Abstract
Controlling glucose (Glu) intake is a "required course" for diabetics, thus quickly and precisely measuring the amount of Glu in food is crucial. For this purpose, a novel smartphone-assisted portable swab for the dual-mode visual detection of Glu was constructed combined the selectivity of natural enzymes with the controllable catalytic activity of nanozymes. Glu was specifically decomposed by glucose oxidase (natural enzyme) to produce H2O2, which was catalyzed by carbon dots (FeMn/N-CDs, nanozyme) to accelerate the reaction of o-phenylenediamine (OPD, colorless) to produce 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP, yellow). As a result, the absorbance at 450 nm gradually increased with the increasing concentration of Glu, leading to a color change in the system from colorless to yellow. Meanwhile, the fluorescence of FeMn/N-CDs gradually decreased at 450 nm, while the fluorescence of DAP gradually increased at 550 nm, allowing for both ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric dual-mode detection. Furthermore, natural enzyme and nanozyme together with OPD were co-loaded on the swabs to achieve cascade catalysis of Glu. The assembled portable swabs have detection ranges of 1-600 μM (LOD = 0.37 μM) and 4-1200 μM (LOD = 1.19 μM) for the colorimetric and fluorometric detection, respectively. The field test results on real samples demonstrated that the portable swabs have great promise for use in efficiently and accurately guiding the dietary intake of diabetics.

Abstract
Optical continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems are emerging for personalized glucose management owing to their lower cost and prolonged durability compared to conventional electrochemical CGMs. Here, we report a computational CGM system, which integrates a biocompatible phosphorescence-based insertable biosensor and a custom-designed phosphorescence lifetime imager (PLI). This compact and cost-effective PLI is designed to capture phosphorescence lifetime images of an insertable sensor through the skin, where the lifetime of the emitted phosphorescence signal is modulated by the local concentration of glucose. Because this phosphorescence signal has a very long lifetime compared to tissue autofluorescence or excitation leakage processes, it completely bypasses these noise sources by measuring the sensor emission over several tens of microseconds after the excitation light is turned off. The lifetime images acquired through the skin are processed by neural network-based models for misalignment-tolerant inference of glucose levels, accurately revealing normal, low (hypoglycemia) and high (hyperglycemia) concentration ranges. Using a 1 mm thick skin phantom mimicking the optical properties of human skin, we performed in vitro testing of the PLI using glucose-spiked samples, yielding 88.8% inference accuracy, also showing resilience to random and unknown misalignments within a lateral distance of ∼4.7 mm with respect to the position of the insertable sensor underneath the skin phantom. Furthermore, the PLI accurately identified larger lateral misalignments beyond 5 mm, prompting user intervention for realignment. The misalignment-resilient glucose concentration inference capability of this compact and cost-effective PLI makes it an appealing wearable diagnostics tool for real-time tracking of glucose and other biomarkers.

Abstract
The past few decades have witnessed encouraging progress in the development of high-performance film-based fluorescent sensors (FFSs) for detecting explosives, illicit drugs, chemical warfare agents (CWAs), and hazardous volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), among others. Several FFSs have transitioned from laboratory research to real-world applications, demonstrating their practical relevance. At the heart of FFS technology lies the sensing films, which play a crucial role in determining the analytes and the resulting signals. The selection of sensing fluorophores and the fabrication strategies employed in film construction are key factors that influence the fluorescence properties, active-layer structures, and overall sensing behaviors of these films. This review examines the progress and innovations in the research field of FFSs over the past two decades, focusing on advancements in fluorophore design and active-layer structural engineering. It underscores popular sensing fluorophore scaffolds and the dynamics of excited state processes. Additionally, it delves into six distinct categories of film fabrication technologies and strategies, providing insights into their advantages and limitations. This review further addresses important considerations such as photostability and substrate effects. Concluding with an overview of the field's challenges and prospects, it sheds light on the potential for further development in this burgeoning area.

Abstract
In biological systems, nucleotide quadruplexes (such as G-quadruplexes) in DNA and RNA that are held together by multiple hydrogen bonds play a crucial functional role. The biomimetic formation of these hydrogen-bonded quadruplexes captured by artificial systems in water poses a significant challenge but can offer valuable insights into these complex functional structures. Herein, we report the formation of biomimetic hydrogen-bonded G ⋅ C ⋅ G ⋅ C quadruplex captured by a tetraphenylethene (TPE) based octacationic spirobicycle (1). The spirobicyclic compound possesses a three-dimensional (3D) crossing dual-cavity structure, which enables the encapsulation of four d(GpC) dinucleotide molecules, thereby realizing 1 : 4 host-guest complexation in water. The X-ray structure reveals that four d(GpC) molecules further form a two-layer G ⋅ C ⋅ G ⋅ C quadruplex with Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds, which are stabilized within the dual hydrophobic cavities of 1 through the cooperative non-covalent interactions of hydrogen bonds, CH⋅⋅⋅π interactions, and hydrophobic effect. Due to the dynamically-rotational propeller chirality of TPE units, 1 with adaptive chirality can further serve as a chiroptical sensor to exhibit opposite Cotton effects with mirror-image CD spectra for the pH-dependent hydrogen-bonded assemblies of d(GpC) including the Watson-Crick G ⋅ C ⋅ G ⋅ C (pH 9.22) and Hoogsteen G ⋅ C+ ⋅ G ⋅ C+ (pH 5.74) quartets through the host-guest chirality transfer in water.

