Abstract
Developing rapid tetracycline sensing system is of great significance to monitor the illegal addition to drugs and pollution to food and ecosystem. By loading covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with Eu3+, a new hybridized material (COF@Eu3+) was prepared for tetracycline determination. Based on the Schiff base reaction, the COFs were by synthesized through solvent evaporation in 30 min at room temperature. Thereafter, Eu3+ was modified into COFs to develop the COF@Eu3+ sensing platform by adsorption and coordination. In presence of tetracycline, tetracycline can displace water molecules and coordinate with Eu3+ through the antenna effect. As a result, the red fluorescence of Eu3+ was enhanced by tetracycline with green fluorescence of COF as a reference. The developed ratiometric fluorescence sensor exhibits a linear range of 0.1-20 μM for detecting tetracycline with a detection limit of 30 nM. Integrated with a smartphone, the rapid tetracycline detection can be realized in situ, which is potential for high-throughput screening of tetracycline contaminated samples. Furthermore, the COF@Eu3+ fluorescence sensor has been successfully applied to the detection of tetracycline in traditional Chinese medicine compound preparation with satisfied recoveries. Therefore, a smartphone-assisted device was successfully developed based on Eu3+-functionalized COF, which is an attractive candidate for further applications of fluorescence sensing and visual detection.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) has been widely used in clinical medicine and animal growth promotion due to its broad-spectrum antibacterial properties and affordable prices. Unfortunately, the high toxicity and difficult degradation rate of TC molecules make them easy to accumulate in the environment, which breaks the ecological balance and seriously threatens human health. Rapid and accurate detection of TC residue levels is important for ensuring water quality and food safety. Recently, fluorescence detection technology of TC residues has developed rapidly. Lanthanide nanomaterials, based on the high luminescence properties of lanthanide ions and the high matching with TC energy levels, are favored in the real-time trace detection of TC due to their advantages of high sensitivity, rapidity, and high selectivity. Therefore, they are considered potential substitutes for traditional detection methods. This review summarizes the synthesis strategy, TC response mechanism, removal mechanism, and applications in intelligent sensing. Finally, the development of lanthanide nanomaterials for TC fluorescence detection and removal is reasonably summarized and prospected. This review provides a reference for the establishment of a method for the accurate determination of TC content in complex food matrices.

Abstract
Medical mineralogy explores the interactions between natural minerals and living organisms such as cells, tissues, and organs and develops therapeutic and diagnostic applications in drug delivery, medical devices, and healthcare materials. Many minerals (especially clays) have been recognized for pharmacological activities and therapeutic potential. Halloysite clay (Chinese medicine name: Chishizhi), manifested as one-dimensional aluminum silicate nanotubes (halloysite nanotubes, HNTs), has gained applications in hemostasis, wound repair, gastrointestinal diseases, tissue engineering, detection and sensing, cosmetics, and daily chemicals formulations. Various biomedical applications of HNTs are derived from hollow tubular structures, high mechanical strength, good biocompatibility, bioactivity, and unique surface characteristics. This natural nanomaterial is safe, abundantly available, and may be processed with environmentally safe green chemistry methods. This review describes the structure and physicochemical properties of HNTs relative to bioactivity. We discuss surface area, porosity and surface defects, hydrophilicity, heterogeneity and charge of external and internal surfaces, as well as biosafety. The paper provides comprehensive guidance for the development of this tubule nanoclay and its advanced biomedical applications for clinical diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
Modern society pays further and further attention to environmental protection and the promotion of sustainable energy solutions. Heterogeneous photocatalysis is widely recognized as one of the most economically viable and ecologically sound technologies to combat environmental pollution and the global energy crisis. One challenge is finding a suitable photocatalytic material for an efficient process. Inorganic nanotubes have garnered attention as potential candidates due to their optoelectronic properties, which differ from their bulk equivalents. Among them, clay nanotubes (halloysite, imogolite, and chrysotile) are attracting renewed interest for photocatalysis applications thanks to their low production costs, their unique physical and chemical properties, and the possibility to functionalize or dope their structure to enhance charge-carriers separation into their structure. In this review, we provide new insights into the potential of these inorganic nanotubes in photocatalysis. We first discuss the structural and morphological features of clay nanotubes. Applications of photocatalysts based on clay nanotubes across a range of photocatalytic reactions, including the decomposition of organic pollutants, elimination of NOx, production of hydrogen, and disinfection of bacteria, are discussed. Finally, we highlight the obstacles and outline potential avenues for advancing the current photocatalytic system based on clay nanotubes. Our aim is that this review can offer researchers new opportunities to advance further research in the field of clay nanotubes-based photocatalysis with other vital applications in the future.

