Abstract
Glutathione (GSH), an abundant non-protein thiol, plays a crucial role in numerous biotic processes. Herein, a mitochondria-targeted near-infrared GSH probe (JGP) was synthesized, which displayed desired properties with high specificity and sensitivity, appreciable water solubility, and rapid response time. In the presence of GSH, nearly a 13-fold fluorescence emission growth appeared at 730 nm and the solvent color changed from blue to cyan. The sensing mechanism of JGP and GSH was confirmed by a high-resolution mass spectroscopy analysis. Moreover, good cell penetration enabled JGP to be successfully used for imaging biological samples such as HeLa cells, C. elegans, and especially rat brain slices. Imaging experiments showed that JGP could monitor the GSH concentration changes with a dose-dependent direct ratio in all the tested samples. The successful application of JGP in brain imaging indicates that JGP is a suitable GSH optical probe, which may have wide application value in fields of brain imaging. It also lays a theoretical and practical foundation for the further application of fluorescent probes in brain sciences.

Abstract
H2S is a gaseous signaling molecule that is involved in many physiological and pathological processes. In general, the level of intracellular H2S (<1 μM) is much lower than that of GSH (∼1-10 mM), leading to the remaining challenge of selective detection and differentiation of endogenous H2S in live biosystems. To this end, we quantitatively demonstrate that the thiolysis of NBD amine has much higher selectivity for H2S over GSH than that of the reduction of aryl azide. Subsequently, we developed the first NBD-based cell-trappable probe 1 (AM-BODIPY-NBD) for highly selective and ultrasensitive imaging of intracellular H2S. Probe 1 demonstrates a 207-fold fluorescence enhancement at 520 nm after reaction with H2S/esterase to produce a bright BODIPY (quantum yield 0.42) and a detection limit of 15.7 nM. Probe 1 is water-soluble, cell-trappable, and not cytotoxic. Based on this excellent chemical tool, relative levels of basal H2S in different cell lines were measured to reveal a positive correlation between endogenous H2S and the metastatic potential of colon and breast cancer cells. In addition, H2S biogenesis in vivo was also validated by probe 1 both in tobacco leaves under viral infection and in zebrafish after tail amputation. It is anticipated that probe 1 will have widespread applications in imaging and for investigating different H2S-related biological processes and diseases.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is the most abundant non-protein thiol in biofluids, enabling diverse physiological functions. Among the proposed methods for GSH detection, ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) has the advantages of high sensitivity and efficiency. In this study, a novel analytical method was developed for the determination of GSH using supramolecular solvent (SUPRAS)-based dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) and UHPLC–HRMS. N-Laurylmaleimide was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran, which served three functions: 1) precipitate the proteins present in the biofluid sample, 2) provide a reaction environment for derivatization, and 3) enable the use of SUPRAS as the dispersing agent. Critical parameters were optimized based on single factor testing and response surface methodology. The established method was validated in terms of linearity, accuracy, precision, and successful quantitative analysis of GSH in saliva, urine, and plasma samples. Experimental results showed that SUPRAS as an extraction solvent was particularly suitable for the extraction of GSH from complex matrices. The current study provides a useful tool for accurate measurements of GSH concentrations, which could potentially be used for clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Cysteine (Cys), the only amino acid in the 20 natural amino acids that contains a reduced sulfhydryl group, plays important roles in the balance of redox homeostasis in biological systems. Lysosome is an important organelle containing a variety of hydrolases and has been proved to be the decomposition center of a variety of exogenous and endogenous macromolecular substances. In this research, a coumarin-based fluorescent probe MCA for the detection of Cys in lysosomes of living cells was developed. Due to the acrylate moiety, this probe exhibited high sensitivity (detection limit = 6.8 nM) and selectivity towards Cys superior to other analytes. Moreover, the probe was proved to be lysosome-targetable and showed good cell imaging ability and low cell toxicity.

