Abstract
Rapid and specific assaying of molecules that report on a pathophysiological condition, environmental pollution, or drug concentration is pivotal for establishing efficient and accurate diagnostic systems. One of the main components required for the construction of these systems is the recognition element (receptor) that can identify target analytes. Oligonucleotide switching structures, or aptamers, have been widely studied as selective receptors that can precisely identify targets in different analyzed matrices with minimal interference from other components in an antibody-like recognition process. These aptasensors, especially when integrated into sensing platforms, enable a multitude of sensors that can outperform antibody-based sensors in terms of flexibility of the sensing strategy and ease of deployment to areas with limited resources. Research into compounds that efficiently enhance signal transduction and provide a suitable platform for conjugating aptamers has gained huge momentum over the past decade. The multifaceted nature of conjugated polymers (CPs), notably their versatile electrical and optical properties, endows them with a broad range of potential applications in optical, electrical, and electrochemical signal transduction. Despite the substantial body of research demonstrating the enhanced performance of sensing devices using doped or nanostructure-embedded CPs, few reviews are available that specifically describe the use of conjugated polymers in aptasensing. The purpose of this review is to bridge this gap and provide a comprehensive description of a variety of CPs, from a historical viewpoint, underpinning their specific characteristics and demonstrating the advances in biosensors associated with the use of these conjugated polymers.

Abstract
We report a simple and readily available fluorescent probe for rapid, specific, and ratiometric fluorescent detection of the biologically important cysteine (Cys). This probe uses a visible-light excitable excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) dye (4'-dimethylamino-3-hydroxyflavone) as the fluorophore and an acrylate group as the ESIPT blocking agent as well as the recognition unit. Cleavage of the acrylate moiety can be achieved specifically and rapidly by Cys in aqueous solution under mild conditions, which leads to restore the ESIPT process and enables the probe to show a rapid, ratiometric fluorescent detection process for Cys with high selectivity over various analytes, including homocysteine (Hcy) and glutathione (GSH). The detection limit of this probe for Cys was found to be ∼0.2 μM and bioimaging of intracellular Cys by this probe was successfully applied in living cells, indicating that this probe holds great potential for biological applications.

Abstract
A novel, rapid and highly sensitive fluorescence turn-on assay for the detection of biothiols (glutathione, and L-cysteine), histidine and threonine was developed. Water-soluble CuInS2 ternary quantum dots (QDs) capped by mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) were directly synthesized in aqueous solution, and then functionalized using tyrosine molecules to form tyrosine-functionalized CuInS2 QDs (T-CuInS2 QDs). The fluorescence of T-CuInS2 QDs would decrease in the presence of Cu(2+) due to the coordination effect of phenolic hydroxyls of the tyrosine molecules. Subsequently, the addition of biothiols (glutathione and L-cysteine), histidine or threonine could turn on the fluorescence of the T-CuInS2 QDs-Cu(2+) system due to their strong affinity for Cu(2+). The proposed method was simple in design and fast in operation, and it was applied for the detection of glutathione, L-cysteine, histidine, and threonine in human serum samples with satisfactory results.
