A dual-model fluorescent probe for formaldehyde has been developed. With excitation at 365 and 400 nm respectively and upon addition of formaldehyde, the fluorescent probe displays off-on fluorescence responses at 415 and 505 nm. Formaldehyde can be detected quantitatively in the concentration range from 0 to 2.7 x 10(-2) M and the detection limit on fluorescence response of the probe can be as low as 6 mu M. The proposed method was successfully employed for preliminary application in several commercially available foods.