Abstract
Monitoring of cysteine (Cys) is of significant importance for studying Cys-involved biological functions and clinically diagnosing Cys-related diseases. Recently, few fluorescent probes with two different reacting sites were reported to be capable of sensing different concentration ranges of Cys with distinct fluorescence signals, particularly suiting for bioimaging. However, due to relative sophisticated synthesis and moderate selectivity, the applications of these probes were still severely restricted. In this work, we proposed a novel probe design strategy by utilizing two same reacting groups, instead of two different reacting groups, to simplify the synthesis route and minimize the interference from competing species. Same reacting groups in a probe with different steric hindrances could exhibit different reactivities to Cys. This probe showed distinguishable fluorescence peak wavelengths towards low and high concentration ranges of Cys, giving green and blue emissions, respectively. Moreover, this probe was successfully applied for monitoring of Cys concentration in living cells. We believe this work provided a simpler strategy for dual-site fluorescent probes to sense difference concentration ranges of Cys, which may inspire more probe design in future.

Abstract
N-Methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) is an excitotoxic amino acid used to identify a specific subset of glutamate receptors. The activity of NMDA receptors is closely related to the redox level of the biological system. Glutathione (GSH) as an antioxidant plays a key role with regard to modulation of the redox environment. In this work we designed and developed a GSH-specific fluorescent probe with the capability of targeting NMDA receptors, which was composed of a two-photon naphthalimide fluorophore, a GSH-reactive group sulfonamide, and an ifenprodil targeting group for the NMDA receptor. This probe exhibited high selectivity toward GSH in comparison to other similar amino acids. Two-photon fluorescence microscopy allowed this probe to successfully monitor GSH in neuronal cells and hippocampal tissues with an excitation at 750 nm. It could serve as a potential practical imaging tool to explore the function of GSH and related biological processes in the brain.

Abstract
The homeostasis and imbalance of glutathione (GSH), an important antioxidant in organisms, are one of the key signals that reflect the health of organisms. In this paper, a novel SERS sensing platform based on Ag film@Si that self-assembled using silver nanospheres was proposed, which was used for the highly sensitive and selective detection of GSH. With the aid of an oil/water/oil three-phase system, the nano-silver film was self-assembled and finally deposited on silicon wafers. The heterobifunctional crosslinking agent N-succinimidyl-3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP), which contains pyridine rings and disulfide bonds, was involved in the exchange reaction between the sulfhydryl groups and disulfide bonds. With the addition of GSH, the breakage of disulfide bonds was promoted, thereby enhancing the SERS signal of SPDP. GSH can be detected sensitively by detecting the changes in the SPDP signal. The detection limit of GSH is 10 nM, and the method is still highly stable when the external environment is serum or other more complex environments.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are chronic neurodegenerative diseases with high morbidity and mortality. Homocysteine (Hcy), cysteine (Cys), and glutathione (GSH) are closely related to AD and PD. However, the dynamics of Hcy, Cys, and GSH in the brain tissues and the potential pathogenesis between Cys/Hcy/GSH with AD and PD remain unclear. Herein, a novel fluorescent probe 1 with multiple binding sites was rationally designed and exploited for the direct quantification of serum total Hcy and Cys along with superior optical properties. Importantly, differentiation and simultaneity fluorescence imaging of Cys, Hcy, and GSH dynamics were achieved in living cells, tissues, and mouse models of AD and PD with this probe, providing direct evidences for the relationship between Hcy/Cys/GSH and AD/PD for the first time. In addition, pathogenesis studies demonstrated that elevated Hcy and Cys levels are closely related to imbalanced redox homeostasis, increased amyloid aggregates, and nerve cell cytotoxicity. These findings will greatly promote the understanding of the functions of Hcy/Cys/GSH in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, demonstrating clinical promise for the early diagnosis and prevention of AD and PD.

Abstract
Abnormal levels of glutathione, a cellular antioxidant, can lead to a variety of diseases. We have constructed a near-infrared ratiometric fluorescent probe to detect glutathione concentrations in biological samples. The probe consists of a coumarin donor, which is connected through a disulfide-tethered linker to a rhodamine acceptor. Under the excitation of the coumarin donor at 405 nm, the probe shows weak visible fluorescence of the coumarin donor at 470 nm and strong near-infrared fluorescence of the rhodamine acceptor at 652 nm due to efficient Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the donor to the acceptor. Glutathione breaks the disulfide bond through reduction, which results in a dramatic increase in coumarin fluorescence and a corresponding decrease in rhodamine fluorescence. The probe possesses excellent cell permeability, biocompatibility, and good ratiometric fluorescence responses to glutathione and cysteine with a self-calibration capability. The probe was utilized to ratiometrically visualize glutathione concentration alterations in HeLa cells and Drosophila melanogaster larvae.

