Abstract
Ratiometric fluorescent assays have a built-in correction factor which enhances assay accuracy and reliability. We have developed fluorescent ratiometric supramolecular tandem assays for phosphatase and phytase enzymes using a mixture of three molecular components. One of the molecules is a tetra-cationic fluorescence quencher called CalixPyr which can bind and quench the polyanionic pyrene fluorophore, CMP, that emits at 430 nm. Polyphosphates can disrupt the CMP/CalixPyr complex and alter the fluorescence intensity (responsive signal). CalixPyr has no effect on the fluorescence emission of cationic pentamethine cyanine fluorophore, cCy5, which emits at 665 nm and acts as a non-responsive reference signal. The continuous ratiometric fluorescent assay for alkaline phosphatase monitored hydrolytic consumption of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The continuous ratiometric fluorescent assay for phytase activity monitored hydrolytic consumption of phytate. With further development this latter assay may be useful for high throughput assessment of phytase activity in individual batches of fortified animal feed. It is likely that the three-molecule mixture (CMP, CalixPyr, cCy5) can become a general assay platform for other enzymes that catalyse addition/removal of phosphate groups from appropriate molecular substrates.

Abstract
Protein kinases are involved in almost all biological activities. The activities of different kinases reflect the normal or abnormal status of the human body. Therefore, detecting the activities of different kinases is important for disease diagnosis and drug discovery. Fluorescent probes offer opportunities for studying kinase behaviors at different times and spatial locations. In this review, we summarize different kinds of fluorescent chemosensors that have been used to detect the activities of many different kinases.

Abstract
AzuFluor® 435-DPA-Zn, an azulene fluorophore bearing two zinc(II)-dipicolylamine receptor motifs, exhibits fluorescence enhancement in the presence of adenosine diphosphate. Selectivity for ADP over ATP, AMP and PPi results from appropriate positioning of the receptor motifs, since an isomeric sensor cannot discriminate between ADP and ATP.
