ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 348:123859. [PMID: 38537802 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123859] [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: 02/12/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/23/2024] [Indexed: 04/21/2024]
Abstract
Mercury toxicity and its environmental impact are significant concerns for public health and environmental protection. Therefore, the development of effective, rapid, and reliable detection methods for trace levels of Hg2+ is crucial. Herein, a cyanine dye bearing a carbonothioate group is reported as a potential NIR fluorescent probe for Hg2+ detection. The spectral properties of the free probe have been characterized by the presence and absence of a series of analytes. The addition of Hg2+ leads to significant changes in the fluorescence signal with distinct red coloration compared to other competing analytes, indicating that the probe is highly selective for Hg2+. The fluorescence quantum yield increases from 0.073 to 0.315. The detection limit is 0.10 μM, indicating the high sensitivity of the probe to low Hg2+ levels. The most prominent sensing features of the probe include NIR fluorescence, low cytotoxicity, ratiometric fluorescence response, and fast response compared to most of the currently available fluorescent probes. In addition, the probe can detect Hg2+ in actual samples such as foodstuff, soil, water, and live cells. Bioimaging studies have demonstrated that the present probe is highly efficient in targeting mitochondria and possesses good imaging abilities for detecting Hg2+ in cells. Therefore, these results suggest that it can be proposed as a powerful NIR fluorescent probe for the highly sensitive detection of Hg2+.

Abstract
The pollution caused by mercury ions (Hg2+) poses a potential threat to public health. Therefore, monitoring Hg2+ concentration in the environment is necessary and significant. In this work, a naphthalimide functionalized fluoran dye NAF has been prepared, which shows a new red-shift in emission at 550 nm with the maximum intensity in a mixture of water-CH3CN (v/v = 7/3) due to aggregating induced emission (AIE) effect. Meanwhile, NAF can be employed as a Hg2+ ions sensor, which displays a selective and sensitive response to Hg2+ ions by the reduced fluorescence of naphthalimide fluorophore and increased fluorescence of fluoran group, respectively, showing ratiometric fluorescence signal changes with more than 65-fold emission intensity ratio increase and naked eyes visible color change. In addition, the response time is fast (within 1 min) and the sensing can be conducted in a wide pH range (4.0-9.0). Moreover, the detection limit has been evaluated to be 5.5 nM. The sensing mechanism may be attributed to the formation of a π-extended conjugated system due to the Hg2+ ions-induced conversion of spironolactone to the ring-opened form, partially accompanied by the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process. Significantly, NAF exhibits suitable cytotoxicity to living HeLa cells, which allows it to be utilized for ratiometric imaging of Hg2+ ions assisted by confocal fluorescence imaging.

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
Metal ions and pesticides are extensively used in many industries and agriculture. However, they cause significant environmental pollution and various adverse health effects. Therefore, the development of sensitive and selective techniques to detect them is necessary for human health and the ecosystem. In this paper, we report a novel red-emitting fluorescence probe with a large Stokes shift (∼220 nm) based on rhodamine and isophorone units. The probe shows a ratiometric fluorescence response toward Hg2+ ions; however, Cu2+ ions quench the red fluorescence signal. The decomposition of the probe-Cu2+ complex allows detection of Thiram followed by recovery of the red fluorescence signal of the probe. In addition, the probe shows a good linear response to Hg2+, Cu2+, and Thiram, with detection limits of 122.0 nM, 29.0 nM, and 72.0 nM, respectively. The practical applicability of the probe has been successfully tested in real samples. Moreover, smartphone detection and light-responsive capsule fabrication have been established, for easy and quick detection. The probe possesses very low cytotoxicity and allows visualization of Hg2+ and Cu2+ ions in HeLa cells. Therefore, the present probe is expected to be an effective tool assisting in easy, quick, and reliable detection of Thiram, Hg2+, and Cu2+ ions.

Abstract
Hg2+ poses a great threat to human health and the environment due to its bioaccumulation and permanent damage. Herein, a reversible CHEF-based near-infrared fluorescent probe 2-(3-((E)-4-((E)-4-(diethylamino)-2- hydroxybenzylidene)amino)styryl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-ylidene)propanedinitrile (DHEY) capable of specifically recognizing Hg2+ was constructed. DHEY exhibits advantages of large Stokes shift (157 nm), excellent selectivity, high sensitivity (LOD = 3.2 μg/L), and fast response efficiency (<3 min). Interestingly, DHEY can also realize rapid and effective detection of Hg2+ after being recycled 7 times. The successful recovery of trace Hg2+ in different environmental water samples fully demonstrates the potential of DHEY for actual applications. In particular, DHEY enables real-time observation of the distribution and translocation pattern of exogenous Hg2+ in HeLa cells and zebrafish. This work provides important theoretical support for investigating the fate of heavy metal ions in the environment using fluorescence techniques.

