Abstract
Multimodal imaging, which combines the strengths of two or more imaging modalities to provide complementary anatomical and molecular information, has emerged as a robust technology for enhancing diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy, as well as improving treatment monitoring. Moreover, the application of multimodal imaging in guiding precision tumor treatment can prevent under- or over-treatment, thereby maximizing the benefits for tumor patients. In recent years, several intriguing magneto-optical nanosystems with both magnetic and optical properties have been developed, leading to significant breakthroughs in the field of multimodal imaging and image-guided tumor therapy. These advancements pave the way for precise tumor medicine. This review summarizes various types of magneto-optical nanosystems developed recently and describes their applications as probes for multimodal imaging and agents for image-guided therapeutic interventions. Finally, future research and development prospects of magneto-optical nanosystems are discussed along with an outlook on their further applications in the biomedical field.

Abstract
So far, the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is spreading widely worldwide. The early diagnosis of infection by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is essential to provide timely treatment and prevent its further spread. Lateral flow assays (LFAs) have the advantages of rapid detection, simple operation, low cost, ease of mass production, and no need for special devices and professional operators, which make them suitable for self-testing at home. This review focuses on the early diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection based on optical LFAs including colorimetric, fluorescent (FL), chemiluminescent (CL), and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) LFAs for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigens and nucleic acids. The types of recognition components, detection modes used for antigen detection, labels employed in different optical LFAs, and strategies to improve the detection sensitivity of LFAs were reviewed. Meanwhile, LFAs coupled with different nucleic acid amplification techniques and CRISPR-Cas systems for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acids were summarized. We hope this review provides research mentalities for developing highly sensitive LFAs that can be used in home self-testing for the early diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Folic acid-mediated enhancement of the diagnostic potential of luminescent europium-doped hydroxyapatite nanocrystals for cancer biomaging. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2024; 239:113975. [PMID: 38762934 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.113975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Early and accurate cancer diagnosis is crucial for improving patient survival rates. Luminescent nanoparticles have emerged as a promising tool in fluorescence bioimaging for cancer diagnosis. To enhance diagnostic accuracy, ligands promoting endocytosis into cancer cells are commonly incorporated onto nanoparticle surfaces. Folic acid (FA) is one such ligand, known to specifically bind to folate receptors (FR) overexpressed in various cancer cells such as cervical and ovarian carcinoma. Therefore, surface modification of luminescent nanoparticles with FA can enhance both luminescence efficiency and diagnostic accuracy. In this study, luminescent europium-doped hydroxyapatite (EuHAp) nanocrystals were prepared via hydrothermal method and subsequently modified with (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) followed by FA to target FR-positive human cervical adenocarcinoma cell line (HeLa) cells. The sequential grafting of APTES and then FA formed a robust covalent linkage between the nanocrystals and FA. Rod-shaped FA-modified EuHAp nanocrystals, approximately 100 nm in size, exhibited emission peaks at 589, 615, and 650 nm upon excitation at 397 nm. Despite a reduction in photoluminescence intensity following FA modification, fluorescence microscopy revealed a remarkable 120-fold increase in intensity compared to unmodified EuHAp, attributed to the enhanced uptake of FA-modified EuHAp. Additionally, confocal microscope observations confirmed the specificity and the internalization of FA-modified EuHAp nanocrystals in HeLa cells. In conclusion, the modification of EuHAp nanocrystals with FA presents a promising strategy to enhance the diagnostic potential of cancer bioimaging probes.

Abstract
The scientific world is increasingly focusing on rare earth metal oxide nanomaterials due to their consequential biological prospects, navigated by breakthroughs in biomedical applications. Terbium belongs to rare earth elements (lanthanide series) and possesses remarkably strong luminescence at lower energy emission and signal transduction properties, ushering in wide applications for diagnostic measurements (i.e., bioimaging, biosensors, fluorescence imaging, etc.) in the biomedical sectors. In addition, the theranostic applications of terbium-based nanoparticles further permit the targeted delivery of drugs to the specific site of the disease. Furthermore, the antimicrobial properties of terbium nanoparticles induced via reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause oxidative damage to the cell membrane and nuclei of living organisms, ion release, and surface charge interaction, thus further creating or exhibiting excellent antioxidant characteristics. Moreover, the recent applications of terbium nanoparticles in tissue engineering, wound healing, anticancer activity, etc., due to angiogenesis, cell proliferation, promotion of growth factors, biocompatibility, cytotoxicity mitigation, and anti-inflammatory potentials, make this nanoparticle anticipate a future epoch of nanomaterials. Terbium nanoparticles stand as a game changer in the realm of biomedical research, proffering a wide array of possibilities, from revolutionary imaging techniques to advanced drug delivery systems. Their unique properties, including luminescence, magnetic characteristics, and biocompatibility, have redefined the boundaries of what can be achieved in biomedicine. This review primarily delves into various mechanisms involved in biomedical applications via terbium-based nanoparticles due to their physicochemical characteristics. This review article further explains the potential biomedical applications of terbium nanoparticles with in-depth significant mechanisms from the individual literature. This review additionally stands as the first instance to furnish a "single-platted" comprehensive acquaintance of terbium nanoparticles in shaping the future of healthcare as well as potential limitations and overcoming strategies that require exploration before being trialed in clinical settings.

