Abstract
An organic-inorganic hybrid nanoprobe, namely LML-D-SBA@Eu3+-Gd3+, was constructed, with SBA-15 acting as the carrier material, and luminol and Eu3+ acting as fluorescence channels to achieve ratiometric signals that eliminate external interference (accurate detection). Gd3+ was used as a sensitizer to amplify the red emission of Eu3+ (ultrasensitive detection). In TCs detection, the luminol emission at 428 nm was quenched due to the photoinduced electron transfer mechanism, and the Eu3+ emission at 617 nm was sensitized due to the synergistic energy transfer from TCs and Gd3+ to Eu3+. The fluorescence intensity at 617 and 428 nm showed ratiometric changes as indicated by notable color changes from blue to red. The detection limits for TC and OTC were 0.21 and 0.08 ng/mL, respectively. To realize a facile, rapid, and cost-effective detection, we constructed a portable intelligent sensing platform based on smartphones, and it demonstrated great potential for on-site detection of TCs.

Abstract
The role of ClO- in the physiological functioning of organisms is significant. In this paper, the four fluorescent probes HONx (HON1, HON2, HON3 and HON4) were prepared based on oxyanthracene through the introduction of different substituents, and their photophysical properties were investigated, among which the AIE effect of HON1 was the most significant, and therefore the fluorescent "turn-off" ClO- probe HON1-CN was chosen to be prepared by constructing the ClO- recognition site hydrazone bond at HON1. The ClO- recognises the hydrazone group in the probe HON1-CN, and when the hydrazone bond is broken, the aldehyde group is released, generating HON1 with yellow fluorescence. The probe HON1-CN is highly selective and stable for the detection of ClO- with a detection limit of 0.48 μM and a more than 10-fold increase in fluorescence intensity when the fluorescence is 'switched on', and to a lesser extent, the probe is also very good for the detection of hypochlorite ClO- in the pericarp. Finally, HON1-CN has also been used to detect the presence of ClO- in HeLa cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
As an important ROS species participating in various physiological and pathological processes, high level of hypochlorite (ClO-) poses significant health and safety concerns, necessitating efficient detection methods. Herein, this study introduces a water-soluble fluorescent nanoprobe Nano-SJD, effectively detect ClO- in both food samples and living cells. The small molecular probe SJD with N, N-dimethylthiocarbamyl (DMTC) as recognition moiety was constructed based on a naphthalene derivative. To further improve the water solubility, SJD was assembled with an amphiphilic copolymer (mPEG-DSPE) to prepare a water soluble fluorescent nanoprobe Nano-SJD. Fortunately, the nanoprobe preserves the excellent properties of small molecules and performs very well optical response to ClO- in aqueous solution, possessing the advantages including ultra-rapid response (within 1 s), minimal interference, low detection limits (0.39 μM) and good pH stability. What's more important, we have also developed smartphone-compatible test paper strips for convenient on-site detection of ClO- in real-water samples. Additionally, the robust fluorescent imaging behavior of Nano-SJD for visualization of ClO- in living cells highlights its broad potential in biosystem applicability.

Abstract
Due to the its high abundance, iron ion contamination and toxicity is one of the most challenging issue for living beings. Although, iron is extremenly important for several body functions, excess amount of iron in the body can also be fatal. In last century, rapid industrialization, iron extraction and mismanagement of industrial waste disposal leads to iron contamination in water bodies. Therefore, versatile iron sensors needs to be develop which can be employed for detection in biological as well as real water samples. 8-hydroxyquinoline is well-known for its strong affinity towards transition metals including Fe3+. In this regard, we have synthesised benzothiazole-quinoline derived 1,2,3- triazole (4HBTHQTz), in which 4-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)phenolic (4-HBT) group acts as a fluorophore. 4HBTHQTz showed high fluorescence and induced a selective decrease in fluorescence with Fe3+ at 380 nm (λex. = 320 nm). The detection limit of 4HBTHQTz with Fe3+ is calculated as 0.64 μM, which is lower than the WHO recommended limit in drinking water. 4HBTHQTz works over the 5-8 pH range and has shown promising results for quantitative detection of Fe3+ in water samples collected from tap, river and seawater. 4HBTHQTz can also detect the Fe3+ in biological samples which is confirmed by fluorescence cell imaging using L929 mouse fibroblast cells. Overall, 4HBTHQTz showed advantages such as high selectivity, quick detection, and good limit of detection (LOD) for Fe3+.

