As the second most abundant transition metal element in the human body, zinc ions play an important role in the normal growth and development of the human body. We have successfully synthesized a near-infrared fluorescent probe with FRET effect for the detection of Zn 2+ . Probe DR6G has good selectivity and anti-interference ability for Zn 2+ . When Zn 2+ is added to the probe DR6G solution, it responds completely within seconds, releasing red fluorescence with a detection limit of 2.02 × 10 −8 M. As the main product of ATP hydrolysis, PPi is indispensable in various metabolic activities in cells and the human body. Due to the strong binding ability of Zn 2+ and PPi, it is easy to form ZnPPi precipitation, so we added PPi to the solution to complete the Zn 2+ detection, and realized the continuous detection of PPi, and the detection limit was 2.06 × 10 −8 M. Since Zn 2+ and PPi play an important role in vivo, it is of great practical significance to design and synthesize a fluorescent probe that can continuously detect Zn 2+ and PPi. Biological experiments have shown that the probe DR6G has low cytotoxicity and can complete the detection of exogenous Zn 2+ and PPi in cells and living mice in vitro. Bacterial experiments have shown that the DR6G probe also has certain research value in the field of environmental monitoring and microbiology. Due to the constant variation of the fluorescence signals of Zn 2+ and PPi during detection, we designed the logic gate program. In practical applications, the probe DR6G can quantitatively detect Zn 2+ in zinc-containing oral liquids and qualitatively detect PPi in toothpaste.

Advanced data storage and anti-counterfeiting technologies are critical in addressing modern information safety. In this work, novel nanocomposites of Eu3+, Tb3+, Zn2+ and -hyaluronan for down-conversion and NaGdF4:Yb,Er nanoparticles for up-conversion have been synthesized and applied for innovative anticounterfeiting luminescent inks. These inks exhibit excellent fluorescence under dual UV or NIR excitation, and sensitive quenching in response to some ions or compounds, enabling multi-level data encoding, reversible Cu2+ detection, and dynamic information concealment. Utilizing electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing, we achieved precise patterns with line widths of approximately 20–50 μm, facilitating dynamic information concealment and secure data storage. The printed patterns, invisible under natural light, displayed distinct and bright fluorescence when stimulated by UV and NIR light, offering orthogonal readout capabilities for secure information retrieval. Additionally, the luminescent inks demonstrated remarkable sensitivity to Cu2+ ions, with fluorescence quenching efficiency reaching 85.3% at a Cu2+ concentration of 100 μg mL−1. The quenching process was reversible upon introducing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), enabling up to three cycles of fluorescence recovery and suppression with minor degradation (<15%) in intensity after repeated use. The high-resolution EHD printing technology combined with excellent sensing performance, such as a detection limit of 1.2 μg mL−1 for Cu2+, enables a promising strategy for advancing intelligent information systems and hazardous ion detection. This work offers a versatile solution for secure information coding, anti-counterfeiting, and environmental sensing, providing a significant advancement in multifunctional luminescent materials, especially for smart quadruplicate information coding and hazard sensing, with dual UV/IR excitation.

Four new coordination polymers, including 1D, 2D and 3D structures, were synthesized via a hydrothermal method using Cd2+/Zn2+/Cu2+ metal salts as nodes. These polymers were formed through self-assembly of four different dicarboxylic acid ligands, namely adamantane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (H2adc), glutaric acid (H2glu), 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid (H2hip) and fumaric acid (H2fum), in conjunction with the auxiliary ligand [1,4-bis(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)piperazine (bpmp). The corresponding formulae are [Cd3(adc)2(bpmp)Cl2(H2O)2]n (1), {[Cd2(glu)2(bpmp)2(H2O)2]·8H2O·2CH3OH}n (2), [Zn(hip)(bpmp)(H2O)]n (3) and [Cu(fum)(bpmp)(H2O)2]n (4). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the Cd2+ centers in complex 1 all adopt a six-coordinate mode but two distinct {CdO2N2Cl2} and {CuO5Cl} units. The 3D network of complex 1 can be simplified to a binodal (4.6)-connected underlying net with the point symbol (3·42·5·62)4(32·62·72·88·10). Each Cd2+ cation in complex 2 adopts a seven-coordinate {CdO5N2} center, forming an asymmetric pentagonal bipyramidal coordination. Its stacking structure is formed by the interaction of hydrogen bonds between 2D supramolecular layers, with the adjacent layers exhibiting mirror symmetry. Each Zn2+ ion in complex 3 displays a {ZnO3N} four-coordinate unit. Its stacking structure is formed by one-dimensional [Zn(hip)(bpmp)(H2O)]n chains connected through hydrogen bonds. On the other hand, complex 4 features a Jahn–Teller distorted {CuO4N2} octahedral coordination. Subsequently, the thermal stability of these complexes was investigated. The solid-state fluorescence spectroscopy was employed to analyze complexes 1, 2 and 3. Additionally, a Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed on complex 3.

