Abstract
Owing to the adverse effects of oxytetracycline (OTC) residues on human health, it is of great importance to construct a rapid and effective strategy for OTC detection. Herein, we developed a dual-response fluorescence sensing platform based on molybdenum sulfide quantum dots (MoS2 QDs) and europium ions (Eu3+) for ratiometric detection of OTC. The MoS2 QDs, synthesized through an uncomplicated one-step hydrothermal approach, upon OTC integration into the MoS2 QDs/Eu3+ sensing system, exhibit a significant quenching of blue fluorescence due to the inner filter effect (IFE), simultaneously enhancing the distinct red emission of Eu3+ at 624 nm, a phenomenon attributed to the antenna effect (AE). This sensor demonstrates exceptional selectivity and sensitivity towards OTC, characterized by a linear detection range of 0.2-10 μM and a notably low detection limit of 2.21 nM. Furthermore, we achieved a visual semi-quantitative assessment of OTC through the discernible fluorescence color transition from blue to red under a 365 nm ultraviolet lamp. The practical applicability of this sensor was validated through the successful detection of OTC in milk and mutton samples, underscoring its potential as a robust tool for OTC monitoring in foodstuffs to safeguard food safety.

Abstract
As an excellent fluorescent material, cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) is rarely used for analytical purposes because the PNCs are unstable in polar solvents, especially water. Developing a new synthesis method to prepare water-stable PNCs makes it promising for the detection of analytes in aqueous solutions. Herein, by using the solubility difference of the precursors in different solvents, we successfully synthesized water-stable CsPbBr3 PNCs by a dual-supersaturated recrystallization method at room temperature. We also found that the fluorescence of the as-prepared CsPbBr3 PNCs could be quenched by some small organic molecules, such as folic acid (FA) and dopamine (DA). By using a chloride-induced anion exchange reaction method, the fluorescence emission peak of the CsPbBr3 PNCs could be tuned from 518 to 418 nm and the emission color changed from green to blue. The blue emission chloride-exchanged PNCs have a good selectivity for only FA and a good linear relationship is established between the fluorescence quenching rate of the PNCs and concentration of FA from 10.0 to 140.0 μM, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.9 μM. This work expanded the applications of PNCs in the field of analytical chemistry and also proposed a new strategy for improving selectivity by tuning the emission spectrum of a fluorescent probe.

Dual-state dual emission from precise chemically engineered bi-ligand MOF free from encapsulation and functionalization with self-calibration model for visual detection. Mikrochim Acta 2023; 191:62.

Abstract
Synthesis of dual-state dual emitting metal-organic frameworks (DSDE-MOFs) is uncommon and challenging. Additionally, DSDE-MOFs can fulfil the expanding need for on-site detection due to their stability and self-reference for a variety of non-analyte variables. In the present work, a novel intrinsic DSDE of chemically engineered bi-ligand Eu-based MOF (UoZ-1) was designed. The prepared UoZ-1 spherical particles were small-sized around 10-12 nm and displayed blue (425 nm) and red fluorescence (620 nm) at both states, dispersed in liquid and in solid state, when excited at 250 nm. A ratiometry platform was developed since the red emission was quenched by the addition of folic acid and the blue emission was almost remained unaffected. In the fluorometric ratiometric-mode, a dynamic linear range was recorded from 10 to 200 µM with LOD about 0.4 µM. Visual-based detection with assistance of smartphone was developed for quantification based on RGB analysis using Color Grab App. In the visual-mode, LOD as small as 2.3 µM was recorded. By utilizing the intrinsic dual-emitting UoZ-1, highly stable, recyclable, sensitive, and selective on-site visual detection of folic acid can be achieved. UoZ-1, a DSDE-MOF with no encapsulation or functionalization requirements, exhibits great potential for diverse applications.

Abstract
Four new isostructural rare earth metal-organic frameworks (RE-MOFs) were synthesized and full characterized, namely, {[(CH)2NH2]3[RE2(BTDBA)2(HCOO)]·5H2O·2DMF}n (H4BTDBA = (4',4'''-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4,7-diyl)bis([1,1'-biphenyl]-3,5-dicarboxylic acid); RE = Eu (JXUST-34), Gd (JXUST-35), Tb (JXUST-36), and Dy (JXUST-37)). The single-crystal structures analysis shows that JXUST-34-37 are chain-based three-dimensional structures. Importantly, JXUST-34 exhibits excellent water, organic solvents, and acid-base stability, which can be used as a fluorescence sensor for folic acid and Al3+ with detection limits of 0.02 mM and 0.05 μM, respectively. The presence of free [(CH)2NH2]+ cations in the channels can engage the proton carrier during proton conduction. JXUST-34-37 display good proton conductivity, and the conductivities vary with relative humidity and temperatures, among which JXUST-37 has the highest conductivity of 9.66 × 10-3 S·cm-1 at 60 °C and 98% RH. The magnetic studies show that the -ΔSm of JXUST-35 reaches 16.13 J kg-1 K-1 at 2 K and ΔH = 7 T. JXUST-34-37 show multifunctional properties of fluorescence sensing, high proton conductivity, and magnetic refrigeration, which provides a new clue for the development of fluorescent-responsive, magnetic-refrigerant, and proton-conductive RE-MOF materials.