Abstract
Carbohydrates are abundant in Nature, where they are mostly assembled within glycans as free polysaccharides or conjugated to a variety of biological molecules such as proteins and lipids. Glycans exert several functions, including protein folding, stability, solubility, resistance to proteolysis, intracellular traffic, antigenicity, and recognition by carbohydrate-binding proteins. Interestingly, misregulation of their biosynthesis that leads to changes in glycan structures is frequently recognized as a mark of a disease state. Because of glycan ubiquity, carbohydrate binding agents (CBAs) targeting glycans can lead to a deeper understanding of their function and to the development of new diagnostic and prognostic strategies. Synthetic receptors selectively recognizing specific carbohydrates of biological interest have been developed over the past three decades. In addition to the success obtained in the effective recognition of monosaccharides, synthetic receptors recognizing more complex guests have also been developed, including di- and oligosaccharide fragments of glycans, shedding light on the structural and functional requirements necessary for an effective receptor. In this review, the most relevant achievements in molecular recognition of glycans and their fragments will be summarized, highlighting potentials and future perspectives of glycan-targeting synthetic receptors.

Abstract
The development of synthetic receptors capable of selectively binding guests with diverse structures and multiple functional groups poses a significant challenge. Here, we present the efficient assembly of foldamer-based receptors for monosaccharides, utilising the principles of complexation-induced equilibrium shifting and adaptive folding. Diimine 4 can be quantitatively assembled from smaller components when D-galactose is added as a guest among monosaccharides we examined. During this assembly, dual complexation-induced equilibrium shifts toward both the formation of diimine 4 and the conversion of D-galactose into α-D-galactofuranose are observed. Diimine 6 is quantitatively assembled in the presence of two different guests, methyl β-D-glucopyranoside and methyl β-D-galactopyranoside, resulting in the formation of two dimeric complexes: (6-MP)2⊃(methyl β-D-glucopyranoside)2 and (6-MM)2⊃(methyl β-D-galactopyranoside∙2H2O)2, respectively. These two complexes exhibit distinct folding structures with domain-swapping cavities depending on the bound guest and temperature. Interestingly, (6-MM)2⊃(methyl β-D-galactopyranoside∙2H2O)2 is exclusively formed at lower temperatures, while (6-MP)2⊃(methyl β-D-glucopyranoside)2 is only formed at higher temperatures.

Abstract
As a result of the transformation of inflexible electronic structures into flexible and stretchy devices, wearable electronics now provide great advantages in a variety of fields, including mobile healthcare sensing and monitoring, human-machine interfaces, portable energy storage and harvesting, and more. Because of their enriched surface functionalities, large surface area, and high electrical conductivity, transition metal nitrides and carbides (also known as MXenes) have recently come to be extensively considered as a group of functioning two-dimensional nanomaterials as well as exceptional fundamental elements for forming flexible electronics devices. This Review discusses the most recent advancements that have been made in the field of MXene-enabled flexible electronics for wearable electronics. The emphasis is placed on extensively established nonstructural features in order to highlight some MXene-enabled electrical devices that were constructed on a nanometric scale. These attributes include devices configured in three dimensions: printed materials, bioinspired structures, and textile and planar substrates. In addition, sample applications in electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, energy, healthcare, and humanoid control of machinery illustrate the exceptional development of these nanodevices. The increasing potential of MXene nanoparticles as a new area in next-generation wearable electronic technologies is projected in this Review. The design challenges associated with these electronic devices are also discussed, and possible solutions are presented.

Abstract
This review discusses the most current developments and future perspectives in enzymatic and non-enzymatic glucose sensors, which have notably evolved over the preceding quadrennial period. Furthermore, a thorough exploration encompassed the sensor's intricate fabrication processes, the diverse range of materials employed, the underlying principles of detection, and an in-depth assessment of the sensors' efficacy in detecting glucose levels within essential bodily fluids such as human blood serums, urine, saliva, and interstitial fluids. It is worth noting that the accurate quantification of glucose concentrations within human blood has been effectively achieved by utilizing classical enzymatic sensors harmoniously integrated with optical and electrochemical transduction mechanisms. Monitoring glucose levels in various mediums has attracted exceptional attention from industrial to academic researchers for diabetes management, food quality control, clinical medicine, and bioprocess inspection. There has been an enormous demand for the creation of novel glucose sensors over the past ten years. Research has primarily concentrated on succeeding biocompatible and enhanced sensing abilities related to the present technologies, offering innovative avenues for more effective glucose sensors. Recent developments in wearable optical and electrochemical sensors with low cost, high stability, point-of-care testing, and online tracking of glucose concentration levels in biological fluids can aid in managing and controlling diabetes globally. New nanomaterials and biomolecules that can be used in electrochemical sensor systems to identify glucose concentration levels are developed thanks to advances in nanoscience and nanotechnology. Both enzymatic and non-enzymatic glucose electrochemical sensors have garnered much interest recently and have made significant strides in detecting glucose levels. In this review, we summarise several categories of non-enzymatic glucose sensor materials, including composites, non-precious transition metals and their metal oxides, hydroxides, precious metals and their alloys, carbon-based materials, conducting polymers, metal-organic framework (MOF)-based electrocatalysts, and wearable device-based glucose sensors deeply.