Abstract
The emission of venenous sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its derivatives from industrial applications such as coking, transportation and food processing has caused great concern about public health and environmental quality. Probes that enable sensitivity and specificity to detect SO2 derivatives play a crucial role in its regulations and finally mitigating its environmental and health impacts, but fluorescent probes that can accurately, rapidly and on-site detect SO2 derivatives in foodstuffs and environmental systems rarely reported. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe (ZTX) for the ratiometric response of bisulfite (HSO3-) was designed and synthesized by regulating the structure of high-performance HSO3- fluorescent probe SL previously reported by us based on structural analyses, theoretical calculations and related literature reports. The Michael addition reaction between the electronic-deficient C=C bond and HSO3- destroys ZTX's π-conjugation system and blocks its intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process, resulting in a significant fading of the fuchsia solution and the bluish-purple fluorescence turned light blue fluorescence. Fluorescent imaging of HSO3- in live animals utilizing ZTX has been demonstrated. The quantitative analysis of HSO3- in food samples using ZTXvia a smartphone has been also successfully implemented. Simultaneously, the ZTX-based test strips were utilized to quantificationally determine HSO3- in environmental water samples by a smartphone. Consequently, probe ZTX could provide a new method to understand the physiopathological roles of HSO3-, evaluate food safety and monitor environment, and is promising for broad applications.

Abstract
One challenge of the structural design of a fluorescent probe is how to improve the detection performance on trace target analytes in complex samples. Herein a new polymer fluorescent nanoprobe (2DSP-C28) has been synthesized, by adopting a two-dimensional (2D), spiropyran (SP)-based nanosheet structure with hydrophobic long-chain alkanes (C28). Unlike a traditional SP-based small molecule probe, the 2DSP-C28probe can exhibit quantitative-fluorescent and photochromic properties. Under the detection of metal-ions, the nanoprobe in dimethyl sulfoxide aqueous solution is selectively fluorescent-quenched-responsive for Fe-ions (∼100μM), with a characteristic stoichiometric ratio of <10, a high sensitivity (limit of detection: ∼0.2μM). When the nanoprobe is incorporated into electrospun polyethylene oxide, it can be used for gas detection, and display a color-change with acid-base gas and identify the HF gas. It is expected that this new polymer fluorescent nanoprobe can be promisingly applied for rapidly environmental monitoring on the ion or gas pollution.

Abstract
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its derivatives (HSO3- and SO32-) are widely used in food-processing. Whereas excessive consumption of sulfur dioxide and its derivatives (>0.70 mg·kg-1day-1) severely endangers human health. In this work, we rationally constructed a practical dual-mode probe (dicyanomethylene)-1-methyl-1,4-dihydroquinolin-2-yl)vinyl)-1-methylquinolinium (QMN), which underwent a specific 1, 4-Michael addition with sulfite to afford a noticeable color change from pale yellow to red along with a high-contrast fluorescence turn-on response at 598 nm. QMN has the advantages of rapid response, high signal-to-noise ratio, excellent selectivity, good water-solubility, large Stokes shift and low detection limit (LOD = 31.9 nM). QMN has been successfully used to on-site visually determine sulfite in a diversity of foods with satisfactory recoveries (91.33-111.33 %) and high accuracy (93.74-98.71 %). Furthermore, a portable smartphone-based fluorescence sensing platform was fabricated for on-site determination of sulfite in food with good performance.

Abstract
To address the issue of food spoilage causing health and economic loss, we developed a pH/NH3 dual sensitive hydrogel based on polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) containing chitosan-phenol red (CP). The CP was synthesized via Mannich reaction and immobilized it in PVA/CS hydrogel through freezing/thawing method to prepare the final PVA/CS/CP hydrogel. The synthesis of CP was confirmed by 1H NMR, FT-IR, XRD, UV-vis, and XPS. The characteristics of hydrogel were evaluated by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, mechanical properties, thermal stability, leaching, and color stability tests. The PVA/CS/CP hydrogel showed distinctly different color at various pH and NH3 vapor levels (yellow to purple). The hydrogel exhibited obvious color changes (ΔE = 46.95) in response to shrimp spoilage, stored at 4 °C. It showed positive and strong correlation between the ΔE values of the indicator hydrogel and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) as (R2 = 0.9573) and with pH as (R2 = 0.8686), respectively. These results clearly show that the PVA/CS/CP hydrogel could be applied for naked-eye real-time monitoring of seafood freshness in intelligent packaging.