Abstract
Thiols play vital and irreplaceable roles in the biological system. Abnormality of thiol levels has been linked with various diseases and biological disorders. Thiols are known to distribute unevenly and change dynamically in the biological system. Methods that can determine thiols' concentration and distribution in live cells are in high demand. In the last two decades, fluorescent probes have emerged as a powerful tool for achieving that goal for the simplicity, high sensitivity, and capability of visualizing the analytes in live cells in a non-invasive way. They also enable the determination of intracellular distribution and dynamitic movement of thiols in the intact native environments. This review focuses on some of the major strategies/mechanisms being used for detecting GSH, Cys/Hcy, and other thiols in live cells via fluorescent probes, and how they are applied at the cellular and subcellular levels. The sensing mechanisms (for GSH and Cys/Hcy) and bio-applications of the probes are illustrated followed by a summary of probes for selectively detecting cellular and subcellular thiols.

Abstract
The detection of small molecular biothiols (cysteine, homocysteine and glutathione) is of great importance, as they involve in a series of physiological and pathological processes and are associated with many diseases. To realize the real-time monitoring of a specific biothiol, a rapid and reversible probe is required. Therefore, three probes, namely, o-MNPy, m-MNPy and p-MNPy, with pyridine substituted α, β-unsaturated ketone as the recognition site, were reported here, and the reactivity of the recognition site was finely tuned by the connection mode of the pyridine unit. To single out the optimal one, the response performances of three probes toward each biothiol were systemically studied, taking the differences of the intracellular contents of three biothiols into account during the evaluation. Biothiols reacted with the probes through Michael addition, and results showed that the slight structural variations could affect the performances of the probes obviously. p-MNPy with the pyridine unit connected to the recognition site through the para-position of the nitrogen atom, revealed the best sensing ability among the three probes. It demonstrated rapid response, good selectivity and sensitivity, excellent pH adaptability to Cys and GSH, and displayed reversible detection toward GSH. Finally, p-MNPy was successfully applied to track the GSH fluctuations under the oxidative stress stimulated by H2O2 in living cells. A reversible fluorescent probe for GSH was obtained through structure modulation, by which the intracellular GSH fluctuation was imaged.![]()

Abstract
Food fermentation, antibiotics, and pollutant degradation are closely related to bacteria. Bacteria play an irreplaceable role in life. However, some bacteria seriously threaten human health and cause large-scale infectious diseases. Therefore, there is a pressing need to develop strategies to accurately monitor bacteria. Technology based on molecular probes and fluorescence imaging is noninvasive, results in little damage, and has high specificity and sensitivity, so it has been widely applied in the detection of bacteria. In this review, we summarize the recent progress in bacterial detection using fluorescence. In particular, we generalize the mechanisms commonly used to design organic fluorescent probes for detecting and imaging bacteria. Moreover, a perspective regarding fluorescent probes for bacterial detection is discussed.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) plays an important role in the biochemical defense system of the human body. Designing an exceptional probe to detect trace amounts of GSH is of great significance for studying the oxidative stress reaction and related diseases. In this study, a selective and sensitive orange-red emitting copper nanocluster(CuNC)-based fluorescent probe for the detection of GSH was devised in the matrix of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) using hydrazine hydrate (HYD) as the reducing agent and 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) as the stabilizer. A peaceable without external assistance method (room temperature reaction) was employed to synthesize fluorescent CuNCs with orange-red luminescence emission at 606 nm upon excitation at 377 nm. The fluorescence intensity of CuNCs was found to decrease or even quench by the addition of GSH, which indicated the stronger binding ability of -SH in GSH with the CuNCs losing the protection of PVP. Based on this principle, the present sensor system exhibits a good linear response towards GSH ranging from 0.10 to 40 μM, and the limit of detection was found to be 12.4 nM. Moreover, due to the excellent selectivity and high sensitivity of the GSH sensor, it might act as a potential probe for the detection of GSH in the lysosomal environment of tumor cells. Thus, this strategy has a promising application potential for the early identification and prevention of cancer with low toxicity and good stability.