Abstract
In light of deep tissue penetration and ultralow background, near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence (PersL) bioprobes have become powerful tools for bioapplications. However, the inhomogeneous signal attenuation may significantly limit its application for precise biosensing owing to tissue absorption and scattering. In this work, a PersL lifetime-based nanoplatform via deep learning was proposed for high-fidelity bioimaging and biosensing in vivo. The persistent luminescence imaging network (PLI-Net), which consisted of a 3D-deep convolutional neural network (3D-CNN) and the PersL imaging system, was logically constructed to accurately extract the lifetime feature from the profile of PersL intensity-based decay images. Significantly, the NIR PersL nanomaterials represented by Zn1+xGa2-2xSnxO4: 0.4 % Cr (ZGSO) were precisely adjusted over their lifetime, enabling the PersL lifetime-based imaging with high-contrast signals. Inspired by the adjustable and reliable PersL lifetime imaging of ZGSO NPs, a proof-of-concept PersL nanoplatform was further developed and showed exceptional analytical performance for hypochlorite detection via a luminescence resonance energy transfer process. Remarkably, on the merits of the dependable and anti-interference PersL lifetimes, this PersL lifetime-based nanoprobe provided highly sensitive and accurate imaging of both endogenous and exogenous hypochlorite. This breakthrough opened up a new way for the development of high-fidelity biosensing in complex matrix systems.

Abstract
Due to their unique afterglow ability, long-wavelength-light rechargeable persistent luminescence (PersL) nanoparticles (PLNPs) have been emerging as an important category of imaging probes. Among them, ZnGa2O4:0.6% Cr3+ (ZGC) PLNPs have gained widespread recognition due to the ease of synthesis and uniform morphology. Unfortunately, the limited absorption arising from the low molar extinction coefficient of Cr3+ results in relatively low afterglow intensity and rapid decay after long-wavelength LED light irradiation. Herein, we discovered a strategy that boosting dye-sensitization performance was able to effectively amplify the PersL signal under white LED light. Specifically, Dil served as a highly efficient sensitizer for Cr3+, promoting the absorption of the excitation light. By adjusting the Pr dopant concentrations, ZGCP0.5 PLNPs with optimal trap densities were obtained, which showed the highest PersL intensity and dye-sensitized performance. Strikingly, ZGCP0.5-Dil PLNPs exhibited a 24.3-fold enhancement in intensity and a 2-fold prolongation of decay time over bare ZGC PLNPs through the synergy effect of optimal electron traps and dye sensitization. Photostable ZGCP0.5-Dil PLNPs enabled imaging of the HepG2 tumor and effectively guided tumor surgical resection verified by the H&E staining analysis. This strategy could be a significant reference in other dye-sensitization PLNPs to enhance longer-wavelength rechargeable PersL.

Abstract
The conventional lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) method using colloidal gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as labeling agents faces two inherent limitations, including restricted sensitivity and poor quantitative capability, which impede early viral infection detection. Herein, we designed and synthesized CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dot-based composite nanoparticles, CsPbBr3@SiO2@Fe3O4 (CSF), which integrated fluorescence detection and magnetic enrichment properties into LFIA technology and achieved rapid, sensitive, and convenient quantitative detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus N protein. In this study, CsPbBr3 served as a high-quantum-yield fluorescent signaling probe, while SiO2 significantly enhanced the stability and biomodifiability of CsPbBr3. Importantly, the SiO2 shell shows relatively low absorption or scattering toward fluorescence, maintaining a quantum yield of up to 74.4% in CsPbBr3@SiO2. Assembly of Fe3O4 nanoparticles mediated by PEI further enhanced the method's sensitivity and reduced matrix interference through magnetic enrichment. Consequently, the method achieved a fluorescent detection range of 1 × 102 to 5 × 106 pg·mL-1 after magnetic enrichment, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 58.8 pg·mL-1, representing a 13.3-fold improvement compared to nonenriched samples (7.58 × 102 pg·mL-1) and a 2-orders-of-magnitude improvement over commercial colloidal gold kits. Furthermore, the method exhibited 80% positive and 100% negative detection rates in clinical samples. This approach holds promise for on-site diagnosis, home-based quantitative tests, and disease procession evaluation.

Abstract
Intracellular delivery of nano-drug-carriers (NDC) to specific cells, diseased regions, or solid tumors has entered the era of precision medicine that requires systematic knowledge of nano-biological interactions from multidisciplinary perspectives. To this end, this review first provides an overview of membrane-disruption methods such as electroporation, sonoporation, photoporation, microfluidic delivery, and microinjection with the merits of high-throughput and enhanced efficiency for in vitro NDC delivery. The impact of NDC characteristics including particle size, shape, charge, hydrophobicity, and elasticity on cellular uptake are elaborated and several types of NDC systems aiming for hierarchical targeting and delivery in vivo are reviewed. Emerging in vitro or ex vivo human/animal-derived pathophysiological models are further explored and highly recommended for use in NDC studies since they might mimic in vivo delivery features and fill the translational gaps from animals to humans. The exploration of modern microscopy techniques for precise nanoparticle (NP) tracking at the cellular, organ, and organismal levels informs the tailored development of NDCs for in vivo application and clinical translation. Overall, the review integrates the latest insights into smart nanosystem engineering, physiological models, imaging-based validation tools, all directed towards enhancing the precise and efficient intracellular delivery of NDCs.

