Abstract
Multimodal sensing platforms may offer reliable, fast results, but it is still challenging to incorporate biosensors with high discriminating ability in complex biological samples. Herein, we established a highly sensitive dual colorimetric/electrochemical monitoring approach for the detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) utilizing Cu-doped In-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu/In-MOFs) combined with a versatile color selector software-based smartphone imaging device. H2S can result in the enhancement of the electrochemical signal because of the electroactive substance copper sulfide (CuxS), the decrease of the colorimetric signal of the characteristic absorption response caused by the strong coordination effect on Cu/In-MOFs, and the obvious changes of red-green-blue (RGB) values of images acquired via an intelligent smartphone. Attractively, the Cu/In-MOFs-based multimodal detection guarantees precise and sensitive detection of H2S with triple-signal detection limits of 0.096 μM (electrochemical signals), 0.098 μM (colorimetric signals), and 0.099 μM (smartphone signals) and an outstanding linear response. This analytical toolkit provides an idea for fabricating a robust, sensitive, tolerant matrix and reliable sensing platform for rapidly monitoring H2S in clinical disease diagnosis and visual supervision.

Synergistic synthesis of gold nanoflowers as upconversion near-infrared nanoprobe energy acceptor and recognition unit for improved hydrogen sulfide sensing. Talanta 2024; 273:125908. [PMID: 38503119 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.125908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective upconversion near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence and colorimetric dual readout hydrogen sulfide (H2S) nanoprobe was constructed based on the excellent NIR fluorescence emission performance of upconversion nanomaterials (UCNPs), the specific recognition effect of synergistically synthesized gold nanoflowers (trypsin-stabled AuNFs (Try-AuNFs)) and the effective NIR fluorescence quenching capability. In this assay, the sensing strategy included three processes. First of all, the synthesized UCNPs can emit 803 nm NIR fluorescence when they were excited by 980 nm excitation light. Secondly, as a result of the principle of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), Try-AuNFs can effectively quench the NIR fluorescence of UCNPs at 803 nm, which can effectively improve the signal-to-background ratio of nanoprobes, thereby improving the sensitivity of the probes. Thirdly, in the presence of H2S, the Try protective layer on the surface of Try-AuNFs was specifically penetrated, which will subsequently cleave Try-AuNFs via the strong S-Au bond. As such, the NIR fluorescence of UCNPs will be restored, achieving high selectivity and sensitivity detection of H2S. Under optimized conditions, the linear response range of H2S was 0.1-300 μM, and the detection limit was 53 nM. It is worth noting that the Try on the surface of Try-AuNFs via the synergistic effect can increase the steric hindrance of the probe, and this can effectively prevent the interaction between the probe with biothiols (cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy)) and other natural amino acids (non-thiol-containing) with resultant in the high selectivity regarding the detection of H2S in human serum, which is unlikely to be achieved by AuNFs synthesized by the gold seed method (Se-AuNFs). This work not only provided a new type of UCNPs fluorescence quencher and recognition unit, but also exemplified that the use of the physical properties (steric hindrance) of protein ligands on the surface of nanoflowers can improve the specificity of the probe. This will provide new ideas for the design of other nanoprobes.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an environmental pollutant, and also the major released gas during the decay of meat products. To protect the ecological environment and human health, the establishment of a swift, convenient, and accurate detection method for H2S becomes essential. However, existing methods are still suffering from complex synthesis, high toxicity, poor visualization, and high detection limit. Herein, Au NCs-CDs nanocomposite-based test paper and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film are combined with a smartphone for sensitive and specific sulfide visualized monitoring. After the addition of sulfide, the fluorescence color changes from orange to green, achieving a quantitative linearity towards sulfide from 5 nM to 30 μM, with a low detection limit of 4.20 nM. The proposed method shows practicability in natural water samples. Furthermore, distinct fluorescence color variation is shown towards H2S originating from spoiled meat, showing the potential application prospect of Au NCs-CDs-PVA film as a meat freshness detector.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensing platform has been designed by combining electrocatalysis-assisted H2S amplification with a chemical reaction-mediated electrochemical signal-boosted system for H2S detection based on Cu-Mn(OH)2 hexagonal nanorings. The signal amplification is initiated by an electrocatalysis reaction that can grasp specific H2S substrates and further highly amplify electrochemical signals. Then, the unique chemical reaction is powered by copper ion and generates a large amount of electroactive CuxS products on the electrode surface, thus achieving the multiple amplification of H2S detection. Finally, the Cu-Mn(OH)2 loaded with plenty of electroactive CuxS can be captured on the electrode for further improving the electrochemical signal thus obtaining ultra-high sensitive determination of H2S. The established electrochemical biosensing platform displays a wide analytical range of 0.1 μM to 265 μM with a low detection limit of 0.096 μM. The satisfactory selectivity allows the electrochemical sensor to distinguish H2S from other interfering substances without any complicated pretreatment, even in complex tumor cell samples. Thus, our designed electrocatalysis-assisted amplification strategy offers a powerful analysis toolkit for the early determination of H2S-related disease in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Cyanine dye-based new amphiphilic compound NIR-Amp has been synthesised. NIR-Amp was embedded with phospholipids DOPC and DPPC to form liposomes based nanoscale chemical sensors NIR-Lip1 and NIR-Lip2. Here, two different phospholipids were used to demonstrate the influence of lipid structure, composition and fluidity on sensing of nanosensors. Both the probes show NIR absorption maximum at 790 nm and emission maximum at 815 nm. H2 S-triggered thiolation resulted a remarkable change in color from green to pale yellow. A decrease in UV-Vis absorption and emission in the NIR region was observed only with H2 S. NIR-Lip1 and NIR-Lip2 are highly selective for H2 S with a LOD of 0.57 μM and 1.24 μM, respectively. It was observed that in a solid-like gel state, NIR-Lip1 is slightly more sensitive towards H2 S than fluid-like NIR-Lip2. The H2 S sensing mechanism was confirmed by ESI-mass and infrared (IR) spectroscopic analysis. Based on the high sensitivity and selectivity, NIR-Lip1 was employed to detect H2 S in vegetable samples. Further, the probes are found to be non-toxic and established for H2 S fluorescence imaging in live cells.

