Abstract
Heavy metal ion pollution poses significant risks to human health and ecological systems, and its monitoring is important. A sensitive and accurate surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection assay for Hg2+ was developed using Au@Ag/COF substrates and Y-shaped DNA labeled with two Raman reporters. The Au@Ag NPs in the COF produced robust and uniform E-fields, improving their detection reproducibility. The Y-shaped DNA design increased sensitivity with a low detection limit of 5.0 × 10-16 M by bringing the Raman reporter closer to the substrate surface. Additionally, the use of two Raman reporters allowed for a ratiometric method, improving detection accuracy by detecting both "signal-off" and "signal-on" signals. This selective sensor exhibited excellent recovery in river water, tap water, and milk samples, showcasing its robust biosensing capability for the detection of Hg2+ and its potential for sensing other heavy-metal ions in food and environmental applications.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 311:123980. [PMID: 38335589 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2024.123980] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2023] [Revised: 01/07/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Fluorescent copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) was synthesized by one-step chemical reduction method using ascorbic acid (AA) and copper sulfate (CuSO4⋅5H2O) as raw materials, which had good water solubility and fluorescence properties. A green, simple and safe CuNPs@Fe2+ fluorescence probe was developed for the detection of hydrogen peroxide and glucose using Fe2+ as a bridge. The prepared CuNPs could obtain the maximum fluorescence emission wavelength at 440 nm when the excitation wavelength was 360 nm. The average particle size of CuNPs was 10 nm, which had good photobleach resistance, stability and salt tolerance. The fluorescence intensity was quenched due to electron transfer (ET) process when hydrogen peroxide was added to CuNPs@Fe2+ system. This result was mainly because Fenton reaction occured between hydrogen peroxide and Fe2+, producing hydroxyl free radicals (OH) and Fe3+. Since glucose could be catalyzed by specific glucose oxidase (GOX) to produce H2O2 and corresponding oxidation products, the quantitative analysis of glucose was realized when glucose oxidase was introduced into the CuNPs@Fe2+ sensor system. Therefore, a novel CuNPs@Fe2+ fluorescent probe sensor study was constructed to further achieve quantitative detection of H2O2 and glucose. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the linear ranges for H2O2 and glucose were 28.219-171.562 μM and 1.237-75.771 μM, respectively. And the detection limits for H2O2 and glucose were 7.169 μM and 0.540 μM, respectively. In addition, the mechanism of fluorescence probe quenching caused by the interaction between H2O2 and CuNPs@Fe2+ was also discussed. The proposed sensing system had been applied successfully to the detection of glucose in human serum samples.

Abstract
Accumulation of bioavailable heavy metals in aquatic environment poses a serious threat to marine communities and human health due to possible trophic transfers through the food chain of toxic, non-degradable, exogenous pollutants. Copper (Cu) is one of the most spread heavy metals in water, and can severely affect primary producers at high doses. Here we show a novel imaging test to assay the dose-dependent effects of Cu on live microalgae identifying stress conditions when they are still capable of sustaining a positive growth. The method relies on Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy (FPM), capable to image large field of view in label-free phase-contrast mode attaining submicron lateral resolution. We uniquely combine FPM with a new multi-scale analysis method based on fractal geometry. The system is able to provide ensemble measurements of thousands of diatoms in the liquid sample simultaneously, while ensuring at same time single-cell imaging and analysis for each diatom. Through new image descriptors, we demonstrate that fractal analysis is suitable for handling the complexity and informative power of such multiscale FPM modality. We successfully tested this new approach by measuring how different concentrations of Cu impact on Skeletonema pseudocostatum diatom populations isolated from the Sarno River mouth.