Abstract
Preparation from the aqueous alkoxide route of doped and co-doped lithium niobate nanocrystals with Er3+ and Yb3+ ions, and detailed investigations of their optical properties are presented in this comprehensive work. Simultaneous emission under femtosecond laser excitation of second harmonic generation (SHG) and up-conversion photoluminescence (UC-PL) is studied from colloidal suspensions according to the lanthanide ion contents. Special attention has been paid to produce phase pure nanocrystals of constant size (∼20 nm) thus allowing a straightforward comparison and optimization of the Er content for increasing the green UC-PL signals under 800 nm excitation. An optimal molar concentration at about 4 molar% in erbium ions is demonstrated, that is well above the concentration usually achieved in bulk crystals. Similarly, for co-doped LiNbO3 nanocrystals, different lanthanide concentrations and Yb/Er content ratios are tested allowing optimization of the green and red up-conversion excited at 980 nm, and analysis of the underlying mechanisms from excitation spectra. All together, these findings provide valuable insights into the wet-chemical synthesis and potential of doped and co-doped LiNbO3 nanocrystals for advanced applications, combining both SHG and UC-PL emissions from the particle core.

Abstract
Designing lanthanide luminescence lifetime sensors in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window holds great potentials for physiological studies. However, the single lifetime signal is confined to one or two orders of magnitude of signal variation, which limits the sensitivity of lifetime probes. In this study, a lifetime cascade system, i.e., ZGO:Mn, Eu-DNA-1/TCPP-PEI70K @Yb-AptEpCAM , with a variety of signals (τm , τn , τµ , τm /τn and τm /τµ ) is constructed for exosome identification using time-domain multiplexing. The sensitized ligand TCPP acts as both target-modulated switch and a bridge for connecting long lifetime ZGO:Mn, Eu-DNA-1 emitter to lanthanide Yb3+ . This drives successive dual-path energy transfer and forms two D(donor) -A(acceptor) pairs. The lifetime variation is dominantly modulated by arranging TCPP as energy intermediate relay to covert milliseconds to nanoseconds to microseconds. It enables a broad lifetime range of six orders of magnitude. The presence of exosome specifically recognizes aptamers on TCPP-PEI70K @Yb-AptEpCAM to impede D-A pairs and reverse multiplexed response signals of the lifetime cascade system. The ratio lifetime signals τm /τn and τm /τµ achieve prominent exosome quantification and exosome type differentiation attributed to signal amplification. The cascade system relying on lifetime criteria can realize precise quantization and provide an effective strategy for subsequent physiological study.

Abstract
LnCl3(THF)3 (Ln = Y, La ÷ Nd, Sm ÷ Lu) readily react with the tridentate 1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane (Me3tach) ligand to form mono- or binuclear lanthanide trichloride complexes, depending on the stoichiometry of the reaction and the ionic radius of the metal: mononuclear pseudosandwich [LnCl3(Me3tach)2], (Ln = Y, La ÷ Ho) or binuclear complexes [Ln2Cl6(Me3tach)3], or [LnCl3(Me3tach)(THF)]2 (Ln = Sm, Tb). Detailed analysis of the NMR data of [LnCl3(Me3tach)2] complexes with paramagnetic lanthanide ions showed that their structures remained unchanged in the toluene solution. A series of isomorphous complexes [LnCl3(Me3tach)(Py)2] (Ln = La, Sm, Tb, Er, Lu; Py = pyridine) have been obtained by the recrystallization of either mononuclear or binuclear complexes from pyridine. Complexes of terbium and europium ions with the Me3tach ligand exhibit relatively high quantum yields of metal-centered luminescence (0.39 and 0.32, respectively).

Abstract
Rapid diagnosis and treatment of infectious illnesses are crucial for clinical outcomes and public health. Biosensing developments enhance diagnostics at the point of care. This is superior to traditional procedures, which need centralized lab facilities, specialized personnel, and large equipment. The emerging coronavirus epidemic threatens global health and economic security. Increasing viral surveillance and regulatory actions against disease transmission necessitate rapid, sensitive testing tools for viruses. Due to their sensitivity and specificity, biosensors offer a possible reliable and quantifiable viral detection method. Current advances in genetic engineering, such as genetic alteration and material engineering, have provided several opportunities to enhance biosensors' sensitivity, selectivity, and recognition efficiency. This chapter explains biosensing techniques, biosensor varieties, and signal amplification technologies. Challenges and potential developments for viral microorganisms based on biosensors and signal amplification were also investigated.

Abstract
Dye-sensitization can enhance lanthanide-based upconversion luminescence, but is hindered by interfacial energy transfer from organic dye to lanthanide ion Yb3+ . To overcome these limitations, modifying coordination sites on dye conjugated structures and minimizing the distance between fluorescence cores and Yb3+ in upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) are proposed. The specially designed near-infrared (NIR) dye, disulfo-indocyanine green (disulfo-ICG), acts as the antenna molecule and exhibits a 2413-fold increase in luminescence under 808 nm excitation compared to UCNPs alone using 980 nm irradiation. The significant improvement is attributed to the high energy transfer efficiency of 72.1% from disulfo-ICG to Yb3+ in UCNPs, with majority of energy originating from triplet state (T1 ) of disulfo-ICG. Shortening the distance between the dye and lanthanide ions increases the probability of energy transfer and strengthens the heavy atom effect, leading to enhanced T1 generation and improved dye-triplet sensitization upconversion. Importantly, this approach also applies to 730 nm excitation Cy7-SO3 sensitization system, overcoming the spectral mismatch between Cy7 and Yb3+ and achieving a 52-fold enhancement in luminescence. Furthermore, the enhancement of upconversion at single particle level through dye-sensitization is demonstrated. This strategy expands the range of NIR dyes for sensitization and opens new avenues for highly efficient dye-sensitized upconversion systems.