Abstract
New design and synthetic strategies were developed to generate functional phenyl boronic acid (BA)-based fluorescent probes incorporating the 1,8-naphthalimide (NI) tag. This fluorescent core was anchored onto the BA unit through small organic linkers consisting of nitrogen groups which can arrest, and internally stabilise the phenyl-boronate units. The newly synthesised fluorophores were characterised spectroscopically by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry and evaluated for their ability to bind to a naturally occurring polysaccharide, β-d-glucan in DMSO and simultaneously as act as in vitro cell imaging reagents. The uptake of these new NI-boronic acid derivatives was studied living cancer cells (HeLa, PC-3) in the presence, and absence, of β-d-glucan. Time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) of DMSO solutions and two-photon fluorescence-lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) techniques allowed an insight into the probes' interaction with their environment. Their cellular uptake and distributions were imaged using laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy under single- and two-photon excitation regimes (λmax 910 nm). FLIM facilitated the estimation of the impact of the probe's cellular surroundings using the fluorophore lifetime. The extent to which this was mediated by the β-d-glucan was visualised by 2-photon FLIM in living cells. The fluorescence lifetime observed under a range of temperatures varied appreciably, indicating that changes in the environment can be sensed by these probes. In all cases, the cellular membrane penetration of these new probes was remarkable even under variable temperature conditions and localisation was widely concentrated in the cellular cytoplasm, without specific organelle trapping: we conclude that these new probes show promise for cellular imaging in living cancer cells.

Abstract
Fluorescent boronate affinity molecules have gained increasing attention in the field of fluorescence sensing and detection due to their selective recognition capability towards cis-diol-containing molecules (cis-diols). However, the conventional fluorescent boronate affinity molecules face a challenge in differentiating the type of cis-diol only by their fluorescence responses. In this study, a simple method was used to discriminate different types of cis-diols, including nucleosides, nucleotides, sugars, and glycoproteins based on the phenylboronic acid-functionalized fluorescent molecules combined with principal component analysis (PCA). Both fluorescent molecules were simply synthesized by the covalent interaction between the amino group in 3-aminophenyl boronic acid and the isothiocyanate group in fluorescein or rhodamine B. In view of their fluorescence-responsive behaviors to these cis-diols directly, it is impossible to differentiate their types even under the optimized experimental conditions. When PCA was employed to treat the fluorescence response data and the quenching constants with their molecular weight, different types of cis-diols can be distinguished successfully. As a result, by integrating the fluorescence response of the boronate affinity probes with PCA, it can greatly improve the specific recognition capability of the boronic acids, providing a simple and direct way to distinguish and identify different types of cis-diols.

Abstract
Enantiorecognition and resolution are of essential importance in many diverse areas of science. Whenever there arises a need to analyze/investigate enantiomers in different situations chromatography stands up in our minds immediately. Nevertheless, chemoselective and enantioselective recognition/discrimination (without going for separation) constitutes a different perception and requirement. The techniques using chiroptical sensing cause detection based on molecular interactions induced in different manners. Enantioselective sensing of monosaccharides in γ-cyclodextrin assembly and by diboronic acid based fluorescent sensors, application of bi-naphthol and H8 BINOL based sensors and dendrimers, metal-to-ligand charge transfer transitions in CD, exciton-coupled circular dichroism, surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and enantioselective indicator displacement sensor arrays for enantioselective recognition/detection of chiral organic compounds, such as amines, amino acids/alcohols, and hydroxycarboxylic acids have been discussed in progressive manner with mechanistic explanations, wherever available. Besides, the chiroptical vs LC approach has been discussed. The present paper is focused on certain different non-chromatographic optical techniques and aims to extend an understanding and a view to consider such techniques which have been successful in selective detection, and determination of absolute configuration and enantiomeric excess, (without resorting to separation vis-à-vis LC) and that have potential use in high-throughput chiral assay and combinatorial search for asymmetric catalysts and reagents.

