[PMID: 38103299 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.133253] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
In this study, we have successfully developed a novel dual-response fluorescent probe, NACou, designed for the visual and quantitative detection of HClO/H2S in real water samples and liquid beverages by a thin-film sensing platform. Additionally, NACou demonstrated efficacy for sensing HClO/H2S in HeLa cells, plants and zebrafish through distinct fluorescent channels, yielding satisfactory results. NACou exhibited a multi-modal fluorescence response mechanism for detecting HClO and H2S with remarkable low detection limits of 27.8 nM and 34.4 nM, accompanied by outstanding fluorescent enhancement (209-fold and 148-fold, respectively). These advantages position NACou as a potent molecular tool for HClO and H2S sensing. The specific recognition performance of NACou towards HClO/H2S were confirmed through fluorescence spectroscopy, mass analysis and UV-vis spectroscopy. Importantly, the thin-film sensing platform with the visible fluorescence change can enable rapid assays for water quality and food safety monitoring, showcasing significant practical application value. Impressively, NACou has been employed in warning against liver injury induced by multiple drugs, allowing for the exploration of the pathogenesis and degree of drug-induced injury.

Two red/blue-emitting fluorescent probes for quick, portable, and selective detection of thiophenol in food, soil and plant samples, and their applications in bioimaging. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 465:133464. [PMID: 38237433 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024]
Abstract
Thiophenol (PhSH), which is widely used in many industries, poses significant health risks owing to its acute toxicity and irritating effects. Thus, the detection of PhSH is crucial for ensuring environmental and food safety. There is significant room for improvement in the sensing properties of the reported analytical methods, such as response time, detection limit, selectivity, and portable detection. Herein, we present two new red/blue fluorescence-emissive sensors (NS1 and NS2) for PhSH detection. After reacting with PhSH, NS1 exhibited a low detection limit (66.7 nM), red emission, fast response time of just 10 s, and large Stokes shift (240 nm). NS2 could detect PhSH with a low detection limit (75.8 nM), fast response time of 20 s, and blue emission. The noticeable color response and portability of the two probes made them suitable for on-site detection of PhSH in various samples, such as water, soil, plant, food samples, and living cells. Moreover, it has been shown that these probes could be used to determine PhSH content in smartphone applications, thin layer chromatography kits, and polysulfone capsule kits. Prepared probes have low cytotoxicity and show good permeability in tested living cells, which is important for early diagnosis, disease research, and emergency analysis. Compared with other studies, the proposed approach has remarkable advantages in terms of detection limit, portability, response time, and low cytotoxicity. Thus, it meets the crucial demand for ensuring health, environmental and food safety, and adherence to regulatory standards.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 465:133165. [PMID: 38061127 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.133165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2024]
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
Thiophenols (ArSHs) are widely used as popular flavoring ingredients for making daily dishes. Dissecting the ArSHs contents in common foodstuffs is meaningful in the field of food safety science. Herein, a novel small-molecule sensor 2-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-3-(2-(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)-4-morpholinophenyl)acrylonitrile (NOSA) has been tailored. The NOSA is able to respond to ArSHs, spontaneously yielding highly green-emissive fluorescent iminocoumarin (I500). This cascade reaction-based strategy is sensitive (limit-of-detection = 2.8 nM), rapid (within 5 min), and selective toward ArSH flavors. Probe NOSA has been applied to the determination of ArSHs in real-life meat products and condiments. Moreover, a far-red fluorescent compound, 2-(7-(diethylamino)-4-(4-(methylthio)styryl)-2H-chromen-2-ylidene)malononitrile (CMMT), has been first combined with NOSA to construct a composite probe NOSA@CMMT for the ratiometric detection of ArSHs (I500/I630). System NOSA@CMMT exhibits a conspicuous fluorescence change from deep-red to light-green. Benefitted from the gorgeous chromatic fluctuation, a smartphone-integrated analysis platform is established for the real-time evaluation of ArSHs level.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously generated gaseous signaling molecule and is known to be involved in the occurrence and development of inflammation. To better understand its physiological and pathological process of inflammation, reliable tools for H2S detection in living inflammatory models are desired. Although a number of fluorescent sensors have been reported for H2S detection and imaging, water-soluble and biocompatibility nanosensors are more useful for imaging in vivo. Herein, we developed a novel biological imaging nanosensor, XNP1, for inflammation-targeted imaging of H2S. XNP1 was obtained by self-assembly of amphiphilic XNP1, which was constructed by the condensation reaction of the hydrophobic, H2S response and deep red-emitting fluorophore with hydrophilic biopolymer glycol chitosan (GC). Without H2S, XNP1 showed very low background fluorescence, while a significant enhancement in the fluorescence intensity of XNP1 was observed in the presence of H2S, resulting in a high sensitivity toward H2S in aqueous solution with a practical detection limit as low as 32.3 nM, which could be meet the detection of H2S in vivo. XNP1 also has a good linear response concentration range (0-1 μM) toward H2S with high selectivity over other competing species. These characteristics facilitate direct H2S detection of the complex living inflammatory cells and drug-induced inflammatory mice, demonstrating its practical application in biosystems.

Rational design of a negative photochromic spiropyran-containing fluorescent polymeric nanoprobe for sulfur dioxide derivative ratiometric detection and cell imaging. Anal Bioanal Chem 2023; 415:715-724.

Abstract
It is highly desirable to develop high-performance ratiometric fluorescent probes for SO2 derivative detection and realize their application in biological imaging. In this study, we report the rational design of a novel negative photochromic spiropyran derivative, spiro[azahomoadamantane-pyran] (MAHD-SP), with notable orange fluorescence in its stable ring-opened state without UV regulation. The unsaturated double bond of MAHD-SP underwent the Michael addition reaction of the SO2 derivative, making the fluorescence quenching of MAHD-SP obvious. Then, MAHD-SP, a fluorescent conjugated polymer PFO and a polymeric surfactant PEO113-b-PS49 were used to construct a ratiometric fluorescent polymeric nanoprobe (RFPN) via a coprecipitation method. The probe exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for the ratiometric detection of SO2 derivatives in pure aqueous solutions. Moreover, the good biocompatibility of RFPN can be used to visualize exogenous and endogenous SO2 derivative generation in living cells.

Abstract
Dye recovery is of great significance for a circular economy and sustainable development. However, green recovery strategies without secondary pollution remain a significant challenge. To resolve this issue, a light-responsive smart material (citric acid-modified BiOCOOH (m-BOCH)) was synthesized and applied for dye recovery through adsorption in the dark, and desorption under visible light. With the modification of citric acid, the adsorption level of methylene blue (MB) on m-BOCH (43.4%) was more than six times that of pure BiOCOOH (7.1%). The desorption rate was ∼90% in 120 min under 420 nm light irradiation (there was no desorption for pure BOCH). Further, the adsorption rate was improved to 83.9% and the desorption rate remained stable at an optimal pH of 10.09. Characterization results indicated that carboxyl groups were modified onto the surface of BiOCOOH and served as adsorption sites for MB. Under visible light exposure, the connections between the carboxyl groups and BiOCOOH were damaged, which led to the desorption of MB from the surface of the m-BOCH. The recovered MB exhibited a good staining effect on hepatic stellate cells (HSC) as a fresh dye. The regeneration of m-BOCH was achieved through a moderate hydrothermal process, and the adsorption and desorption capacities were restored to 80.8% and 85.7%, respectively. This research provides a novel environmentally compatible strategy for dye recovery without secondary pollution. This is a very promising treatment technique for dye effluents, which highlights the application of smart materials resource recycling for environmental remediation.
