Food Chem 2024; 460:140779. [PMID: 39121778 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140779] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/04/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
Buprofezin (BUP) is an insect growth regulator widely used in agriculture to control hemipteran pests, particularly the melon aphid, Aphis gossypii, due to its efficiency and low toxicity. Although approved by the Chinese government, its maximum residue limit (MRL) in food is strictly regulated, and conventional techniques for detecting BUP have several limitations. Our study reports successful BUP detection using a supramolecular fluorescent probe DP@ALB, constructed with chalcone-based fluorescent dye DP and albumin as the host. The probe offers advantages such as low cost, visual signal output with high fluorescence color variation, rapid response, and high sensitivity. Additionally, portable test strips enable convenient on-site BUP detection and simplifying field monitoring of spiked real samples. The study achieves precise qualitative and quantitative BUP analysis in grape fruit, groundwater, and soil with satisfactory recoveries. Further, the biological applicability of sensor for the in vitro detection of BUP in L929 living cells was demonstrated. This research breakthrough overcomes the limitations of traditional analytical methods, offering an efficient and reliable approach for food and environmental monitoring and pesticide residue detection.

Abstract
The synthesis of signal-amplifying chemosensors induced by various triggers is a major challenge for multidisciplinary sciences. In this study, a signal-amplification system that was flexibly manipulated by a dynamic allosteric effector (trigger) was developed. Herein, the focus was on using the behavior of supramolecular polymerization to control the degree of polymerization by changing the concentration of a functional monomer. It was assumed that this control was facilitated by a gradually changing/dynamic allosteric effector. A curved-π buckybowl sumanene and a sumanene-based chemosensor (SC) were employed as the allosteric effector and the molecular binder, respectively. The hetero-supramolecular polymer, (SC·(sumanene)n), facilitated the manipulation of the degree of signal-amplification; this was accomplished by changing the sumanene monomer concentration, which resulted in up to a 62.5-fold amplification of a steroid. The current results and the concept proposed herein provide an alternate method to conventional chemosensors and signal-amplification systems.

Abstract
The ability to sense saccharides in aqueous media has attracted much attention in multidisciplinary sciences because the detection of ultrahigh concentrations of sugar chains associated with serious diseases could lead to further health promotion. However, there are notable challenges. In this study, a rhodamine-modified Curdlan (Rhod-Cur) chemosensor was synthesized that exhibited distinctive fluorescence "turn-on" responses. Rhod-Cur exhibited simultaneous sensitive and selective sensing of clinically useful acarbose with a good limit of detection (5 μM) from among those of the saccharides examined. The (chir)optical properties of Rhod-Cur were elucidated using UV/vis, fluorescence, excitation, and circular dichroism spectroscopies; lifetime measurements and morphological studies using atomic force and confocal laser scanning microscopy and dynamic light scattering techniques revealed that the fluorescence "turn-on" behavior originates from globule-to-coaggregation conversion upon insertion of the oligosaccharides in the dynamic Cur backbone.

Abstract
The determination of binding constants is a key matter in evaluating the strength of host-guest interactions. However, the profound impact of self-ion pairing on this parameter is often underrated in aqueous solution, leading in some cases to a misinterpretation of the true potential of supramolecular assemblies. In the present study, we aim to shed further light on this critical factor by exploring the concentration-dependent behavior of a multicharged pillararene in water. Our observations reveal an extraordinary 1-million-fold variability in the affinity of this macrocycle toward a given anion, showcasing the highly dynamic character of electrostatic interactions. We argue that these findings bring to the forefront the inherent determinism that underlies the estimation of affinity constants, a factor profoundly shaped by both the sensitivity of the instrumental technique in use and the intricacies of the experimental design itself. In terms of applications, these results may provide the opportunity to optimize the operational concentrations of multicharged hosts in different scenarios, aiming to achieve their maximum efficiency based on the intended application. Unlocking the potential of this hidden variability may pave the way for the creation of novel molecular materials with advanced functionalities.