Abstract
A facile and sensitive glucose sandwich assay using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been developed. Glucose was captured by 3-aminopheyonyl boronic acid (APBA) modified Ag nanoparticles decorated onto a polyamide surface. Then, Ag nanoparticles modified with 3-amino-6-ethynylpicolinonitrile (AEPO) and APBA were used as SERS tags. APBA forms specific cis-diol compounds with glucose molecules avoiding interference by other saccharides and biomolecules in urine enabling its selective detection. As the actual Raman reporter, AEPO exhibited a distinctive SERS peak in the Raman silent region, thus increasing the sensitivity of the glucose detection to 10-11 M. Additionally, the developed SERS assay was reusable, and its applicability in artificial urine samples demonstrated future clinical utility confirming the potential of this innovative technology as a diagnostic tool for glucose sensing.

Abstract
We herein describe the preparation, assembly, recognition characteristics, and biocompatibility of novel covalent basket cage CBC-11, composed of four molecular baskets linked to four trivalent aromatic amines through amide groups. The cage is tetrahedral in shape and similar in size to small proteins (Mw =8637 g/mol) with a spacious nonpolar interior for accommodating multiple guests. While 24 carboxylates at the outer surface of CBC-11 render it soluble in aqueous phosphate buffer (PBS) at pH=7.0, the amphiphilic nature prompts its assembly into nanoparticles (d=250 nm, DLS). Cryo-TEM examination of nanoparticles revealed their crystalline nature with wafer-like shapes and hexagonally arranged cages. Nanoparticulate CBC-11 traps anticancer drugs irinotecan and doxorubicin, with each cage binding up to four drug molecules in a non-cooperative manner. The inclusion complexation resulted in nanoparticles growing in size and precipitating. In media containing mammalian cells (HCT 116, human colon carcinoma), the IC50 value of CBC-11 was above 100 μM. While this work presents the first example of a large covalent organic cage operating in water at the physiological pH and forming crystalline nanoparticles, it also demonstrates its biocompatibility and potential to act as a polyvalent binder of drugs for their sequestration or delivery.

Abstract
Increasing evidence supports the critical role of saccharides in various pathophysiological steps of tumor progression, where they regulate tumor proliferation, invasion, hematogenic metastasis, and angiogenesis. The identification and recognition of these saccharides provide a solid foundation for the development of targeted drug preparations, which are however not fully understood due to their complex and similar structures. In order to achieve fluorescence sensing of saccharides, extensive research has been conducted to design molecular probes and nanoparticles made of different materials. This paper aims to provide in-depth discussion of three main topics that cover the current status of the carbohydrate sensing based on the fluorescence sensing mechanism, including a phenylboronic acid-based sensing platform, non-boronic acid entities, as well as an enzyme-based sensing platform. It also highlights efforts made to understand the recognition mechanisms and improve the sensing properties of these systems. Finally, we present the challenge of achieving high selectivity and sensitivity recognition of saccharides, and suggest possible future avenues for exploration.

Abstract
Recently, hydrogels have attracted great attention because of their unique properties, including stretchability, self-adhesion, transparency, and biocompatibility. They can transmit electrical signals for potential applications in flexible electronics, human-machine interfaces, sensors, actuators, et al. MXene, a newly emerged two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterial, is an ideal candidate for wearable sensors, benefitting from its surface's negatively charged hydrophilic nature, biocompatibility, high specific surface area, facile functionalization, and high metallic conductivity. However, stability has been a limiting factor for MXene-based applications, and fabricating MXene into hydrogels has been proven to significantly improve their stability. The unique and complex gel structure and gelation mechanism of MXene hydrogels require intensive research and engineering at nanoscale. Although the application of MXene-based composites in sensors has been widely studied, the preparation methods and applications of MXene-based hydrogels in wearable electronics is relatively rare. Thus, in order to facilitate the effective evolution of MXene hydrogel sensors, the design strategies, preparation methods, and applications of MXene hydrogels for flexible and wearable electronics are comprehensively discussed and summarized in this work.

Abstract
Fabricating more sensitive, stable and low-cost nanomaterials for the detection of glucose is important for the disease diagnosis and monitoring. Herein, we established a nanocomposite (polypyrrole bridging GO@Au@MnO2) as a novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobe for the quantitative detection of glucose in trace serum. Each component in the nanocomposites played an irreplaceable role in SERS detection of glucose. Polypyrrole (PPy) could act as Raman signal and extra SERS signal molecules didn't need to be introduced; Graphene oxide (GO) and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) could enhance Raman signal of PPy; Au NPs also acted as glucose oxidase, which can oxidize glucose to produce gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide(H2O2); Manganese oxide (MnO2) further enhanced Raman signal of PPy and responded to hydrogen peroxide, which will induce the decrease of Raman intensity of PPy. Thus, glucose can be quantified according to Raman signal output of PPy, which displayed a liner range from 1 to 10 μM, with detectable limit of 0.114 μM. Because of the merits in sensitivity, convenience and versatility, the novel method shows large potential space for disease-related substance detection in the future.