Abstract
The overuse of tetracycline (TC) has led to the accumulation of antibiotic residues in drinking water and animal products, which can consequently lead to bacteria resistance and chronic disease in humans. Urgently addressing the need for a rapid, user-friendly, and point-of-care test for TC detection. In this work, we use cyclen and citric acid to synthesise carbon dots (CDs) with a unique ring-shaped structure on their surface and combine them with europium (Eu3+) to form an Eu-CDs fluorescent probe. In the presence of TC in aqueous systems, the Eu-CDs probe emits two distinctive fluorescent signals: the stable blue emission from cyclen-modified CDs and the red emission from Eu3+,showing a proportional increase with TC concentration. The developed Eu-CDs probe demonstrates accurate and selective detection capabilities for TC class antibiotics among various interfering factors. The Eu-CDs probe exhibits excellent linearity within the concentration range of 0.04-2.4 µM and achieves an impressive detection limit of 2.7 nM. Moreover, point-of-care Eu-CDs test strips are designed, allowing convenient on-site TC analysis through the detection of a colour change from blue to red under a portable UV light. The results highlight the effectiveness of the proposed dual-mode ratiometric fluorescent Eu-CDs probe and test strips, offering a practical point-of-care testing strategy for real-world TC detection applications.

Abstract
In this study, oxidized single-walled carbon nanohorns (oxSWCNHs) were prepared using nitric acid oxidation and subsequently combined with 3'6-carboxyfluorescein through charge transfer to prepare fluorescent probes. These oxSWCNHs were used to quench fluorogen signals at short distances and dissociate ssDNA using cryonase enzymes. We established a method for rapidly detecting tetracycline (TC) in complex samples based on the amplification of cryonase enzyme signals. After optimizing the experimental conditions, our method showed a detection limit of 5.05 ng/mL, with good specificity. This method was used to determine the TC content in complex samples, yielding a recovery rate of 90.0-103.3%. This result validated the efficacy of our method in detecting TC content within complex samples.

Abstract
The increasing pollution of water bodies with organic contaminants, including antibiotics, has become a significant environmental concern. In this study, a noble-metal-free alternative, NiCo bimetal cocatalyst, was synthesized and applied to enhance the photocatalytic degradation of the antibiotic tetracycline (TC) using BiVO4 as the photocatalyst under the visible spectrum. The NiCo-BiVO4 nanocomposite exhibited improved visible light absorption, reduced recombination rate of charge carriers, and enhanced electrochemical properties. The photocatalytic degradation of TC was significantly enhanced by the NiCo bimetal modification, with the 2 wt% NiCo-BiVO4 nanocomposite achieving an 87.2% degradation of TC and 82% Total Organic Carbon (TOC) removal within 120 min. The degradation kinetics of TC (target compound) followed a first-order reaction, with photogenerated electrons and holes identified as the primary active species responsible for the degradation process. The recyclability of the catalyst was also demonstrated for multiple runs, indicating its stability. Furthermore, the pathway of TC degradation by 2 wt% NiCo-BiVO4 nanocomposite was proposed based on the detected intermediate products using LC-MS analysis. This study provides a promising approach for developing efficient, noble-metal-free photocatalysts to remove organic contaminants from water sources.

Abstract
In this work, a rapid, specific, and visual ratiometric fluorescence probe was constructed for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) determination based on zinc-doped carbon quantum dots (Zn-CDs). In the presence of TCH, the blue fluorescence at 440 nm originating from Zn-CDs was quenched, and the green fluorescence at 515 nm stemming from TCH was enhanced. The inner filter effect (IFE) and the chelation between Zn and tetracycline are the main mechanisms for the conversion of spectra. The spectrum and color change completed and stabilized within 1 min, indicating the possibility of real-time detection of TCH. The detection range for TCH is 0.1-50 μM, and the low detection limit is 61.1 nM. In addition, Zn-CDs-based test strips were successfully applied to direct visual identification of TCH in actual samples of river water and milk, indicating the possibility of their practical application.

