Abstract
The objective of this study was to design, develop, and quantify the effectiveness of a simple method to facilitate the smart delivery of antimicrobial essential oils (EOs) via their absorption into a chemically bound high surface area support material. To this end, Santa Barbara Amorphous 15 (SBA-15) was functionalized by means of a post-synthetic reaction using (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) to create an amine-terminated SBA-15 (SBA-APTES), and functionalization was confirmed by FTIR, TGA, and N2 isotherm analysis. Amine-modified SBA-15 was then grafted to a 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTS)-modified silicon (Si) surface (Si-GPTS), and subsequent attachment to the GPTS-modified surface was confirmed through XPS, dynamic contact angle, and SEM analysis. The smart delivery devices (SBA-15 and SBA-APTES) were then loaded with antimicrobial oregano essential oil (OEO) and the antimicrobial activity was assessed against common food spoilage microorganisms Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas fluorescens. Antimicrobial activity results indicate that both SBA-OEO and SBA-APTES-OEO have good antimicrobial activity and that functionalization of bare SBA-15 with APTES has no effect on antimicrobial activity (P > 0.05) compared to SBA-OEO. Moreover, it appears that direct surface coating of the modified SBA to a surface substrate may not provide a significant quantity of oil needed to elicit an antimicrobial response. Nevertheless, given the strong absorption properties of SBA materials, good antimicrobial activity, and the GRAS nature of SBA-OEO and SBA-APTES-OEO, the results found in this study open potential applications of the functionalized carrier materials.

Abstract
Film-based fluorescent sensors have become an important field of sensor research due to abundant acquirable signals, real-time monitoring, and ease of miniaturization and integration, where chemically sensitive films are the most vital component of the sensor devices. In this feature article, we introduce hardware structures of film-based fluorescent sensors following the examination/investigation of the recent progress of such sensors with perylene bisimide (PBI) derivatives as sensing fluorophores in the films. PBI derivatives were specially chosen because of their outstanding chemical, photochemical, and thermal stabilities as well as their unusual high-fluorescence quantum yields. And finally, we provide a prediction for the future developments and challenges of this emerging field.

Abstract
Luminescent metal-organic frameworks (LMOFs) containing fluorescent probes for the detection of pollutants such as organic solvents and heavy metals are becoming increasingly important, with lanthanide-MOF (Ln-MOF) materials receiving greater attention owing to the possibility of achieving fine-tuned luminescent properties. Herein, two unusual isostructural nanocage-based three-dimensional Ln-MOFs, 1-Ln (Ln=Tb, Eu), are constructed, using a new diisophthalate ligand with active Lewis basic triazole sites. Selective gas adsorption, especially the removal of CO2 from CH4 , a primary component of natural gas and biogas, is desirable in terms of both economic and environmental considerations. 1-Eu is found to exhibit highly efficient luminescent sensing for Fe3+ cations and Cr2 O7 2- anions, as well as selective CO2 capture over CH4 .

Abstract
Luminescent films have received great interest for chemo-/bio-sensing applications due to their distinct advantages over solution-based probes, such as good stability and portability, tunable shape and size, non-invasion, real-time detection, extensive suitability in gas/vapor sensing, and recycling. On the other hand, they can achieve selective and sensitive detection of chemical/biological species using special luminophores with a recognition moiety or the assembly of common luminophores and functional materials. Nowadays, the extensively used assembly techniques include drop-casting/spin-coating, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB), self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), layer-by-layer (LBL), and electrospinning. Therefore, this review summarizes the recent advances in luminescent films with these assembly techniques and their applications in chemo-/bio-sensing. We mainly focused on the discussion of the relationship between the sensing properties of the films and their architecture. Furthermore, we discussed some critical challenges existing in this field and possible solutions that have been or are being developed to overcome these challenges.