Abstract
The photoluminescence (PL) of lanthanide-doped nanocrystals can be quenched by energy transfer to vibrations of molecules located within a few nanometers from the dopants. Such short-range electronic-to-vibrational energy transfer (EVET) is often undesired as it reduces the photoluminescence efficiency. On the other hand, EVET may be exploited to extract information about molecular vibrations in the local environment of the nanocrystals. Here, we investigate the influence of solvent and gas environments on the PL properties of NaYF4:Er3+,Yb3+ upconversion nanocrystals. We relate changes in the PL spectrum and excited-state lifetimes in different solvents and their deuterated analogues to quenching of specific lanthanide levels by EVET to molecular vibrations. Similar but weaker changes are induced when we expose a film of nanocrystals to a gas environment with different amounts of H2O or D2O vapor. Quenching of green- and red-emitting levels of Er3+ can be explained in terms of EVET-mediated quenching that involves molecular vibrations with energies resonant with the gap between the energy levels of the lanthanide. Quenching of the near-infrared-emitting level is more complex and may involve EVET to combination-vibrations or defect-mediated quenching. EVET-mediated quenching holds promise as a mechanism to probe the local chemical environment-both for nanocrystals dispersed in a liquid and for nanocrystals exposed to gaseous molecules that adsorb onto the nanocrystal surface.

Abstract
Rare-earth doped nanoparticles (RENPs) are attracting increasing interest in materials science due to their optical, magnetic, and chemical properties. RENPs can emit and absorb radiation in the second biological window (NIR-II, 1000-1400 nm) making them ideal optical probes for photoluminescence (PL) in vivo imaging. Their narrow emission bands and long PL lifetimes enable autofluorescence-free multiplexed imaging. Furthermore, the strong temperature dependence of the PL properties of some of these RENPs makes remote thermal imaging possible. This is the case of neodymium and ytterbium co-doped NPs that have been used as thermal reporters for in vivo diagnosis of, for instance, inflammatory processes. However, the lack of knowledge about how the chemical composition and architecture of these NPs influence their thermal sensitivity impedes further optimization. To shed light on this, we have systematically studied their emission intensity, PL decay time curves, absolute PL quantum yield, and thermal sensitivity as a function of the core chemical composition and size, active-shell, and outer-inert-shell thicknesses. The results revealed the crucial contribution of each of these factors in optimizing the NP thermal sensitivity. An optimal active shell thickness of around 2 nm and an outer inert shell of 3.5 nm maximize the PL lifetime and the thermal response of the NPs due to the competition between the temperature-dependent back energy transfer, the surface quenching effects, and the confinement of active ions in a thin layer. These findings pave the way for a rational design of RENPs with optimal thermal sensitivity.

Abstract
Luminescence thermometry with trivalent lanthanide ions is a promising avenue for contactless temperature probing. The area has been growing exponentially for the last two decades, and its viability has been successfully demonstrated in various research domains. However, moving from laboratory equipment to real-life applications remains a challenging task. One of the reasons is the possibility of a background luminescence from the probing device or probed environment. To tackle this issue, we elegantly incorporate a rarely explored thermometric approach called time-gated luminescence thermometry (TGLT). Furthermore, we demonstrate an enhanced relative sensitivity through this innovative approach and a path to move toward practical application.

Abstract
Highly luminescent nanospheres have been demonstrated in enhancing the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) due to their loading numerous luminescent dyes. However, the photoluminescence intensities of existing luminescent nanospheres are limited due to the aggregation-caused quenching effect. Herein, highly luminescent aggregation-induced emission luminogens embedded nanospheres (AIENPs) with red emission were introduced as signal amplification probes of LFIA for quantitative detection of zearalenone (ZEN). Optical properties of red-emitted AIENPs were compared with time-resolved dye-embedded nanoparticles (TRNPs). Results showed that red-emitted AIENPs have stronger photoluminescence intensity on the nitrocellulose membrane and superior environmental tolerance. Additionally, we benchmarked the performance of AIENP-LFIA against TRNP-LFIA using the same set of antibodies, materials, and strip readers. Results showed that AIENP-LFIA exhibits good dynamic linearity with the ZEN concentration from 0.195 to 6.25 ng/mL, with half competitive inhibitory concentration (IC50) and detection of limit (LOD) at 0.78 and 0.11 ng/mL, respectively. The IC50 and LOD are 2.07- and 2.36-fold lower than those of TRNP-LFIA. Encouragingly, the precision, accuracy, specificity, practicality, and reliability of this AIENP-LFIA for ZEN quantitation were further characterized. The results verified that the AIENP-LFIA has good practicability for the rapid, sensitive, specific, and accurate quantitative detection of ZEN in corn samples.

Abstract
Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) are some of the most promising nanomaterials for bioanalytical and biomedical applications. One important challenge to be still solved is how UCNPs can be optimally implemented into Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) biosensing and bioimaging for highly sensitive, wash-free, multiplexed, accurate, and precise quantitative analysis of biomolecules and biomolecular interactions. The many possible UCNP architectures composed of a core and multiple shells doped with different lanthanoid ions at different ratios, the interaction with FRET acceptors at different possible distances and orientations via biomolecular interaction, and the many and long-lasting energy transfer pathways from the initial UCNP excitation to the final FRET process and acceptor emission make the experimental determination of the ideal UCNP-FRET configuration for optimal analytical performance a real challenge. To overcome this issue, we have developed a fully analytical model that requires only a few experimental configurations to determine the ideal UCNP-FRET system within a few minutes. We verified our model via experiments using nine different Nd-, Yb-, and Er-doped core-shell-shell UCNP architectures within a prototypical DNA hybridization assay using Cy3.5 as an acceptor dye. Using the selected experimental input, the model determined the optimal UCNP out of all theoretically possible combinatorial configurations. An extreme economy of time, effort, and material was accompanied by a significant sensitivity increase, which demonstrated the powerful feat of combining a few selected experiments with sophisticated but rapid modeling to accomplish an ideal FRET biosensor.