Abstract
This study addresses the formidable persistence of tetracycline (TC) in the environment and its adverse impact on soil, water, and microbial ecosystems. To combat this issue, an innovative approach by varying polythiophene ((C4H4S)n; n = 3, 5, 7, 9) units and the subsequent interaction with Ti-doped graphene/boron nitride (Ti@GP_BN) nanocomposites was applied as catalysts for investigating the molecular structure, adsorption, excitation analysis, and photodegradation mechanism of tetracycline within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP-gd3bj/def2svp method. This study reveals a compelling correlation between the adsorption potential of the nanocomposites and their corresponding excitation behaviors, particularly notable in the fifth and seventh units of the polythiophene configuration. These units exhibit distinct excitation patterns, characterized by energy levels of 1.3406 and 924.81 nm wavelengths for the fifth unit and 1.3391 and 925.88 nm wavelengths for the seventh unit. Through exploring deeper, the examination of the exciton binding energy emerges as a pivotal factor, bolstering the outcomes derived from both UV-vis transition analysis and adsorption exploration. Notably, the calculated exciton binding energies of 0.120 and 0.103 eV for polythiophene units containing 5 and 7 segments, respectively, provide compelling confirmation of our findings. This convergence of data reinforces the integrity of our earlier analyses, enhancing our understanding of the intricate electronic and energetic interplay within these intricate systems. This study sheds light on the promising potential of the polythiophene/Ti-doped graphene/boron nitride nanocomposite as an efficient candidate for TC photodegradation, contributing to the advancement of sustainable environmental remediation strategies. This study was conducted theoretically; hence, experimental studies are needed to authenticate the use of the studied nanocomposites for degrading TC.

Wang W, Yin Y, Gunasekaran S. Nanozymatic degradation and simultaneous colorimetric detection of tetracycline. Food Chem 2023; 426:136607.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that can enter and accumulate in the human body via the food chain. Even in small concentrations, TC can cause several malignant health effects. We developed a system to simultaneously degrade the presence of TC in food matrices using titanium carbide MXene (FL-Ti3C2Tx). The FL-Ti3C2Tx exhibited biocatalytic property that activates hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) molecules in 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB environment. During the FL-Ti3C2Tx reaction, the catalytic products released turn the color of the H2O2/TMB system bluish-green. However, when TC is present, the bluish-green color does not appear. Via quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry, we found that the TC is degraded by FL-Ti3C2Tx / H2O2 in preference to H2O2/TMB redox reaction, which intervenes in the color change. Hence, we developed a colorimetric assay to detect TC with a LOD of 615.38 nM and proposed two TC degradation pathways that facilitate the highly sensitive colorimetric bioassay.

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
Development of accurate and efficient TCs residue analysis methods is of great significance for the protection of environment, food safety and public health. Herein, a dual-responsive ratiometric fluorescence sensor being capable of simple and sensitive detection of tetracycline (TC) was presented, which was constructed by immobilizing europium ions (Eu3+) onto the mercaptopropionic acid stabilized copper nanoclusters (MPA-Cu NCs). In the presence of TC, the red fluorescence of Eu3+ was enhanced through antenna effect (AE), while the green fluorescence of MPA-Cu NCs was quenched through internal filter effect (IFE), leading to an obvious fluorescence color evolution from green to red for the probe solution. In addition to successful design of a smartphone-assisted colorimetric analysis platform for portable detection, a logic gate device capable of intelligently monitoring TC concentration is also designed.

Abstract
The widespread presence of tetracyclines in the environment has raised concerns about the potential risks to ecosystems and human health. The ratiometric fluorescence sensor for detecting tetracyclines was developed using europium-doped carbon dots (Eu-CDs) as probes under alkaline conditions. The sensing mechanism of sensor for tetracyclines was considered as inner filter effect (IFE), antenna effect (AE), and self-quenching effect (SQE). The sensor had a wide linear detection range than the reported europium ions-based tetracyclines sensors. The linear detection ranges of oxytetracycline (OTC), tetracycline (TC), doxycycline (DC) and chlorotetracycline (CTC) were respectively 0.00-603.75 μM, 0.00-623.82 μM, 0.00-594.61 μM and 0.00-601.54 μM, and the corresponding detection limits were respectively 9.50 nM, 15.80 nM, 10.40 nM and 90.30 nM. The smartphone with RGB Color Picker was further employed to analyze the concentration of tetracyclines, which provided a new method for visual tetracyclines detection. The application of Eu-CDs test paper was also explored, and the results showed that the Eu-CDs test paper has great potential application in the visual detection of tetracyclines. In addition, the accuracy of the established tetracyclines sensor was compared with that of the China national standard method by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the results showed that the established method in this work has similar accuracy to the China national standard method. The sensor has been employed to detect tetracyclines in the actual samples with satisfactory results, which indicated that this method has promising applications in the real-time monitoring tetracyclines of food and environment.

