Abstract
Herein, the detection of aspartic acid by doped Co3O4-ZnO nanorod materials was proposed using differential pulse voltammetry. The nano-composite metal oxide was synthesized by the wet precipitation method in basic media. Aspartic acid is a non-essential amino acid naturally synthesized in the body with lot of health significance, including as a biomarker for several health deficiencies. The synthesized composite Co3O4-ZnO nanorod was well-investigated by using FESEM, XRD, XPS, FTIR, UV/vis., EIS, and CV. The synthesized composite exhibited a low limit of detection (0.03 µM, high sensitivity (0.0014 µA µM-1 cm-2) and wide linear range (0.05-50 µM) for aspartic acid. The substrate, the Co3O4-ZnO nanorod, enhanced the electro-catalytic oxidation of aspartic acid as a result of its catalytic and conductivity properties. The developed sensor based on Co3O4-ZnO has a repeatable, reproducible and stable current response for aspartic acid. Additionally, other electroactive compounds did not interfere with the sensor's current response. The suitability of the developed sensor for real sample analysis was also established. Therefore, this study proposed the potential use of Co3O4-ZnO nanorod material in healthcare management for the maintenance of human well-being.

Abstract
In this article, we report for the first time the use of a dual-emission carbon dots (CDs) with orange-yellow fluorescence for the detection of l-glutamic acid (L-Glu). The CDs was synthesized through a facile strategy of one-pot hydrothermal route using o-phenylenediamine (oPD) and oxalic acid. The CDs exhibit two fluorescence emission peaks around 453 nm and 560 nm when the excitation wavelength is at 390 nm. In the existence of L-Glu the fluorescence at 560 nm was decreased, whereas the fluorescence at 453 nm was constant. The fluorescence intensity ratio at 560 nm and 453 nm (F560/F453) expressed two great linear relationships in the L-Glu concentration range from 0 to 200 μM and 200-400 μM, respectively, with a detection limit (LOD) of about 0.085 μM. In addition, it was used to analyze L-Glu in fetal bovine serum samples successfully, which recoveries were ranging from 97.07 to 103.7%. Those results demonstrate CDs can be further explored in biomedicine studies.

Abstract
Surfactant assemblies have drawn great attention in fabricating fluorescent sensors as they can provide advantages such as easy preparation, low cost, aqueous detection, high fluorescence stability, high sensitivity to external stimuli, etc. We have devoted the past few years to fluorescent cross-reactive sensors and arrays that are advantageous in differentiating similar analytes and analyzing mixed samples. In this Spotlight on Applications, we introduce our recent advances in developing surfactant assembly-based fluorescent sensors and arrays for discrimination applications. Besides using surfactant assemblies encapsulating fluorophores to fabricate multiple-element-based sensor arrays, we particularly proposed to take advantage of modulation effect of dynamic surfactant assemblies on the photophysical properties of encapsulated fluorophores to construct single-system-based discriminative sensors, which have been successfully applied in differentiation of multiple metal ions and various proteins. The applications of surfactant assembly-based sensors for the detection and discrimination of thiols, amino acids, and explosives are also introduced. Finally, the prospects of further efforts for improving surfactant ensemble sensors and their challenges are discussed.

Intrinsic dual-emissive carbon dots for efficient ratiometric detection of Cu 2+ and aspartic acid. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1144:26-33.

Abstract
Herein, novel intrinsic dual-emitting carbon dots (CDs) are prepared through a one-step hydrothermal treatment of glucose and 3-nitroaniline in sulfuric acid solution and utilized for ratiometric determination of Cu2+ and aspartic acid (Asp). The CDs exhibited an interesting pH-switchable emission behavior displaying an intrinsic dual-emitting peak with emission maxima at 400 and 610 nm at pH 4.0-5.0. The presence of Cu2+ intensively quenched the first emission peak at 400 nm, but it had a negligible effect on the second emission peak. The ratiometric signal displayed a high selectively for Cu2+ over other metal ions and provided a linear response over the concentration range of 0.01-1.00 μM with a detection limit of 7.0 nM. Moreover, at pH 4.0, Asp was able to restore the quenched fluorescence of the CDs-Cu2+ system with a much more successful performance than other amino acids. This on-off-on fluorescence behavior provided a selective ratiometric fluorescence method for the determination of Asp in the concentration range of 0.2-15 μM. The acceptable detection results for Cu2+ in a river water sample (compared to Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) method) and for Asp in human serum samples confirmed the potential application of this ratiometric nanoprobe for sensing in real samples.

Abstract
Imidazolium based receptors selectively recognize anions, and have received more and more attention. In 2006 and 2010, we reviewed the mechanism and progress of imidazolium salt recognition of anions, respectively. In the past ten years, new developments have emerged in this area, including some new imidazolium motifs and the identification of a wider variety of biological anions. In this review, we discuss the progress of imidazolium receptors for the recognition of anions in the period of 2010-2019 and highlight the trends in this area. We first classify receptors based on motifs, including some newly emerging receptors, as well as new advances in existing receptor types at this stage. Then we discuss separately according to the types of anions, including ATP, GTP, DNA and RNA.

Abstract
A fluorescent pH probe based on diphenylalanine-modified dansyl (FF-Dns) was designed and synthesized. The probe showed sensitive fluorescence emission to pH change over a wide range of 1-13 in aqueous solution. At pH 4-10, FF-Dns displayed the characteristic fluorescent emission of dansyl group (yellow); while protonation of the dimethylamino group caused a very weak fluorescence emission at pH 1-4, and deprotonation of the sulfonamide group caused an emission blue-shift to the green region at pH 11-13. These properties endow FF-Dns with the potential to detect pH variation in physiological environments.

Abstract
The heterogeneous structure and dynamic balancing nature of surfactant aggregates make them attractive in developing fluorescent sensors. They can provide a number of advantages, e.g., enhanced fluorescence stability and quantum yield, detection capability in aqueous solutions, and easy operation. Thus, various strategies have been used to construct surfactant aggregate-based fluorescent sensors. Surfactant aggregates play various roles in different strategies and realize multiple sensing behaviors. Many new functions have been discovered for surfactant aggregates in constructing fluorescent sensors. In this feature article, we briefly summarize the development of surfactant aggregate-based fluorescent sensors and their applications in three different types of sensing: selective sensing, multiple analyte sensing, and cross-reactive sensing. For each type of sensing, the design strategies and the roles of surfactant aggregates are particularly introduced. An understanding of these aspects will help to expand the applications of surfactant assemblies in the sensing field.

Abstract
We developed a facile and feasible fluorescent nanoswitch assay for reversible recognition of glutamate (Glu) and Al3+ in human serum and living cell. The proposed nanoswitch assay is based on our recently developed method for controlled synthesis of fluorescent polydopamine dots (PDADs) at room temperature with dopamine as the sole precursor. The fluorescence of nanoswitch assay could be quickly and efficiently quenched by Glu (turn-Off), and the addition of Al3+ could recover the fluorescence of the PDADs-Glu system (turn-On). Meanwhile, the reversible recognition of Glu and Al3+ in this nanoswitch system was stable after three cycles. Additionally, the system displayed excellent performance for Glu and Al3+ determination with a low detection limit of 0.12 and 0.2 μM, respectively. Moreover, PDADs are successfully applied to determine Glu and monitor Al3+ in human serum. Noteworthy, the nanoswitch assay is transported into HepG2 cells and realized "Off" detection of Glu and "On" sensing Al3+ in the living cells. Therefore, this PDADs-based nanoswitch assay provides a strategy to develop reversible recognition biosensors for intracellular and external molecular analysis.