Abstract
Photoluminescence (PL) imaging has become a fundamental tool in disease diagnosis, therapeutic evaluation, and surgical navigation applications. However, it remains a big challenge to engineer nanoprobes for high-efficiency in vivo imaging and clinical translation. Recent years have witnessed increasing research efforts devoted into engineering sub-10 nm ultrasmall nanoprobes for in vivo PL imaging, which offer the advantages of efficient body clearance, desired clinical translation potential, and high imaging signal-to-noise ratio. In this review, we present a comprehensive summary and contrastive discussion of emerging ultrasmall luminescent nanoprobes towards in vivo PL bioimaging of diseases. We first summarize size-dependent nano-bio interactions and imaging features, illustrating the unique attributes and advantages/disadvantages of ultrasmall nanoprobes differentiating them from molecular and large-sized probes. We also discuss general design methodologies and PL properties of emerging ultrasmall luminescent nanoprobes, which are established based on quantum dots, metal nanoclusters, lanthanide-doped nanoparticles, and silicon nanoparticles. Then, recent advances of ultrasmall luminescent nanoprobes are highlighted by surveying their latest in vivo PL imaging applications. Finally, we discuss existing challenges in this exciting field and propose some strategies to improve in vivo PL bioimaging and further propel their clinical applications.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has claimed around 6.4 million lives worldwide. The disease symptoms range from mild flu-like infection to life-threatening complications. The widespread infection demands rapid, simple, and accurate diagnosis. Currently used methods include molecular biology-based approaches that consist of conventional amplification by RT-PCR, isothermal amplification-based techniques such as RT-LAMP, and gene editing tools like CRISPR-Cas. Other methods include immunological detection including ELISA, lateral flow immunoassay, chemiluminescence, etc. Radiological-based approaches are also being used. Despite good analytical performance of these current methods, there is an unmet need for less costly and simpler tests that may be performed at point of care. Accordingly, nanomaterial-based testing has been extensively pursued. In this review, we discuss the currently used diagnostic techniques for SARS-CoV-2, their usefulness, and limitations. In addition, nanoparticle-based approaches have been highlighted as another potential means of detection. The review provides a deep insight into the current diagnostic methods and future trends to combat this deadly menace.

Abstract
Engineering bacteria can achieve targeted and controllable cancer therapy using synthetic biology technology and the characteristics of tumor microenvironment. Besides, the accurate tumor diagnosis and visualization of the treatment process are also vital for bacterial therapy. In this paper, a light control engineered bacteria system based on upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP)-mediated time-resolved imaging (TRI) was constructed for colorectal cancer theranostic and therapy. UCNP with different luminous lifetimes were separately modified with the tumor targeting molecule (folic acid) or anaerobic bacteria (Nissle 1917, EcN) to realize the co-localization of tumor tissues, thus improving the diagnostic accuracy based on TRI. In addition, blue light was used to induce engineered bacteria (EcN-pDawn-φx174E/TRAIL) lysis and the release of tumor apoptosis-related inducing ligand (TRAIL), thus triggering tumor cell death. In vitro and in vivo results indicated that this system could achieve accurate tumor diagnosis and light-controlled cancer therapy. EcN-pDawn-φx174E/TRAIL with blue light irradiation could inhibit 53% of tumor growth in comparison to that without blue light irradiation (11.8%). We expect that this engineered bacteria system provides a new technology for intelligent bacterial therapy and the construction of cancer theranostics.

Abstract
With the threat of increasing SARS-CoV-2 cases looming in front of us and no effective and safest vaccine available to curb this pandemic disease due to its sprouting variants, many countries have undergone a lockdown 2.0 or planning a lockdown 3.0. This has upstretched an unprecedented demand to develop rapid, sensitive, and highly selective diagnostic devices that can quickly detect coronavirus (COVID-19). Traditional techniques like polymerase chain reaction have proven to be time-inefficient, expensive, labor intensive, and impracticable in remote settings. This shifts the attention to alternative biosensing devices that can be successfully used to sense the COVID-19 infection and curb the spread of coronavirus cases. Among these, nanomaterial-based biosensors hold immense potential for rapid coronavirus detection because of their noninvasive and susceptible, as well as selective properties that have the potential to give real-time results at an economical cost. These diagnostic devices can be used for mass COVID-19 detection to understand the rapid progression of the infection and give better-suited therapies. This review provides an overview of existing and potential nanomaterial-based biosensors that can be used for rapid SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics. Novel biosensors employing different detection mechanisms are also highlighted in different sections of this review. Practical tools and techniques required to develop such biosensors to make them reliable and portable have also been discussed in the article. Finally, the review is concluded by presenting the current challenges and future perspectives of nanomaterial-based biosensors in SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics.

Abstract
The presence of pyrethroids in food and the environment due to their excessive use and extensive application in the agriculture industry represents a significant threat to public health. Therefore, the determination of the presence of pyrethroids in foods by simple, rapid, and sensitive methods is warranted. Herein, recognition methods for pyrethroids based on electrochemical and optical biosensors from the last five years are reviewed, including surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), surface plasmon resonance (SPR), chemiluminescence, biochemical, fluorescence, and colorimetric methods. In addition, recognition elements used for pyrethroid detection, including enzymes, antigens/antibodies, aptamers, and molecular-imprinted polymers, are classified and discussed based on the bioreceptor types. The current research status, the advantages and disadvantages of existing methods, and future development trends are discussed. The research progress of rapid pyrethroid detection in our laboratory is also presented.