Dual-response fluorescent probe based on nitrogen-doped carbon dots and europium ions hybrid for ratiometric and on-site visual determination of oxytetracycline and tetracycline. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 860:160533. [PMID: 36574552 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.160533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Tetracyclines residues, particularly oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC), have raised extensive concern because of their serious adverse effects on human health. Herein, a dual-response fluorescent probe based on nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) and Eu3+ hybrid (N-CDs-Eu3+) was developed to selectively determine OTC and TC. The N-CDs act as ancillary ligands of Eu3+ and recognition units of OTC/TC, while the Eu3+ ions chelated with N-CDs can also specifically recognize OTC/TC. Upon inclusion of OTC/TC, an enhancement in Eu3+ emission occurs due to the energy transfer from OTC/TC to Eu3+ and the efficient elimination of quenching effect caused by H2O molecule, which is attributed to the incorporation of N-CDs; while the blue fluorescence emitted by the N-CDs decreases under the inner filter effect and static quenching effect caused by OTC/TC. Based on the double and reverse response signals, the ratiometric detection of OTC and TC in the range of 0.1-45 μΜ and 0.1-30 μΜ is achieved with a detection limit of 0.017 and 0.041 μM, respectively. In addition, the noticeable variation in fluorescence color of the probe is integrated with a smartphone-assisted analysis device for the rapid on-site quantitative assay of OTC, where the detection limit is 0.15 μΜ. The results show that this probe performs with excellent specificity and anti-interference for both OTC and TC, and satisfactory detection results are obtained in lake water, milk, and honey samples, thereby confirming that the probe exhibits promising application in food safety and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Noble metal nanostructures are known to confine photon energies to their dimensions with resonant oscillations of their conduction electrons, leading to the ultrahigh enhancement of electromagnetic fields in numerous spectroscopic methods. Of all the possible plasmonic nanomaterials, silver offers the most intriguing properties, such as best field enhancements and tunable resonances in visible-to-near infrared regions. This review highlights the recent developments in silver nanostructured substrates for plasmonic sensing with the main emphasis on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) over the past decade. The main focus is on the synthesis of silver nanostructured substrates via physical vapor deposition and chemical synthesis routes and their applications in each sensing regime. A comprehensive review of recent literature on various possible silver nanostructures prepared through these methodologies is discussed and critically reviewed for various planar and optical fiber-based substrates.

Abstract
Although they are of significant importance for environmental applications, the industrialization of photocatalytic techniques still faces many difficulties, and the most urgent concern is cost control. Natural minerals possess abundant chemical inertia and cost-efficiency, which is suitable for hybridizing with various effective photocatalysts. The use of natural minerals in photocatalytic systems can not only significantly decrease the pure photocatalyst dosage but can also produce a favorable synergistic effect between photocatalyst and mineral substrate. This review article discusses the current progress regarding the use of various mineral classes in photocatalytic applications. Owing to their unique structures, large surface area, and negatively charged surface, silicate minerals could enhance the adsorption capacity, reduce particle aggregation, and promote photogenerated electron-hole pair separation for hybrid photocatalysts. Moreover, controlling the morphology and structure properties of these materials could have a great influence on their light-harvesting ability and photocatalytic activity. Composed of silica and alumina or magnesia, some silicate minerals possess unique orderly organized porous or layered structures, which are proper templates to modify the photocatalyst framework. The non-silicate minerals (referred to carbonate and carbon-based minerals, sulfate, and sulfide minerals and other special minerals) can function not only as catalyst supports but also as photocatalysts after special modification due to their unique chemical formula and impurities. The dye-sensitized minerals, as another natural mineral application in photocatalysis, are proved to be superior photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution and wastewater treatment. This work aims to provide a complete research overview of the mineral-supported photocatalysts and summarizes the common synergistic effects between different mineral substrates and photocatalysts as well as to inspire more possibilities for natural mineral application in photocatalysis.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) and oxytetracycline (OTC) are the most widely used broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents in tetracycline drugs, and their structures and properties are very similar, so it is a great challenge to distinguish and detect these two antibiotics with a single probe at the same time. Herein, a dual-channel fluorescence probe (SiCDs@mMIPs-cit-Eu) was developed by integrating two independent reaction sites with SiCDs-doped mesoporous silica molecular imprinting group and europium complex group into a nanomaterial. The synergistic influence of inner filter effect and "antenna effect" can be guaranteed to solve the distinction between TC and OTC. Moreover, this novel strategy can also sequentially detect TC and OTC in buffer solution and real samples with high sensitivity and selectivity. This method revealed good responses to TC and OTC ranging from 0 to 5.5 μM with a detection limit of 5 and 16 nM, respectively. Combined with the smartphone color-scanning application, the portable and cheap paper-based sensor was designed to realize the multi-color visual on-site detection of TC and OTC. In addition, the logic gate device was constructed according to the fluorescence color change of the probe for TC and OTC, which provided the application possibility for the intelligent detection of the probe.