In organisms, the over ingesting of Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ will result in the poisoning of living cells, which severely damages the human body. Meanwhile, endogenous Histidine (His) can cause metabolic disorders like Histidinemia (His). Therefore, it is a pressing matter to design an effective method that accurately detects the amount of Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ , and His. In our study, through the nucleophilic addition and substitution reactions synthesis methods, a novel multifunctional probe, Rhodamine derivatives with vinyl functional groups at the end (RHDA) was designed and synthesized. The probe RHDA can recognize Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ separately, and the experiment further substantiates that the RHDA probe can demonstrate various turn-on colorimetric and fluorescent signals, i.e ., selectively detecting Cu 2+ in DMSO/H 2 O solution (v/v=4/6) with the “naked-eye” show evident and significant color change from colorless to pink and Zn 2+ with strong green fluorescence in DMF/H 2 O (v/v=1/1). Under optimal conditions, they could be identified under the low detection limit of 0.10 μmol·L −1 and 16.0 nmol·L −1 for Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ , respectively. Furthermore, Histidine (His) was recognized by the formed RHDA-Zn 2+ with a fluorescence “turn-off” range of 0.03–10.0 μM and a detection limit of 230.0 nmol L −1 . This article performed an extensive study of the sensing mechanisms of RHDA toward two metal ions and the ensemble RHDA-Zn 2+ toward His. The practical application experiments in DMF/H 2 O (v/v=1/1) further established that the chemosensor RHDA exhibits good cell permeability and could be employed to monitor free Zn 2+ . Finally, the complex RHDA-Zn 2+ could be applied to assay His in the living HeLa cells and zebrafishes, respectively.

A GOx/HRP@ZIF-90 nanomaterial is proposed by coating GOx and HRP in ZIF-90 using a bio-simulated mineralization method to improve the tolerance of the enzyme to the external environment. In the detection process, the ZIF-90 is turned on under mild conditions by the competitive reaction of ATP with Zn 2+ and imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde (2-ICA), and the electrical signal of the system is amplified by the enzyme cascade reaction of GOx and HRP. Finally, based on the signal amplification strategy of the competitive reaction between Zn 2+ and ATP to construct a “signal on” mode, electrochemical immunosensor of GOx-HRP enzyme–linked cascade reaction was prepared. The proposed electrochemical immunosensor shows an excellent analytical performance when detecting CA-125, with good selectivity and stability, with a detection range of 0.1 pg mL −1 –40 ng mL −1 and a detection limit of 0.05 pg mL −1 . The test has been performed using chronoamperometry under a constant voltage of −0.4 V. The immunosensor also shows an excellent performance when analysing human blood samples. The recovery of the immunosensor is 97.94–101.8%, with a relative standard deviation of 3.7–6.1%. The proposed sensor provides a novel idea for clinical use of GOx and HRP enzymes and a new method for the clinical detection of tumor markers. Graphical abstract

A wound evolves with variable pHs depending on the healing stage, and the maintenance of mild acidic condition can help healing by deterring the formation of a biofilm. Herein, a dual-layer wound dressing with an acid-responsive zeolitic imidazolate framework–8 (ZIF-8) layer and an acid-modulating layer is designed to control the acid-dependent release of therapeutic agents for the improved healing process. The outer dressing layer is coated with curcumin-incorporated ZIF-8, where curcumin and zinc ions are released upon dissociation of ZIF-8 in an acidic condition. The inner layer, a pH modulator, is fabricated by electrospinning polyvinylpyrrolidone with addition of acetic acid. In vitro release test shows that the outer layer dressing attains a considerably higher release of curcumin and Zn 2+ under an acidic condition. Combined with the inner acidic layer, the dual layer dressing exhibits facilitated release of effective agents regardless of environmental pHs, attributed to the proper pH modulation to about 6.5. The anti-oxidant activity of curcumin and antibacterial activity of Zn 2+ are confirmed. The study highlights the novel proof-of-concept design of active wound dressing demonstrating the dual functions of pH regulation and the stimulus-responsive drug delivery.