Abstract
Meat freshness is related to food safety and human health. Developing a simple and effective method for on-site detection of meat freshness is essential to ensure food safety. This study aimed to explore a ratiometric fluorescence platform for on-site screening of meat freshness. We synthesized a series of benzothiazole-based fluorescent compounds (BM, BHM and BTH), each with different recognition groups for detecting meat freshness biomarkers cadaverine (Cad) and putrescine (Pte). The optimized 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl-3-aldehyde-5-1,3-indanedione) benzothiazole (BTH) demonstrated a noticeable color and fluorescence change, a fast response (<15 min), and high selectivity and sensitivity (LOD = 70 nM) to Cad. Portable test strips based on BTH were prepared for rapid visual detection of meat freshness, which exhibited visible color and fluorescen color changes to Cad and Pte. Furthermore, a portable smartphone-based fluorescence device integrated with a self-programmed Python program was fabricated and used on-site to monitor Cad and Pte within 5 min. The BTH-loaded portable test strips were successfully employed as low-cost, high-contrast, fast-response, and smartphone-adaptable fluorescent labels for detecting Cad and Pte in meat samples under different temperatures (25 °C, 4 °C, and -20 °C). This enabled consumers and food supply chain stakeholders to quickly and visually monitor the meat freshness in real beef, chicken, and pork products.

Abstract
Emission of toxic gaseous sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its derivative bisulfite (HSO3-) from various industrial applications, like food processing, transportation, and the coking process, has raised substantial concerns regarding environmental quality and public health. The probes for specific and sensitive detection of SO2 derivatives plays an essential role in their regulation, and ultimately mitigating their environmental and health implications, but the one that can detect SO2 derivatives onsite by end users remains limited. Herein, we report a new near-infrared fluorescence probe (SL) for rapid and onsite detection of SO2 derivative, HSO3- in industrial wastewater, food samples and for sensing its interaction with biological organisms. The SL is developed through coupling of quinolinium and coumarin moiety through an electron deficit CC bond that can specifically react with HSO3- via a Michael addition. By recording the blue shift of absorption and emission spectra, SL can sensitively detect HSO3- (limit of detection, 38 nM) in aqueous solution within 40 s SL is biocompatible, can be used for evaluating toxicity of SO2 derivatives in living organisms. The preparation of SL-stained test paper allows the colorimetric/fluorometric analysis for quantification of HSO3- onsite in food, river and coking wastewater samples using a smartphone. The successful development of SL not only provides a new tool to investigate HSO3- in biological, food and environmental systems, but also potentially promotes the application of fluorescence technique for rapid and onsite analysis of real-world samples by end users.

Abstract
In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel compound (PTH-AB-PY) based on phenothiazine and pyridine moieties with aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) properties. The compound has shown exceptional selectivity and sensitivity towards ClO- ions with an impressive detection limit of 6.86 × 10-4 M. Its remarkable sensitivity arises from its effective inhibition of the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) mechanism. Job's plot analysis and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS) confirmed the 1 : 1 binding ratio between the compound and ClO-. The synthesized compound also exhibits higher sensitivity and fluorescence quenching towards the explosive species (picric acid), with a detection limit of around 1.44 × 10-6 M. Furthermore, our work was carried out for real-time water sample analysis to check ClO- and picric acid detection and high recovery rates (94 to 99%) were achieved. These findings highlight the potential of PTH-AB-PY as a promising molecular probe for ClO- ions and picric acid detection with various analytical and environmental applications.

Abstract
As a common disinfectant and an essential reactive oxygen species (ROS), hypochlorite (ClO-) plays vital roles in both water treatment and cell metabolism, but its abnormal level can cause serious harm to human health. Therefore, quantifying ClO- level in drinking water and living organisms is extremely significant. Herein, we decorated different cationic heterocycles on phenothiazine core to construct three fluorescent probes for ClO-. According to the results, only benzothiazolium moiety reasonably adjusted the electron cloud density at sulfur atom of phenothiazine core for the specific oxidation with ClO-, thus endowing the prepared probe PT-BT with a perfect selectivity for ClO-. Meanwhile, PT-BT exhibited a low detection limit (38 nM) and a fast response (within 20 s) toward ClO-. Furthermore, this probe was utilized to fabricate a ready-to-use test strip, which could quantitatively measure ClO- level in real water samples by a portable smartphone sensing platform. Notably, PT-BT targeted mitochondria efficiently, and successfully visualized endogenous ClO- in living cells and zebrafish larvae. Especially, PT-BT was able to monitor the dynamic change of ClO- level in inflammatory mice. These results strongly manifested that probe PT-BT was a promising tool for detecting ClO- in drinking water and living organisms.