Abstract
Gliomas, a prevalent category of primary malignant brain tumors, pose formidable clinical challenges due to their invasive nature and limited treatment options. The current therapeutic landscape for gliomas is constrained by a "one-size-fits-all" paradigm, significantly restricting treatment efficacy. Despite the implementation of multimodal therapeutic strategies, survival rates remain disheartening. The conventional treatment approach, involving surgical resection, radiation, and chemotherapy, grapples with substantial limitations, particularly in addressing the invasive nature of gliomas. Conventional diagnostic tools, including computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET), play pivotal roles in outlining tumor characteristics. However, they face limitations, such as poor biological specificity and challenges in distinguishing active tumor regions. The ongoing development of diagnostic tools and therapeutic approaches represents a multifaceted and promising frontier in the battle against this challenging brain tumor. The aim of this comprehensive review is to address recent advances in diagnostic tools and therapeutic approaches for gliomas. These innovations aim to minimize invasiveness while enabling the precise, multimodal targeting of localized gliomas. Researchers are actively developing new diagnostic tools, such as colorimetric techniques, electrochemical biosensors, optical coherence tomography, reflectometric interference spectroscopy, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and optical biosensors. These tools aim to regulate tumor progression and develop precise treatment methods for gliomas. Recent technological advancements, coupled with bioelectronic sensors, open avenues for new therapeutic modalities, minimizing invasiveness and enabling multimodal targeting with unprecedented precision. The next generation of multimodal therapeutic strategies holds potential for precision medicine, aiding the early detection and effective management of solid brain tumors. These innovations offer promise in adopting precision medicine methodologies, enabling early disease detection, and improving solid brain tumor management. This review comprehensively recognizes the critical role of pioneering therapeutic interventions, holding significant potential to revolutionize brain tumor therapeutics.

Abstract
Invading mercury would cause many serious health hazards such as kidney damage, genetic freak, and nerve injury to human body. Thus, developing highly efficient and convenient mercury detection methods is of great significance for environmental governance and protection of public health. Motivated by this problem, various testing technologies for detecting trace mercury in the environment, food, medicines or daily chemicals have been developed. Among them, the fluorescence sensing technology is a sensitive and efficient detection method for detecting Hg2+ ions due to its simple operation, rapid response and economic value. This review aims to discuss the recent advances in fluorescent materials for Hg2+ ion detection. We reviewed the Hg2+ sensing materials and divided them into seven categories according to the sensing mechanism: static quenching, photoinduced electron transfer, intramolecular charge transfer, aggregation-induced emission, metallophilic interaction, mercury-induced reactions and ligand-to-metal energy transfer. The challenges and prospects of fluorescent Hg2+ ion probes are briefly presented. We hope that this review can provide some new insights and guidance for the design and development of novel fluorescent Hg2+ ion probes to promote their applications.

Abstract
A novel quinoxaline-hydrazinobenzothiazole based sensor was synthesized and characterized using NMR, FTIR, and Mass spectroscopy techniques. The sensor achieves the distinct "single-point" colorimetric and fluorescent detection of Cu2+, Co2+, Ni2+ and Hg2+ ions with distinguishable color changes from yellow to red, pale red, pale brown and orange, respectively. The UV-visible and fluorescence emission spectral investigation revealed the excellent single-point sensing ability of the probe towards four different heavy metal ions with a ratiometric response. Nanomolar levels of detection of about 1.16 × 10-7 M, 9.92 × 10-8 M, 8.21 × 10-8 M, and 1.14 × 10-7 M for Cu2+, Co2+, Ni2+ and Hg2+ ions, respectively, were achieved using our sensor, which are below the US-EPA permissible limits. Additionally, the sensor was utilized for naked eye detection under normal daylight. Quantitative determination of the metal ions in real water samples was also demonstrated.