Redox ferrocenylseleno compounds modulate longitudinal and transverse relaxation times of FNPs-Gd MRI contrast agents for multimodal imaging and photo-Fenton therapy. Acta Biomater 2023; 164:496-510. [PMID: 37054962 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.04.006] [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: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2023] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
Developing a feasible way to feature longitudinal (T1) and transverse (T2) relaxation performance of contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is important in cancer diagnosis and therapy. Improved accessibility to water molecule is essential for accelerating the relaxation rate of water protons around the contrast agents. Ferrocenyl compounds have reversible redox property for modulating the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of assemblies. Thus, they could be the candidates that can change water accessibility to the contrast agent surface. Herein, we incorporated ferrocenylseleno compound (FcSe) with Gd3+-based paramagnetic UCNPs, to obtain FNPs-Gd nanocomposites using T1-T2 MR/UCL trimodal imaging and simultaneous photo-Fenton therapy. When the surface of NaGdF4:Yb,Tm UNCPs was ligated by FcSe, the hydrogen bonding between hydrophilic selenium and surrounding water molecules accelerated their proton exchange to initially endow FNPs-Gd with high r1 relaxivity. Then, hydrogen nuclei from FcSe disrupted the homogeneity of the magnetic field around the water molecules. This facilitated T2 relaxation and resulted in enhanced r2 relaxivity. Notably, upon the near-infrared light-promoted Fenton-like reaction in the tumor microenvironment, hydrophobic ferrocene(II) of FcSe was oxidized into hydrophilic ferrocenium(III), which further increased the relaxation rate of water protons to obtain r1 = 1.90±0.12 mM-1 s-1 and r2 = 12.80±0.60 mM-1 s-1. With an ideal relaxivity ratio (r2/r1) of 6.74, FNPs-Gd exhibited high contrast potential of T1-T2 dual-mode MRI in vitro and in vivo. This work confirms that ferrocene and selenium are effective boosters that enhance the T1-T2 relaxivities of MRI contrast agents, which could provide a new strategy for multimodal imaging-guided photo-Fenton therapy of tumors. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: T1-T2 dual-mode MRI nanoplatform with tumor-microenvironment-responsive features has been an attractive prospect. Herein, we designed redox ferrocenylseleno compound (FcSe) modified paramagnetic Gd3+-based UCNPs, to modulate T1-T2 relaxation time for multimodal imaging and H2O2-responsive photo-Fenton therapy. Selenium-hydrogen bond of FcSe with surrounding water molecules facilitated water accessibility for fast T1 relaxation. Hydrogen nucleus in FcSe perturbed the phase coherence of water molecules in an inhomogeneous magnetic field and thus accelerated T2 relaxation. In tumor microenvironment, FcSe was oxidized into hydrophilic ferrocenium via NIR light-promoted Fenton-like reaction which further increased both T1 and T2 relaxation rates; Meanwhile, the released toxic •OH performed on-demand cancer therapy. This work confirms that FcSe is an effective redox mediate for multimodal imaging-guided cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a vital endogenous gas signal molecule undertaking numerous physiological functions such as biological regulation and cytoprotection. Herein, we developed an electrochemical (EC) and photothermal (PT) dual-readout signals method for H2S detection based on a novel biosynthesis-mediated Ni-Fe-Cu LDH-to-sulfides transformation strategy. Interestingly, the Cu2+-based Ni-Fe LDH (Ni-Fe-Cu LDH) can act as the Cu2+ source to react with H2S, resulting in the in-situ generation of CuxS on Ni-Fe-Cu LDH surfaces. Because of the EC signal and intrinsic near-infrared (NIR) PT conversion ability of CuxS under 808 nm laser irradiation, the obtained CuxS@Ni-Fe-Cu LDH is applied to stimulate EC signal and temperature readout. By this means, a dual-readout signal mode is established for H2S detection. Under the optimum conditions, this combination of EC and PT methods displays a wide linear range for H2S to 0.1 μM-90 μM and 50 μM-400 μM, respectively, with a low detection limit of 0.09 μM. In addition, the practicality of Ni-Fe-Cu LDH is verified by determination of endogenous H2S in living cells. This work not only provides a promising application for H2S diagnosis but also exhibits the new characteristic of Ni-Fe-Cu LDH nanomaterials as signal transduction tags.