Abstract
The death of aquatic and terrestrial organisms caused by cyanobacterial blooms has been a topic of considerable concern since the 19th century. Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) produced by cyanobacterial blooms threaten natural ecosystems and human health. Therefore, establishing an effective monitoring and early warning system to detect MC-LR in water bodies is crucial. However, rapidly and intuitively assessing the distribution traits of MC-LR in lakes is a challenging task due to the complexities and expenses associated with conventional detection methods. To overcome these technical limitations, we introduce a novel and effective method for evaluating the distribution of MC-LR in lakes. This method is achieved by using a fluorescence probe (BAD) technology, marking the first application of this technology in evaluating the distribution of MC-LR in natural lake environments. The probe BAD is endowed with unique functions through clever functionalization modification. Experimental results exhibit that BAD has different fluorescence signals at various lake sampling points. The correlation analysis of fluorescence data and physicochemical indicators determines that the fluorescence data of the probe exhibit good correlation with MC-LR, implying that BAD is capable of detecting MC-LR in lakes. Moreover, the introduction of fluorescence technology to achieve the intuitive distribution of MC-LR in the entire plateau lake. This study provides a new method for evaluating the distribution of MC-LR in plateau lakes. It opens a new avenue for exploring the relationship between cyanobacterial blooms and MC-LR in natural waters.

Abstract
A new AIE-based luminogen TPES, as a ratiometric fluorescence probe for mercury(II) was readily synthesized. The probe combined the advantages of the outstanding specificity of Hg2+-triggered deprotection reaction of thioketal and the brilliant emission of AIEgens in aggregated state. Once encountered aqueous Hg2+, fluorescent color of TPES in THF-H2O (fw = 98%) altered from blue to green rapidly, while other metal cations gave no interference to the probe. And the mechanism of this chemosensor was carefully verified by 1H NMR analysis, FTIR and MS spectra. As expected, TPES exhibits excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards Hg2+ in the solid state. When using filter paper as the solid medium, the fabricated test strips could signify Hg2+ ions with the LOD as 1 × 10-5 M (Hg2+ in aqueous solution), accompanied with a distinct emitting altered from blue to green. Furthermore, by changing the medium from filter paper to silica gel plate, a more significant fluorescence alteration from blue to yellow was achieved, and the LOD was further optimized to 1 × 10-6 M as discerned by naked-eye.

Abstract
In eutrophic water bodies, sulfides are closely related to the growth of cyanobacteria and the production of microcystin-LR (MC-LR). To date, the underlying interaction mechanism between a sulfides and MC-LR remains controversial. Thus, visually presenting the distribution characteristics of sulfides and MC-LR in contaminated water is crucial. Here, we propose a novel and expeditious practical approach, utilizing fluorescence probe technology, to assess the distribution characteristics of MC-LR and sulfur in natural lakes. We have developed novel probes, pib2, to detect HSO3- and HS-, and pib18, to simultaneously identify MC-LR and sulfides. Through correlation analysis of fluorescence data and physicochemical indicators at sampling points, it is found that fluorescence data has good correlation with sulfides and MC-LR, and speculated that pib2 and pib18 may be able to detect sulfides and MC-LR in lakes. Using this method, we rapidly obtained the distribution of MC-LR and sulfur in Qilu and Erhai Lakes. Notably, for the first time, we rapidly displayed the distributions of sulfides and MC-LR across lakes by the fluorescent probe technology.

Abstract
Microenvironmental indicators in organisms drive the operation of different physiological functions. In contrast, disruption of microenvironmental homeostasis is often closely associated with various pathological processes. A novel dual-response fluorescent probe based on hemicyanine dye (HT-Bzh) was designed and synthesized for the detection of HSO3- and viscosity changes. The probe not only provides high sensitivity (limit of detection = 0.2526 μM) for the detection of HSO3- using the Michael addition reaction, but also allows the observation of fluorescence emission at 528 nm and thus the monitoring of viscosity changes through hindering of the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) mechanism. Additionally, dual-response probe has been successfully used to image living cells and detect real food samples. As a new designed tool, HT-Bzh shows excellent anti-interference capability and biocompatibility, which makes it have application potential in other biological systems and in-vivo imaging.

Abstract
A carboxylesterase fluorescent probe (Probe 1) was developed for determination of carboxylesterase to guide detection of carbamate pesticide. The probe uses benzothiazole as fluorescence group and phenyldimethyl carbamate as recognition group. The solution of the fluorescent probe gradually changes from light blue to dark blue as the concentration of carbamate pesticides increases. The concentration of carbamate pesticides can be quickly calculated according to the colour of the probe solution through Get Color software on a smartphone. It showed that Probe 1 can be used as a rapid detection tool to achieve rapid detection of carbamate pesticides in juice samples without professional personnel and equipment. Furthermore, the probe has been successfully used to detect carbamate pesticides in fruit juice and vegetable juice.