Abstract
A very sensitive and selective colorimetric biosensor for the measurement of mercury ion (Hg2+) in environmental samples has been developed using functionalized gold nanoparticles with bromelain enzyme (brn-AuNPs). This work has shown that Hg2+ measurement based on spectrophotometer and digital image analysis is a very innovative and successful method for providing an effective preliminary system and has promise for the future of water quality biomonitoring. Response Surface Methodology (RSM), a Box-Behnken design-based technique, was used to identify the optimum levels of functionalization of bromelain to AuNPs. The created model's validity was confirmed, and statistical analysis revealed that the ideal functionalize conditions were 1 mM of AuNPs, functionalize with 0.59 mM bromelain concentration on 14 ℃ temperature and 72 h incubation time. The lowest colorimetric detection concentration (LOD) of brn-AuNPs of Hg2+ was 0.0092 ppm and 0.011 ppm for spectrophotometer and digital image analysis. As shown, digital image analysis had advantages based on the LOD result comparable to UV-VIS spectrophotometer. The practical application of the brn-AuNPs sensing was proven with mercury determination in water samples. The present study developed a robust sensor, which successfully implemented in a compact portable sensor kit, turning this sensor into a very potent tool for the development water quality biomonitoring system of Hg2+ application.

Abstract
The zebrafish is a powerful model organism to study the mechanisms governing transition metal ions within whole brain tissue. Zinc is one of the most abundant metal ions in the brain, playing a critical pathophysiological role in neurodegenerative diseases. The homeostasis of free, ionic zinc (Zn2+) is a key intersection point in many of these diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. A Zn2+ imbalance can eventuate several disturbances that may lead to the development of neurodegenerative changes. Therefore, compact, reliable approaches that allow the optical detection of Zn2+ across the whole brain would contribute to our current understanding of the mechanisms that underlie neurological disease pathology. We developed an engineered fluorescence protein-based nanoprobe that can spatially and temporally resolve Zn2+ in living zebrafish brain tissue. The self-assembled engineered fluorescence protein on gold nanoparticles was shown to be confined to defined locations within the brain tissue, enabling site specific studies, compared to fluorescent protein-based molecular tools, which diffuse throughout the brain tissue. Two-photon excitation microscopy confirmed the physical and photometrical stability of these nanoprobes in living zebrafish (Danio rerio) brain tissue, while the addition of Zn2+ quenched the nanoprobe fluorescence. Combining orthogonal sensing methods with our engineered nanoprobes will enable the study of imbalances in homeostatic Zn2+ regulation. The proposed bionanoprobe system offers a versatile platform to couple metal ion specific linkers and contribute to the understanding of neurological diseases.

Abstract
In the present study, we have successfully synthesized and characterized carboxy methyl cashew gum modified gold nanoparticles (CMCG-AuNPs) via a microwave-assisted method and used as a calorimetric probe for selective detection of Hg2+ ions as well as catalytic reduction of methyl red in an aqueous medium. The effect of different parameters including concentration and irradiation time on the formation of CMCG-AuNPs was also investigated. The presence of strong surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak in the visible region indicated the formation of AuNPs. The characterization techniques were identified the interaction between the CMCG and AuNPs with estimation of size and morphology. The face centred cubic (FCC) crystal structure was identified by using XRD and supporting with SAED pattern. TEM images of CMCG-AuNPs were exhibited as polydispersed with spherical in shape and the average particle size was 12 ± 3 nm. The synthesized CMCG-AuNPs were utilized to sensing Hg2+ ions in an aqueous medium, the presence of Hg2+ ions selectively among other metal ions, the CMCG-AuNPs were aggregated by changing the color from wine red to purple blue accompanied by change in the position of SPR peak and intensity. It was observed as a strong linear relationship based on the change in intensity, the limit of detection was determined to be 0.277 nM. The catalytic activity was also examined for the reduction of methyl red (MR) in the presence of CMCG-AuNPs was completed within 12 min and followed pseudo-first order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.261 min-1. From the obtained results, the synthesized CMCG-AuNPs were useful for detection of heavy metal ions as well as toxic pollutants degradation via a green method, and utilized sensing, environmental, and biomedical application in future.