Abstract
In this work, a ratiometric fluorometric method based on luminol-Europium complex (luminol-Eu) was constructed for the detection of tetracycline (TC). Luminol-Eu, synthesized by self-assembly reaction, displayed a strongly emission peak at 453 nm under excitation at 360 nm which was derived from the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) of the luminol-Eu. In the present of TC, the fluorescence of luminol-Eu at 453 nm was quenched based on inner filter effect (IFE). Meantime, the characteristic emission peak of Eu3+ at 626 nm can be observed thank to antenna effect (AE). Therefore, we proposed a ratiometric fluorometric method for detection of TC, which allowed detection of TC from 0.5 to 80 μM with the detection limit of 39 nM. In addition, the luminol-Eu-based test paper was prepared for visual semi-quantitative detection of TC in real samples based on the color of luminol-Eu change from blue to red under 365 nm ultraviolet light. All of those results indicated that the ratiometric fluorometric strategy was fast, sensitive, and visual for detection of TC.

Abstract
Qualification and quantification of trace organic contaminants necessitates development of highly efficient sensing system, where excited-state inter-ligand proton transfer (ESILPT) provides a feasible pathway to construct efficient chemo-sensors. Herein, a strategically synthesized lanthanide complex, Eu(DBM)3(MeOH)3 (briefly as Eu-DBM-MeOH; DBM = dibenzoylmethane), features two-step ESILPT processes, along with modification on molecular structure and energy band. As a result, Eu-DBM-MeOH exhibits excellent photophysical properties with characteristic luminescence of Eu3+ ion. Benefiting from these merits, the Eu-DBM-MeOH complex acts as ultra-sensitive chemo-sensor toward nanomolar-level nitrofuran antibiotics (nitrofurazone and nitrofurantoin) in water, by disrupting ESILPT processes. Combining the advantages on photophysical property and luminescent sensitivity, ESILPT-active compounds are expected to widen and deepen the research on complex-based luminophores, being potentially useful in trace detection and biological imaging.

Abstract
A composite fluorescent nanoprobe based on metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF) effect of gelatin-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@gel) was developed for selective and sensitive detection of dopamine (DA). The characteristic fluorescence of Tb(III) was using as the detection signal and AgNPs@gel served as substrates of the MEF. Gelatin with rich amine and carboxylic groups was used not only as a co-ligand of Tb(III) complex, but also as a bridging substance and a spacing material for improving the MEF of AgNPs@gel on the intrinsic luminescent intensity of Tb(III). Under the optimal conditions, the increment of the fluorescence intensity (measured at 307/544 nm as excitation/emission wavelength) of the system increased linearly with the concentration of DA in the range of 0.80-100 nM (R2 = 0.9937) and 100-1000 nM (R2 = 0.9978). The fluorescent probe greatly improved Tb(III) luminescence, which paved the way for sensitive detection with a low detection limit of 0.54 nM. It also showed good selectivity among other neurotransmitters. This work was successfully applied to the determination of DA in human serum samples with recoveries ranging from 99.8 to 102.2%. We believe that the Tb(III)-DA-AgNPs@gel composite fluorescent probe can be developed as a new approach for DA detection.