Abstract
Food contaminants present a significant threat to public health. In response to escalating global concerns regarding food safety, there is a growing demand for straightforward, rapid, and sensitive detection technologies. Noble metal nanoclusters (NMNCs) have garnered considerable attention due to their superior attributes compared to other optical materials. These attributes include high catalytic activity, excellent biocompatibility, and outstanding photoluminescence properties. These features render NMNCs promising candidates for crafting nanosensors for food contaminant detection, offering the potential for the development of uncomplicated, swift, sensitive, user-friendly, and cost-effective detection approaches. This review investigates optical nanosensors based on NMNCs, including the synthesis methodologies of NMNCs, sensing strategies, and their applications in detecting food contaminants. Furthermore, it involves a comparative assessment of the applications of NMNCs in optical sensing and their performance. Ultimately, this paper imparts fresh perspectives on the forthcoming challenges. Hitherto, optical (particularly fluorescent) nanosensors founded on NMNCs have demonstrated exceptional sensing capabilities in the realm of food contaminant detection. To enhance sensing performance, future research should prioritize atomically precise NMNCs synthesis, augmentation of catalytic activity and optical properties, development of high-throughput and multimode sensing, integration of NMNCs with microfluidic devices, and the optimization of NMNCs storage, shelf life, and transportation conditions.

Abstract
This study reported a ruthenium complex-based fluorescence probe, achieving rapid and sequential detection of propyl gallate (PG) and tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) for the first time by tuning pH only. Under 480 nm excitation, probe exhibited intensive emission at 620 nm, which was selectively quenched by PG at pH 7.0 due to the covalent binding between the boric acid of probe and o-diphenol hydroxyl of PG. Then pH was tuned to 7.4, the emission was significantly quenched by TBHQ because of the π-π stacking between aromatic rings of probe and paraquinone of TBHQ. This probe realized specific and sensitive detection of PG and TBHQ with wide range and low detection limit (0.26 µM for PG and 0.66 µM for TBHQ). Furthermore, a portable visual test paper detection platform was built based on this probe for rapid and sensitive detection of antioxidants in food, which was of great significance for market regulation.

Abstract
Nitroxynil as a veterinary drug has been widely used for treatment of parasitic worms in food-producing sheep and cattle. However, the residual nitroxynil in edible animal products can lead to severe adverse effects on human health. Thus, development of an effective analytical tool for nitroxynil is of great significance. In the present study, we designed and synthesized a novel albumin-based fluorescent sensor, which was capable of detecting nitroxynil with the fast response (<10 s), high sensitivity (limit of detection ∼8.7 ppb), high selectivity, and excellent anti-interference property. The sensing mechanism was clarified by using the molecular docking technique and mass spectra. Moreover, this sensor showed the detection accuracy comparable to standard HPLC method, and meanwhile exhibited much shorter response time and higher sensitivity. All the results demonstrated that this novel fluorescent senor could serve as a practical analytical tool for determination of nitroxynil in real food samples.

Abstract
Cysteine, as one of semi-essential amino acids, which is absorbed from protein-rich foods and acts considerable role in various physiological processes. Here, we designed and synthesized a BODIPY-based turn-on fluorescent probe BDP-S for detecting Cys. The probe displayed short reaction time (10 min), distinct color response (from blue to pink), large signal noise ratio (3150-fold), high selectivity and sensitivity (LOD = 11.2 nM) toward Cys. Moreover, BDP-S could not only be used for quantitative determination of Cys in food samples, but also be conveniently deposited on the test strips for qualitative detection of Cys. Notably, BDP-S was successfully used for imaging Cys in living cells and in vivo. Consequently, this work provided a hopefully powerful tool for detecting Cys in food samples and complex biological systems.