Abstract
Highly sensitive, simple and reliable colorimetric probe for Cu2+-ion detection was visualized with the L-cysteine functionalized gold nanoparticle (LS-AuNP) probes. The pronounced sensing of Cu2+ with high selectivity was rapidly featured with obvious colour change that enabled to visually sense Cu2+ ions by naked eyes. By employing systemic investigations on crystallinities, elemental compositions, microstructures, surface features, light absorbance, zeta potentials and chemical states of LS-AuNP probes, the oxidation-triggered aggregation effect of LS-AuNP probes was envisioned. The results indicated that the mediation of Cu2+ oxidation coordinately caused the formation of disulfide cystine, rendering the removal of thiol group at AuNPs surfaces. These features reflected the visual colour change for the employment of tracing Cu2+ ions in a quantitative way.

Abstract
The primary source of heavy metal discharge into the water is human activity and urbanization near water bodies. Contamination of drinking water sources with heavy metals has a harmful impact on the environment and human health. The most commonly used heavy metals are Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Nickel (Ni), Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Arsenic (As), Mercury (Hg), etc. The heavy metal ions are easily absorbed by living things via water and spread throughout the food chain, posing a threat to humans, plants, and animals (Zhang et al., 2018; Lu et al., 2019; Ma et al., 2020; Gao et al., 2018; Wen et al., 2018; Saranya et al., 2021). Colorimetric sensing is a simple and cost-effective method for the detection of heavy metal ions. Moreover, the results can be analysed with naked eye. In this work, Ag doped ZnO nanoparticles synthesized via co-precipitation method are used for the colorimetric detection of heavy metal ions. The nanoparticles are characterized for their morphology, structural, and chemical analysis using XRD, SEM, EDS, and XPS techniques. The synthesized nanoparticles are used for the colorimetric detection of heavy metal ions. The heavy metal ions such as Ni2+, Cu2+, Cr3+, Cr6+, Fe2+, and Fe3+ are successfully detected and the color change is visible from the naked eye. The minimum concentration detected is found to be 100 μM. The results are analysed via UV-vis spectroscopy. In addition to detection, the nanoparticles are further used as catalyst during the degradation of above detected heavy metal ions using NaBH4. All the heavy metal ions are degraded with in the duration of 30 min. Thus, the Ag doped ZnO nanoparticles successfully detected the heavy metal ions in aqueous solution and also acted as a catalyst during their degradation.

Abstract
Nano-bio-conjugates, featuring noble metal gold-silver alloy nanoparticles, represent a versatile tool in diagnostics and therapeutics due to their plasmonic and antimicrobial properties tunable by the particle's gold molar fraction. However, little is known about how the binding of thiolated biomolecules to noble metal nanoparticles is influenced by the fraction of gold and silver atoms on the nanoparticle's surface and to which extend this would affect the functionality of the conjugated biomolecules. In this work, we generated gold-silver alloy nanoparticles with average diameters of 7-8 nm using the modern, surfactant-free laser ablation in liquids (LAL) synthesis approach. We conjugated them with thiolated miniStrep aptamer ligands at well-controlled aptamer-to-nanoparticle surface area ratios with maxima between 12 and 27 pmol aptamer/cm2 particle surface area. The results revealed a clear correlation between surface coverage and the nanoparticles' nominal gold/silver ratio, with maximum coverage reached for gold-rich alloys and a pronounced maximum for silver-rich alloys. However, the conjugates' functionality, evaluated by binding of streptavidin, was surprisingly robust and hardly affected by the nominal composition. However, 1.5 times higher surface coverage was needed to obtain maximum functionality in the silver-rich conjugates. Based on these results, it may be concluded that the nominal composition of gold-silver alloy nano-bioconjugates is freely tunable without a pronounced impact on the attached ligands' functionality, a finding highly relevant for the flexible design of nano-bio-conjugates for future biomedical applications. This study's results may facilitate the design of alloy nano-bio-conjugates for future applications in therapeutics and diagnostics.

