Abstract
Conventional plate electrodes were commonly used in electrochemical flow injection analysis and only part of molecules diffused to the plane of electrodes could be detected, which would limit the performance of electrochemical detection. In this study, a low-cost native stainless steel wire mesh (SSWM) electrode was integrated into a 3D-printed device for electrochemical flow injection analysis with a pass-through mode, which is different compared with previous flow-through mode. This strategy was applied for sensitive analysis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) released from cells. Under the optimal conditions (the applied potentials, the flow rate and the sample volume), the device exhibits high sensitivity toward H2O2. Linear relationships could be achieved between electrochemical responses and the concentration of H2O2 ranging from 1 nM to 1 mM. The excellent analytical performance of the SSWM-based device could be attributed to the pass-through mode based on the mesh microstructure and intrinsic catalytic properties for H2O2 by stainless steel. This approach could be further successfully extended for screening of H2O2 released from HeLa cells with electrochemical responses linear to the number of cells in a range of 3 - 1.35 × 104 cells with an injection volume of 30 μL. This study revealed the potential of mesh electrodes in electrochemical flow injection analysis for cellular function and pathology and its possible extension in cell counting and on-line analysis.

Abstract
With the rapid development of fluorescent nanoparticles (FNPs), such as CDs, QDs, and MOFs, the construction of FNP-based probes has played a key role in improving chemical sensors. Ratiometric fluorescent probes exhibit distinct advantages, such as resistance to environmental interference and achieving visualization. Thus, FNP-based dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent probes (DRFPs) have rapidly developed in the field of metal ion and small molecule detection in the past few years. In this review, firstly we introduce the fluorescence sensing mechanisms; then, we focus on the strategies for the fabrication of DRFPs, including hybrid FNPs, single FNPs with intrinsic dual emission and target-induced new emission, and DRFPs based on auxiliary nanoparticles. In the section on hybrid FNPs, methods to assemble two types of FNPs, such as chemical bonding, electrostatic interaction, core satellite or core-shell structures, coordination, and encapsulation, are introduced. In the section on single FNPs with intrinsic dual emission, methods for the design of dual-emission CDs, QDs, and MOFs are discussed. Regarding target-induced new emission, sensitization, coordination, hydrogen bonding, and chemical reaction induced new emissions are discussed. Furthermore, in the section on DRFPs based on auxiliary nanoparticles, auxiliary nanomaterials with the inner filter effect and enzyme mimicking activity are discussed. Finally, the existing challenges and an outlook on the future of DRFP are presented. We sincerely hope that this review will contribute to the quick understanding and exploration of DRFPs by researchers.

Abstract
Excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from endogenous and exogenous pathways is linked to oxidative stress and various diseases. Although a variety of ROS probes have been developed, their multistep synthesis strategies and complicated instrumental operating procedures limit their frequent use. In this work, different shaped silver nanostructures including nanoparticles, nanoprisms, and nanocubes were utilized to demonstrate simple spectroscopic and colorimetric techniques for sensitive ROS detection. The nanostructures displayed different sensing behaviours recorded via plasmon tuning with morphological changes upon exposure to ROS. Among the nanostructures, silver nanocubes were found to be extremely efficient in recognising a particular ROS, namely hypochlorite ions. The detection limits of this ROS were calculated to be 23.76 nM, 85.71 nM, and 36.37 nM for silver nanoparticles, nanoprisms, and nanocubes, respectively. A time-dependent microscopic examination was carried out and revealed that the presence of hypochlorite ions deteriorates structural morphologies. The formation of highly reactive chlorite, chlorate, and chloride ions in hypochlorite ion solution was ascribed to the significant spectroscopic and microscopic changes in all the nanostructures. The attenuation of plasmonic peaks and etching of nanostructures by ROS were supported by the increment of the oxidation state of silver. In addition, silver nanocubes were successfully applied to recognize ROS in Spinacia oleracea and real water samples. The results confirm the potentiality of silver nanostructures for sensitive detection of ROS in biological and environmental systems.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanoparticles are an emerging tool for developing label-free multicolorimetric sensors for biosensing and chemosensing applications. The color absorbed by nanoparticles from visible light is influenced by their size, shape, orientation, and interparticle distance. Differently sized and shaped gold and silver nanoparticles exhibit a wide range of colors, aiding in the development of label-free sensors. Etching is the process of oxidizing nanoparticles, which alters their aspect ratio, shape, plasmonic peak, and outward appearance. It is typically used to create sensitive sensing platforms. Through etching, analytes could be detected in a simple, sensitive, and selective manner. The multicolor readout of nanoparticle etching-based multicolorimetric sensors can overcome the limitations of conventional colorimetric assays and improve the accuracy of visual inspection. This review discusses different approaches for target sensing using nanoparticle etching strategies like direct etching, enzyme-mediated etching, chemical reaction-driven etching, and anti-etching-based sensors and their mechanisms. In the future, etching strategies could be modified into portable sensing devices to detect a variety of analytes, which will aid in the development of on-time, in situ, and point-of-care sensing systems.