Abstract
Auxotrophic primates like human beings rely on exogenous dietary vitamin B9 supplementation to meet their metabolic demands. Folates play a crucial role in nucleotide synthesis and DNA methylation. Maternal folate deficiency causes several pregnancy-related complications, perinatal defects, and early childhood cognitive impairments. New evidence suggests excess FA is a potential risk factor resulting in unfavourable genomic and epigenomic alterations. Thus, it is essential to revisit the need to consistently monitor maternal folate levels during pregnancy. Yet, to date, no point-of-care folate-monitoring biosensor is commercially available. Here, we critically appraise the advances in folate biosensors to understand the translational gaps in biosensor design. Further, our review sheds light on the potential role of folate biosensors in strengthening maternal, perinatal, and child healthcare.

Abstract
We proposed a rapid and ratiometric fluorescent detection method for hypochlorite by glutathione functionalized molybdenum disulfide quantum dots (G-MoS2 QDs). The G-MoS2 QDs were obtained through a hydrothermal method and the maximum fluorescence intensity was obtained at 430 nm under excitation of 360 nm. The fluorescence of G-MoS2 QDs at 430 nm can be weakened by curcumin through the inner filter effect, meanwhile the fluorescence of curcumin at 540 nm appeared. Hypochlorite can fast oxidize curcumin and weaken the inner filter effect, thus the fluorescence of curcumin at 540 nm decreased and the fluorescence of G-MoS2 QDs at 430 nm increased. This process takes only 30 s at room temperature. This is the rationale behind our rapid ratiometric fluorescent detection model for hypochlorite. Two linear detection ranges for hypochlorite are obtained with concentration from 1 to 20 μM and 20 to 30 μM, the limit of detection (LOD) was 11.5 nM. The standard spike recovery tests on milk and tap water samples showed satisfactory results, which extended the application of G-MoS2 QDs in the field of ratiometric fluorescence detection assays.

Abstract
The endocrine system's interference caused by environmental estrogens (EEs) residue in food is a topic of public concern. Here, we construct an aptasensor for the sensitive detection of EEs based on luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET). With MoS2 nanosheets acting as the energy acceptor and upconversion luminescence nanoparticles@gold nanoparticles (UCNPs@Au) as the luminescence donor, autofluorescence from food is prevented from interfering. The in-situ deposition of AuNPs not only induces local field enhancement to significantly increase the luminescence intensity of UCNPs, but also conduces to the modification of aptamer through Au-S bond. This aptasensor can respond to multiple estrogens thanks to the choice of a universal aptamer that recognizes phenolic hydroxyl group, and it offers the probability to screen unidentified phenolic estrogens. This method has a high sensitivity and a low limit of detection (LOD), and the satisfactory recovery rates acquired from water and milk samples confirmed its considerable application value.

Abstract
In this study, nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) from pine needles were obtained by one-step hydrothermal synthesis without any chemical reagents. The fluorescence quenching and absorbance enhancement of N-CDs occurred when Fe3+ and folic acid (FA) were added. Based on this, the dual-mode detection sensor by fluorescence and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry for the determination of Fe3+ and FA was established. Detected by the dual-mode detection sensor under the optimized condition, the linear range of Fe3+ was 0.1-540 μM and FA was 0.1-165 μM. At the same time, the two inputs "NOR" and "OR" logic gates are constructed successfully according to the dual-mode sensor signals. The proposed dual-mode detection sensor is simple, efficient and stable; it can be applied to determinate Fe3+ and FA in practical samples successfully and the results are satisfactory.

