Although gold (Au) plays an important role in many fields, the residual Au3+ ion in our natural environment is one of the most noxious heavy metal ions for animals and plants. It is of great significance to develop an efficient and simple detection method for Au3+. Based on heterogeneous catalytic activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by Ag@Cu2O nanoparticles (Ag@Cu2O NPs), a novel, visible and convenient strategy for Au3+ detection was developed. The well-dispersive Ag@Cu2O NPs could catalyze PMS to produce sulfate radicals (SO4•−) and hydroxyl radicals (·OH) which could oxide 3, 3′, 5, 5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into oxidized TMB (oxTMB) in colorimetric detection. The introduced Au3+ could effectively enhance catalytic activation of PMS to produce more SO4•− and ·OH. This was because there was the synergistic effect of Au and CuO, which reduced the charge transfer resistance and promoted electron transfer. This method had good specificity against 22 types of cationic or anionic interfering ions and the detection limit of Au3+ was about 290 nmol·L−1. In this study, a new substrate of PMS was used for colorimetric detection of heavy metal ions, and the catalytic synergy of Au and CuO in PMS/Ag@Cu2O NPs/Au3+ colorimetric detection system was analyzed in detail.

In this study, a novel fluorescent probe, MAC-2, for the detection of Au 3+ was designed and synthesised using cellulose as a carrier combined with benzothiazole derivatives. The structure of the probe was confirmed by SEM, XRD, FTIR, and 1 H NMR, also the optical properties of the product were investigated. MAC-2 showed bright green fluorescence under a 365 nm UV lamp and exhibited significant quenching behaviour toward Au 3+ . MAC-2 utilises more sustainable biomass resources, featuring green and biodegradable characteristics that meet environmental requirements. Compared with most reported probes, it exhibits notable fluorescence properties. The limit of detection (LOD) is as low as 0.057 μM, and the response time is 1 min. It also demonstrates good specific recognition and anti-interference abilities. In addition, a smartphone was used as a portable signal processing device to achieve rapid detection of Au 3+ concentration. Meanwhile, MAC-2 was successfully prepared as a fluorescent test strip, providing a potential application for the convenient detection of Au 3+ . The high sensitivity and selectivity exhibited by cellulose-based fluorescent probes in detecting Au 3+ offer valuable insights and new ideas for the detection of other metal ions and biomolecules. These inspirations will help promote the continuous development of research and applications in related fields.

Bovine serum albumin-stabilized Au nanoclusters (BSA-Au NCs) have emerged as promising contenders for imaging agents and highly sensitive fluorescence sensors due to their biocompatibility and strong photoluminescence. Optimizing the synthesis conditions of BSA-Au NCs is crucial for enhancing fluorescence imaging and other nanocluster applications. In this study, for the first time, we systematically investigated the effects of BSA concentration and Au3+ on both particle size and optical characteristics of BSA-Au NCs. When the two components achieved a suitable concentration ratio, it was beneficial to form BSA-Au NCs with a high quantum yield (QY = 74.30%) and good fluorescence stability. In contrast, an inappropriate concentration ratio would lead to the formation of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs), and their internal filtration effect (IFE) would attenuate the fluorescence emission of BSA-Au NCs. The BSA-Au NCs were then employed as efficient fluorescence sensors for detecting Hg2+. Furthermore, the growth mechanism of BSA-Au NCs was elucidated by monitoring fluorescence changes during different incubation times. The BSA-Au NCs with a high quantum yield introduce a novel synthetic concept for sensitive fluorescent probes and expanding versatile applications of BSA-Au NCs in catalysis, chemical sensing and biomedicine.

To achieve real-time monitoring of Au 3+ , a corn bract cellulose-based fluorescent probe MAC-1 for was synthesized. MAC-1 showed good fluorescence properties in DMF-H 2 O (1:9, v /v, pH = 7.4) solution, showed a fluorescence emission peak at 520 nm with quenching fluorescence properties for Au 3+ . The structure of MAC-1 was analyzed by SEM (Sample microstructure images), XRD (X-ray diffraction), FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), 1 H NMR, Elemental analysis, EDS, Mapping and TG (Thermogravimetry) were analyzed. The fluorescence properties of the probe were also characterized by UV spectrophotometer and fluorescence spectrophotometer. The results showed that the recognition of Au 3+ by the probe MAC-1 exhibited high selectivity and high sensitivity. Moreover, it is highly resistant to interference and has a short response time, which can be rapidly responded within 1 min. In addition, to improve the practical application of the probe, the probe was prepared as a fluorescent composite film and the fluorescence effect shown by the fluorescent composite film is consistent with the fluorescence change of the probe MAC-1 itself. The fluorescent composite film also has excellent selectivity and good overall physical and mechanical properties. This study provides a meaningful reference for the detection of Au 3+ and further expands the application field of agroforestry waste.

A label-free, rapid, and highly sensitive colorimetric assay for the detection of glutathione (GSH) was developed. o-Phenylenediamine (OPD) can be selectively oxidized by Au3+ in phosphate buffer to produce light yellow 2,3-diaminophenazine. After the addition of GSH, the autocatalytic redox reaction between OPD and Au3+ can be effectively inhibited, resulting in a significant decrease in chroma and absorbance intensity. Reduced absorbance intensity can be used for the quantification of GSH. In addition, this method can achieve the discriminative detection of biothiols, such as cysteine and homocysteine. Based on these findings, a simple colorimetric assay was developed for the detection of GSH in the range of 1 nM to 1 mM with a low detection limit of 0.08 nM. More importantly, this procedure is simple, and the whole assay can be accomplished quickly within 15 min. Additionally, the proposed method was successfully used for the determination of GSH in biological fluids, such as serum samples.