Abstract
Monitoring the early stage of atherosclerosis (AS) without plaque formation is of great significance. Herein, we developed a metal organic framework (MOF)-based fluorescence nanoprobe to analyze the progression of AS by assessing the levels of protein phosphorylation and glucose in blood and tissue. The probe was prepared by post-modification of the MOF with iodine (I3 - )-rhodamine B (RhB) associate, which realizes the specific recognition of target object through the metal joint ZrIV and I3 - -RhB, respectively. We investigated different stages of target object changes in the early non-plaque stage of AS in blood. It was found that the levels of phosphate and glucose in the blood were higher than those of the normal mice. The results of two-photon images showed that early AS mice had higher levels of protein phosphorylation and glucose than that of the normal mice. The present study provides a suitable fluorescence tool for further revealing the pathogenesis and progression of AS.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disease with an alarming global prevalence, is associated with several serious health threats, including cardiovascular diseases. Current diabetes treatments have several limitations and disadvantages, creating the need for new effective formulations to combat this disease and its associated complications. This motivated the development of therapeutic strategies to overcome some of these limitations, such as low therapeutic drug bioavailability or poor compliance of patients with current therapeutic methodologies. Taking advantage of silica nanoparticle characteristics such as tuneable particle and pore size, surface chemistry and biocompatibility, silica-based nanocarriers have been developed with the potential to treat diabetes and regulate blood glucose concentration. This review discusses the main topics in the field, such as oral administration of insulin, glucose-responsive devices and innovative administration routes.

Abstract
Ratiometric fluorescent sensors are widely used in biological sensing and immunoassays due to their high sensitivity detection of analytes. The high-ratio value of fluorescence can increase the sensitivity of the fluorescence sensor; in addition, the directional emission can improve the efficiency of light collection and improve the effective use of radiation power. In previous studies, low fluorescence ratios and low directional emission efficiency have restricted the application of ratio fluorescence sensors. Based on the above constraints, this paper proposes an asymmetric hexagonal microcavity structure. By destroying the complete rotational symmetry of the hexagon structure, it achieves high fluorescence ratios and high-efficiency directional emission in the far-field range in the near-infrared wavelength range, which is of significance for the development of high sensitivity fluorescence sensors.

Abstract
A plasmon-enhanced fluorimetric and colorimetric dual sensor was designed to detect mancozeb based on fluorescein (as a fluorimetric reporter) and AgNPRs (as a fluorescence enhancer and colorimetric reporter). The sensing mechanism was based on the shape transformation of AgNPRs due to etching and anti-etching effect of S2O32- and mancozeb. We observed that AgNPRs enhanced the fluorescence intensity of fluorescein around 4-fold. By adding S2O32-, the AgNPR florescence enhancement effect decreased, also SPR peak of AgNPRs blue-shifted and the solution color altered from blue to purple. The fluorescein fluorescence intensity and AgNPR's SPR peak position restored in the presence of mancozeb due to its protecting effect on AgNPRs. The restored fluorescence intensity and the SPR wavelength shift were proportional to the mancozeb concentration at the range of 0.005-0.1 and 0.005-0.075 mg/L, respectively. The developed sensor was successfully applied to measure mancozeb in fruit juice samples.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence signal amplification (CLSA) is of huge interest because of its sensitive detection in various applications such as food analysis, biomedical diagnosis and environmental monitoring. Due to this, there is a manifold attention to develop rapidly prototyped and miniaturized devices for CLSA. In this context, herein, a novel CLSA approach is demonstrated on a 3D printed microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μPADs), fabricated using Fused deposition modeling (FDM) printing technology. Influence of working temperature, ranging 30 °C-110 °C, on CL signal generation from well-established Luminol/Co+2 - H2O2 reaction was analyzed using a screen-printed flexible heater onto the 3D printed reaction platform. A smartphone-based capturing/detection system provided the amenability for a point-of-care testing system. For the first time, strong and stable CLSA was found with about 255% ± 5% increase in its signal intensity without using any additional external enhancers. The on-site working temperature was directly in proportional to the intensity of CL signal generated from Luminol/Co+2 - H2O2 reaction under optimum conditions, wherein the device had a wide linear range from 50 nM to 1 μM with a detection limit of 35 nM for H2O2 detection. The reliability of the developed amplification method was tested for practicability to detect the concentration of H2O2 in milk as real sample analysis. Overall, such CLSA mechanism in miniaturized μPADs will have strong potential for multiple CL based detection and monitoring application.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2021; 262:120104.