Biosensing of DNA through difference in interaction between microparticle and glass plate based on particle dissociation in a coupled acoustic-gravitational field. Talanta 2024; 268:125369.

Abstract
A novel approach for detecting DNA without labeling the target DNA was developed based on the particle dissociation behavior in a combined acoustic-gravitational field. The particles, which are tethered on a glass plate via intermolecular interactions (Fbind), are dissociated by the resultant force of the acoustic radiation force (Fac), which is a function of the applied voltage (V), and the sedimentation force. In this system, V required for particle dissociation is dependent on Fbind. The differences in Fbind were exploited for detecting the target DNA. A glass plate and polystyrene (PS) particles were respectively modified with anchor and capture DNAs. The target DNA induces immobilization of the PS particles on the glass plate through sandwich hybridization, with a large accompanying Fbind. In the absence of the target DNA, the anchor DNA on the glass plate interacted weakly with the capture DNA on the PS particles via direct binding (small Fbind). The particle dissociation behavior varies based on the concentration of the target DNA due to changes in the ratio of the PS particles tethered through direct binding and sandwich hybridization. Target DNA with a length exceeding 12 base pairs (bps) can be detected on the picomolar scale at concentrations of 10-12 to 10-5 M. This detection scheme was applied to a specific sequence of HIV-2 with 20 bps, achieving a picomolar detection limit.

Abstract
Stimulus-responsive polymer materials are an attractive alternative to conventional supramolecular and polymer assemblies for applications in sensing, imaging, and drug-delivery systems. Herein, we synthesized a series of pyrene-labeled α- and ε-poly-l-lysine conjugates with varying degrees of substitution (DSs). Hydrostatic-pressure-UV/vis, fluorescence, and excitation spectroscopies and fluorescence lifetime measurements revealed ground-state conformers and excited-state ensembles emitting fluorescence with variable intensities. The polylysine-based chemosensors demonstrated diverse ratiometric responses to hydrostatic pressure through adjustments in polar solvents, DSs, and polymer backbones. Additionally, the fluorescence chemosensor exhibited a promising glum value of 3.2 × 10-3, indicating potential applications in chiral fluorescent materials. This study offers valuable insights into the development of smart hydrostatic-pressure-responsive polymer materials.

Abstract
The development of an effective and selective chemosensor for CN- ions has become the need of the hour due to their hazardous impact on the environment and humans. Herein, we report the synthesis of two novel chemosensors, IF-1 and IF-2 based on 3-hydroxy-2-naphthohydrazide and aldehyde derivatives that have shown selective sensing of CN- ions. IF-2 exhibited exclusive binding with CN- ions that is further confirmed by the binding constant value of 4.77 × 104 M-1 with a low detection limit (8.2 μM). The chemosensory potential is attributed to deprotonation of the labile Schiff base center by CN- ions that results in a color change from colorless to yellow as visible by the naked eye. Accompanying this, a DFT study was also performed in order to find the interaction between the sensor (IF-1) and its ions (F-). A notable charge transfer from 3-hydroxy-2-naphthamide to 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-methylphenol, was indicated by the FMO analysis. The QTAIM analysis revealed that in the complex compound, the strongest pure hydrogen-hydrogen bonding was observed between H53 and H58, indicated by a ρ value of +0.017807. Due to its selective response, IF-2 can be successfully used for making test strips for the detection of CN- ions.

Abstract
New o-hydroxyazocompound L bearing pyrrole residue was obtained in the simple synthetic protocol. The structure of L was confirmed and analyzed by X-ray diffraction. It was found that new chemosensor can be successfully used as copper(II) selective spectrophotometric regent in solution and can be also applied for the preparation of sensing materials generating selective color signal upon interaction with copper(II). Selective colorimetric response towards copper(II) is manifested by a distinct color change from yellow to pink. Proposed systems were effectively used for copper(II) determination at concentration level 10-8 M in model and real samples of water.