Abstract
The detection of explosives is one of the current pressing concerns in global security. In the past few decades, a large number of emissive sensing materials have been developed for the detection of explosives in vapor, solution, and solid states through fluorescence methods. In recent years, great efforts have been devoted to develop new fluorescent materials with various sensing mechanisms for detecting explosives in order to achieve super-sensitivity, ultra-selectivity, as well as fast response time. This review article starts with a brief introduction on various sensing mechanisms for fluorescence based explosive detection, and then summarizes in an exhaustive and systematic way the state-of-the-art of fluorescent materials for explosive detection with a focus on the research in the recent 5 years. A wide range of fluorescent materials, such as conjugated polymers, small fluorophores, supramolecular systems, bio-inspired materials and aggregation induced emission-active materials, and their sensing performance and sensing mechanism are the centerpiece of this review. Finally, conclusions and future outlook are presented and discussed.

Abstract
Fluorescent pyrene-polyethersulfone (Py-PES) nanofibers were prepared through electrospinning technique using mixed solvents. The effects of mixed solvent ratio and polymer/fluorophore concentrations on electrospun nanofiber's morphology and its sensing performance were systematically investigated and optimized. The Py-PES nanofibers prepared under optimized conditions were further applied for highly sensitive detection of explosives, such as picric acid (PA), 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT), and 1,3,5-trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) in aqueous phase with limits of detection (S/N = 3) of 23, 160, 400, and 980 nM, respectively. The Stern-Volmer (S-V) plot for Py excimer fluorescence quenching by PA shows two linear regions at low (0-1 μM) and high concentration range (>1 μM) with a quenching constant of 1.263 × 10(6) M(-1) and 5.08 × 10(4) M(-1), respectively. On the contrary, S-V plots for Py excimer fluorescence quenching by TNT, DNT, and RDX display an overall linearity in the entire tested concentration range. The fluorescence quenching by PA can be attributed to the fact that both photoinduced electron transfer and energy transfer are involved in the quenching process. In addition, pyrene monomer fluorescence is also quenched and exhibits different trends for different explosives. Fluorescence lifetime studies have revealed a dominant static quenching mechanism of the current fluorescent sensors for explosives in aqueous solution. Selectivity study demonstrates that common interferents have an insignificant effect on the emission intensity of the fluorescent nanofibers in aqueous phase, while reusability study indicates that the fluorescent nanofibers can be regenerated. Spiked real river water sample was also tested, and negligible matrix effect on explosives detection was observed. This research provides new insights into the development of fluorescent explosive sensor with high performance.

Abstract
Efficient detection, removal, and recovery of heavy metal ions from aqueous environments represents a technologically challenging and ecologically urgent question in the face of increasing metal-related pollution and poisoning across the globe. Although small-molecule and entrapment-based nanoparticle sensors have been extensively explored for metal detection, neither of these extant strategies satisfies the critical needs for high-performance sensors that are inexpensive, efficient, and recyclable. Here we first report the development of a regenerable fluorescent nanosensor system for the selective and sensitive detection of multiple heavy metal ions, based on light-switchable monolayer self-assembly and host-guest interactions. The system exploits photocontrolled inclusion and exclusion responses of an α-cyclodextrin (CD)-containing surface conjugated with photoisomerizable azobenzene as a supramolecular system that undergoes reversible assembly and disassembly. The metal nanosensors can be facilely fabricated and photochemically switched between three chemically distinct entities, each having an excellent capacity for selective detecting specific metal ions (namely, Cu(2+), Fe(3+), Hg(2+)) in a chemical system and in assays on actual water samples with interfering contaminants.

Abstract
This article describes the preparation of pyrene confined mesostructured silica nanoparticles for the trace detection of trinitrotoluene (TNT) in the aqueous phase. Pyrene confined mesostructured silica nanoparticles were prepared using a facile one-pot method where pyrene molecules were first encapsulated in the hydrophobic parts of cetyltrimethylammonium micelles and then silica polymerized around these micelles. The resulting hybrid particles have sizes of around 75 nm with fairly good size distribution. Also, they are highly dispersible and colloidally stable in water. More importantly, they exhibit bright and highly stable pyrene excimer emission. We demonstrated that excimer emission of the particles exhibits a rapid, sensitive and visual quenching response against TNT. The detection limit for TNT was determined to be 12 nM. Furthermore, excimer emission of pyrene shows significantly high selectivity for TNT.