In this study, we used solid-state synthesis to prepare Ba[(ZnxCo1−x)1/3(Nb0.5Ta0.5)2/3]O3microwave ceramics for mobile communications. Compared with Ba[Zn1/3(Nb0.5Ta0.5)2/3]O3, in the prepared materials, Co2+substitution with Zn2+improved the Q × f value and enabled densification and sintering at a lower temperature. We used X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to analyze the obtained microstructure. Ba[(ZnxCo1−x)1/3(Nb0.5Ta0.5)2/3]O3was found to have a 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure, and its Q × f value increased with the increase in sintering temperature. In this work, excellent microwave dielectric properties—τf= −0.7 ppm/°C, εr= 34.5, and Q × f = 110,000 GHz—were obtained by sintering Ba[(Zn0.3Co0.7)1/3(Nb0.5Ta0.5)2/3]O3at 1400 °C for 5 h.

A novel bifunctional thiophene-based Schiff base TS as a colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on sensor for rapid and simultaneous detection of Al 3+ and Zn 2+ ions with high selectivity and sensitivity has been developed. The sensor shows remarkable fluorescence enhancement response for Al 3+ and Zn 2+ over a broad pH range with good anti-interference capability, which accompanied with an obvious color change easily detected by naked eyes. Sensor TS can detect as low as 3.7 × 10 −9 M for Al 3+ and 3.0 × 10 −8 M for Zn 2+ , whereas respective association constants are 1.16 × 10 4 M −1 and 2.08 × 10 4 M −1 . With the help of fluorescence titration and Job's plot, the stoichiometric ratio of TS with Al 3+ /Zn 2+ was determined to be 1:1. The sensing mechanism of sensor TS with Al 3+ /Zn 2+ based on the chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) was analyzed in detail through 1 H NMR titration, FTIR, HRMS and DFT studies . Moreover, sensor TS has been applied to the detection of Al 3+ and Zn 2+ in real environmental water and food samples as well as the filter paper-based test strips. Furthermore, sensor TS has good cell-permeability and can be used to selectively sense intracellular Al 3+ and Zn 2+ by bioimaging.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have attracted significant attention owing to their inherent security, low cost, abundant zinc (Zn) resources and high energy density. Nevertheless, the growth of zinc dendrites and side reactions on the surface of Zn anodes during repeatedly plating/stripping shorten the cycle life of AZIBs. Herein, a simple organic molecule with abundant polar functional groups, 2,2,2-trifluoroether formate (TF), has been proposed as a high-efficient additive in the ZnSO 4 electrolyte to suppress the growth of Zn dendrites and side reaction during cycling. It is found that TF molecules can infiltrate the solvated sheath layer of the hydrated Zn 2+ to reduce the number of highly chemically active H 2 O molecules owing to their strong binding energy with Zn 2+ . Simultaneously, TF molecules can preferentially adsorb onto the Zn surface, guiding the uniform deposition of Zn 2+ along the crystalline surface of Zn(0 0 2). This dual action significantly inhibits the formation of Zn dendrites and side reactions, thus greatly extending the cycling life of the batteries. Accordingly, the Zn//Cu asymmetric cell with 2 % TF exhibits stable cycling for more than 3,800 cycles, achieving an excellent average Columbic efficiency (CE) of 99.81 % at 2 mA cm −2 /1 mAh cm −2 . Meanwhile, the Zn||Zn symmetric cell with 2 % TF demonstrates a superlong cycle life exceeding 3,800 h and 2,400 h at 2 mA cm −2 /1 mAh cm −2 and 5 mA cm −2 /2.5 mAh cm −2 , respectively. Simultaneously, the Zn//VO 2 full cell with 2 % TF possesses high initial capacity (276.8 mAh/g) and capacity retention (72.5 %) at 5 A/g after 500 cycles. This investigation provides new insights into stabilizing Zn metal anodes for AZIBs through the co-regulation of Zn 2+ solvated structure and surface crystallography.

In this study, a zinc-based MOF material-[Zn 2 (btc)(atrz)(H 2 O) 2 ]·2H 2 O (btc = benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid, artz = 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole) was designed and applied as a sorbent for the vortex-assisted micro-solid-phase extraction (VA-µ-SPE) of UV filters from water and toner samples, followed by high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector determination. Parameters affecting VA-µ-SPE such as sorbent amount, desorption solvent, vortex time, desorption time, solution pH and salt concentration were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, linearity of the UV filters was obtained in the range of 5(10)–1000 ng mL −1 , and the correlation coefficient was higher than 0.9959. The limits of detection ranged between 1.5 and 3.2 ng mL −1 and limits of quantification were in the range of 4.2–10 ng mL −1 . The relative standard deviations were in the range of 2.3–7.1%. The recoveries for the spiked real samples were in the range of 90.7–111.3% with relative standard deviation less than 7.2%. It proved to be a fast, accurate and convenient method for extraction of UV filters from different matrices.