Abstract
Nitroxynil (NTX) is a common anthelmintic veterinary drug for the management of fascioliasis in food-producing sheep and cattle. Since excessive NTX residue in food can lead to several adverse side effects, such as allergic skin reaction and respiratory irritation, it is of great importance to develop an efficient analytical method for NTX determination. Herein, we report a simple fluorescent detection method based on a novel supramolecular probe capable of detecting NTX with a fast response (5 s), high sensitivity (107 nM), high selectivity, and acceptable anti-interference property. Moreover, the portable paper-based test strips were facilely prepared and successfully realized on-site determination of NTX in real edible animal products simply with the aid of a smartphone. To the best of our knowledge, this is the very first report on the portable detection of NTX. This study also provides a promising strategy for the fast and portable detection of analyte based on the host-guest system, which will lead to improved fluorescent probe design for food analysis.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent probe, with advanced features including "turn-on" fluorescence response, high sensitivity, good compatibility, and mitochondria-targeting function, has been synthesized based on structural design for detecting and visualizing cyanide in foods and biological systems. An electron-donating triphenylamine group (TPA) was employed as the fluorescent and an electron-accepting 4-methyl-N-methyl-pyridinium iodide (Py) moiety was used as a mitochondria-targeted localization unit, which formed intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) system. The "turn-on" fluorescence response of the probe (TPA-BTD-Py, TBP) toward cyanide is attributed two reasons, one is the insertion of an electron-deficient benzothiadiazole (BTD) group into the conjugated system between TPA and Py, and the other is the inhibition of ICT induced by the nucleophilic addition of CN-. Two active sites for reacting with CN- were involved in TBP molecule and high response sensitivity were observed in tetrahydrofuran solvent containing 3 % H2O. The response time could be reduced to 150 s, the linear range was 0.25-50 μM, and the limit of detection was 0.046 μM for CN- analysis. The TBP probe was successfully applied to the detection of cyanide in food samples prepared in aqueous solution, including the sprouting potato, bitter almond, cassava, and apple seeds. Furthermore, TBP exhibited low cytotoxicity, clear mitochondria-localizing capability in HeLa cells and excellent fluorescence imaging of exogenous and endogenous CN- in living PC12 cells. Moreover, exogenous CN- with intraperitoneal injection in nude mice could be well monitored visually by the "turn-on" fluorescence. Therefore, the strategy based on structural design provided good prospects for optimizing fluorescent probes.

Abstract
Carprofen (CPF) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that has been widely used in livestock for the treatment of fever and inflammation. Yet the massive use of CPF comes at the cost of its residue ubiquitous in the environment thus leading to a huge risk to human health. Therefore, development of a convenient analytical method for monitoring CPF is of considerable importance. In this study, a dual-emissive supramolecular sensor was facilely constructed using bovine serum albumin as the host and an environmentally sensitive dye as the guest. This sensor, for the first time, successfully realized the fluorescent detection of CPF with a rapid response, high sensitivity and selectivity. More importantly, this sensor exhibited a very unique ratiometric response to CPF, which endowed this method with satisfactory detection accuracy for food analysis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first fluorescent method for fast determination of CPF in food.