Abstract
To solve the problems of low bioavailability and low intestinal release efficiency of curcumin as a hydrophobic drug in the treatment of diabetes, a novel alginate ester/Antarctic krill protein/2-formylphenylboronic acid (AE/AKP/2-FPBA) skin-core structural fiber with pH and glucose stimulation responsiveness was prepared by an acid-catalyzed polyol in situ crosslinked phase separation method as a drug delivery system. The reaction mechanism and apparent morphology of the fiber were studied. The controlled release ability of the fiber in simulated liquids was evaluated. AE targeted the release of curcumin by pH stimulation; the release amount in the simulated colonic fluid reached 100%, while the release amount in the simulated digestive fluid was less than 12%. 2-FPBA controlled the release rate of curcumin by glucose stimulation, which increases with the increase of 2-FPBA content. Moreover, the cytotoxicity test confirmed that the skin-core structural fiber was non-toxic. These results suggest that skin-core structural fibers have great potential as curcumin delivery systems.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), as an important intracellular energy currency produced in mitochondria, is closely related to various diseases in living organisms. Currently, the biological application of AIE fluorophore as a fluorescent probe for ATP detection in mitochondria is rarely reported. Herein, D-π-A and D-A structure-based tetraphenylethylene (TPE) fluorophores were employed to synthesize six different ATP probes (P1-P6), and the phenylboronic acid groups and dual positive charge sites of probes could interact with the vicinal diol of ribose and negatively charged triphosphate structure of ATP, respectively. However, P1 and P4 with a boronic acid group and a positive charge site had poor selectivity for ATP detection. In contrast, P2, P3, P5, and P6 with dual positive charge sites exhibited better selectivity than P1 and P4. In particular, P2 had more advantages of high sensitivity, selectivity, and good time stability for ATP detection than P3, P5, and P6, which was ascribed to its D-π-A structure, linker 1 (1,4-bis(bromomethyl)benzene), and dual positive charge recognition sites. Then, P2 was employed to detect ATP, and it exhibited a low detection limit of 3.62 μM. Moreover, P2 showed utility in the monitoring of mitochondrial ATP level fluctuations.

Abstract
AbstractThis paper describes a simple electrochemical sensing platform based on single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) electrodes for glucose detection. The device fabrication using O2-plasma treatment allows precision and uniformity for the construction of three SWCNT electrodes on the flexible plastic substrate. Glucose assay can be simply accomplished by introducing a glucose sample into the fabricated biosensor. The marked electrocatalytic and biocompatible properties of biosensors based on SWCNT electrodes with the incorporation of ferrocenecarboxylic acid and polyethylene glycol enable effective amperometric measurement of glucose at a low oxidation potential (0.3 V) with low interferences from coexisting species. The device shows efficient electroanalytical performances with high sensitivity (5.5 μA·mM−1·cm−2), good reproducibility (CV less than 3%), and long-term stability (over a month). A linear range of response was found from 0 to 10 mM of glucose with a fast response time of 10 s. This attractive electroanalytical device based on GOx/FCA/PEG/SWCNT electrodes offers a promising system to facilitate a new approach for diverse biosensors and electrochemical devices.

Abstract
The photo-quenching mechanism of 2-(4-phenylboronic acid)-1-pyrenemethamide (C1-APB), which has potential application as a saccharide-recognition sensor, was investigated. By performing temperature-dependent time-resolved photoluminescence measurements, we determined the mechanism responsible for the photo-quenching properties of C1-APB to be a photoinduced electron transfer (PET). Moreover, the dependence of the electron transfer rate (kPET) on the solvent water concentration was explored in detail, and it was found that kPET increased by many orders of magnitude with increasing water concentrations. This phenomenon was analyzed using the Marcus model, in which the electron transfer can be represented by a potential diagram involving the potential barrier (ΔGa) and frequency factor (A). With the aid of temperature-dependent measurements, the contribution of ΔGa and A to the increase in kPET was successfully analyzed independently, which allowed us to discuss the effect of water molecule orientation and change in molecular structure of C1-APB. The temperature-dependence measurements performed in this study offer a powerful research tool for investigating the PET process, and will contribute to the development of molecular recognition fluorescent sensors.

Abstract
We propose a boron-rhodamine-containing carboxylic acid (BRhoC) substance as a new sugar chemosensor. BRhoC was obtained by the Friedel-Crafts reaction of 4-formylbenzoic acid and N,N-dimethylphenylboronic acid, followed by chloranil oxidation. In an aqueous buffer solution at pH 7.4, BRhoC exhibited an absorption maximum (Absmax) at 621 nm. Its molar absorption coefficient at Absmax was calculated to be 1.4 × 105 M-1 cm-1, and it exhibited an emission maximum (Emmax) at 644 nm for the excitation at 621 nm. The quantum yield of BRhoC in CH3OH was calculated to be 0.16. The borinate group of BRhoC reacted with a diol moiety of sugar to form a cyclic ester, which induced a change in the absorbance and fluorescence spectra. An increase in the D-fructose (Fru) concentration resulted in the red shift of the Absmax (621 nm without sugar and 637 nm with 100 mM Fru) and Emmax (644 nm without sugar and 658 nm with 100 mM Fru) peaks. From the curve fitting of the plots of the fluorescence intensity ratio at 644 nm and 658 nm, the binding constants (K) were determined to be 2.3 × 102 M-1 and 3.1 M-1 for Fru and D-glucose, respectively. The sugar-binding ability and presence of a carboxyl group render BRhoC a suitable building block for the fabrication of highly advanced chemosensors.

