A novel fluorometric method for the determination of L-asparaginase, an enzyme crucial in cancer therapy and food industry applications, is presented. This sensitive and selective approach utilizes L-asparagine and two pH-sensitive carbon dots (blue-N-CDs and red-N-CDs) as probes. The interaction between L-asparagine and L-asparaginase liberates ammonia, causing an increase in pH. This pH change simultaneously decreases the fluorescence of blue-N-CDs while enhancing the emission of red-N-CDs, enabling ratiometric detection of L-asparaginase. Comprehensive characterization of both carbon dots and investigation of their response mechanism towards L-asparaginase were conducted using ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging techniques. The designed approach demonstrates outstanding linearity (20 to 2000 U L^-1 …