Abstract
In this study, we designed a dual colorimetric and fluorometric sensor by using nitrogen and phosphor doped carbon dots (N, P-CDs) and Ag nanoprisms (AgNPrs) to detect 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP). For this purpose, we applied the AgNPrs/I- mixture to establish a shape transformation based colorimetric method for the detection of 6-MP. The assay mechanism of colorimetric method was based on etching and protecting effect of I- and 6-MP on the AgNPrs. In the presence of I-, as an etching agent, the solution color altered from blue to purple and the position of AgNPrs' local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peak shifted to the blue wavelengths. This phenomenon was assigned to the morphological change of AgNPrs. In the presence of 6-MP, AgNPrs were protected from etching by I-, so the LSPR peak position and solution color of AgNPrs remained unchangeable. Furthermore, the fluorescence intensity of N, P-CDs decreased with adding AgNPrs/I- due to the spectral overlap between etched AgNPrs and N, P-CDs. The CDs' quenched fluorescence was restored in the presence of 6-MP, as a result of the protecting effect of 6-MP on the AgNPrs. These facts have been applied to develop a dual sensor for the determination of 6-MP at the range of 10-500 nM and 30-500 nM by colorimetric and fluorometric detection methods. The detection limits were obtained 10 and 4 nM for fluorometric and colorimetric methods, respectively. The developed sensor was utilized for dual signal analysis of 6-MP in human serum samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract
SARS-COV-2 is a novel coronavirus discovered in Wuhan in December 30, 2019, and is a family of SARS-COV (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus), that is, coronavirus family. After infection with SARS-COV-2, patients often experience fever, cough, gas prostration, dyspnea and other symptoms, which can lead to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), kidney failure and even death. The SARS-COV-2 virus is particularly infectious and has led to a global infection crisis, with an explosion in the number of infections. Therefore, rapid and accurate detection of the virus plays a vital role. At present, many detection methods are limited in their wide application due to their defects such as high preparation cost, poor stability and complex operation process. Moreover, some methods need to be operated by professional medical staff, which can easily lead to infection. In order to overcome these problems, a Surface molecular imprinting technology (SM-MIT) is proposed for the first time to detect SARS-COV-2 virus. For this SM-MIT method, this review provides detailed detection principles and steps. In addition, this method not only has the advantages of low cost, high stability and good specificity, but also can detect whether it is infected at designated points. Therefore, we think SM-MIT may have great potential in the detection of SARS-COV-2 virus.

Abstract
Herein, an innovative ratiometric fluorescence (FL) aptasensor was successfully fabricated for the accurate analysis of zearalenone (ZEN) in corn and barley flour. The ZEN aptamer-modified nitrogen doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs-apt) and silica sphere-encapsulated cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs@SiO2) were directly mixed and applied as ratiometric probes. In the absence of ZEN, mitoxantrone (MTX), which was innovatively introduced as quencher, was captured by NGQDs-apt and its inner filter effect (IFE) on CdTe QDs@SiO2 was inhibited. When ZEN existed, MTX separated from NGQDs-apt and re-dispersed around CdTe QDs@SiO2 owing to the competitive binding of ZEN with its aptamer. As the IFE of free MTX on CdTe QDs@SiO2 recovering, the FL intensity of CdTe QDs@SiO2 was quenched, while the FL intensity of NGQDs-apt was nearly invariant. On this basis, a ratiometric FL aptasensor for ZEN was fabricated, which exhibited outstanding detection performances with a desirable detection limit of 0.32 pg mL-1.

