10 Conclusion Quantum dots were successfully immobilized into composite films through utilization of the Layer-by by- Layer technique and electrostatic interactions The convenient quantum dot-h composite film fabricated was highly selective and sensitive towards organophosphorus compounds (e.g. paraoxon)

18 Conclusion The H and Cde(Zn) ) QDs can form stable bioconjugate through electrostatic interaction CD spectra indicate a secondary structure change of H in the presence of paraoxon The intensity of photoluminescence of H/QDs bioconjugate was quenched in the presence of paraoxon The secondary structure change of H was responsible for the observed L quenching Increasing the molar ratio of H over QDs will not substantially increase the sensitivity of H/QDs biosensor