Abstract
The folic acid (FA) level in human body can be used as an indicator for body's normal physiological activities and offer insight into the growth and reproduction of the body's cells. But the abnormal level of FA can cause some diseases. Herein, we designed a simple and convenient approach to prepare fluorescent N-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) for the FA detection. These N-CDs have excellent hydrophilicity, high photostability, and outstanding biocompatibility, as well as excitation-independent emission behavior with typical excitation/emission peaks at 295 nm/412 nm. Upon the existence of FA, the fluorescence emission spectrum of N-CDs was significantly quenched through the synergy of static quenching mechanism and internal filtering effect (IFE). Under optimal conditions, the limit of detection was 28.0 nM (S/N = 3) within the FA concentration range of 0-200.0 μM. In addition, N-CDs were successfully employed to detect FA in real samples such as urine and fetal bovine serum (FBS), with a recovery rate of 99.6%-100.7% for quantitative addition. Furthermore, cell experiments confirmed the low toxicity and the cell imaging performance of these N-CDs, indicating that the obtained N-CDs could be served as a credible quantitative probe for FA analysis in the field of biosensing.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitro-aromatic compounds (NACs) are two classifications of environmental pollutants that have become a source of health concerns. As a result, there have been several efforts towards the development of analytical methods that are efficient and affordable that can sense these pollutants. In recent decades, a wide range of techniques has been developed for the detection of pollutants present in the environment. Among these different techniques, the use of semiconductor nanomaterials, also known as quantum dots, has continued to gain more attention in sensing because of the optical properties that make them useful in the identification and differentiation of pollutants in water bodies. Reported studies have shown great improvement in the sensing of these pollutants. This review article starts with an introduction on two types of organic pollutants, namely polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and nitro-aromatic explosives. This is then followed by different quantum dots used in sensing applications. Then, a detailed discussion on different groups of quantum dots, such as carbon-based quantum dots, binary and ternary quantum dots and quantum dot composites, and their application in the sensing of organic pollutants is presented. Different studies on the comparison of water-soluble quantum dots and organic-soluble quantum dots of a fluorescence sensing mechanism are reviewed. Then, different approaches on the improvement of their sensitivity and selectivity in addition to challenges associated with some of these approaches are also discussed. The review is concluded by looking at different mechanisms in the sensing of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and nitro-aromatic compounds.

Abstract
Carbon dots, the celebrated green material among the nanocarbon family, are blessed with several interesting features like biocompatibility, solubility, tunable luminescence, and so forth. Herein, carbon dots derived from Mint leaf extract (M-CDs) via a green method are exploited for versatile applications as a biosensor, reductant, and biomarker. M-CDs are applied for fluorimetric sensing of biologically relevant folic acid through quenching response originating from the inner filter effect, with a limit of detection of 280 nM. The carbon dots were highly selective toward folic acid in a collection of 16 biomolecules. The specificity of carbon dots toward folic acid is explained based on the interaction between the two. Along with sensing, herein, we project M-CDs as a green reducing agent by demonstrating the reduction of Fe(III) and noble metal nanoparticle synthesis from their salt solutions. The particles are found to be significantly non-cytotoxic, as evident from the MTT assay performed on primary H8 cells. The application of M-CDs in multicolor imaging is also illustrated using HeLa cells.

Abstract
Point-of-care testing (POCT) is a specific format of diagnostic testing that is conducted without accompanying infrastructure or sophisticated instrumentation. Traditionally, such rapid sample-to-answer assays provide inferior analytical performances to their laboratory counterparts when measuring cardiac biomarkers. Hence, their potentially broad applicability is somewhat bound by their inability to detect clinically relevant concentrations of cardiac troponin (cTn) in the early stages of myocardial injury. However, the continuous refinement of biorecognition elements, the optimization of detection techniques, and the fabrication of tailored fluid handling systems to manage the sensing process has stimulated the production of commercial assays that can support accelerated diagnostic pathways. This review will present the latest commercial POC assays and examine their impact on clinical decision-making. The individual elements that constitute POC assays will be explored, with an emphasis on aspects that contribute to economically feasible and highly sensitive assays. Furthermore, the prospect of POCT imparting a greater influence on early interventions for medium to high-risk individuals and the potential to re-shape the paradigm of cardiovascular risk assessments will be discussed.