Abstract
In this paper, we report the synthesis of MnCO3-Au hybrid microspheres and their application on the electrochemical biosensing of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) based on the immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb). The characterization of MnCO3-Au microspheres revealed that an abundance of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) has been absorbed on the surface of the spherical MnCO3 by the electrostatic assembly. The combined unique properties of MnCO3-Au microspheres are beneficial for the realization of the direct electron transfer of Hb. Hb immobilized on the microspheres maintained its biological activity, showing a surface-controlled process with the heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k s) of 2.63 s-1. The fabricated biosensor displayed an excellent performance for the electrocatalytic reduction of H2O2. The linear range for the determination of H2O2 was from 0.06-40.0 μM with a detection limit of 0.015 µM (S/N = 3). The biosensor also exhibited high selectivity, good repeatability and long-term stability, which offers great potential for H2O2 detection in real sample analysis.

Abstract
Detection of hydrogen peroxide is of significant importance for biological assays, and fluorescence methods are intensively reported for this purpose. Due to the highly oxidative property of this species, usually fluorescence quenching is obtained during the interactions and decreased signals are rendered. In this report, this oxidative property was adopted for an increased fluorescence signaling. Photoluminescent silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) were synthesized with polyethyleneimine as the stabilizer. This fluorescence from these nanoclusters could be quenched by reduced glutathione (GSH) through an interaction from its thiol group. As an oxidant, hydrogen peroxide converted GSH into an oxidized form (GSSG) with an elimination of the free thiols, and inhibited the quenching. This interaction presented an increased response toward hydrogen peroxide in the range of 0.1-20 μM with a detection limit of 35 nM. The scheme was further coupled with glucose oxidase for a glucose analysis down to 0.11 μM. This method was selective and was successfully applied for glucose measurement in human serum samples.

Abstract
The widespread industrial use of H2O2 has provoked great interest in the development of new and more efficient materials for its detection. Enzymatic electrochemical sensors have drawn particular attention, primarily because of their excellent selectivity. However, their high cost, instability, complex immobilization, and inherent tendency toward denaturation of the enzyme significantly limit their practical usefulness. Inspired by the powerful proton-catalyzed H2O2 reduction mechanism of peroxidases, we have developed a well-defined and densely functionalized carboxylic graphene derivative (graphene acid, GA) that serves as a proton source and conductive electrode for binding and detecting H2O2. An unprecedented H2O2 sensitivity of 525 μA cm-2 mM-1 is achieved by optimizing the balance between the carboxyl group content and scaffold conductivity of GA. Importantly, the GA sensor greatly outperforms all reported carbon-based H2O2 sensors and is superior to enzymatic ones because of its simple immobilization, low cost, and uncompromised sensitivity even after continuous operation for 7 days. In addition, GA-based sensing electrodes remain highly selective in the presence of interferents such as ascorbic acid, paracetamol, and glucose, as well as complex matrices such as milk. GA-based sensors thus have considerable potential for use in practical industrial sensing technologies.

Abstract
Surface plasmon extinction (SPE) spectra of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) are sensitive indicators of their composition, size, shape, interparticle interactions, and of the dielectric constant of their ambient. In this study, rapid changes in SPE spectra of Ag NPs suggesting variations in NP size and concentration were detected after addition of aged tetrahydrofuran (THF). Using time-dependent UV/vis spectroscopy combined with factor analysis, transmission electron microscopy imaging, selected-area electron diffraction, and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, we observed that an over-limit amount of aged THF fully dissolved Ag NPs with no plasmon recovery. By contrast, an under-limit amount led to incomplete dissolution of Ag NPs and, after reaching the turnover point, to spontaneous recrystallization on residual Ag nuclei, as demonstrated by the SPE band intensity recovery to the original or even higher values. The newly formed Ag NPs were isometric, and their diameter was dependent on the added amount of THF. Furthermore, both Ag NP dissolution and recrystallization were caused by THF peroxides and their reduction products. Therefore, the dissolution of Ag NPs and the resulting hydrosol bleaching may be used as an indicator of the presence of peroxides in THF. Moreover, the reaction of aged THF with Ag NPs can be employed as a tool for tuning the size of Ag NPs in hydrosols.