Abstract
Advances in molecular probes have recently intensified because they are valuable tools in studying species of interest for human health, the environment, and industry. Among these species, cyanide (CN-) and fluoride (F-) stand out as hazardous and toxic ions in trace amounts. Thus, there is a significant interest in probes design for their detection with diverse diazoles (pyrazole and imidazole) used for this purpose. These diazole derivatives are known as functional molecules because of their known synthetic versatility and applicability, as they exhibit essential photophysical properties with helpful recognition centers. This review provides an overview of the recent progress (2017-2021) in diazole-based sensors for CN- and F- detection, using the azolic ring as a signaling or recognition unit. The discussion focuses on the mechanism of the action described for recognizing the anion, the structure of the probes with the best synthetic simplicity, detection limits (LODs), application, and selectivity. In this context, the analysis involves probes for cyanide sensing first, then probes for fluoride sensing, and ultimately, dual probes that allow both species recognition.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH), as the most abundant low-molecular-weight biological thiol, plays significant roles in vivo. Abnormal GSH levels have been demonstrated to be related to the dysfunction of specific physiological activities and certain kinds of diseases. Therefore, the sensing of GSH is emerging as a critical issue. Cancer, with typical high morbidity and mortality, remains one of the most serious diseases to threaten public health. As it is clear that much more concentrated GSH is present at tumor sites than at normal sites, the in vivo sensing of GSH offers an option for the early diagnosis of cancer. Moreover, by monitoring the amounts of GSH in specific microenvironments, effective diagnosis of ROS levels, neurological diseases, or even stroke has been developed as well. In this review, we focus on the fluorescent methodologies for GSH detection, since they can be conveniently applied in living systems. First, the fluorescent sensing methods are introduced. Then, the principles for fluorescent sensing of GSH are discussed. In addition, the GSH-sensing-related biological applications are reviewed. Finally, the future opportunities in in the areas of fluorescent GSH sensing-in particular, fluorescent GSH-sensing-prompted disease diagnosis-are addressed.

Abstract
Photocatalytic degradation, as a very significant advanced oxidation technology in the field of environmental purification, has attracted extensive attention in recent years. The design and synthesis of catalysts with high-intensity photocatalytic properties have been the focus of many researchers in recent years. In this contribution, two new supramolecular materials {[(L1)·(Ag4I7)]CH3CN} (1), {[(L2)·(Ag4I7)]CH3CN} (2) were synthesized by solution volatilization reaction of two cationic templates 1,3,5-Tris(4-aminopyridinylmethyl)-2,4,6-Trimethylphenyl bromide (L1) and 1,3,5-Tris(4-methyl pyridinyl methyl)-2,4,6-trimethylphenyl bromide (L2) with metal salt AgI at room temperature, respectively. The degradation effect of 1 and 2 as catalyst on tetracycline (TC) under visible light irradiation was studied. The results showed that the degradation of TC by 1 was better than that by 2 and both of them had good stability and cyclability. The effects of pH value, catalyst dosage, and anion in water on the photocatalytic performance were also investigated. The adsorption kinetics fit the quasi-first-order model best. After 180 min of irradiation with 1, the degradation rate of TC can reach 97.91%. In addition, the trapping experiments showed that ·OH was the main active substance in the photocatalytic degradation of TC compared with ·O2− and h+. Because of its simple synthesis and high removal efficiency, catalyst 1 has potential value for the treatment of wastewater containing organic matter.

