a significant decrease of the fluorescence intensity of Y-CDs. VB6 in milk samples was successfully determined according to this method, which exhibited a low detection limit (5 × 10-5 mg/mL) and excellent recoveries (98.80%-103.80%), demonstrating its feasibility in real sample analysis. In addition, the smartphone-based analysis method was established by researching the correlation between different VB6 concentrations and the (R + B) values of Y-CDs. When this method was applied, the detection process of VB6 was simplified. By combining the two methods, the possibility of incorrect analysis results can be effectively reduced, and the reliability of detection results can be improved through cross-validation of the two methods. Compared with traditional chromatography and electrochemical methods, the dual-mode method was more rapid, convenient, accurate, and suitable for the detection of VB6.