Abstract
The colorimetric method can determine the initial results even by the naked eyes, but its main challenge for antibiotics detection in food at present is the relatively low sensitivity. Herein, an ultrasensitive colorimetric biosensor based on G-quadruplex DNAzyme was firstly proposed for the rapid detection of trace tetracycline antibiotics like tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline. DNAzyme composed of hemin and G-quadruplex has peroxidase-like activity, and tetracyclines can combine with hemin to form a stable complex and reduce catalytic activity, making the color of solution changes from yellow to green. The limits of detection (LOD) of the proposed colorimetric biosensor for tetracyclines is determined as low as 3.1 nM, which is lower than most of the other colorimetric methods for antibiotics detection. Moreover, the average recovery range of tetracyclines in actual samples is from 89% to 99%, indicating that such strategy may has bright application prospects for tetracyclines detection in foods.

Abstract
Nowadays, numerous studies have focused on the newly developed technologies for the thorough removal of tetracyclines (TCs). The efficient removal of trace-amount pollutants requires the development of improved materials with higher adsorption capacity and increased adsorption selectivity. Zn(II)-mediated chitosan nonwoven fabric (Zn-CSNW) adsorbent with coordination capability was explored for the effective and selective removal of TC. The adsorption of TC to Zn-CSNW could reach equilibrium in about 30 min with a maximum adsorption capacity of 195.9 mg/g. It exhibited high anti-interference performance for TC adsorption at low concentrations, with good regeneration and effective reuse. Except for citrate, organic materials similar in structure to TC or common ions in aqueous solutions did not show obvious competition for the adsorption of low concentrations of TC. Additionally, the inherent fluorescence of chitosan and the fluorescence sensitization effect of Zn2+ for TC enabled function of Zn-CSNW as an indicator of the adsorption of TC by changes in fluorescence color and intensity under UV light (365 nm). It can indicate the saturation state of the Zn-CSNW, which will bring convenience to the use of the adsorbent. The Zn(II)-mediated coordination interaction plays a vital role in both the selective recognition of TC and the fluorescence sensing of adsorption amount, demonstrating an affordable and effective strategy for the treatment of water containing low amounts of antibiotics.

Abstract
A simple and rapid colorimetric assay for determination of mercury(II) ion (Hg2+) in aqueous solutions was developed based on aggregation of gold/silver alloy nanocomposites (Au/Ag NCs). Au/Ag NCs were aggregated after the addition of Hg2+ and the positively charged amino acid, lysine. The different aggregation degrees of Au/Ag NCs is indicated by variations in the absorption spectra and accompanied by a color change from orange yellow to yellowish green. Under the optimal conditions, the shift of absorbance ratio (A650/A447) was proportional to Hg2+ concentrations in the range of 0.01-10.0 μM. The limit of detection is 4.8 nM. The proposed colorimetric assay was extremely specific for Hg2+ and other environmentally relevant metal ions did not interfere with the determination.

Abstract
Ultrasensitive and visual detection of tetracycline antibiotic (TC) residues is of great significance to public health and environmental safety. A novel dual-response ratiometric fluorescent nano-probe (SiQDs-Cit-Eu) has been elaborately tailored for the determination and on-site visual assay of tetracycline, by grafting citric acid and europium (Eu3+) ions onto the surface of silicon quantum dots (SiQDs). The blue-emissive SiQDs (λem = 455 nm) fabricated by a one-step facile method act as both scaffold for coordination with Eu3+ ions and recognition unit for TC owing to the inner filter effect (IFE). The coordinate unsaturated red-fluorescent Eu3+ ions (λem = 617 nm) bond to the surface of SiQDs, serving as the specific recognition element for TC due to the antenna effect. In the presence of TC, the as-synthesized nano-probe exhibits double (λem = 455 and 617 nm) and reverse response signals which are accompanied by a marked color change from blue to purple, and then red, thus achieving ultra-high sensitivity with a detection limit of 7.1 nM and instant visual detection of TC in real samples (milk, honey, lake and river water). Furthermore, smartphone-assisted point-of-care testing platform is also constructed based on nano-probe-immobilized test paper by using the color scanning APP.

Abstract
Fluorescence analytical methods, as real time and in situ analytical approaches to target analytes, can offer advantages of high sensitivity/selectivity, great versatility, non-invasive measurement and easy transmission over long distances. However, the conventional fluorescence assay still suffers from low specificity, insufficient sensitivity, poor reliability and false-positive responses. By exploiting various metal nanoarchitectures to manipulate fluorescence, both increased fluorescence quantum yield and improved photostability can be realized. This metal nanoarchitecture-enhanced fluorescence (MEF) phenomenon has been extensively studied and used in various sensors over the past years, which greatly improved their sensing performance. Thus in this review, we primarily give a general overview of MEF based sensors from mechanisms to state-of-the-art applications in environmental assays, biological/medical analysis and diagnosis areas. Finally, their pros and cons as well as further development directions are also discussed.