Abstract
The pandemic of highly contagious diseases has put forward urgent requirements for high sensitivity and adaptive capacity of point-of-care testing (POCT). Herein, for the first time, we report an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) dye-energized light-initiated afterglow nanoprobes (named LiAGNPs), implemented onto a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) test strip, for diagnosis of two highly contagious diseases, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as model validation. The primary working mechanism relies on the cyclically generated singlet oxygen (1O2)-triggered time-resolved luminescent signals of LiAGNPs in which AIE dyes (TTMN) and chemiluminescent substrates (SO) are loaded. The designed LiAGNPs were found 2-fold and 32-fold sensitive than the currently used Eu(III)-based time-resolved fluorescent nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), respectively. In addition, the extra optical behaviors of nude color and fluorescence of LiAGNPs enable the LFIA platform with the capability of the naked eye and fluorescent detection to satisfy the applications under varying scenarios. In short, the versatile LiAGNPs have great potential as a novel time-resolved reporter in enhancing detection sensitivity and application flexibility with LFIA platform for rapid but sensitive infectious disease diagnostics.

Abstract
Lanthanide-based upconversion nanomaterials have recently attracted considerable attention in both fundamental research and various frontier applications owing to their excellent photon upconversion performance and favourable physicochemical properties. In particular, the emergence of multi-layer core-shell (MLCS) nanostructures offers a versatile and powerful tool to realize well-defined matrix compositions and spatial distributions of the dopant on the nanometer length scale. In contrast to the conventional nanomaterials and commonly investigated core-shell nanoparticles, the rational design of MLCS nanostructures allows us to deliberately introduce more functional properties into an upconversion system, thus providing unprecedented opportunities for the precise manipulation of energy transfer channels, the dynamic control of upconversion processes, the fine tuning of switchable emission colours and new functional integration at a single-particle level. In this review, we present a summary and discussion on the key aspects of the recent progress in lanthanide-based MLCS nanoparticles, including the manipulation of emission and lifetime, the switchable multicolour output and the lanthanide ionic interactions on the nanoscale. Benefitting from the multifunctional and versatile luminescence properties, the MLCS nanostructures exhibit great potential in diversities of frontier applications such as three-dimensional display, upconversion laser, optical memory, anti-counterfeiting, thermometry, bioimaging, and therapy. The outlook and challenges as well as perspectives for the research in MLCS nanostructure materials are also provided. This review would be greatly helpful in exploring new structural designs of lanthanide-based materials to further manipulate the upconversion phenomenon and expand their application boundaries.

Abstract
Lanthanide-doped nanoparticles possess numerous advantages including tunable luminescence emission, narrow peak width and excellent optical and thermal stability, especially concerning the long lifetime from microseconds to milliseconds. Differing from other shorter-lifetime fluorescent nanomaterials, the long lifetime of lanthanide-doped nanomaterials is independent with background fluorescence interference and biological tissue depth. This review presents the recent advances in approaches to regulating the lifetime and applications of bioimaging and biodetection. We begin with the introduction of the strategies for regulating the lifetime by modulating the core-shell structure, adjusting the concentration of sensitizer and emitter, changing energy transfer channel, establishing a fluorescence resonance energy transfer pathway and changing temperature. We then summarize the applications of these nanoparticles in biosensing, including ion and molecule detecting, DNA and protease detection, cell labeling, organ imaging and thermal and pH sensing. Finally, the prospects and challenges of the lanthanide lifetime regulation for fundamental research and practical applications are also discussed.

Abstract
Impurity doping is a promising method to impart new properties to various materials. Due to their unique optical, magnetic, and electrical properties, rare-earth ions have been extensively explored as active dopants in inorganic crystal lattices since the 18th century. Rare-earth doping can alter the crystallographic phase, morphology, and size, leading to tunable optical responses of doped nanomaterials. Moreover, rare-earth doping can control the ultimate electronic and catalytic performance of doped nanomaterials in a tunable and scalable manner, enabling significant improvements in energy harvesting and conversion. A better understanding of the critical role of rare-earth doping is a prerequisite for the development of an extensive repertoire of functional nanomaterials for practical applications. In this review, we highlight recent advances in rare-earth doping in inorganic nanomaterials and the associated applications in many fields. This review covers the key criteria for rare-earth doping, including basic electronic structures, lattice environments, and doping strategies, as well as fundamental design principles that enhance the electrical, optical, catalytic, and magnetic properties of the material. We also discuss future research directions and challenges in controlling rare-earth doping for new applications.

Abstract
Long-term nondestructive monitoring of cells is of significant importance for understanding cell proliferation, cell signaling, cell death, and other processes. However, traditional monitoring methods are limited to a certain range of testing conditions and may reduce cell viability. Here, we present a microgap, multishot electroporation (M2E) system for monitoring cell recovery for up to ∼2 h using ∼5 V pulses and with excellent cell viability using a medium cell population. Electric field simulations reveal the bias-voltage- and gap-size-dependent electric field intensities in the M2E system. In addition to excellent transparency with low cell toxicity, the M2E system does not require specialized components, expensive materials, complicated fabrication processes, or cell manipulations; it just consists of a micrometer-sized pattern and a low-voltage square-wave generator. Ultimately, the M2E system can offer a long-term and nontoxic method of cell monitoring.