Lignin-mediated green synthesis of functionalized gold nanoparticles via pulsed laser technique for selective colorimetric detection of lead ions in aqueous media. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 420:126585. [PMID: 34273885 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.126585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2021] [Revised: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 07/03/2021] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
A versatile green synthesis technique of pulsed laser irradiation and the sonochemical process was used for the production of functionalized gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) in the presence of lignin matrixes. In this study, the futuristic advantages of the lignin biopolymer were explored for the preparation of zero-valent Au NPs in the absence of any other reducing agents. The resulting lignin functionalized Au NPs (L-Auf NPs) were characterized via high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The optimum lignin concentration can generate uniformly dispersed crystalline L-Auf NPs. The optimized L-Auf (1-5) NPs permit the selective colorimetric detection of heavy metal ions; thus, the L-Auf (1-5) NPs demonstrated a highly selective colorimetric sensing tendency toward Pb2+ ions within a short time interval among the various metal ions (Pb2+, Fe3+, Cu2+, Cr6+, Co2+, Ag2+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Ba2+, and Hg2+). The prominent color change of L-Auf NPs from red wine to purple indicates the detection of Pb2+ ions. This robust characteristic nature of L-Auf (1-5) NPs can also detect very low concentrations of 1.8 μM in the linear range of 0.1-1 mM. Hence, the outcome of this study coincides with existing studies and indicates that L-Auf (1-5) NPs can also be used as effective sensors for the rapid and selective detection of Pb2+ ions via the colorimetric analysis using the real environmental samples.

Abstract
Excessive mercury ions (Hg2+) cause great pollution to soil/water and pose a major threat to human health. The high sensitivity and high selectivity in the Hg2+ detection demonstrated herein are significant for the research areas of analytical chemistry, chemical biology, physical chemistry, drug discovery, and clinical diagnosis. In this study, a series of simple, low-cost, and highly sensitive biochips based on a graphene oxide (GO)/DNA hybrid was developed. Hg2+ is detected with high sensitivity and selectivity by GO/DNA hybrid biochips immobilized on glass slides. The performance of the biosensors can be improved by introducing more phosphorothioate sites and complementary bases. The best limit of detection of the biochips is 0.38 nM with selectivity of over 10:1. This sensor was also used for Hg2+ detection in Dendrobium. The results show this biochip is promising for Hg2+ detection.

Abstract
New nanocomposites, Fe3O4@Au-FITC, were prepared and explored to develop a fluorescent detection of Pb2+. The Fe3O4@AuNPs-FITC nanocomposites could be etched by Pb2+ in the presence of Na2S2O3, leading to fluorescence recovery of FITC quenched by Fe3O4@Au nanocomposites. With the increase of Pb2+ concentration, the fluorescence recovery of Fe3O4@AuNPs-FITC increased gradually. Under optimized conditions, a detection limit of 5.2 nmol/L of Pb2+ with a linear range of 0.02-2.0 µmol/L were obtained. The assay demonstrated negligible response to common metal ions. Recoveries of 98.2-106.4% were obtained when this fluorescent method was applied in detecting Pb2+ spiked in a lake-water sample. The above results demonstrated the high potential of ion-induced nanomaterial etching in developing robust fluorescent assays.

Abstract
Heavy metals are one of the most hazardous inorganic contaminants of both water and soil environment composition. Normally, heavy metals are non-biodegradable in nature because of their long persistence in the environment. Trace amounts of heavy metal contamination may pose severe health problems in human beings after prolonged consumption. Many instrumental techniques such as atomic absorption spectrophotometry, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry, X-ray fluorescence, neutron activation analysis, etc. have been developed to determine their concentration in water as well as in the soil up to ppm, ppb, or ppt levels. Recent advances in these techniques along with their respective advantages and limitations are being discussed in the present paper. Moreover, some possible remedial phytoremediation approaches (phytostimulation, phytoextraction, phyotovolatilization, rhizofiltration, phytostabilization) have been presented for the removal of the heavy metal contamination from the water and soil environments.