Abstract
In this paper, a label-free fluorescent method for glutathione (GSH) detection based on a thioflavin T/G-quadruplex conformational switch is developed. The sensing assay is fabricated depending on the virtue of mercury ions to form a thymine–thymine mismatch, which collapses the distance between two ssDNA and directs the guanine-rich part to form an intra-strand asymmetric split G-quadruplex. The newly formed G-quadruplex efficiently reacts with thioflavin T and enhances the fluorescent intensity. In the presence of GSH, Hg2+ is absorbed, destroying the G-quadruplex formation with a significant decrease in fluorescence emission. The proposed fluorescent assay exhibits a linear range between 0.03–5 μM of GSH with a detection limit of 9.8 nM. Furthermore, the efficacy of this method is examined using human serum samples to detect GSH. Besides GSH, other amino acids are also investigated in standard samples, which display satisfactory sensitivity and selectivity. Above all, we develop a method with features including potentiality, facility, sensitivity, and selectivity for analyzing GSH for clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Due to the redox properties closely related to numerous physiological and pathological processes, biothiols, including cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy) and glutathione (GSH), have received considerable attention in biological science. On account of the important physiological roles of these biothiols, it is of profound significance to develop sensitive and selective detection of biothiols to understand their biological profiles. In this work, we reported an efficient fluorescent probe, PHPQ-SH, for detecting biothiols in vitro and vivo, based on the phenothiazine-HPQ skeleton, with DNBS (2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonate) as the response unit. Probe PHPQ-SH exhibited brilliant sensing performances toward thiols, including a large Stokes shift (138 nm), excellent sensitivity (for GSH, LOD = 18.3 nM), remarkable fluorescence enhancement (163-fold), low cytotoxicity, rapid response (8 min), and extraordinary selectivity. Finally, the probe PHPQ-SH illustrated herein was capable of responding and visualizing biothiols in MCF-7 cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
Abnormal levels of glutathione (GSH) and glutathione oxidized (GSSG) usually relates to some diseases, thus quantifying the amount of GSH or GSSG is of great significance. A label-free sensing assay based on the enzyme-mimicking property of Cytidine-Au nanoclusters (Cy-AuNCs) was demonstrated for colorimetric detection of GSH, GSSG and glutathione reductase (GR). Firstly, obvious blue color accompanied with an absorption peak at 652 nm was observed due to the high peroxidase-like activity of Cy-AuNCs toward 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). Then, in the presence of target, the mimetic activity of Cy-AuNCs could be strongly inhibited and used to achieve the visualization detection. The inhibition effect arose from the surface interaction between GSH and Cy-AuNCs. Linear relationships between absorbance response and concentration were obtained between 0 and 0.4 mM for GSH, 0-2.5 mM for GSSG and 0-0.2 U/mL for GR. The limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as low as 0.01 mM, 0.03 mM and 0.003 U/mL for GSH, GSSG and GR, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed method displayed rapid response, easy procedure and high selectivity.

Abstract
In this article, we designed and synthesized the thionated NpImidazole derivatives BS and NS, new heavy-atom-free photosensitizers, which efficiently generate a triplet excited state with high singlet oxygen quantum yield. The introduction of the C═S bond to the NpImidazole core is essential for increasing spin-orbit coupling (SOC). The fluorescence emission of BS and NS was quenched at standard ambient temperature, accompanied with the increase in the ISC process from the singlet states to triplet excited states via thionation. BS and NS showed negligible dark cytotoxicity against HeLa cells in working concentration. In contrast, BS and NS rapidly induced cell death under blue light irradiation both under normoxia and hypoxia conditions. Our current study demonstrates that the C═S group can play an important role in type I ROS generation of PSs, which are unprecedented in the previous reports. Finally, the photophysical changes were assigned to the oxidative desulfurization of the C═S group of BS and NS to the C═O group of the corresponding BO and NO via hypochlorite. The combined results demonstrated the dual function of BS and NS as a fluorescent imaging agent for ClO- and an anti-cancer therapeutic by PDT that showed the potential strategy for "one-for-all" and multifunctional agents.

