Mercury (Hg) is an important environmental pollutant because of its high toxicity. With the rapid industrialization, on-site monitoring Hg 2+ contamination becomes increasingly important. In this work, a facile colorimetric sensing system based on DNA-mediated charge neutralization of AuNPs as well as smartphone data acquisition was developed for on-site monitoring of Hg 2+ . The designed both-end block dsDNA system (probe DNA and block DNA) can interact with the replacement DNA and formed T-Hg 2+ -T mismatched dsDNA in the presence of Hg 2+ , thus releasing the long block DNA as well as preventing the ThT-induced neutralization of AuNPs. The color change for the AuNPs neutralization can be pictured and analyzed by a portable smartphone. This on-site Hg 2+ monitoring system was quite simple and sensitive with a low limit of detection (2.8 nM), lower than the maximum permitted amount of Hg 2+ in drinking water regulated by EPA. The accuracy of the proposed method was verified through analysis of two certified water samples, four real water samples and seven cosmetic samples, and the results agreed well with the certified values or those by atomic fluorescence spectrometry . Overall, this facile and simple sensing system is an appealing tool for on-site monitoring of Hg 2+ in water and cosmetic samples.

In this study, infrequent orange carbon nanodots (CNDs) were applied as a dual-readout probe for the effective colorimetric and fluorescent detection of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP). The orange fluorescence could be rapidly and selectively quenched by TNP, and the colorimetric response from the original pink color to blue could also be captured immediately by the naked eye. A limit of detection of 0.127 μM for TNP was estimated by the fluorescent method and 5 × 10−5 M by visualized detection. Interestingly, the fluorescence of the CNDs with TNP gradually transitioned from orange to green upon irradiation by a UV lamp, and the colorimetric response transitioned from pink to blue to colorless, which ensured effective multi-response detection of TNP. In addition, the CNDs exhibited bright fluorescence, excellent biocompatibility and low toxicity, making them high-quality fluorescent probes for cellular imaging.

Lipid oxidation is a major food safety issue for edible oils . The objective of this study was to develop a simple method for detecting lipid oxidation through the color change of a composite film. Schiff's reagent which can form color compound with lipid oxidation products—aldehydes was incorporated into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to form the composite film. The effects of PVA molecular weight (Mw), Schiff's reagent/PVA ratio and glycerol content on the response of the composite film to aldehyde were investigated. Sunflower seed oil with various extent of oxidation was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the composite film for lipid oxidation detection. The results showed that the composite film formed with lower PVA Mw turned from colorless to purple upon aldehyde exposure. Higher Schiff's reagent/PVA ratio and glycerol content led to shorter response time and larger color change after aldehyde exposure. The color change of the composite film was linearly (R 2 = 0.96) related to aldehyde concentration. The oxidation status of four sunflower seed oil samples out of five were correctly identified by the composite film. Although the accuracy of this method was 80% in this study, it still shows great potential for lipid oxidation detection application.

Two water-soluble colorimetric and turn-on fluorescent probes STP1–2 were rationally designed and synthesized for selective recognition of GSH. Both probes are colorless 4-thioether-1,8-naphthalimide derivatives, which are almost non-fluorescent due to the photoinduced electron transfer from the fluorophore to the 4-nitrobenzene. Upon addition of GSH to STP1/STP2–CTAB solution, obvious spectral responses were observed: the absorption peak shifted from 345 nm to 390 nm companied with ∼90-fold fluorescence enhancement at 487 nm. A good linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity and GSH concentration was obtained, and the detection limit of GSH was estimated to be 8.40 × 10−8 mol L−1. The experimental results imply that both probes could be applied in fluorescent imaging of GSH within living cells and in the detection of mercapto-containing proteins as well.

Quantitative fluorescence turn-on and colorimetric detection of glutathione (GSH) with rapid speed, low cost have attained much attention. Herein, we developed a sensitive fluorescence turn-on and colorimetric sensor for GSH based on the inner-filter effect (IFE), which is the first time to select oxTMB and TMPyP as the IFE absorber and fluorophore pair, respectively. The absorption band of oxTMB matches well with the emission band of TMPyP in the IFE-based fluorescent assay. In the absence of GSH, the absorption peak of oxTMB at 652 nm significantly overlaps with the emission of TMPyP, resulting in the efficient IFE and inhibition of the fluorescence of TMPyP. In the presence of GSH, the absorption intensity at 652 nm decreases, generating the recovery of the fluorescence of TMPyP. Therefore, this approach is demonstrated to be a novel candidate for detection of GSH, with high sensitivity and selectivity. The linear dynamic range for the concentrations of GSH is between 0.1 μM to 20 μM along with a limit of detection (LOD) of about 30 nM (calculated LOD as 3 σ /slope). Finally, this novel sensor was successfully applied for GSH detection in fetal calf serum , and satisfactory recovery was achieved.

A simple and selective colorimetric sensor based on o-phosphorylethanolamine-functionalized gold nanoparticles (OPA–Au NPs) as an optical probe has been developed for the detection of UO 2 2+ . OPA–Au NPs rapidly aggregate in the presence of UO 2 2+ , thereby causing a visual color change from red to blue, which is easily detectable by eye. The proposed sensing system possesses a selective response for UO 2 2+ over other heavy metal ions. The current method shows application potential for UO 2 2+ detection in real water samples.