Abstract
Fluorescence recognition of d-glucose in water with excellent sensitivity, selectivity, and chiral selectivity is desired because d-glucose is an essential component in biological and pathological processes. We report an innovative approach that exploits the 1:2 stoichiometric inclusion complexes of γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CyD) with two molecules of fluorescent monoboronic acid-based receptors, which form a pseudo-diboronic acid moiety as the recognition site for d-glucose in water. Two monoboronic acids (1F and 2N) were easily synthesized without heating or column purification. The 1:2 stoichiometric inclusion complexes (1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD) were prepared in a mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide/water (2/98 in v/v) by mixing γ-CyD and the corresponding monoboronic acids. Both 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD exhibited strong turn-on response to d-glucose with excellent selectivity over nine other saccharides in the water-rich solvent at pH 7.4 owing to the ditopic recognition of d-glucose by the pseudo-diboronic acid moieties. The limits of detection of 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD for d-glucose were 1.1 and 1.8 μM, respectively, indicating the remarkable sensitivity for the detection of d-glucose at μM levels. 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD also demonstrated chiral-selective recognition of d-glucose, which is apparent from the 2.0- and 6.3-fold enhancement of fluorescence by the addition of d-glucose relative to l-glucose addition, owing to the chiral pseudo-diboronic acid moieties produced by the chiral γ-CyD cavity. To the best of our knowledge, 2N/γ-CyD has the highest d/l selectivity among hitherto reported fluorescent diboronic acid-based receptors.

Abstract
External-stimuli-responsive smart viscoelastic systems have the potential for diverse applications. Worm-like micelles (WLMs) are distinct viscoelastic systems. Several stimuli-responsive WLMs have been reported thus far, in which modifications are triggered by pH variations, redox reactions, temperature shifts, and light. However, sugar-responsive WLMs have not been reported. Phenylboronic acid (PBA) reversibly forms cyclic ester with cis-diol compounds; therefore, it serves as a cis-diol sensor for compounds such as glucose (Glc) and fructose (Fru). Adding PBA to cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in a basic medium induces the transition of spherical micelles to WLMs. This is accompanied by a substantial increase in the viscosity of the CTAB/PBA system. Notably, the addition of Glc to the CTAB/PBA system induces the transformation of the WLMs into spherical micelles or short rod-like micelles. In this review, we describe diol-responsive micellar systems based on PBA and their rheological properties.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disease with an alarming global prevalence, is associated with several serious health threats, including cardiovascular diseases. Current diabetes treatments have several limitations and disadvantages, creating the need for new effective formulations to combat this disease and its associated complications. This motivated the development of therapeutic strategies to overcome some of these limitations, such as low therapeutic drug bioavailability or poor compliance of patients with current therapeutic methodologies. Taking advantage of silica nanoparticle characteristics such as tuneable particle and pore size, surface chemistry and biocompatibility, silica-based nanocarriers have been developed with the potential to treat diabetes and regulate blood glucose concentration. This review discusses the main topics in the field, such as oral administration of insulin, glucose-responsive devices and innovative administration routes.

Abstract
Monitoring glucose levels is important not only for diabetics, but also for tracking embryonic development in human embryo culture media. In this study, an optochemical sensor (glucose-selective polymer membrane) was fabricated for the determination of glucose in serum from diabetic patients and the culture media of human embryos. The optode membranes were formulated using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as the polymer matrix and 4',5'-dibromofluorescein octadecyl ester (ETH 7075) as the chromoionophore. The sensitivity of the optode membranes was optimized using two different plasticizers (tricresyl phosphate-TCP and nitrophenyloctyl ether-NOPE) and three ionophores (nitrophenylboronic acid-NPBA, trifluorophenyboronic acid-TFPBA, 4'-nitrobenzo-15-crown-5) and tested for glucose detection. The best optode membrane was formulated from 49.5% PVC, 49.5% TCP, 1% NPBA, and 1% ETH 7075. It showed a linear dynamic range of 10-3 M to 10-1 M, with a detection limit of 9 × 10-4 M and a response time of 2 min. The detection mechanism involves H-bonding between NPBA and glucose, which was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The reaction also involves the formation of boronate esters in basic media with deprotonation of the chromoionophore (ETH 7075), leading to a decrease in UV-Vis absorbance at λmax = 530 nm. The membrane optode was used for glucose determination in synthetic culture medium, commercial embryo culture medium (GLOBAL® TOTAL® W/HEPES), and serum from normal and diabetic patients, showing good accuracy and precision of the optode.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The bacterial derived flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FADGDH) is the most promising enzyme for the third-generation principle-based enzyme sensor for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Due to the ability of the enzyme to transfer electrons directly to the electrode, recognized as direct electron transfer (DET)-type FADGDH, although no investigation has been reported about DET-type FADGDH employed on a miniaturized integrated electrode. METHODS The miniaturized integrated electrode was formed by sputtering gold (Au) onto a flexible film with 0.1 mm in thickness and divided into 3 parts. After an insulation layer was laminated, 3 openings for a working electrode, a counter electrode and a reference electrode were formed by dry etching. A reagent mix containing 1.2 × 10-4 Unit of DET-type FADGDH and carbon particles was deposited. The long-term stability of sensor was evaluated by continuous operation, and its performance was also evaluated in the presence of acetaminophen and the change in oxygen partial pressure (pO2) level. RESULTS The amperometric response of the sensor showed a linear response to glucose concentration up to 500 mg/dL without significant change of the response over an 11-day continuous measurement. Moreover, the effect of acetaminophen and pO2 on the response were negligible. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate the superb potential of the DET-type FADGDH-based sensor with the combination of a miniaturized integrated electrode. Thus, the described miniaturized DET-type glucose sensor for CGM will be a promising tool for effective glycemic control. This will be further investigated using an in vivo study.

