Fluorescent chemical sensors to detect materials, by increasing fluorescence emission and absorption or by shutting down, because they are nondestructive, the ability to show decomposed concentrations, fast response, high accuracy have been considered and used. In this research, a chemical sensor was synthesized PbS functionalized with gelatin quantum dots for the determination of toxic bentazon (BTZN) one of the most problematic pesticides polluting in water samples, and extremely harmful to humans and animals even at low concentrations. The calibration curve was linear in the range of (0.05 to 200.0 ng mL−1). The current response was linearly proportional to the BTZN concentration with a R2∼ 0.999. The standard deviation of less than (3%), and detection limits (3S/m) of the method (0.5 ng mL−1, in time 50 s, 325 nm) were obtained for sensor level response PbS Quantum Dot–Gelatin nanocomposites sensor with (99%) which is below the U.S. Health Advisory level. The observed outcomes confirmed the suitability recovery and a very low detection limit for measuring the BTZN. The method fluorometric introduced to measure BTZN in water samples was used and can be used for in different intricate matrices, the chemical PbS Quantum Dot–Gelatin nanocomposites sensor made it possible as an excellent sensor with good reproducibility.