Abstract
Pollution due to heavy metal ions, including mercury, has become a major issue because of their toxicities. It is required to monitor mercury levels in aqueous media using fast and selective methods with high accuracy. Ellipsometry is a promising technique for instance when it's combined with the plasmon resonance phenomena. We reported a biosensor system available for qualitative/quantitative determination of mercuric ions in aqueous media where both the spectrophotometric ellipsometry and oligonucleotide recognition elements were used. A single step assay using both a linear (ProbeL) and a hair-pin (ProbeH) type oligonucleotide probe as a recognition element, in addition to a sandwich-type (ProbeLS) assay were developed and compared. The detection limits were 0.23 nM, 0.03 nM and 0.15 pM for ProbeL, ProbeH and ProbeLS, respectively. The detection range was between 0.05 nM and 100 nM Hg2+ for all assays proposed herein.

Abstract
Metal nanoparticles have generated great interest due to their excellent optical and chemical properties. The widely used chemical method for synthesising nanoparticles involves capping agents for colloidal stability. However, there are scarce reports on the application of metal nanoparticles synthesised without using capping agents. Hence, there is a need to develop pristine nanoparticles devoid of capping that can be used for translational research. Here, the authors developed a facile and rapid method for synthesising bare metal nanoparticles (platinum/silver/gold) that are chemically reactive and stable for a month upon storage. They synthesised bare metal nanoparticles of sub-15 nm and characterised using standard techniques (UV-VIS-NIR/DLS/zeta//TEM/XRD). They assessed the safety of the synthesised nanoparticles on the liver carcinoma cell line (HepG2). Bare gold and platinum nanoparticles were non-toxic in comparison to bare silver nanoparticles. Bare metal nanoparticles were also checked for metal detection wherein antimony, mercury and chromium were detected using bare gold and silver nanoparticles. The spectroscopic shifts of the nanoparticles when bound to metals resulted in blue and red shifting of the plasmon band, indicating the sensing of metals. These results show that bare metal nanoparticles have the potential to emerge as a promising candidate for biomedical and sensing applications.

Abstract
A grey system based on the principle of complementary colors was constructed as an activatable probe for the sensitive and specific ratio-colorimetric detection lead ions (Pb2+) in a complex food matrix. This grey system was prepared by mixing purple-red AuNP-capped glutathione (GSH) and green-blue sulfonated pigment green 7 (SPG7), to create the SPG7/AuNP probe. In the presence of Pb2+, the strong chelation of Pb2+ with GSH could trigger the aggregation of AuNPs, leading to the color activation of SPG7. Hence, the absorbance ratio A523nm/A628nm of AuNPs at ∼523 nm and SPG7 at ∼628 nm could be used for highly specific reporting of Pb2+ levels with a low detection limit of 0.33 μg/L. Moreover, this probe exhibited promising practical applications in real preserved egg samples with recoveries of 89.2 to 107.5% and relative standard deviations (RSD) in the range of 0.28 to 2.12%, revealing its great potential for harmful substance detection.

Abstract
DNA-templated fluorescent nanoclusters (NCs) have attracted increasing research interest on account of their prominent features, such as DNA sequence-dependent fluorescence, easy functionalization, wide availability, water solubility, and excellent biocompatibility. Coupling DNA templates with complementary DNA, aptamers, G-quadruplex, and so on has generated a large number of sensors. Additionally, the preparation and applications of DNA-templated fluorescent NCs in these sensing have been widely studied. This review firstly focuses on the properties of DNA-templated fluorescent NCs, and the synthesis of DNA-templated fluorescent NCs with different metals is then discussed. In the third part, we mainly introduce the applications of DNA-templated fluorescent NCs for sensing metal ions. At last, we further discuss the future perspectives of DNA-templated fluorescent NCs in the synthesis and sensing metal ions in the environmental and biological fields.