A new highly selective and visible colorimetric fluorescent probe (probe 1) was developed to detect hydrazine (N2H4) concentration in real water samples. As different concentrations of N 2 H 4 were added, the color of the probe solution was graded gradually from colorless to pink, which could be observed by the naked eye under UV light at 365 nm. Our research indicates that probe 1 offers a certain practical significance for use as a visible detection agent to detect N2H4 efficiently by distinct color response. Furthermore, our work showed that probe 1 can be successfully applied to detect N2H4 concentrations in real water samples.

An organic–inorganic hybrid fluorescent perovskite, CH3NH3PbBr3, was synthesized by a grinding method, and applied for humidity sensing. Its strong fluorescence at 530 nm could be linearly quenched by a humidity increase from 7 to 98%. Coupled with a red-emitting reference dye, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin, a colorimetric humidity sensor was produced using the perovskite. The sensor appeared to be sensitive to increased humidity by displaying a color change from green to red, or vice versa, with good reversibility. The proposed approach should provide a new strategy in the design of sensitive and applicable humidity sensors.

Clusterin has the potential to become the biomarker of multiple diseases, but its clinical quantitative detection methods are limited, which restricts its research progress as a biomarker. A rapid and visible colorimetric sensor for clusterin detection based on sodium chloride-induced aggregation characteristic of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was successfully constructed. Unlike the existing methods based on antigen–antibody recognition reactions, the aptamer of clusterin was used as the sensing recognition element. The aptamer could protect AuNPs from aggregation caused by sodium chloride, but clusterin bound with aptamer detached it from AuNPs, thereby inducing aggregation again. Simultaneously, the color change from red in the dispersed state to purple gray in the aggregated state made it possible to preliminarily judge the concentration of clusterin by observation. This biosensor showed a linear range of 0.02–2 ng/mL and good sensitivity with a detection limit of 5.37 pg/mL. The test results of clusterin in spiked human urine confirmed that the recovery rate was satisfactory. The proposed strategy is helpful for the development of label-free point-of-care testing equipment for clinical testing of clusterin, which is cost-effective and feasible.

Ion doping is one of the most effective strategies to induce interesting luminescence properties of materials. In this work, the Bi 3+ and Eu 3+ are introduced into a ‘114’ host material YBaZn 3 GaO 7 (YBZG) to generate photoluminescence (PL), long-persistent luminescence (LPL) and colour change properties. The co-doped YBZG:0.003Bi 3+ / y Eu 3+ can generate multi-color emissions from green, through yellow to orange with the increasing of Eu 3+ concentration. There are F-like color centers around conduction band (CB) of YBZG host with shallow or deep energy levels. The electrons trapped by deep levels response to the PC properties, whereas these for shallow levels response to the LPL properties. The PC process from white to apricot is reversible. By alternating thermal treatment and irradiation, YBZG:0.003Bi 3+ was proved to have a good fatigue resistance of 3.1 %. For YBZG:0.003Bi 3+ /0.05Eu 3+ , it shows bright orange LPL emission when the irradiation is removed after 24 min. The achievement of this paper provides a design idea that if the host structure of a phosphor is of flexible and easy to occur defect, not only PL property, but also PC and LPL properties are probably able to realize.

Brightly saturated oxide films are successfully prepared on Ti sheets surface by anodic oxidation in ethaline deep eutectic solvent (DES) with the regulation of H 2 O content, to enhance the decorative and corrosion resistance. As H 2 O content increases from 0 wt .% to 100 wt .% in the DES, the colored surface of Ti sheets exhibits a highly reproducible and a variety of colors including yellow, brown, red, purple, and blue. The role of H 2 O during the coloring process is discussed to shed light on the deeper causes of the color changes of Ti sheets. There exists a critical H 2 O content, i.e. 20 wt. %, and below this value, it benefits to the increase of bath voltage and the formation of oxide films, reflecting in a regular change in the color of Ti sheets. Above 20 wt. %, some characteristics conferred by ethaline DES may be weakened, so that the color of Ti sheets basically remains unchanged in blue tone. Besides, systematically characterizations of colored Ti sheets demonstrate that non-stoichiometric titanium oxides are formed as a mixture of TiO 2 , Ti 2 O 3 and TiO. The variations in H 2 O content have significant impacts on the surface composition of colored Ti sheets, resulting in an increased O/Ti ratio of the surface oxides and altering the optical properties of the colored films. Furthermore, the EIS and dynamic potential polarization tests show a significant increase in impedance and a decrease in corrosion current density for the colored Ti sheets compared to the untreated, implying an enhancement in corrosion resistance.

The concentrations of (E) -2-hexenal (E2H) have obvious correlation with the color change process in tomatoes during ripening. It is proposed that E2H may play a role in regulating the chloroplast degradation. In this study, the exogenous E2H was applied to tomato fruits and plants to create a higher concentration of E2H atmosphere than naturel released. A set of indices in response to E2H were detected. The color change was inhibited. The ethylene pathway and the involved genes were limited. The results of subcellular structure changes, the fatty acid profiles and the malondialdehyde (MDA) content supported that the chloroplast membranes were specifically degraded. The hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) and the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway was activated to decompose the free fatty acids. In tomato plants at the harvest stage, E2H did not affect the ripe tomatoes, but inhibited the color changes of green tomatoes, accelerated the withering of the leaves and the branches, and made the fruits fall off easier. The chlorophagy was activated and the autophagosomes were observed to decompose the chloroplasts in leaves. In conclusion, E2H accelerated the chloroplast degradation, by which the color changes were regulated.