Abstract
Increasing awareness of the health and environment impacts of the antibiotics misuse or overuse, such as tetracycline (TC) in treatment or prevention of infections and diseases, has driven the development of robust methods for their detection in biological, environmental and food systems. In this work, we report the development of a new europium(III) complex functionalized silica nanoprobe (SiNPs-Eu3+) for highly sensitive and selective detection of TC residue in aqueous solution and food samples (milk and meat). The nanoprobe is developed by immobilization of Eu3+ ion onto the surface of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) as the emitter and TC recognition unit. The β-diketone configuration of TC can further coordinate with Eu3+ steadily on the surface of nanoprobe, facilitating the absorption of light excitation for Eu3+ emitter activation and luminescence "off-on" response. The dose-dependent luminescence enhancement of SiNPs-Eu3+ nanoprobe exhibits good linearities, allowing the quantitative detection of TC. The SiNPs-Eu3+ nanoprobe shows high sensitivity and selectivity for TC detection in buffer solution. Time resolved luminescence analysis enables the elimination of autofluorescence and light scattering for highly sensitive detection of TC in milk and pork mince with high accuracy and precision. The successful development of SiNPs-Eu3+ nanoprobe is anticipated to provide a rapid, economic, and robust approach for TC detection in real world samples.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has comprehensive contributions to maintaining the normal operation and stability of organisms, and it also occurs in the wastewater environment and is related to the deterioration of foodstuffs. Therefore, developing high-sensitive detection techniques for tracing H2S is promising and meaningful. Inspired by this, a novel nopinone-based fluorescent probe NPS for the recognition of H2S was designed and synthesized with excellent sensitivity, low limit of detection (79 nM), good selectivity, and wide pH range (5-9). NPS could emit strong yellow fluorescence and its emission intensity showed a remarkable augmentation at 520 nm upon the supplement of H2S. Furthermore, the recognition mechanism of NPS for H2S was verified by the HRMS analysis, 1H NMR spectra titration, and DFT computation. What is more, NPS also had broad applications in the monitoring of real water samples, red wine, beer, and eggs samples, which showed its development prospect and value in environmental pollution, foodstuffs quality analysis fields. NPS also was applied to monitor trace exogenous H2S and bioimaging in living cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
Nitrite (NO2-) is an inorganic contaminant that exists widely in the environment including water and food products, excessive amounts of NO2- would threaten humans and aquatic life. Developing a rapid and convenient sensing method for NO2- remains a great challenge. Herein, a colorimetric and near-infrared fluorescent probe (TBM) was synthesized and applied for sensitively and selectively detecting NO2- in water, food samples and Escherichia coli (E. coli). With the addition of NO2-, the probe TBM solution has a distinct visual color changed from red to colorless and fluorescence intensity at 620 nm quickly decreased. The probe TBM could detect NO2- quantitatively with a detection limit of 85 nM based on a 3σ/slope. Under optimum conditions, TBM has been successfully used to detect NO2- in real-world environmental and dietary samples, with positive results. Besides, paper strips loaded with TBM have been used to visually determine NO2- levels. Most importantly, TBM has also been proven to be able to discriminate from different concentrations of NO2- in E. coli by fluorescence imaging. In summary, the probe TBM was successfully developed for the accurate quantification, naked eyes detection and bioimaging of NO2- in water, food samples and E. coli, which provides a useful tool to better guarantee the quality and safety of daily life and food industry.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a type of enzyme that widely exists in various tissues of the human body; it plays an important role in regulating many cell functions. The development of a sensitive and accurate tool to detect the changes of ALP activity in organisms can contribute to research in the fields of biochemistry, cytology, clinical medicine, etc. In this paper, a small organic molecule-based ratiometric fluorescent probe (FCP) was designed based on the hydroxyl electron-donating group in fluorescein-coumarin protected by the phosphate group. ALP can trigger the fluorescence change through the enzyme-catalyzed cleavage of phosphoryl ester groups, and the ratio of ALP can be measured at wavelengths of 465 nm and 530 nm. The probe had high selectivity and sensitivity to ALP, and the detection limit measured under the optimal conditions in an aqueous medium reached 0.006 mU/mL. The ALP activity of human serum samples was determined using the probe and found to be in good agreement with that measured using commercial ALP kits. Finally, the probe was also successfully applied to image ALP in living hepatocytes with good selectivity and sensitivity.

Abstract
Hypocalcemia is a disease that adversely affects the production and reproduction of dairy cows. A portable device for rapid bovine blood calcium sensing has been growing in demand. Herein, we report a smartphone-based ratiometric fluorescence probe (SRFP) platform as a new way to detect and quantify calcium ions (Ca2+) in blood serum. Specifically, we employed a cost-effective and portable smartphone-based platform coupled with customized software that evaluates the response of Ca2+ ions to ratiometric fluorescence probe in bovine serum. The platform consists of a three-dimensional (3D) printed housing and low-cost optical components that excite fluorescent probe and selectively transmit fluorescence emissions to smartphones. The customized software is equipped with a calibration model to quantify the acquired fluorescence images and quantify the concentration of Ca2+ ions. The ratio of the green channel to the red channel bears a highly reproducible relationship with Ca2+ ions concentration from 10 μM to 40 μM in bovine serum. Our detection system has a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.8 μM in bovine serum samples and the recoveries of real samples ranged from 92.8% to 110.1%, with relative standard deviation (RSD) ranging from 1.72% to 4.89%. The low-cost SRFP platform has the potential to enable campesino to rapidly detect Ca2+ ions content in bovine serum on-demand in any environmental setting.

Abstract
As the iron content of wine affects the wine quality, a highly selective and simple detection method is needed to detect the iron content in wine. A colourimetric fluorescent probe (BTBAP probe) for the detection of total iron in wine was developed. The quantitative range of Fe2+/3+ content detected with the probe was 0 to 200 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.16 μM. After 10 min of Fe2+/3+ addition, the luminescence intensity of the BTBAP probe solution gradually decreased with increasing Fe2+/3+ concentration. Moreover, the B and G values of the luminescence photos were linearly related to the concentration of Fe2+/3+ (0-200 μM). BTBAP probe was successfully applied for rapid determination of the Fe2+/3+ concentration of wine. This work demonstrates that BTBAP probe is an excellent tool for rapid determination of the total iron content of wine using only a smartphone and no other professional equipment.