Abstract
The sensing mechanism of a reported fluorescence probe for cysteine, homocysteine and glutathione (Yin et al., 2018) has been investigated by time-dependent density functional theory. Experimental absorption and emission spectra of the probe before and after thiol addition were reproduced well by theoretical calculations, which validated the rationality of the method. Optimized geometries showed that the probe molecule had distinctly different geometries in its ground and excited states. It corresponded to the photoisomerization process and explained the weak fluorescence of the probe molecule. Moreover, by the potential energy curve scan, photoisomerization was further confirmed to be a spontaneous process with a barrier that barely existed. Frontier orbital analysis indicated that this photoinduced isomerization of the probe molecule derived from the antibonding character for lowest unoccupied molecular orbital at its CC double bond. In contrast, probe-thiol complexes exhibited similar geometries in their ground and excited states, which was responsible for the strong fluorescence of the probe with thiols. Due to distinct excited-processes, the probe can be used to sense thiols by monitoring the fluorescent change.

Abstract
Reactive sulfur species (RSS) and reactive selenium species (RSeS) are important substances for the maintenance of physiological balance. Imbalance of RSS and RSeS is closely related to a series of human diseases, so it is considered to be an important biomarker in early diagnosis, treatment, and stage monitoring. Fast and accurate quantitative analysis of different RSS and RSeS in complex biological systems may promote the development of personalized diagnosis and treatment in the future. One way to explore the physiological function of various types of RSS and RSeS in vivo is to detect them at the molecular level, and one of the most effective methods for this is to use fluorescent probes. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions are commonly exploited as a detection mechanism for RSS and RSeS in fluorescent probes. In this review, we cover recent progress in fluorescent probes for RSS and RSeS based on SNAr reactions, and discuss their response mechanisms, properties, and applications. Benzenesulfonate, phenyl-O ether, phenyl-S ether, phenyl-Se ether, 7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD), benzoate, and selenium-nitrogen bonds are all good detection groups. Moreover, based on an integration of different reports, we propose the design and synthesis of RSS- and RSeS-selective probes based on SNAr reactions, current challenges, and future research directions, considering the selection of active sites, the effect of substituents on the benzene ring, and the introduction of other functional groups.

Abstract
Abnormal concentrations of biothiols such as cysteine, homocysteine and glutathione are associated with various major diseases. In biological systems, the structural similarity and functional distinction of these three small molecular thiols has not only required rigorous molecular design of the fluorescent probes used to detect each thiol specifically, but it has also inspired scientists to uncover the ambiguous biological relationships between these bio-thiols. In this minireview, we will discuss the evolution of small organic molecular fluorescent probes for the detection of thiols over the past 60 years, highlighting the potent methodologies used in the design of thiol probes and their particular applications in the semi-quantification of cellular thiols and real-time labelling. At the same time, the present challenges that limit their further application will be discussed. We hope that this minireview will promote future research to enable deeper insight into the crucial role of thiols in biological systems. The chronological evolution of small organic molecular fluorescent probes for thiols: from separation dependency analysis to cellular specific analysis, what's next?![]()

Abstract
In the last few decades, growing numbers of fluorescent probes have been developed to detect intracellular GSH. However, the majority of probes for GSH were irreversible without monitoring the changes of intracellular GSH concentration. Therefore, recently, fluorescent probes for monitoring concentrations of GSH in real-time in living cells have come into being to address this challenge. This Perspective aimed at the development of reversible probes for GSH was organized by structural features, chemical reactions, and physicochemical properties. The reversible probes designed by a coumarin skeleton as a read-out fluorophore and the Michael addition reaction as a response mechanism accounted for most of the reported reversible probes. The performances of reversible fluorescent probes based on Michael addition could be roughly predicted by fundamental laws of kinetics and thermodynamics in physical chemistry. Essentially, the design principles included a highly reactive site for GSH, a small thermodynamic driving force, a desirable Kd of 1-10 mM, and excellent cell membrane permeability. Prospectively, the development of various mechanisms and fluorophores will be effective measures to enrich the types of reversible probes for GSH.