Abstract
Metal ions are of significance in various pathological and physiological processes. As such, it is crucial to monitor their levels in organisms. Two-photon (TP) and near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging has been utilized to monitor metal ions because of minimal background interference, deeper tissue depth penetration, lower tissue self-absorption, and reduced photodamage. In this review, we briefly summarize recent progress from 2020 to 2022 of TP/NIR organic fluorescent probes and inorganic sensors in the detection of metal ions. Additionally, we present an outlook for the development of TP/NIR probes for bio-imaging, diagnosis of diseases, imaging-guided therapy, and activatable phototherapy.

Abstract
Detection of highly toxic thiophenols in biological or environmental systems is of great importance. Therefore, fast, reliable, and sensitive probes are needed to detect thiophenols. Herein, a novel triphenylamine conjugated dicyanoisophorone-based near infrared fluorescence probe is reported to determine trace thiophenol (PhSH) levels. The probe demonstrates a distinct "turn-on" fluorescence response to thiophenol among the tested analytes and its quantum yield (Φ) increases from 0.011 to 0.142. It has low cytotoxicity with cell viability of 90-100% up to 10.0 μM of the probe, a strong anti-interference capability, a large Stokes shift (150 nm), and a fast response time (<1 min). In addition, the probe exhibits a good linear response to PhSH over the range from 0 to 15.0 μM with a detection limit of 32.3 nM (R2 = 0.9978). The detection process is also confirmed through HPLC. The practical applicability of the probe is proved by a smartphone platform, TLC kit, plant tissue imaging, soil assay, tap, and lake water analysis with good recovery values (92.3-117%), and concentration-dependent live cell bioimaging PhSH from 5.0 to 15.0 μM. Therefore, the present probe is a robust candidate for monitoring PhSH levels in biological and environmental systems.

Abstract
AbstractHeavy metal ion pollution is always a serious problem worldwide. Therefore, monitoring heavy metal ions in environmental water is a crucial and difficult step to ensure the safety of people and the environment. A mercury ion (Hg2+) fluorescence probe with excellent sensitivity and selectivity is described here. The functionalized graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (T/G-C3N4) fluorescence probe was fabricated using melamine as a precursor by the pyrolysis technique, followed by a rapid KOH heat treatment method for 2 min. The chemical structure and morphology of the T/G-C3N4 probe were characterized using multiple analytical techniques including UV–Vis, SEM, XPS, XRD, and fluorometer spectroscopy. Geometry optimization of T/G-C3N4 as a modified probe was performed to assess its stability and interaction ability with Hg(II) via using the density function approach. The T/G-C3N4 probe showed a linear response based on quenching over the range 0–1.25 × 103 nM Hg(II); the detection limit was 27 nM. The remarkable sensitivity of T/G-C3N4 towards the Hg2+ ions was explained by the intense coordination and fast chelation kinetics of Hg2+ with the NH2, CN, C=N, and OH groups of T/G-C3N4 nanoprobe. The T/G-C3N4 probe demonstrates exceptional selectivity for Hg2+ ions among other metal ions including (Na+, Ag+, Mg2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cd2+, K+, Ca2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, Mn2+ and Hg2+) and over a broad pH range (6–10), together with remarkable long-term fluorescence stability in water (> 30 days) and minimal toxicity. T/G-C3N4 was used to detect and quantify Hg2+ ions in tuna and mackerel fish and the results compared to ICP-AES. The results obtained offer a new simple and green technique for the design of multifunctional fluorescent probe appropriate for environmental applications.

Abstract
The determination of mercuric ions (Hg2+) in environmental and biological samples has attracted the attention of researchers lately. In the present work, a novel turn-on Hg2+ fluorescent probe utilizing a rhodamine derivative had been constructed and prepared. The probe could highly sensitively and selectively sense Hg2+. In the presence of excessive Hg2+, the probe displayed about 52-fold fluorescence enhancement in 50% H2O/CH3CH2OH (pH, 7.24). In the meantime, the colorless solution of the probe turned pink upon adding Hg2+. Upon adding mercuric ions, the probe interacted with Hg2+ and formed a 1:1 coordination complex, which had been the basis for recognizing Hg2+. The probe displayed reversible dual colorimetric and fluorescence sensing of Hg2+ because rhodamine's spirolactam ring opened upon adding Hg2+. The analytical performances of the probe for sensing Hg2+ were also studied. When the Hg2+ concentration was altered in the range of 8.0 × 10-8 to 1.0 × 10-5 mol L-1, the fluorescence intensity showed an excellent linear correlation with Hg2+ concentration. A detection limit of 3.0 × 10-8 mol L-1 had been achieved. Moreover, Hg2+ in the water environment and A549 cells could be successfully sensed by the proposed probe.