Abstract
Copper ions (Cu2+) and sulfur ions (S2−) are important elements widely used in industry. However, these ions have the risk of polluting the water environment. Therefore, rapid and quantitative detection methods for Cu2+ and S2− are urgently required. Using 2,4-difluorobenzoic acid and L-lysine as precursors, nitrogen and fluorine co-doped dots (N, F-CDs) were synthesized in this study via a hydrothermal method. The aqueous N, F-CDs showed excellent stability, exhibited satisfactory selectivity and excellent anti-interference ability for Cu2+ detection. The N, F-CDs, based on the redox reactions for selective and quantitative detection of Cu2+, showed a wide linear range (0–200 μM) with a detection limit (215 nM). By forming the N, F-CDs@Cu2+ sensing platform and based on the high affinity of S2− to Cu2+, the N, F-CDs@Cu2+ can specifically detect S2− over a linear range of 0–200 μM with a detection limit of 347 nM. In addition, these fluorescent probes achieved good results when used for Cu2+ and S2− detection in environmental water samples, implying the good potential for applications.

Abstract
A cell membrane-targeted near-infrared fluorescent probe, CMCu-H2S, was fabricated through employing hydrophobic chains and cyclen-Cu2+ as targeting and recognition groups, respectively. NIR fluorescence of CMCu-H2S can significantly increase after reacting with H2S by removing the quenchable Cu2+. This probe exhibited high selectivity and an extremely fast response rate. Cell imaging results demonstrated that there was a close relationship between the overexpression of NFS1 and drug resistance and inhibition of NFS1 was beneficial for improving the efficacy of chemotherapy.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been recently regarded as one of the most important gasotransmitters in the metabolic system, while abnormal H2S concentration is associated with various diseases. Although numerous fluorescent probes have been developed for the detection of cellular H2S, only a few of them can monitor lysosomal H2S with ratiometric fluorescent output. Here, we developed a water-soluble probe 1 toward H2S by introducing 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether into a novel merocyanine-based dye. As expected, H2S induced an obvious red-shift of the probe from 520 nm to 580 nm in neat aqueous solution, and this fluorescent ratiometric response is highly selective and sensitive (with the detection limit of 0.81 nM), rapid (within 10 s), and effective in a wide pH range (2.0-10.0). In particular, the probe was successfully applied for tracing H2S in the lysosomes of living cells and in zebrafish.