Abstract
Selective, sensitive and affordable techniques to detect disease and underlying health issues have been developed recently. Biosensors as nanoanalytical tools have taken a front seat in this context. Nanotechnology-enabled progress in the health sector has aided in disease and pandemic management at a very early stage efficiently. This report reflects the state-of-the-art of nanobiosensor-based virus detection technology in terms of their detection methods, targets, limits of detection, range, sensitivity, assay time, etc. The article effectively summarizes the challenges with traditional technologies and newly emerging biosensors, including the nanotechnology-based detection kit for COVID-19; optically enhanced technology; and electrochemical, smart and wearable enabled nanobiosensors. The less explored but crucial piezoelectric nanobiosensor and the reverse transcription-loop mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP)-based biosensor are also discussed here. The article could be of significance to researchers and doctors dedicated to developing potent, versatile biosensors for the rapid identification of COVID-19.

Abstract
A novel time-resolved fluorescence (TRF) pobe is constructed to detect human serum albumin (HSA) by exploiting ZnGeO:Mn persistent luminescence nanorods (ZnGeO:Mn PLNRs) and polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs). HSA-induced dynamic quenching leads to the fluorescence decrease of ZnGeO:Mn PLNRs, providing the basis for quantitative analysis of HSA. The excellent photo-thermal conversion performance of PDA NPs is helpful to the collision process between ZnGeO:Mn PLNRs and HSA, inducing significant improvement of sensitivity. HSA is quantified by measuring time-resolved fluorescence at 540 nm under excitation of 250-nm light. Under optimal conditions, HSA in the linear range 0.1-100 ng mL-1 are detected by this PDA-mediated ZnGeO:Mn probe with high sensitivity and selectivity, and the detection limit is 36 pg mL-1 (3σ/s). The RSD for the quantification of HSA (5 ng mL-1, n = 11) is 5.2%. The practicability of this TRF probe is confirmed by accurate monitoring HSA contents in urine samples, giving rise to satisfactory spiking recoveries of 96.2-106.0%.

Abstract
Optical imaging is an indispensable tool in clinical diagnostics and fundamental biomedical research. Autofluorescence-free optical imaging, which eliminates real-time optical excitation to minimize background noise, enables clear visualization of biological architecture and physiopathological events deep within living subjects. Molecular probes especially developed for autofluorescence-free optical imaging have been proven to remarkably improve the imaging sensitivity, penetration depth, target specificity, and multiplexing capability. In this Review, we focus on the advancements of autofluorescence-free molecular probes through the lens of particular molecular or photophysical mechanisms that produce long-lasting luminescence after the cessation of light excitation. The versatile design strategies of these molecular probes are discussed along with a broad range of biological applications. Finally, challenges and perspectives are discussed to further advance the next-generation autofluorescence-free molecular probes for in vivo imaging and in vitro biosensors.

Abstract
There is an undeniable growing number of diabetes cases worldwide that have received widespread global attention by many pharmaceutical and clinical industries to develop better functioning glucose sensing devices. This has called for an unprecedented demand to develop highly efficient, stable, selective, and sensitive non-enzymatic glucose sensors (NEGS). Interestingly, many novel materials have shown the promising potential of directly detecting glucose in the blood and fluids. This review exclusively encompasses the electrochemical detection of glucose and its mechanism based on various metal-based materials such as cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), titanium (Ti), iridium (Ir), and rhodium (Rh). Multiple aspects of these metals and their oxides were explored vis-à-vis their performance in glucose detection. The direct glucose oxidation via metallic redox centres is explained by the chemisorption model and the incipient hydrous oxide/adatom mediator (IHOAM) model. The glucose electrooxidation reactions on the electrode surface were elucidated by equations. Furthermore, it was explored that an effective detection of glucose depends on the aspect ratio, surface morphology, active sites, structures, and catalytic activity of nanomaterials, which plays an indispensable role in designing efficient NEGS. The challenges and possible solutions for advancing NEGS have been summarized.

Abstract
The upconversion of manganese (Mn2+) exhibits a green light output with a much longer lifetime than that of lanthanide ions, showing great potential in the frontier applications like information security and anti-counterfeiting. Mn2+ can be activated by energy migration upconversion. However, there exists serious quenching interactions between Mn2+ and the lanthanides at the core-shell interfacial area, which would markedly reduce the role of Tm3+ as a ladder to facilitate the up-transition and subsequently limit the upconversion of Mn2+. Here, we propose a mechanistic strategy to enhance the upconversion luminescence of Mn2+ by spatial control of energy migration among Gd sublattice through introducing an additional migratory NaGdF4 interlayer within the commonly used core-shell nanostructure. This design can not only isolate the interfacial quenching interactions between the sensitized core and luminescent shell, but also allow an efficient channel for energy transport, resulting in enhanced upconversion of Mn2+. Moreover, the relatively long lifetime of Mn2+ (around 32.861 ms) provides new possibilities to utilize the temporal characteristic for the frontier application of multi-level anti-counterfeiting through combining the time-gating technology.

Abstract
In this study, we focused on arsenic as a new potential motif for the ligand design of high-efficiency, luminous lanthanide complexes. A Eu3+ complex bearing triphenylarsine oxide had a photosensitized energy-transfer efficiency 7.9 times higher than that of a Eu3+ complex bearing triphenylphosphine oxide. This is mainly due to the heavy-atom effect of arsenic, which was supported by evaluating the photoluminescence spectra of their corresponding Gd3+ complexes.

