A novel triphenylamine-based fluorescent sensor tris((4-amino)phenylduryl)amine (m-TAPA) for Fe3+/Cu2+ ion has been developed. m-TAPA shows high selectivity and sensitivity toward Fe3+/Cu2+ over alkali and transition metal ions in aqueous solution. The possible mechanism of fluorescence quenching was that Fe3+/Cu2+ can be captured by the NH2 groups of m-TAPA to form non-fluorescent complexes, resulting in strong quenching. The detection limits of Fe3+ and Cu2+ were calculated to be 230 nM and 620 nM, respectively. Furthermore, fluorescent test strips have been prepared for convenient detection of Fe3+ and Cu2+ ions in environmental water samples, even in drinking water.

CdSe/CdS quantum dots (QDs) functionalized by thiourea (TU) were synthesized and used as a fluorescent sensor for mercury ion detection. The TU-functionalized QDs were prepared by bonding TU via electrostatic interaction to the core/shell CdSe/CdS QDs after capping with thioglycolic acid (TGA). It was observed that the fluorescence of the functionalized QDs was quenched upon the addition of Hg 2+ . The quantitative detection of Hg 2+ with this fluorescent sensor could be conducted based on the linear relationship between the extent of quenching and the concentration of Hg 2+ added in the range of 1–300 μg L −1 . A detection limit of 0.56 μg L −1 was achieved. The sensor showed superior selectivity for Hg 2+ and was successfully applied to the determination of mercury in environmental samples with satisfactory results.

Bacillus anthracis, an extremely dangerous bacterium which can cause pulmonary anthrax and be used as biochemical weapon agent, can be detected by the detection of its major biomarker 2, 6-pyridine dicarboxylic acid (DPA). Herein, we reported the solvothermal synthesis of a non-luminescent NH 2 -BDC-Eu-MOF using Eu 3+ and 2-aminoterephthalic acid (NH 2 -BDC). The emission of amino ligand and Eu 3+ ions are absent in ethanol while the addition of DPA could recover both emission at 460 and 624 nm respectively. Thus this MOF can act as a dual emission ‘‘turn-on’’ probe for DPA detection. The detection limits (LOD) of this DPA probe are about 0.8 μM in ethanol and 0.36 μM in water, which are much lower than an infectious dosage of bacillus anthracis spores (60 μM) for human being. In order to monitor DPA levels more conveniently, we developed a one-to-two decoder logic gate operation, which can determinate DPA via color discrimination.

A luminescent hydroxyl-functionalized MIL-53(Al) (OH-MIL-53(Al)) was prepared by one-step solvent thermal method for multiresponsive fluorescence sensor. The OH-MIL-53(Al) exhibited uniform nanospheres with average diameter of 150±20 nm, flexible three-dimensional frameworks, and good dispersion in water. The OH-MIL-53(Al) emitted green fluorescence with a maximum wavelength of 515 nm which showed good fluorescence quenching response for sensing F − and fluorescence enhancement response for water, with good day-to-day stability. The mechanism was based on protonation/deprotonation of hydroxyl group located on OH-MIL-53(Al). Good linear relationship could be found between the luminescence intensity of 515 nm and F − concentrations in the range of 0–60 µM with a determination limit of 70 nM. At the concentrations from 0% to 100%, the fitting curve for water content was in good agreement with the linear equation, and the detection limit was 0.10%. OH-MIL-53(Al) demonstrated excellent fluorescence sensing performance, indicating that it could be used as a multiresponsive sensor to practical application.

In this work, the fluorescent sensor based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and electrostatic interaction (EI) was prepared for the ratiometric and visual detecting S 2– . The FRET fluorescent sensor consists of two fluorophores, with carbon dots (CDs) as energy donors and silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) as acceptors. At 390 nm excitation, CDs and Ag NCs showed two well-separated peaks at 445 nm and 660 nm, separately. The existence of S 2– caused the red fluorescence at 660 nm to be quenched, whereas the blue fluorescence at 445 nm was restored, and the fluorescence color of the ratiometric sensor changed from pink to blue. It could be employed in ratiometric and visual detecting S 2– . The linear range of quantitative detection S 2– was 0.5–100 μM, and its detection limit was 0.35 μM. CDs-Ag NCs could be used for detecting S 2– in mineral water and tap water. The results showed that the FRET ratiometric fluorescent sensor exhibits good anti-interference and high selectivity for detecting S 2– in environmental water samples.

Oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTC) is a commonly used over-the-counter antibiotic, valued for its potent antibacterial properties. However, the inappropriate and excessive use of OTC can result in the accumulation of the drug in both the environment and human body, causing significant harm to ecosystems and human health. Therefore, the development of a fast and sensitive method for detecting OTC is of great significance. Lanthanide metal–organic frameworks (LnMOFs) can effectively excite lanthanide metals to emit long-lifetime, narrow and stable fluorescence based on the antenna effect, but their application in fluorescence sensing is rarely reported. In this work, a strongly fluorescent material Tb-MOF was synthesized by a facile solvothermal method using 1,2,4,5-phenylenetetracarboxylic acid (H 4 btec) and 1,10-phenanthroline (1,10-phen) as organic ligands and lanthanide metal Tb as the luminescent center. Tb-MOF is a stable material in water and shows excellent linearity with OTC in the concentration range of 0 ∼ 70 μM, with low detection limit (0.12 μM) and luminescence color transition from bright green to dark green during the detection process. X-ray diffraction, UV–vis absorption and fluorescence lifetime analyses revealed that the fluorescence quenching of Tb-MOF by OTC is caused by the inner filter effect in static quenching. Test strips for OTC detection were successfully prepared using Tb-MOF. These strips are not only low cost and easy to prepare but can also be used as portable sensing devices that can be easily distinguished by the naked eye during OTC testing. This study not only presents a fluorescent probe for the detection of OTC in water but also offers a practical method for converting fluorescent luminescent materials into functional devices for OTC detection.

Ammonia (NH 3 ) is a common pollutant in water and an important indicator of environmental pollution. Its determination is of great significance to environmental protection. We synthesized ligand-free Cs 2 AgInCl 6 :Bi at room temperature to establish a low toxicity, rapid, and simple fluorescence assay for the selective determination of NH 3 in water. Studies have shown that there is a good linear relationship with the concentration of NH 3 in the range of 1.00 ∼ 20.00 mg L -1 and the determination limit is 0.40 mg L -1 . The selectivity for NH 3 is higher than other substances may exist in the water (eg. Na + , SO 4 2- ). Subsequently, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and ultraviolet absorption spectra were used to investigate the possible mechanism of NH 3 reaction with Cs 2 AgInCl 6 :Bi. The water samples of lakes and rivers were analyzed by the proposed method and indophenolblue method, the results shown that there is no significant difference between the two methods. The reliable results (0.1%< RSD < 4.1%) and the satisfactory recovery (99.0%∼102.5%) were obtained by direct determination method and mark recovery method. Therefore, the simple, rapid and low-toxicity fluorescence method established in this work provides a promising approach for NH 3 analysis in environmental water.

Patulin (PAT) and ochratoxin A (OTA) are the two main mycotoxins present in apples. Herein, a sensitive aptasensor for simultaneous detection of PAT and ochratoxin OTA was developed. Dual-color gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) with enhanced fluorescence properties were synthesized and employed as fluorescence amplifiers. Two separated fluorescence peaks at 650 nm and 530 nm were monitored simultaneously by employing single excitation (405 nm), corresponding to the aptamer probes of Cys@BSA-AuNCs-Apt PAT and Arg@ATT-AuNCs-Apt OTA , respectively. The fluorescent aptasensor demonstrated satisfying specificity, storage ability and accuracy. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the linear detection range for PAT and OTA was 0.10–50 ng/mL, with the limit of detection of 0.09 ng/mL and 0.06 ng/mL, respectively. Most importantly, practicability of the constructed aptasensor were confirmed by conducting the determination of PAT and OTA in apple juice sample, indicating the great potential of the aptasensor in practical detection applications.