Abstract
A new colorimetric and fluorescence probe NRSH based on Nile-red chromophore for the detection of biothiols has been developed, exhibiting high selectivity towards biothiols over other interfering species. NRSH shows a blue shift in absorption peak upon reacting with biothiols, from 587 nm to 567 nm, which induces an obvious color change from blue to pink and exhibits a 35-fold fluorescence enhancement at 645 nm in red emission range. NRSH displays rapid (<1 min) response for H2S, which is faster than other biothiols (>5 min). The detection limits of probe NRSH towards biothiols are very low (22.05 nM for H2S, 34.04 nM for Cys, 107.28 nM for GSH and 113.65 nM for Hcy). Furthermore, NRSH is low cytotoxic and can be successfully applied as a bioimaging tool for real-time monitoring biothiols in HeLa cells. In addition, fluorescence mechanism of probe NRSH is further understood by theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Discriminative detection of GSH is achieved by employing a highly sensitive and selective fluorescent probe (KL-DN) that bears β-carboline alkaloid as a potential fluorophore and an azide group as the recognition unit. A rapid fluorescence off-on change is caused by special redox reaction; KL-DN has the capability of monitoring endogenous GSH in wheat germ tissues, indicating that this probe holds great potential for biological applications in plant tissues.

Abstract
The selective detection of glutathione (GSH) in vitro and in vivo has attracted great attentions, credited to its important role in life activities and association with a series of diseases. Among all kinds of analytical techniques, the fluorescent probe for GSH detection become prevalent recently because of its ease of operation, high temporal-spatial resolution, visualization and noninvasiveness, etc. The special structural features of GSH, such as the nucleophilicity of sulfhydryl group, the concerted reaction ability of amino group, the negative charged nature, the latent hydrogen bonding ability along with its flexible molecular chain, are all potent factors to be employed to design the specific fluorescent probe for GSH and discriminate it from other bio-species including its analogues cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcy). This paper reviewed the studies in the last 3 years and was organized based on the reaction mechanism of each probe. According to the reactivity of GSH, various recognition mechanisms including Michael addition, nucleophilic aromatic substitution, ordinary nucleophilic substitution, multi-site reaction, and other unique reactions have been utilized to construct the GSH specific fluorescent probes, and the molecular design strategy, photophysical property, recognition mechanism, and bioimaging application of each reported probe were all discussed here systematically. Great progress has been made in this area, and we believe the analyses and summarization of these excellent studies would provide valuable message and inspiration to researchers to advance the research toward clinic applications.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH), an extremely important antioxidant, is a major participant in maintaining redox homeostasis and tightly associated with various clinical diseases. Thus, accurate and rapid detection of intracellular GSH is imperative to elucidate its role in physiological and pathological processes. Herein, by modifying 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazole (HBT) scaffold, we developed an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-based fluorescent probe BTFMD for tracking GSH, which exhibited good selectivity, excellent water solubility, a large Stokes shift (181 nm) and fast response rate (within 10 min). Furthermore, the probe was successfully applied for imaging of endogenous GSH in live cells and zebrafish, and probing into the role of GSH in the development of cancer and Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
A microfluidic paper-based analytical device integrating carbon dot (CDs) is fabricated and used for a fluorometric off-on assay of biothiols. Vinyl sulfone (VS) click immobilization of carbon dots (CDs) on paper was accomplished by a one-pot simplified protocol that uses divinyl sulfone (DVS) as a homobifunctional reagent. This reagent mediated both the click oxa-Michael addition to the hydroxyl groups of cellulose and ulterior covalent grafting of the resulting VS paper to NH2-functionalized CDs by means of click aza-Michael addition. The resulting cellulose nanocomposite was used to engineer an inexpensive and robust microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μPAD) that is used for a reaction-based off-on fluorometric assay of biothiols (GSH, Cys, and Hcy). The intrinsic blue fluorescence of CDs (with excitation/emission maxima at 365/450 nm) is turned off via the heavy atom effect of an introduced iodo group. Fluorescence is turned on again due to the displacement of iodine by reaction with a biothiol. The increase in fluorescence is related to the concentration over a wide range (1 to 200 μM for GSH and 5-200 μM for Cys and Hcy, respectively), and the assay exhibits a low detection limit (0.3 μM for GSH and Cys and 0.4 μM for Hcy). The method allows for rapid screening and can also be used in combination with a digital camera readout. Graphical abstract Schematic representation of a μPAD based on click immobilized carbon dots and used for a reaction-based fluorometric off-on assay of biothiols. The intrinsic blue fluorescence of carbon dots is turned off via the heavy atom effect of an introduced iodo group and turned on by the displacement of this atom by reaction with a biothiol.