Red emissive carbon dots (CDs) have drawn more and more attention due to their good organ penetration depth and slight biological tissue photodamage. Herein, the fluorescent CDs with red emission were synthesized by the facile one-pot hydrothermal treatment of citric acid and neutral red and they show red fluorescence both in aqueous solution and solid state. The solution of CDs exhibits the quantum yield of 12.1%, good stability against photobleaching, and low cytotoxicity. As-prepared CDs can be used as a fluorescent probe for peculiar detection of Pt2+, Au3+, and Pd2+. Furthermore, the CDs show excellent biocompatibility, which were successfully used as hopeful bioimaging and biosensing of noble metal ions in PC12 cells and zebrafish.

A novel fluorescent probe, amino-pillar[5]arene (APA), was prepared via a green, effective, and convenient synthetic method, which was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared (IR), and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The fluorescence sensing behavior of the APA probe toward 22 metal ions in aqueous solutions were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. The results showed that APA could be used as a selective fluorescent probe for the specificity detection of Au3+ ions. Moreover, the detection characteristics were investigated by fluorescence spectral titration, pH effect, fluorescence competitive experiments, Job’s plot analysis, 1H NMR, and IR. The results indicated that detection of Au3+ ions by the APA probe could be achieved in the range of pH 1–13.5 and that other coexisting metal ions did not cause any marked interference. The titration analysis results indicated that the fluorescence intensity decreased as the concentration of Au3+ ions increased, with an excellent correlation (R2 = 0.9942). The detection limit was as low as 7.59 × 10–8 mol·L–1, and the binding ratio of the APA probe with Au3+ ions was 2:1. Therefore, the APA probe has potential applications for detecting Au3+ ions in the environment and in living organisms.

In recent years, carbon dots (CDs) have shown potential applications in fluorescence tracing and imaging due to their excellent optical and chemical properties. In this work, a new type of carbon dots (Cy7-CDs) with near-infrared absorption and emission was synthesized from cyanine dyes and polyethylene glycol by hydrothermal reaction. The prepared Cy7-CDs exhibited low toxicity and excellent biocompatibility, which were applied to detect the noble metal ions Au 3+ /Hg 2+ and glutathione via the ‘on–off-on’ mode. In addition, in vivo fluorescence images demonstrated that Cy7-CDs could efficiently accumulate in the tumor. Therefore, Cy7-CDs could act as a multi-functional probe for biological sensing and tumor diagnosis.

Herein, hydrothermal method was used to prepare a series of multi-color polythiophene modified carbon quantum dots. Under UV excitation, fluorescence their maximum emission wavelengths appear at 612 nm, 570 nm, and 540 nm respectively. The prepared CD-BTH and CD-BN can have specific detection of Au 3+ and Hg 2+ through fluorescence quenching effect. The detection limits for Au 3+ are 3 nM and 5.4 nM respectively, and for Hg 2+ are 23 nM and 90 nM respectively. CD-KN detects Au 3+ specifically through fluorescence resonance, with a detection limit of 33 nM. Under the interference of other metal ions, three types of polythiophene modified quantum carbon dots exhibit excellent selectivity for the responsive ions. Meanwhile, this article also elucidates the law that as the electron withdrawing ability of the side chains of polythiophene derivatives increasing, the fluorescence emission peaks of the prepared polythiophene modified carbon dots shifts red and the fluorescence quantum yield is higher.

The synthesis and characterization of Au 3+ -modified UiO-67 metal-organic framework nanoparticles, Au 3+ -NMOFs, are described. The Au 3+ -NMOFs reveal dual oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activities and act as an active catalyst for the catalyzed generation of O 2 •− under aerobic conditions or •OH in the presence of H 2 O 2 . The two reactive oxygen species (ROS) agents O 2 •− and •OH are cooperatively formed by Au 3+ -NMOFs under aerobic conditions, and in the presence of H 2 O 2. The Au 3+ -NMOFs are applied as an effective catalyst for the generation ROS agents for antibacterial and wound healing applications. Effective antibacterial cell death and inhibition of cell proliferation of Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) and Escherichia coli ( E . coli ) bacterial colonies are demonstrated in the presence of the Au 3+ -NMOFs. In addition, in vivo experiments demonstrate effective wound healing of mice wounds infected by S. aureus , treated by the Au 3+ -NMOFs.

Carbon dots (CDs) as fluorescent probes have been widely exploited to detect biomarkers, however, tedious surface modification of CDs is generally required to achieve a relatively good detection ability. Here, we synthesized N-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) from triethylenetetramine (TETA) and m-phenylenediamine (m-PD) using a one-step hydrothermal method. When the pH increases from 3 to 11, the fluorescence intensity of the N-CDs gradually decreases. Furthermore, it displays a linear response to the physiological pH range of 5–8. Au3+ is reduced by amino groups on the surface of N-CDs to generate gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), causing fluorescence quenching of the N-CDs. If glutathione (GSH) is then added, the fluorescence of the N-CDs is recovered. The fluorescence intensity of the N-CDs is linearly correlated with the GSH concentration in the range of 50–400 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 7.83 μM. The fluorescence probe was used to distinguish cancer cells from normal cells using pH and to evaluate intracellular GSH. This work expands the application of CDs in multicomponent detection and provides a facile fluorescent probe for the detection of intracellular pH and GSH.

In this paper, we designed and synthesized a novel TBET-based ratiometric fluorescent chemodosimeter, RH-Au, for Au3+. It was found that the probe RH-Au displayed highly selective, sensitive and naked-eye detection upon the addition of Au3+. The probe RH-Au can be used in the pH range 6.0–7.5 and the detection limit was determined to be as low as 2.91 nM (0.57 ppb). We also demonstrated a successful application of imaging Au3+ in living cells using RH-Au.