Abstract
Europium (III) luminescent chelates possess intrinsic photophysical properties that are extremely useful in a wide range of applications. The lack of examples of coumarin-based lanthanide complexes is mainly due to poor photo-sensitization attempts. However, with the appeal of using such a versatile scaffold as antenna, especially in the development of responsive molecular probes, it is worth the effort to research new structural motifs. In this work, we present a series of two new tris coumarin-dipicolinate europium (III) complexes, specifically tailored to be either a mono or a dual emitter, tuning their properties with a simple chemical modification. We also encountered a rich chemical speciation in solution, studied in detail by means of paramagnetic NMR and emission spectroscopy.

Abstract
We are currently facing the COVID-19 pandemic which is the consequence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). Since no specific vaccines or drugs have been developed till date for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection, early diagnosis is essential to further combat this pandemic. In this context, the reliable, rapid, and low-cost technique for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis is the foremost priority. At present reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is the reference technique presently being used for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, in a number of cases, false results have been noticed in COVID-19 diagnosis. To develop advanced techniques, researchers are continuously working and in the series of constant efforts, nanomaterials-enabled biosensing approaches can be a hope to offer novel techniques that may perhaps meet the current demand of fast and early diagnosis of COVID-19 cases. This paper provides an overview of the COVID-19 pandemic and nanomaterials-enabled biosensing approaches that have been recently reported for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2. Though limited studies on the development of nanomaterials enabled biosensing techniques for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 have been reported, this review summarizes nanomaterials mediated improved biosensing strategies and the possible mechanisms that may be responsible for the diagnosis of the COVID-19 disease. It is reviewed that nanomaterials e.g. gold nanostructures, lanthanide-doped polysterene nanoparticles (NPs), graphene and iron oxide NPs can be potentially used to develop advanced techniques offered by colorimetric, amperometric, impedimetric, fluorescence, and optomagnetic based biosensing of SARS-CoV-2. Finally, critical issues that are likely to accelerate the development of nanomaterials-enabled biosensing for SARS-CoV-2 infection have been discussed in detail. This review may serve as a guide for the development of advanced techniques for nanomaterials enabled biosensing to fulfill the present demand of low-cost, rapid and early diagnosis of COVID-19 infection.

Abstract
Monodisperse Tb-doped NaCeF4 nanocrystals were synthesized via a hydrothermal method. The morphology, and room temperature and temperature dependent luminescent properties were investigated. Excited at 254 nm, the emissions of Ce3+ at 270-370 nm and those of Tb3+ at 475-700 nm can be observed. The strongest visible emission was observed in NaCeF4:20 at% Tb with a quantum yield of 49%. The efficiency of energy transfer from Ce3+ to Tb3+ increases with the Tb3+ doping concentration and reaches 95% for NaCeF4:30 at% Tb. The ratio of Tb3+ emission to Ce3+ emission is sensitive to temperature, and the relative sensitivity was calculated to be 1.0% °C-1 at 60 °C. The mechanisms for this thermal dependence were analyzed in terms of non-radiative relaxation and energy migration.

Abstract
Lanthanide nanoparticles (LNPs) are promising sensors of chemical, mechanical, and temperature changes; they combine the narrow-spectral emission and long-lived excited states of individual lanthanide ions with the high spatial resolution and controlled energy transfer of nanocrystalline architectures. Despite considerable progress in optimizing LNP brightness and responsiveness for dynamic sensing, detection of stimuli with a spatial resolution approaching that of individual nanoparticles remains an outstanding challenge. Here, we highlight the existing capabilities and outstanding challenges of LNP sensors, en-route to nanometer-scale, single particle sensor resolution. First, we summarize LNP sensor read-outs, including changes in emission wavelength, lifetime, intensity, and spectral ratiometric values that arise from modified energy transfer networks within nanoparticles. Then, we describe the origins of LNP sensor imprecision, including sensitivity to competing conditions, interparticle heterogeneities, such as the concentration and distribution of dopant ions, and measurement noise. Motivated by these sources of signal variance, we describe synthesis characterization feedback loops to inform and improve sensor precision, and introduce noise-equivalent sensitivity as a figure of merit of LNP sensors. Finally, we project the magnitudes of chemical and pressure stimulus resolution achievable with single LNPs at nanoscale resolution. Our perspective provides a roadmap for translating ensemble LNP sensing capabilities to the single particle level, enabling nanometer-scale sensing in biology, medicine, and sustainability.

Abstract
Here we report on the development and investigation of a novel multiplex assay model based on polymer microspheres (PMS) encoded with ternary AIS/ZnS quantum dots (QDs). The system was prepared via layer-by-layer deposition technique. Our studies of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the QD-encoded microspheres and two different cyanine dyes have demonstrated that the QD photoluminescence (PL) quenching steadily increases with a decrease in the QD-dye distance. We have found that the sensitized dye PL intensity demonstrates a clear maximum at two double layers of polyelectrolytes between QDs and Dye molecules on the polymer microspheres. Time resolved PL measurements have shown that the PL lifetime decreases for the QDs and increases for the dyes due to FRET. The designed system makes it possible to record spectrally different bands of FRET-induced dye luminescence with different decay times and thereby allows for the multiplexing by wavelength and photoluminescence lifetimes of the dyes. We believe that PMS encoded with AIS/ZnS QDs have great potential for the development of new highly selective and sensitive sensor systems for multiplex analysis to detect cell lysates and body fluids' representative biomarkers.