Abstract
Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), characterized by converting low-energy excitation to high-energy emission, have attracted considerable interest due to their inherent advantages of large anti-Stokes shifts, sharp and narrow multicolor emissions, negligible autofluorescence background interference, and excellent chemical- and photo-stability. These features make them promising luminophores for sensing applications. In this review, we give a comprehensive overview of lanthanide-doped upconversion nanophosphors including the fundamental principle for the construction of UCNPs with efficient upconversion luminescence (UCL), followed by state-of-the-art strategies for the synthesis and surface modification of UCNPs, and finally describing current advances in the sensing application of upconversion-based probes for the quantitative analysis of various analytes including pH, ions, molecules, bacteria, reactive species, temperature, and pressure. In addition, emerging sensing applications like photodetection, velocimetry, electromagnetic field, and voltage sensing are highlighted.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), emerging as an important gaseous signal, has attracted more and more attention for its key role in chronic fatty liver diseases. However, lacking tools for H2S-specific in situ detection, the changes of endogenous hepatic H2S levels in the pathological progression of chronic liver diseases are still unclear. To this end, we adopted a strategy of combining molecular probe design and nanofunctionalization to develop a highly selective near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe, which allows in vivo real-time monitoring of hepatic H2S levels in the process of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). As a proof of strategy demonstration, we first designed NIR molecular probes for H2S sensing through chemical design and probe screening and then loaded molecular probes into mesoporous silicon nanomaterials (MSNs) with surface encapsulation using poly(ethylene glycol) to construct a highly selective probe MSN@CSN@PEG, with significantly improved selectivity and photostability. Moreover, MSN@CSN@PEG exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for endogenous H2S in cells and tumors in vivo, eliminating the interference of a high concentration of biothiols and sulfhydryl proteins. Furthermore, the probe was applied to in situ intravital imaging and systematic assessment of hepatic H2S levels in different stages of NAFLD for the first time, which may offer a promising tool for the future study of fatty liver diseases and other chronic liver diseases.

Abstract
Precise modulation of pH in living cells plays a vital role in the study of many diseases, such as cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. Here, a series of imine-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) were rationally designed and developed for pH sensing in tumor cells and zebrafish. Four monomers were chosen to synthesize COFs (COF1-COF4) with different pKa by a simple orthogonal combination through condensation reaction. The as-obtained COFs exhibited a sensitive pH-dependent fluorescence response compared to their building blocks. Among them, COF2 possessed a high crystallinity, excellent fluorescence, and suitable pKa for biosensing. For bioimaging applications, COF2 was modified with poly-d-lysine (PDL) to improve its biocompatibility and endocytosis efficiency. After that, PDL-modified COF2 (PDL@COF2) was used as a novel fluorescence probe with a superior linear pH response over the range from 5.0 to 8.0 due to its fully reversible protonation and deprotonation. The fluorescent PDL@COF2 was further employed as a good candidate for pH imaging in tumor cells and zebrafish. The as-constructed environment-sensitive fluorescent COFs have greatly expanded the applications of COFs in the biological area.