Abstract
A dansyl-functionalized fluorescent film sensor was specially designed and prepared by assembling dansyl on a glass plate surface via a long flexible spacer containing oligo(oxyethylene) and amine units. The chemical attachment of dansyl moieties on the surface was verified by contact angle, XPS, and fluorescence measurements. Solvent effect examination revealed that the polarity-sensitivity was retained for the surface-confined dansyl moieties. Fluorescence quenching studies in water declared that the dansyl-functionalized SAM possesses a higher sensitivity towards Hg(2+) and Cu(2+) than the other tested divalent metal ions including Zn(2+), Cd(2+), Co(2+), and Pb(2+). Further measurements of the fluorescence responses of the film towards Cu(2+) and Hg(2+) in three solvents including water, acetonitrile, and THF evidenced that the present film exhibits cross-reactive responses to these two metal ions. The combined signals from the three solvents provide a recognition pattern for both metal ions at a certain concentration and realize the identification between Hg(2+) and Cu(2+). Moreover, using principle component analysis, this method can be extended to identify metal ions that are hard to detect by the film sensor in water such as Co(2+) and Ni(2+).

Abstract
Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) based molecules 5 and 6 have been designed and synthesized. These planar coronenes are appended with rotors to invoke aggregation induced emission enhancement (AIEE) phenomenon by controlling the ratio of H2O in solutions of aggregates. These aggregates of HBC derivatives serve as highly selective chemosensors for picric acid (PA) in mixed aqueous solution. These aggregates are also able to detect PA in vapor phase. In addition, fluorescent test strips have been prepared by dip-coating the Whatman paper with aggregates of both compounds for trace detection of PA in contact mode with detection limits in attograms.

Abstract
A multichannel fluorescence detector used to detect nitroaromatic explosives in aqueous phase has been developed, which is composed of a five-channel sample-sensor unit, a measurement and control unit, a microcontroller, and a communication unit. The characteristics of the detector as developed are mainly embedded in the sensor unit, and each sensor consists of a fluorescent sensing film, a light emitting diode (LED), a multi-pixel photon counter (MPPC), and an optical module with special bandpass optical filters. Due to the high sensitivity of the sensing film, the small size and low cost of LED and MPPC, the developed detector not only has a better detecting performance and small size, but also has a very low cost - it is an alternative to the device made with an expensive high power lamp and photomultiplier tube. The wavelengths of the five sensors covered extend from the upper UV through the visible spectrum, 370-640 nm, and thereby it possesses the potential to detect a variety of explosives and other hazardous materials in aqueous phase. An additional function of the detector is its ability to function via a wireless network, by which the data recorded by the detector can be sent to the host computer, and at the same time the instructions can be sent to the detector from the host computer. By means of the powerful computing ability of the host computer, and utilizing the classical principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm, effective classification of the analytes is achieved. Furthermore, the detector has been tested and evaluated using NB, PA, TNT and DNT as the analytes, and toluene, benzene, methanol and ethanol as interferent compounds (concentration various from 10 and 60 μM). It has been shown that the detector can detect the four nitroaromatics with high sensitivity and selectivity.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a new generation of porous materials constructed from light elements linked by strong covalent bonds. Herein we present rapid preparation of highly fluorescent nanoparticles of a new type of COF, i.e. melamine-based porous polymeric network SNW-1, by a microwave-assisted synthesis route. Although the synthesis of SNW-1 has to be carried out at 180°C for 3d under conventional reflux conditions, SNW-1 nanoparticles could be obtained in 6h by using such a microwave-assisted method. The results obtained have clearly demonstrated that microwave-assisted synthesis is a simple yet highly efficient approach to nanoscale COFs or other porous polymeric materials. Remarkably, the as-synthesized SNW-1 nanoparticles exhibit extremely high sensitivity and selectivity, as well as fast response to nitroaromatic explosives such as 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), 2,4,6-trinitrophenylmethylnitramine (Tetryl) and picric acid (PA) without interference by common organic solvents, which is due to the nanoscaled size and unique hierarchical porosity of such fluorescence-based sensing material.