Abstract
Inspired by the increasing use of plasmonic gold and silver nanoplates as probes for diverse analytes, the research community often questions which metal nanoplates should be chosen for a given application. A comparative study was performed on the performance and physicochemical properties of three types of metal nanoplates for use in plasmonic detection of Hg(II) ion. Specifically, gold, silver and Ag@Au nanoplates were studied. The established amalgamation method integrated into a detection scheme using nanoplates affords a unique yet straightforward signaling and extraction route for selective recognition of Hg(II) ion. Upon transformation of Hg(II) ion to metallic mercury, nanoplate amalgamation takes place instantly. This reshapes both the morphology and the optical characteristics of nanoplates. It is found that gold and Ag@Au nanoplates enable highly selective quantitation of Hg(II) ion by using a DNA oligomer consisting of poly-deoxycytidine (poly(C)) as a masking agent against Ag(I) ion. The silver nanoplates, in turn, display the best sensitivity owing to the chemical instability. The induced surface plasmonic shifts (of up to 250 nm and color changes from red to green) allows for determination of Hg(II) over a wide range and with a limit of detection of ~10 nM. It is recommended that the gold and Ag@Au nanoplates are used in relatively complex systems, while silver nanoplates are suited for simple matrices. Graphic abstract The amalgamation process integrated with metal (e.g., Au, Ag and Ag@Au) nanoplates affords plasmonic detection of Hg(II) ion with the aid of a poly(c) DNA sequence as the masking agent for Ag(I) ion.

Abstract
A fluorescent probe is described for detection of mercury(II) ion by using L-cysteine-modified gold nanoparticles (Cys-AuNP). These were fabricated by a tube-based redox reaction where Cys acts as both the reducing reagent and capping ligand. The Cys-AuNP display red fluorescence, with excitation/emission peaks at 373/625 nm. Owing to the high-affinity of the Hg(II)-Au(I) interaction and the Hg(II)/carboxy or amino group interaction, the presence of Hg(II) cause selective quenching the fluorescence, while other metal ions do not give such an effect. Based on these findings, a method was designed for the determination of Hg(II) that has attractive figures of merit. These include a low limit of detection (1.3 nM), a wide detection range (from 2 nM to 30µM), and excellent specificity. The method was applied to Hg(II) screening in (spiked) tap and river water, and it gave satisfactory results. Graphical abstract Schematic representation of the application of L-cysteine modified gold nanoparticles (Cys-AuNP) for qualitative and quantitative detection of mercury(II) ions. Based on the interaction between Cys-AuNP and mercury(II) ion to quench the red fluorescence of Cys-AuNP, the target mercury(II) can in turn be determined by a fluorometric method.

Abstract
A novel multifunctional fluorescent peptide sensor based on pentapeptide dansyl-Gly-His-Gly-Gly-Trp-COOH (D-P5) was designed and synthesized efficiently using Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). This fluorescent peptide sensor shows selective and sensitive responses to Hg2+ and Cu2+ among 17 metal ions and six anions studied in N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethane sulfonic acid (HEPES) buffer solution. The peptide probe differentiates Hg2+ and Cu2+ ions by a 'turn-on' response to Hg2+ and a 'turn-off' response to Cu2+ . Upon addition of Hg2+ or Cu2+ ions, the sensor displayed an apparent color change that was visible under an ultraviolet lamp to the naked eye. The limits of detection (LOD) of DP-5 were 25.0 nM for Hg2+ and 85.0 nM for Cu2+ ; the detection limits for Cu2+ were much lower than the drinking water maximum contaminant levels set out by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). It is noteworthy that both D-P5-Hg and D-P5-Cu systems were also used to detect S2- successfully based on the formation of ternary complexes. The LODs of D-P5-Hg and D-P5-Cu systems for S2- were 217.0 nM and 380.0 nM, respectively. Furthermore, the binding stoichiometry, binding affinity and pH sensitivity of the probe for Hg2+ and Cu2+ were investigated. This study gives new possibilities for using a short fluorescent peptide sensor for multifunctional detection, especially for anions.