Abstract
There has been rapid progress in the development of fast, sensitive, cheap and low-cytotoxicity micro-molecule fluorescent probes for application in various fields, including disease diagnosis, food safety and environmental safety. As an analytical tool, dual-function fluorescent probes with dual-emission responses have attracted considerable attention due to their cost-effectiveness and efficiency over single-function sensors. This review primarily describes research progress on multifunctional probes in terms of the reaction type and coordination type, as well as the general design principles of probes. The analytes include reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive sulfur species (RSS), harmful cations and anions, etc. Multifunctional probes for food, medical and environmental applications are listed for future research. To improve the development of rapid detection methods, trends and strategies in the development of multifunctional fluorescent probes are also discussed.

Abstract
A novel D-π-A type fluorescent probe (probe 1) was developed for water content detection in organic solvents. By analyzing the relationship between fluorescence and water content, the probe was successfully applied to determine trace water content in tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, 2-butanone, acetone, dimethylformamide, and acetonitrile. High water content in THF and ethyl acetate was associated with a gradual colour change from yellowish green to earthy yellow. The red/green value had a linear relationship with the water content in THF and ethyl acetate. There was a linear relationship between the red/blue value and water content in 2-butanone and acetone. Furthermore, probe 1 could be used for human serum albumin detection. Unexpectedly, probe 1 had a different colour response in deuterated and nondeuterated solvents, and had different fluorescence intensity and fluorescence emission wavelength. Probe 1 is rare tool that can distinguish between deuterated and nondeuterated reagents.

Abstract
Hg2+ is one of the most toxic heavy metal ions that exist in the environment and it forms large numbers of toxic binary compounds. Accurate and rapid detection of the concentration of heavy metal ions is a prerequisite technology to achieve pollution control and prevention. Fluorescent probes have attracted extensive attention because of their high sensitivity, prominent precision, convenient and fast visualization of heavy metals. Herein, we report multi-layered graphitic carbon nitride via a simple thermopolymerization treatment as a very effectual fluorescent probe for sensitive and selective detection of Hg2+ with a limit of detection as low as 1.14 nM.

Abstract
The development of functional materials with uniquely advanced properties lies at the core of nanoscience and nanotechnology. From the myriad possible combinations of organic and/or inorganic blocks, hybrids combining metal nanoclusters and carbon nanomaterials have emerged as highly attractive colloidal materials for imaging, sensing (optical and electrochemical) and catalysis, among other applications. While the metal nanoclusters provide extraordinary luminescent and electronic properties, the carbon nanomaterials (of zero, one or two dimensions) convey versatility, as well as unique interfacial, electronic, thermal, optical, and mechanical properties, which altogether can be put to use for the desired application. Herein, we present an overview of the field, for experts and non-experts, encompassing the basic properties of the building blocks, a systematic view of the chemical preparation routes and physicochemical properties of the hybrids, and a critical analysis of their ongoing and emerging applications. Challenges and opportunities, including directions towards green chemistry approaches, are also discussed.

Abstract
For rapid and portable detection of ethylene in commercial fruit ripening storage rooms, we designed a smartphone-based optical fiber sensor (SOFS), which is composed of a 15 mW 365 nm laser for fluorescence signal excitation and a bifurcated fiber system for signal flow direction from probe to smartphone. Paired with a pyrene-tagged Grubbs catalyst (PYG) probe, our SOFS showed a wide linearity range up to 350 ppm with a detection limit of 0.6 ppm. The common gases in the warehouse had no significant interference with the results. The device is portable (18 cm × 8 cm × 6 cm) with an inbuilt power supply and replaceable optical fiber sensor tip. The images are processed with a dedicated smartphone application for RGB analysis and ethylene concentration. The device was applied in detection of ethylene generated from apples, avocados, and bananas. The linear correlation data showed agreement with data generated from a fluorometer. The SOFS provides a rapid, compact, cost-effective solution for determination of the fruit ethylene concentration dynamic during ripening for better fruit harvest timing and postharvest management to minimize wastage.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) impacts every aspect of life, and numerous sensing technologies have been established to detect and monitor this ubiquitous molecule. However, its selective sensing at the molecular level remains an unmet challenge, despite the tremendous potential of such an approach for understanding this molecule's role in complex environments. In this work, we introduce a unique class of selective fluorescent carbon dioxide molecular sensors (CarboSen) that addresses these existing challenges through an activity-based approach. Besides the design, synthesis, and evaluation of these small molecules as CO2 sensors, we demonstrate their utility by tailoring their reactivity and optical properties, allowing their use in a broad spectrum of multidisciplinary applications, including atmospheric sensing, chemical reaction monitoring, enzymology, and live-cell imaging. Collectively, these results showcase the potential of CarboSen sensors as broadly applicable tools to monitor and visualize carbon dioxide across multiple disciplines.