Abstract
A novel metal enhanced chemiluminescence (MEC) nanosensor was developed for ultrasensitive biosensing and imaging, based on functional DNA dendrimer (FDD), proximity-dependent DNAzyme and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The FDD containing two split G-quadruplex structures was prepared through an enzyme-free and step-by-step assembly strategy, and then reacted with AgNPs and hemin molecules to form the FDD/hemin/AgNPs facilely. Such a MEC nanosensor consisted of three modules: FDD (scaffold), the generated G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme (signal reporter) and AgNPs (chemiluminescence enhancer). The MEC effect was achieved by controlling the length of DNA sequences between AgNPs on the periphery of FDD and DNAzymes inside it. Such nanosensor exhibited 9-fold amplification and another 6.4-fold metal enhancement in chemiluminescence intensity, which can be easily applied into trace detection of multiple protein markers using a disposable protein immunoarray. The FDD/hemin/AgNPs-based multiplex MEC imaging assay showed wide linear ranges over 5 orders of magnitude and detection limits down to 5× 10-5 ng L-1 and 1.8 × 10-4 U mL-1 for cardiac troponin T and carcinoma antigen 125, demonstrating a promising potential in application to protein analysis and clinical diagnosis. Moreover, the MEC nanosensor can be effectively delivered into cells with excellent biocompatibility and outstanding stability, offering a new tool for detection of intracellular targets and suggesting wide applications in bioassay.

Abstract
Nitrocellulose membrane (NCM) can produce hydroxyl radicals under illumination, which promotes the oxidative degradation of organic pollutants. In this paper, NCM was used to oxidize bisphenol A (BPA) under simulated sunlight. The effects of pH, temperature, light intensity, anion and cation on the degradation of BPA were analyzed. The photodegradation process of BPA was discussed. The optimal photolysis rate was 0.031 min-1 when the temperature was 30°C, the light intensity was 2.67 × 104 Lux, and the pH value was 9.0. The alkaline environment, temperature and light intensity can promote the photodegradation of BPA. Except for nitrate ions, anions and cations can inhibit the photodegradation of BPA. Compared with cations, anions have a greater inhibitory effect on BPA degradation. The degradation products of BPA by NCM were analyzed by gas chromatographic/mass. This study may provide useful information for the BPA degradation by NCM in complex water samples.

[PMID: 33254787 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.123776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2020] [Revised: 08/15/2020] [Accepted: 08/18/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
The metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) functionalized palygorskite (Pal) hybrid as a novel multicolor fluorescence probe for the detection of bacterial spore biomarker-dipicolinic acid (DPA), had been prepared via in-situ growth. The MOFs can effectively encapsulate dye molecules on the surface of Pal, and the rich carboxyl groups on its surface can coordinate with europium ions (Eu3+), forming a highly sensitive recognition group. The results indicated that the limit of detection (LOD) of this multicolor fluorescence probe was as low as 9.3 nM and was obviously lower than the amount of anthrax spores infecting the human body (60 μM). Moreover, a wide linear range from 0 to 35 μM was obtained. The high specific surface area of Pal, as well as the permanent porosity and suitable binding sites of Eu3+-doped MOFs may play a major role in the sensitivity and linear detection range. The multicolor fluorescence strategy made full use of the diversity of fluorescence signals collected by dye molecules and lanthanide ions, which can realize the real-time and on-site detection through the smartphone with a color-scanning application (APP). The practicability of this probe was further verified by detecting DPA released by non-infectious Bacillus subtilis.