Abstract
ConspectusPressure (P), as one of the most inherent state quantities, has become an academic subject of study and has attracted attention for a long time for the minute control of reaction equilibria and rates, not only in the gas phase, based on the gas state equation, but also in the solution state. In the latter case, the pressure applied to the solutions is classified as hydrostatic pressure, which is a type of isotropic mechanical force. For instance, deep-sea organisms are exposed to hydrostatic pressure environments of up to 100 MPa, implying that hydrostatic pressurization plays a role in homeostatic functions at physiological levels. The pressure control of such complicated biological behavior can be addressed by thermodynamics or kinetics. In fact, the spontaneity (ΔG) of a reaction that is governed by weak interactions (approximately 10 kcal/mol), such as electrostatic, van der Waals, hydrophobic, hydrogen bonding, and π-π stacking, is determined by the exquisite balance of enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy changes (ΔS), in accordance with the fundamental thermodynamic equation ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. The mutually correlated ΔH-ΔS relationship is known as the enthalpy-entropy compensation law, in which a more negative enthalpic change (more exothermic) causes further entropic loss based on a more negative entropy change. Namely, changing the temperature (T) as the state quantity, except for P, is highly likely to be equal to controlling the entropy term. The solution-state entropy term is relatively vague, mainly based on solvation, and thus unpredictable, even using high-cost quantum mechanical calculations because of the vast number of solvation molecules. Hence, such entropy control is not always feasible and must be demonstrated on a trial-and-error basis. Furthermore, the above-mentioned equation can be rearranged as ΔG = ΔF + PΔV, enabling us to control solution-state reactions by simply changing P as hydrostatic pressure based on the volume change (ΔV). The volume term is strongly relevant to conformational changes, solvation changes, and molecular recognition upon complexation and thus is relatively predictable, that is, volumetrically compact or not, compared to the complicated entropy term. These extrathermodynamic and kinetic observations prompted us to use hydrostatic pressure as a controlling factor over a long period. Hydrostatic pressure chemistry in the solution phase has developed over the past six decades and then converged and passed the fields of mechanochemistry and mechanobiology, which are new but challenging and current hot topics in multidisciplinary science. In this Account, we fully summarize our achievements in solution-state hydrostatic pressure chemistry for smart/functional molecular, supramolecular, polymer, and biological systems. We hope that the phenomena, mechanistic outcomes, and methodologies that we introduced herein for hydrostatic-pressure-controlling dynamics can provide guidance for both theoretical and experimental chemists working in supramolecular and (bio)macromolecular chemistry, mechanoscience, materials science, and technology.

Abstract
Optical signals of pH probes mainly driven from the formation or rupture of covalent bonds, whereas the changes in covalent bonds usually require higher chemical driving forces, resulting in limited sensitivity and reversibility of the probes. The exploration of high-performance pH probes has been a subject of intense investigation. Herein, a new pH probe has been developed, with optical property investigation suggesting the probe has excellent signal-to-noise ratio, and fluorescence intensity shows exponential growth, combined with a visible color change, as pH increased from 5.1 to 6.0; Moreover, the probe has outstanding stability and reversibility, with more than 90% of the initial signal intensity remaining after 30 cycles. In order to better understand the special fluorescence behavior of the reported probe, the non-halogenated isomer is introduced for comparison, combined with the results of structural analysis, quantitative calculation and optical experiments, and the possible mechanism of the special supramolecular aggregation-caused quenching effect induced by the halogen atom is discussed.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective optical chemosensor (Arg-Rhoen) for determination of Au3+ was prepared by covalent immobilization of rhodamine ethylenediamine on agarose gel. Spectrophotometric studies of complex formation, chemical structures and purity of the hydrogel sensor were carried out using TGA, NMR, TEM, and IR. The complexation study results indicated that this probe can selectively detect Au3+ via a metal ion chelation-induced ring-opening reaction, and then caused a remarkable colour change from colourless to pink and a strong fluorescence enhancement. Theoretical DFT calculation results suggested that the hydrogel sensor Arg-Rhoen formed stable complexes with Au3+ through a large number of cation-dipole interactions. Reusability has been established by repeatedly dipping and rinsing the hydrogel in aqueous Au3+ and EDTA in basic solutions. We believe that this approach may provide an easily measurable and inherently sensitive method for Au3+ detection in environmental and biological applications.