Abstract
The engineering strategy of artificial biointerfaces is vital for governing their performances in bioanalysis and diagnosis. Highly ordered arrangement of affinity ligands on the interface surface facilitates efficient interaction with target molecules, whereas biointerfaces aimed at drug delivery or rare cell isolation require sophisticated stimuli-response mechanisms. However, it is still challenging to facilely fabricate biointerfaces possessing the two features. Herein, we endow a biointerface with both reversibility and capability to orderly assemble affinity ligands by introducing boronic acid moieties alone. By boronate conjugation via glycosylation sites, avidin was well arranged at the surface of boronic acid-decorated carbon nitride nanosheets for the assembly of biotinylated aptamers. The ordered orientation of aptamers largely relieved their inactivation caused by inter-strand entanglement, facilitating significant increase in cell affinity for the isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs). The reversible boronate conjugation also facilitated mild release of CTCs by acid fructose with high cell viability. This engineered interface was capable of isolating CTCs from the peripheral blood of tumor-bearing mice and cancer patients. The successful utilization of the isolated CTCs in the downstream drug susceptibility test and mutation analysis demonstrated the clinical potential of this biointerface for the early diagnosis of cancers and precision medicine.

Abstract
Dynamic-covalent motifs are increasingly used for hydrogel crosslinking, leveraging equilibrium-governed reversible bonds to prepare viscoelastic materials with dynamic properties and self-healing character. The bonding between aryl boronates and diols is one dynamic-covalent chemistry of interest. The extent of network crosslinking using this motif may be subject to competition from ambient diols such as glucose; this approach has long been explored for glucose-directed release of insulin to control diabetes. However, the majority of such work has used phenylboronic acids (PBAs) that suffer from low-affinity glucose binding, limiting material responsiveness. Moreover, many PBA chemistries also bind with higher affinity to certain non-glucose analytes like fructose and lactate than they do to glucose, limiting their specificity of sensing and therapeutic deployment. Here, dynamic-covalent hydrogels are prepared that, for the first time, use a new diboronate motif with enhanced glucose binding-and importantly improved glucose specificity-leveraging the ability of rigid diboronates to simultaneously bind two sites on a single glucose molecule. Compared to long-used PBA-based approaches, diboronate hydrogels offer more glucose-responsive insulin release that is minimally impacted by non-glucose analytes. Improved responsiveness translates to more rapid blood glucose correction in a rodent diabetes model. Accordingly, this new dynamic-covalent crosslinking chemistry is useful in realizing more sensitive and specific glucose-responsive materials.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic glucose oxidation is crucial to the development of non-enzymatic sensors, an attractive alternative for enzymatic biosensors. However, due to OH- consumption during the catalytic process, non-enzymatic detection generally requires electrolytes having an alkaline pH value, limiting its practical application since biofluids are neutral. Herein, via interfacial microenvironment design, we addressed this limitation by developing a non-enzymatic sensor with an air-solid-liquid triphase interface electrodes that synergistically integrates the functions of local alkalinity generation and electrocatalytic glucose oxidation. A sufficiently high local pH value was achieved via oxygen reduction reaction at the triphase interface, which consequently enabled the electrochemical oxidation (detection) of glucose in neutral solution. Moreover, we found that the linear detection range and sensitivity of triphase non-enzymatic sensor can be tuned by changing the electrocatalysts of the detection electrode. The triphase electrode architecture provides a new platform for further exploration and promotes practical application of non-enzymatic sensors.