Abstract
Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have emerged as promising luminescent nanomaterials due to their unique features that allow the overcoming of several problems associated with conventional fluorescent probes. Although UCNPs have been used in a broad range of applications, it is probably in the field of sensing where they best evidence their potential. UCNP-based sensors have been designed with high sensitivity and selectivity, for detection and quantification of multiple analytes ranging from metal ions to biomolecules. In this review, we deeply explore the use of UCNPs in sensing systems emphasizing the most relevant and recent studies on the topic and explaining how these platforms are constructed. Before diving into UCNP-based sensing platforms it is important to understand the unique characteristics of these nanoparticles, why they are attracting so much attention, and the most significant interactions occurring between UCNPs and additional probes. These points are covered over the first two sections of the article and then we explore the types of fluorescent responses, the possible analytes, and the UCNPs' integration with various material types such as gold nanostructures, quantum dots and dyes. All the topics are supported by analysis of recently reported sensors, focusing on how they are built, the materials' interactions, the involved synthesis and functionalization mechanisms, and the conjugation strategies. Finally, we explore the use of UCNPs in paper-based sensors and how these platforms are paving the way for the development of new point-of-care devices.

Abstract
The sensing and visualized monitoring of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in vivo is crucial to understand its physiological and pathological roles in human health and diseases. Common methods for H2S detection require the destruction of the biosamples and are not suitable to be applied in vivo. In this Communication, we report a "turn-on" second near-infrared (NIR-II) luminescent approach for sensitive, real-time, and in situ H2S detection, which is based on the absorption competition between the H2S-responsive chromophores (compound 1) and the NIR-II luminescent lanthanide nanoparticles. Specifically, the luminescence was suppressed by compound 1 due to the competitive absorption of the incident light. In the presence of H2S, the compound 1 was bleached to recover the luminescence. Thanks to the deep tissue penetration depth and the low absorbance/scattering on biological samples of the NIR-II nanoprobes, the monitoring of the endogenous H2S in lipopolysaccharide-induced liver inflammation was achieved, which is unattainable by the conventional histopathological and serological approaches.

Abstract
An electrochemical sensor was proposed for the detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) at room temperature, by using electroactive Cu2O nanocubes (NCs) as an electrochemical beacon. Electroactive Cu2O NCs were synthesized on the surface of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/Fe3O4 nanosheets (NSs) due to the good electronic conductivity and well-responded magnetic responses. The fabricated rGO/Fe3O4/Cu2O NSs not only showed electrochemical oxidization peak at -0.1 V from Cu2O NCs, and could be served as sensitive electrochemical beacon for the simple modification on magnetic electrodes in the applications. The unique redox reaction between Cu2O NCs and H2S enabled the transformation of Cu2O NCs to Cu9S8 NCs, resulting in decreased electroxidation responses at -0.1 V. The constructed electrochemical platform had a limit of detection (LOD) of 230 pM and a detection range of 500 pM-100 μM. The simple and cheap electrochemical sensor developed in this paper showed potential application for H2S detection.

Abstract
The core-shell NaGdF4:Yb,Er@NaGdF4:Yb,Nd upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were successfully obtained with the method of co-precipitation, and the water-solubility of UCNPs was improved by the ligand exchange reaction between nitrosyl tetrafluoroborate (NOBF4) and nanoparticles. The IR-783 dye with negative charge and NOBF4-UCNPs with positive charge can bind together by electrostatic action to sensitize UCNPs through the energy transfer from IR-783 to UCNPs. However, with the presence of Na2S (a commonly used H2S donor), a highly selective reaction between H2S and IR-783, which destoried the structure of IR-783 and blocked the energy transfer, thus led to the quenching of luminescent intensity. Based on this, a sensing system for determination of H2S has been constructed successfully. The linear range of H2S detection by this system is 0.5-15 μM, and the detection limit is 34.17 nM. Furthermore, the dye-sensitized core-shell NaGdF4:Yb,Er@NaGdF4:Yb,Nd upconversion nanoprobe was applied to real sample analysis with satisfactory results.

Abstract
A sensor with high sensitivity and response rate is still lacking in the detection of poisonous and volatile chemicals. Here, we report a highly sensitive nanoporous fluorescence sensor based on core@shell upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) for the detection of dichloromethane. UCNPs were deposited on porous anodic alumina oxide (AAO) templates supported by glass slides to form a thin film-like gas sensor in which UCNPs with active shells exhibit intense background-free fluorescence and simultaneously high optical sensitivity, while an AAO template acts as a porous substrate for UCNPs to increase the absorption capacity for molecules to be tested. A detection limit of 2.91 ppm was obtained for dichloromethane based on this sensor at room temperature. The involved response mechanism was attributed to lowered surface fluorescence quenching and scattering of UCNPs by dichloromethane.