In the present study, a lanthanide fluorescence sensor array was developed for the discrimination of honey’s botanical origin. Dipicolinic acid (DPA) was used as the antenna ligand for sensitizing the fluorescence of Tb3+and Eu3+to prepare the DPA-Tb3+/Eu3+complex. This lanthanide fluorescence sensor showed a cross-reactive response to the major constituents of honey, which led to the result that different classes of honey solution exhibited distinct quenching effects on the fluorescence of the DPA-Tb3+/Eu3+complex. Furthermore, a fluorescence sensor array composed of ten sensors was constructed by adjusting the pH and the component of the DPA-Tb3+/Eu3+complex to show multivariate responses towards honey. The visual fluorescence image of the sensor array was recorded by using a smartphone under excitation with portable UV lamp. Results indicated that the pattern of the visual image was related with the botanical origin. After extracting the RGB value of each sensor in 96-well plate, the ratio of R/G was used for principal component analysis (PCA). The results showed that three classes of honey (astragalus, logan, and litchi) were well distinguished. Moreover, the value of principal component 1 (PC1) showed good linearity with the composition of mixing honey and could be used for semi-quantitative analysis. The proposed lanthanide fluorescence sensor array presents a visual and portable method for the discrimination of a honey’s origin without the use of analytical instruments, and might provide a novel and simple strategy for the measurement of food origin.Keywords:honey;botanical origin;lanthanide complex;fluorescence;sensor array

Previously reported fluorescent sensors for Th 4+ experienced emission quenching or generated false positive signal upon aggregate formation in aqueous media. Herein, a simple and novel thorium sensor ( CDB-BA ) based on cyanodistyrene structure was designed and synthesized, which integrated the highly emitting characteristic of AIE effect and off-on response of PET modulation for the first time to construct the “turn-on” fluorescent probe for Th 4+ . Besides excellent selectivity, CDB-BA exhibited remarkable fluorescent enhancement which was linearly related to the concentration of Th 4+ in the range of 0.25–8 μM. The detection limit was attained 0.074 μM, which was lower than that of most previously reported sensors. The mechanism of tris-chelate complex of CDB-BA with Th 4+ was confirmed by mass spectra, IR spectra and DFT calculation. The excellent Th 4+ sensing ability of CDB-BA was successfully applied to detecting Th 4+ on TLC plates, in real water samples and living-cell imaging. This work suggested that the combination of AIE and PET photophysical mechanism could offer the merits of minimized background and enhanced signal fidelity to develop novel “turn-on” fluorescent probe in complicated aqueous environment and biological research.

Benefiting from specific target recognition and trans-cleavage capabilities, the CRISPR/Cas12a system has great application prospects in the design of highly sensitive and rapid fluorescence biosensors. The CRISPR/Cas12a-based fluorophore-quencher molecular beacons exhibit single-color emission and are easily exposed to interference from environmental factors. Herein, we design a CRISPR/Cas12a-derived ratiometric fluorescence sensor for Pb 2+ detection based on embedded carbon dots@zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (CDs@ZIF-8) composites and DNAzyme. The functions of ZIF-8 about encapsulating red emissive CDs in the inner cavity and adsorbing DNA on the outer surface are integrated to establish dual fluorescence signals, thereby reducing the possibility of interference and improving sensing accuracy. The presence of Pb 2+ is converted into the change of activator by the GR5 DNAzyme to activate the CRISPR/Cas12a system, which provides signal amplification through multiple turnovers of side branch cutting, achieving highly sensitive detection of Pb 2+ with a low detection limit of 18 pM. This method has the advantages of simplicity, universality, and excellent quantitative ability, and has broad prospects in sensing applications.

Fluorescent sensors had been extensively applied on sensing various biomolecules effectively, but no fluorescent sensor for oleanolic acid was presented up to now. In this work, the first fluorescent sensor for oleanolic acid was designed and synthesized based on o-phenyl-bridged bis-tetraphenylimidazole ( PTPI ). PTPI was prepared by bridging two tetraphenylimidazole units and o-phenylenediamine via Schiff-base condensation in yield of 86%. PTPI showed high sensing selectivity for oleanolic acid among 26 biomolecules and ions. The blue fluorescence at 482 nm was enhanced by 4.5 times after sensing oleanolic acid in aqueous media. The fluorescence sensing ability of PTPI for oleanolic acid maintained stable in pH = 5–9. The detecting limitation was as low as 0.032 μM. The detecting mechanism was clarified as 1:1 binding stoichiometry by fluorescence Job’s plot, mass spectrometry, 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The detecting ability of PTPI for oleanolic acid was successfully used for paper test and real samples of grapes and Kuding tea with recoveries in the range of 96.0%-106.0%, indicating the good application potential for on-site detecting oleanolic acid in real samples of fruits and food.
