Abstract: A novel ternary-emission fluorescence sensor was proposed by post-imprinting mixing blue-/green-/red-emission bovine hemoglobin (BHb) imprinted polymers (b-MIPs, g-MIPs, and r-MIPs) at a proper ratio and realized the multiplexed and visual detection of BHb. The three MIPs were individually embedded with blue-emission 7-hydroxycoumarin, green-emission CdTe quantum dots (QDs), and red-emission CdTe/ZnS QDs. Upon interaction with BHb within 8 min, the fluorescence of CdTe and CdTe/ZnS QDs were simultaneously turned off, whereas the 7-hydroxycoumarin turned on the fluorescence intensity. Thereupon, the ratiometric fluorescence intensity of the ternary emission linearly varied within 0.025-3 μM BHb, accompanying the profuse fluorescence color evolution from yellowish green to yellow to salmon to plum to purple to finally blue. In comparison with the dual- or single-emission sensor, the ternary-emission fluorescence MIPs sensor provided a wider color variation covering the green-red-blue window for accurate naked-eye determination of BHb, as well as a lower detection limit down to 7.8 nM and a higher imprinting factor of 15.2. Moreover, the satisfactory recoveries of 99.25-111.7% in determining the spiked BHb in bovine urine samples, as well as the optical stability and post-imprinting construction convenience, indicated that the developed tricolor-emission fluorescence MIPs sensor provided an ideal alternative for rapid, sensitive, and visual determination of proteins in complicated samples