Abstract
Upconversion materials have been the focus of a large body of research in analytical and clinical fields in the last two decades owing to their ability to convert light between various spectral regions and their particular photophysical features. They emit efficient and sharp ultraviolet (UV) or visible luminescence after excitation with near-infrared (NIR) light. These features overcome some of the disadvantages reported for conventional fluorescent materials and provide opportunities for high sensitivity chemo-and bio-sensing. Here, we review studies that used upconversion materials as sensors for the determination of pharmaceuticals and biomolecules in the last two decades. The articles included in this review were retrieved from the SCOPUS database using the search phrases: "upconversion nanoparticles for determination of pharmaceutical compounds", and "upconversion nanoparticles for determination of biomolecules". Details of each developed upconversion nanoparticles based sensor along with their relevant analytical parameters are reported and carefully explained.

Abstract
In the past few years, we have witnessed great development and application potential of various up-conversion luminescent nanoparticles (UCNPs) in the nanomedicine field. Based on the unique luminescent mechanism of UCNPs and the distinguishable features of cancer biomarkers and the microenvironment, an increasing number of smart UCNPs nanoprobes have been designed and widely applied to molecular imaging, cancer diagnosis, and treatment. Considerable technological success has been achieved, but the main obstacles to oncology nanomedicine is becoming an incomplete understanding of nano-bio interactions, the challenges regarding chemistry manufacturing and controls required for clinical translation and so on. This review highlights the progress of the design principles, synthesis and surface functionalization preparation, underlying applications and challenges of UCNPs-based probes for cancer bioimaging, diagnosis and treatment that capitalize on our growing understanding of tumor biology and smart nano-devices for accelerating the commercialization of UCNPs.

Abstract
A fluorescent probe for the monitoring of H2S levels in living cells and organisms is highly desirable. In this regard, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes have emerged as a promising tool. NIR-I and NIR-II probes have many significant advantages; for instance, NIR light penetrates deeper into tissue than light at visible wavelengths, and it causes less photodamage during biosample analysis and less autofluorescence, enabling higher signal-to-background ratios. Therefore, it is expected that fluorescent probes having emission in the NIR region are more suitable for in vivo imaging. Consequently, a considerable increase in reports of new H2S-responsive NIR fluorescent probes appeared in the literature. This review highlights the advances made in developing new NIR fluorescent probes aimed at the sensitive and selective detection of H2S in biological samples. Their applications in real-time monitoring of H2S in cells and in vivo for bioimaging of living cells/animals are emphasized. The selection of suitable dyes for designing NIR fluorescent probes, along with the principles and mechanisms involved for the sensing of H2S in the NIR region, are described. The discussions are focused on small-molecule and nanomaterials-based NIR probes.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as an important gaseous signaling molecule is closely related to numerous biological processes in living systems. To further study the physiological and pathological roles of H2S, convenient and efficient detection techniques for endogenous H2S in vivo are still in urgent demand. In this study, an electrochromic chromophore, dicationic 1,1,4,4-tetra-aryl butadiene (EM1), was innovatively introduced into upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and a nanoprobe, PAAO-UCNPs-EM1, was constructed for the detection of H2S. This nanosystem was made of core-shell upconversion nanoparticles (NaYF4:Yb,Tm@NaYF4:Yb,Er), EM1, and polyacrylic acid (PAA)-octylamine. The EM1 with strong absorption ranging from 500 to 850 nm could serve as an energy acceptor to quench the upconversion luminescence of UCNPs through the Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) process. In the presence of H2S, the EM1 in the nanoprobe was reduced to a colorless diene (EM2), resulting in the linear enhancement of luminescence emissions at 660 nm and 800 nm under the excitation of 980 nm light because the FRET was switched off. The nanoprobe PAAO-UCNPs-EM1PAAO-UCNPs-EM1 exhibited fast response and high sensitivity to H2S with a LoD of 1.21 × 10-7 M. Moreover, it was successfully employed in detecting the endogenous and exogenous H2S in living cells with high selectivity and low cytotoxicity. Also, this nanoprobe could distinguish normal and tumor cells by an upconversion luminescence imaging of endogenous H2S. Furthermore, the nanoprobe could significantly monitor H2S in a tumor-bearing nude mouse model. Therefore, we anticipate that this novel nanoprobe assembled with an electrochromic chromophore for responding to H2S and for bioimaging this molecule would have a promising prospect in biological and clinical investigations.