Abstract
An efficient fluorescent probe Pyr-Rhy based on pyrazole was developed, which can detect Hg2+ in water. Its fluorescence properties were studied by UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, and the study results indicated that this probe can selectively detect Hg2+via complexation reaction, and then cause a remarkable color change from colorless to pink and a strong fluorescence enhancement can be observed. Furthermore, this probe showed high sensitivity with the detection limit down to 2.07 × 10−8 M, and its stoichiometric ratio toward Hg2+ ions was 1 : 1. The sensing mechanism was investigated by Job's plot 1H NMR titrations, and FT-IR spectra analysis, which demonstrated a chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) mechanism. More importantly, obvious color changes of sensor Pyr-Rhy can be observed when it was impregnated on filter paper testing strips and immersed in Hg2+ solution (water as solution), indicating its potential application for trace Hg2+ detection in environmental samples. An efficient fluorescent probe Pyr-Rhy based on pyrazole was developed, which can detect Hg2+ in water.![]()

Fluorescent probes of AuNCs have exhibited high compatibility, superior photostablility, and excellent water solubility which resulted in remarkable biomedical applications for long-term imaging, high-sensitivity detection, and target-specific treatment. Recently, great efforts have been made in the developments of AuNCs as the fluorescent probes for various biomedical applications. In this review, we have collected fluorescent AuNCs prepared by different ligands, including small molecules, polymers, and biomacromolecules, and highlighted current achievements of AuNCs in biomedical applications for imaging, detection, and therapy. According to these advances, we further provided conclusions of present challenges and future perspectives of AuNCs for fundamental investigations and practical biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nanostructured carbon black (CB) was first employed directly in this paper for the simultaneous electrochemical determination of trace Pb(II) and Cd(II) using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry. The morphology and surface properties of conductive CB were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Special pore structures, as well as surface chemical functional groups, endow CB with excellent catalytic and adsorption properties. Some parameters affecting electrical analysis performance were investigated systematically including deposition time and potential, pH value of solution, volume of suspension, amount of Bi(III) and Nafion solution. CB-Nafion-glassy carbon electrode sensor linear response ranges from 6 to 1000 nM for selective and simultaneous determination. The detection limits were calculated to be 8 nM (0.9 µg l-1) for Cd(II) and 5 nM (1.0 µg l-1) for Pb(II) (S/N = 3) for the electrocatalytic determination under optimized conditions. The method was successfully used to the determination of actual samples and good recovery was achieved from different spiked samples. Low detection limits and good stability of the modified electrode demonstrated a promising perspective for the detection of trace metal ions in practical application.

Abstract
Dyes and lead (Pb2+) are toxic compounds that can contaminant water. In this study, magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles (NPs) prepared using clove, i.e. Syzygium aromaticum extract [clove extract (CE)] were used for methylene blue (MB) removal and Pb2+ ion sensing in aqueous solution. Maximum 90% MB removal was achieved using MgO NPs. The MB adsorption on MgO NPs surface followed second‐order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm. MB dye was adsorbed as a monolayer on the surface of MgO NPs with maximum adsorption capacity, 5555 mg g−1. MgO NPs were also able to selectively detect lead (Pb2+) in 1 nM–200 µM range with 24 µM (3σ) limit of detection. So, CE prepared MgO NPs are useful for MB dye adsorption and metal ion sensing applications.

Abstract
A sensitive fluorescent detection platform for Hg2+ was constructed based on mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) coated near-infrared (NIR)-emitting gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The thiolated mercaptosuccinic acid was employed as both reducing agent and surface coating ligand in a one-step synthesis of NIR-emitting AuNPs (MSA-AuNPs), which exhibited stable fluorescence with the maximum wavelength at 800nm and a wide range of excitation (220-650nm) with the maxima at 413nm. The MSA coated NIR-emitting AuNPs showed a rapid fluorescence quenching toward Hg2+ over other metal ions with a limit of detection (LOD, 3δ) as low as 4.8nM. The sensing mechanism investigation revealed that the AuNPs formed aggregation due to the "recognition" of Hg2+ from the MSA, and the resultant strong coupling interaction between Hg2+ and Au (I) to further quench the fluorescence of the AuNPs, which synergistically resulted in a highly sensitive and selective fluorescence response toward Hg2+. This proposed strategy was also demonstrated the possibility to be used for Hg2+ detection in water samples.