Abstract
A ternary photocatalyst, Fe3O4-loaded g-C3N4/C-layered composite (g-C3N4/C/Fe3O4) was fabricated by a facile sonication and in situ precipitation technique. Carbon nanosheets were prepared using the remaining non-metallic components of waste printed circuit boards as carbon sources. In this hybrid structure, g-C3N4 was immobilized on the surfaces of carbon nanosheets to form a layered composite, and 10-15 nm Fe3O4 nanoparticles are uniformly deposited on the surface of the composite material. The photocatalytic performance of the catalyst was studied by degrading tetracycline (TC) under simulated sunlight. The results showed that the photoactivity of the g-C3N4/C/Fe3O4 composite to TC was significantly enhanced, and the degradation rate was 10.07 times higher than that of pure g-C3N4, which was attributed to Fe3O4 nanoparticles and carbon nanosheets. Carbon sheets with good conductivity are an excellent electron transporter, which promotes the separation of photogenerated carriers and the Fe3O4 nanoparticles can utilize electrons effectively as a center of oxidation-reduction. Moreover, a possible photocatalytic mechanism for the excellent photocatalytic performance was proposed.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) with blue fluorescence were synthesized using indole-3-butyric acid and l-tryptophan using a one-step hydrothermal method. The CDs were further employed as a fluorescent sensor with high selectivity for colorimetric and ratiometric detection of tetracycline (TC) in water. The limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 0.33 μM for TC with R2 = 0.98387. Besides, the CDs could be applied in practical water samples and showed good recovery.

Abstract
Residues in animal food and drinking water caused by the abuse of antibiotics lead to cell resistance and many chronic diseases in the human body. Therefore, it has become an inevitable trend to develop a fast, easy-to-use, on-site/real-time visualization method for the detection of antibiotics. Herein, we report a dual-response ratiometric fluorescence sensor which is fabricated by chelating europium ions (Eu3+) onto cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs) for real-time and visible detection of tetracycline (TC). With the TC addition, the fluorescence of probe can be seen by the naked eye, from green to yellow and finally to red, exhibiting a dosage-sensitive and broad-chromatic detection strategy for TC. The fluorescence intensity ratio of I616/I512 of Eu/CdTe QDs sensor displays a good linear relation to TC concentrations in the range of 0-80 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.2 nM. In addition, the sensor can visually detect 200 nM TC in actual samples, which is lower than the maximum residue limit (MRL) of the safety standard. The methodology reported here opens a window toward the real applications of fluorescent and shows the wide applicability in pursuing the concepts simple, rapid, visual, and real-time for food safety and environmental protection.

Abstract
Development of selective and sensitive methods for on-site assay of tetracycline (TC) is of great significance for public health and food safety. Herein, a valid ratiometric fluorescence strategy using g-C3N4 nanosheets coupled with Eu3+ is designed for the assay of TC. In this strategy, both Eu3+ and g-C3N4 nanosheets serve as the recognition units of TC. The blue fluorescence of g-C3N4 nanosheets can be quenched by TC via the inner filter effect (IFE); meanwhile, the red fluorescence of Eu3+ can be enhanced by TC through the antenna effect (AE). The synergistic effect of AE and IFE caused by TC makes the developed ratiometric fluorescent sensor display a wide linear range for TC from 0.25 to 80 μM with a detection limit of 6.5 nM and a significant fluorescence color evolution from blue to red. Given its simplicity, free-label, excellent selectivity, high sensitivity, and recognizable color change, point-of-care testing systems, including smartphones and test paper-based assays, are developed for the visual sensing of TC. The integration of smartphones and test paper on a ratiometric fluorescent sensor greatly reduces the detection cost and time, providing a promising method for the qualitative discernment and semi-quantitative assay of TC on-site. Moreover, the potential application of the approach is also verified by detecting TC in milk.

Abstract
Antimonene quantum dots (AMQDs) are attracting considerable attention due to their fascinating physicochemical properties. However, research on their semiconductor characteristics, especially the photoluminescence performance, is still in a preliminary stage and the experimental verification is scarcely reported, significantly restricting their further applications. Herein, the photoluminescence property of AMQDs is experimentally verified. The AMQDs are prepared by probe sonication-assisted liquid-phase exfoliation and show robust blue fluorescence, and the photoluminescence is hardly affected by pH. In view of the derivatization reaction of tetracyclines (TET) at different pHs, AMQDs are developed as a pH-mediated dual-channel ratiometric fluorescent probe for TET detection. Under acidic conditions, the AMQDs' probe exhibits unique recognition behavior due to the inherent fluorescence of TET and the solvent-enhancing effect, that is, the fluorescence changes from blue to red. Under alkaline conditions, this fluorescent probe realizes the transition from blue to yellow-green because of the decomposition of TET. The limits of detection are 27 × 10-9 and 74 × 10-9 m, respectively. The high sensitivity and remarkable fluorescence changes make AMQDs ideal probes for TET sensing. Additionally, this is the first report on the photoluminescence property of AMQDs. It is believed that this work will open a new avenue for AMQDs in optical sensing fields.