Molecular design strategies of multifunctional probe for simultaneous monitoring of Cu 2+, Al 3+, Ca 2+ and endogenous l-phenylalanine (LPA) recognition in living cells and zebrafishes. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 389:121831.

Abstract
An innovative strategy of adjusting the molecular polarity of organics is applied for multifunctional simultaneous ions detection. It involved the use of 4-bromo-2-hydroxyben Rhodamine B hydrazide (RHBr) as a colorimetric and fluorescent multifunctional chemosensor. Briefly, it was designed and prepared via integrating 4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde with Rhodamine B hydrazide, and Rhodamine B as fluorophore group, CO, -CHN and -OH groups as reaction site, Br atom as electro n-withdrawing group. On the basis of theoretical calculation under Gaussian 09 software suit, RHBr could exclusively recognize Cu2+, Al3+ and Ca2+. This was also experimentally confirmed by the different turn-on colorimetric and fluorescent signals. For example the selective detection of Cu2+ ion in DMSO/H2O (1/1 = v/v, 10.0 mM HEPES pH 7.0) with the "naked-eye" when the color changed from colorless to pink, Al3+ with "turn-on" strong orange-red fluorescence and Ca2+ with strong green fluorescence in EtOH/H2O (v/v = 95/5). Under the optimized conditions, all the ions could be detected at a very low concentrations (1.7 × 10-7 M, 1.0 × 10-8 M, 2.8 × 10-7 M for Cu2+, Al3+, and Ca2+, respectively). In addition, the "in situ" formed RHBr-Al3+ was used to recognize l-phenylalanine (LPA) with a "turn-off" fluorescence ranging from 0.03-10.0 μM with the low detection concetration of 3.0 × 10-7 M. The sensing mechanisms of RHBr toward three metal ions and the ensemble RHBr-Al3+ toward the l-phenylalanine (LPA) were further investigated in detail. Practical application experiments further proved that RHBr had good cell permeability and could be utilized to detect Al3+ and Ca2+, and the complexes of RHBr-Al3+ could be applied to detect l-phenylalanine (LPA) in the living cells and zebrafishes, respectively.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is of vital importance in several biological and physical processes. The significance of H2S-specific detection and monitoring is emphasized by its elevated levels in various diseases such as cancer. Nanotechnology enhances the performance of chemical sensing nanoprobes due to the enhanced efficiency and sensitivity. Recently, extensive research efforts have been dedicated to developing novel smart H2S-triggered/therapeutic system (SHTS) nanoplatforms for H2S-activated sensing, imaging, and therapy. Herein, the latest SHTS-based nanomaterials are summarized and discussed in detail. In addition, therapeutic strategies mediated by endogenous H2S as a trigger or exogenous H2S delivery are also included. A comprehensive understanding of the current status of SHTS-based strategies will greatly facilitate innovation in this field. Lastly, the challenges and key issues related to the design and development of SHTS-based nanomaterials (e.g., morphology, surface modification, therapeutic strategies, appropriate application, and selection of nanomaterials) are outlined.

Abstract
A novel colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescent probe (Cou-BPO) was readily prepared for specific detection of harmful benzoyl peroxide (BPO). The probe Cou-BPO reacted with BPO via a selective oxidation cleavage-induced cascade reaction of the pinacol phenylboronate group, which resulted in an observable colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescence response towards BPO with a fast response time (<15 min) and a low detection limit (56 nM). For practical application, facile, portable and sensitive test paper of Cou-BPO has been prepared for visual detection of BPO. Furthermore, we employed Cou-BPO as a probe to determine BPO in food samples and living cells.