Abstract
Folic acid (FA) is the natural form of water-soluble vitamins widely found in most plants and animal products and its deficiency leads to several human body abnormalities. The advancements of metal nanoclusters are highly increasing due to their molecule-like optical properties and attractive applications. Because of increasingly demand of noble metal nanoclusters as sensing templates, different synthesis methods have been developed for facile synthesis of noble metal nanoclusters. Herein, red-emitting fluorescent bovine serum albumin (BSA)-capped Au-Ag bimetallic NCs are facilely synthesized through green one-pot synthetic approach. The effect of silver on the fluorescence properties of Au NCs was investigated and it was found that introduction of silver can enhance the fluorescence intensity. The fluorescence intensity of the as-prepared Au-Ag nanoclusters gets quenched in the presence of folic acid in an aqueous medium and it was used as ultrasensitive sensing probe for FA detection. The developed Au-Ag NCs-based sensing probe shows linear response in the wide range of 0-100 μM and the detection limit is as low as 0.47 nM. Its applicability has also been confirmed successfully in real human serum, urine and FA tablet samples. Due to the high stability, sensitivity and selectivity, the developed bimetallic cluster sensing system is highly promising to be applied in the pharmaceutical and clinical laboratories.

Abstract
Folic acid (FA) is the synthetic surrogate of the essential B vitamin folate, alternatively named folacin, pteroylglutamic acid or vitamin B9. FA is an electroactive compound that helps our body to create and keep our cells healthy: it acts as the main character in a variety of synthetic biological reactions such as the synthesis of purines, pyrimidine (thus being indirectly implied in DNA synthesis), fixing and methylation of DNA. Therefore, physiological folate deficiency may be responsible for severe degenerative conditions, including neural tube defects in developing embryos and megaloblastic anaemia at any age. Moreover, being a water-soluble molecule, it is constantly lost and has to be reintegrated daily; for this reason, FA supplements and food fortification are, nowadays, extremely diffused and well-established practices. Consequently, accurate, reliable and precise analytical techniques are needed to exactly determine FA concentration in various media. Thus, the aim of this review is to report on research papers of the past 5 years (2016-2020) dealing with rapid and low-cost electrochemical determination of FA in food or biological fluid samples.

Abstract
In the present study, a proficient way for targeted bioimaging of folate receptor (FR)-positive cancer cells using free folic acid (FA)- and MoS2 QD-based nanoprobes is discussed along with its advantages over the preparation of orthodox direct FA-nanoprobe bioconjugates for the imaging. The water-soluble MoS2 QDs of size 4-5 nm with cysteine functionalization are synthesized by a simplistic bottom-up hydrothermal method. The as-prepared MoS2 QDs exhibit the blue emission with the highest emission intensity at 444 nm upon excitation of 370 nm. The MoS2 QDs are too sensitive toward FA to produce an effective and stable nanofiber structure through supramolecular interaction, which demonstrates ∼97% quenching of fluorescence. Moreover, the high selectivity and sensitivity of MoS2 QDs toward FA make the MoS2 QD-based nanoprobe an appropriate candidate for FA-targeted "turn-off" imaging probes for in vivo study of FA-pretreated FR-overexpressed cancer cells. It is obvious from the confocal microscopy images that the FA-pretreated B16F10 cancer cells show higher population of dimmed fluorescence compared to untreated cancer cells and HEK-293 normal cells. The flow cytometry study quantitatively reveals the significant difference of the geometric mean of fluorescence between FA-pretreated and untreated B16F10 cancer cells. Hence, these MoS2 QD-based nanoprobes can be applied as potential nanoprobes for the prediagnosis of cancer through targeted bioimaging.

Abstract
This work focused on the combination of CdTe and AgInS2 quantum dots in a dual-emission nanoprobe for the simultaneous determination of folic acid and Fe(II) in pharmaceutical formulations. The surface chemistry of the used QDs was amended with suitable capping ligands to obtain appropriate reactivity in terms of selectivity and sensitivity towards the target analytes. The implementation of PL-based sensing schemes combining multiple QDs of different nature, excited at the same wavelength and emitting at different ones, allowed to obtain a specific analyte-response profile. The first-order fluorescence data obtained from the whole emission spectra of the CdTe/AgInS2 combined nanoprobe upon interaction with folic acid and Fe(II) were processed by using chemometric tools, namely partial least-squares (PLS) and artificial neural network (ANN). This enabled to circumvent the selectivity issues commonly associated with the use of QDs prone to indiscriminate interaction with multiple species, which impair reliable and accurate quantification in complex matrices samples. ANN demonstrated to be the most efficient chemometric model for the simultaneous determination of both analytes in binary mixtures and pharmaceutical formulations due to the non-linear relationship between analyte concentration and fluorescence data that it could handle. The R2P and SEP% obtained for both analytes quantification in pharmaceutical formulations through ANN modelling ranged from 0.92 to 0.99 and 5.7-9.1%, respectively. The obtained results revealed that the developed approach is able to quantify, with high reliability and accuracy, more than one analyte in complex mixtures and real samples with pharmaceutical interest.