Suzuki Y, Hashimoto T, Hayashita T. Ratiometric fluorescence sensing of d-allulose using an inclusion complex of γ-cyclodextrin with a benzoxaborole-based probe. RSC Adv 2022; 12:12145-12151. [PMID: 35481078 PMCID: PMC9021936 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra00749e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Because d-allulose has been attracting attention as a zero-calorie sugar, the selective sensing of d-allulose is desired to investigate its health benefits. We report herein a novel fluorescence chemosensor that is based on an inclusion complex of γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CyD) with a benzoxaborole-based probe. Two inclusion complexes, 1/γCyD and 2/γCyD, were prepared by mixing γ-CyD with their corresponding probes in a water-rich solvent, where γ-CyD encapsulates two molecules of the probes inside its cavity to form a pyrene dimer. Both 1/γCyD and 2/γCyD exhibit monomeric and dimeric fluorescence from the pyrene moieties. By the reaction of 1/γCyD with saccharides, the intensities of monomeric and dimeric fluorescence remained unchanged and decreased, respectively. We have demonstrated that 1/γCyD has much higher affinity for d-allulose than for the other saccharides (d-fructose, d-glucose, and d-galactose). The conditional equilibrium constants for the reaction systems were determined to be 498 ± 35 M-1 for d-fructose, 48.4 ± 25.3 M-1 for d-glucose, 15.0 ± 3.3 M-1 for d-galactose, and (8.05 ± 0.59) × 103 M-1 for d-allulose. These features of 1/γCyD enable ratiometric fluorescence sensing with high sensitivity and selectivity for d-allulose. The limits of detection and quantification of 1/γCyD for d-allulose at pH 8.0 were determined to be 6.9 and 21 μM, respectively. Induced circular dichroism spectral study has shown that the reaction of 1/γCyD with d-allulose causes the monomerisation of the dimer of probe 1 that is encapsulated by γ-CyD, which leads to the diminishment of the dimeric fluorescence.

Abstract
Triphenyl phosphate (TPhP) is a broad-spectrum organophosphate compound widely used as an additive in several products to prevent ignition. However, its utilization produces a hazardous impact on various organisms. So far, very few studies have investigated the acute toxicity of TPhP at environmentally relevant concentrations in nontarget aquatic species. This study aimed to assess whether the short-term exposure of TPhP (4, 20, and 100 μg L-1) affects the oxidative stress, antioxidant activity, biomolecule metabolism, DNA stability, chromosomal integrity, apoptosis, and pathological changes in various organs of Labeo rohita fingerlings. The results illustrated that the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and lipid peroxidation (LPO) rates were significantly higher in tissues (brain, liver, and kidney) of TPhP-treated groups. Interestingly, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities were remarkably decreased in tissues following TPhP exposure. The levels of protein, glucose, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in various tissues were also found to be significantly altered in TPhP-exposed fish fingerlings. These significant alterations in the antioxidant system and biochemical profile induced genotoxic responses such as DNA and chromosomal damage in the fish fingerlings. Furthermore, the incidence of the observed genotoxic responses was also found to be dose-dependent. Likewise, the apoptotic responses were also significantly altered following TPhP acute exposure in L. rohita fingerlings. The subsequent effects on oxidative stress, antioxidant inhibition, dysregulated biomolecule metabolism, and genotoxicity might be the possible reason for the observed pathological changes in various tissues of L. rohita. Taken together, the present findings showed that the toxicity of TPhP is principally associated with exposure concentrations. Therefore, this study illustrates the toxicity risks of TPhP to vertebrate organisms at real-world concentrations.

Abstract
Accurate monitoring of sugar levels is essential for many fields from food industry to human health. Here, we developed FRET-based dual chromophore sensors for saccharides that form oxazolidine boronate and may be employed as a noninvasive method for monitoring of sugar levels in biological fluids, namely, urine. The saccharide-binding properties of the sensors were studied using fluorescence spectroscopy and utilized in the determination of saccharides in a high-throughput manner. Here, two fluorescent sensors were successful in the classification of nine different monosaccharides and disaccharides with 100% correct classification. Furthermore, the dual chromophore self-assembled sensors were successfully utilized for the quantitative determination of important carbohydrates such as glucose in the presence of competitive saccharides (fructose) and in complex media (urine) without sample pretreatment. The present fluorescent sensors allow for quantification of glucose in a concentration range of 0-60 mM, which matches the concentration range of frequently used urinalysis test strips.

Abstract
p-Boronophenylmethoxycarbonyl (BPmoc) is a protecting group for amines that is removable by treatment with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). We prepared BPmoc-modified insulin (BPmoc-Ins) and subcutaneously injected the formulation into diabetic rats. The results demonstrated that BPmoc effectively sealed the blood glucose (Glc)-lowering effects of Ins. Conversely, coinjection of BPmoc-Ins and Glc oxidase (GOx) resulted in reduced blood Glc levels, indicating that Ins was generated from BPmoc-Ins through the following reactions: oxidation of endogenous Glc by GOx; production of H2O2 accompanied by Glc oxidation; removal of BPmoc residues by H2O2. These results show the potential of BPmoc-Ins for a Glc-responsive Ins release system.