Abstract
Optical chemical sensors are widely applied in many fields of modern analytical practice, due to their simplicity in preparation and signal acquisition, low costs, and fast response time. Moreover, the construction of most modern optical sensors requires neither wire connections with the detector nor sophisticated and energy-consuming hardware, enabling wireless sensor development for a fast, in-field and online analysis. In this review, the last five years of progress (from 2017 to 2021) in the field of optical chemical sensors development for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is provided. The operating mechanisms, the transduction principles and the types of sensing materials employed in single selective optical sensors and in multisensory systems are reviewed. The selected examples of optical sensors applications are reported to demonstrate the benefits and drawbacks of optical chemical sensor use for POPs assessment.

Abstract
The exciton, an excited electron-hole pair bound by Coulomb attraction, plays a key role in photophysics of organic molecules and drives practically important phenomena such as photoinduced mechanical motions of a molecule, photochemical conversions, energy transfer, generation of free charge carriers, etc. Its behavior in extended π-conjugated molecules and disordered organic films is very different and very rich compared with exciton behavior in inorganic semiconductor crystals. Due to the high degree of variability of organic systems themselves, the exciton not only exerts changes on molecules that carry it but undergoes its own changes during all phases of its lifetime, that is, birth, conversion and transport, and decay. The goal of this review is to give a systematic and comprehensive view on exciton behavior in π-conjugated molecules and molecular assemblies at all phases of exciton evolution with emphasis on rates typical for this dynamic picture and various consequences of the above dynamics. To uncover the rich variety of exciton behavior, details of exciton formation, exciton transport, exciton energy conversion, direct and reverse intersystem crossing, and radiative and nonradiative decay are considered in different systems, where these processes lead to or are influenced by static and dynamic disorder, charge distribution symmetry breaking, photoinduced reactions, electron and proton transfer, structural rearrangements, exciton coupling with vibrations and intermediate particles, and exciton dissociation and annihilation as well.

Abstract
One of the helical anthracenes, [4]HA, in which two fused anthracene ends are spatially arranged top and bottom, exhibits a ratiometric fluorescence response due to the hydrostatic pressure-dependent intramolecular [4+4] photocyclodimerization. This ratiometric signalling comes from the formation of an intramolecular stacked species and its subsequent photoreaction upon hydrostatic pressurization. The ratiometric indexes as a function of hydrostatic pressure may enable us to quantify an unknown pressure in solutions.

Abstract
A quinoline-naphthalene duo-based Schiff base probe (R) was synthesized and characterized by the usual spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray crystallographic techniques. Probe R detects Al3+ and HSO3- ions via the fluorescent turn-on approach by dual pathways i.e., i) when probe R interacts with Al3+, the restriction of CN single bond rotation, blocking of both photoinduced electron transfer (PET) and CN isomerization were observed, and ii) when the sensor R interacts with HSO3-, imine (CH = N) bond was cleaved via hydrolysis and produced the respective aldehyde and amine behaving as a chemodosimeter. The binding stoichiometric ratio of R + Al3+ (1:1) was confirmed by Job's plot, emission titration profile, NMR, and mass spectrometric analyses. This probe R is highly selective to both Al3+ -ions and HSO3- -ions, without any interference of other potentially competing cations and anions. Limit of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) of R with Al3+ and HSO3- were downed to nanomolar concentrations, which is much lower than the recommended level of drinking water/food fixed by the World Health Organization (WHO). Furthermore, probe R was utilized in the detection of Al3+ and HSO3- ions in highly contaminated real samples, bioimaging in E. coli cells, multiple-targeting molecular logic gate, and in bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding.

Abstract
Array-based optical sensing is an efficient technique for the determination and discrimination of small organic molecules. This study is aimed at the development of a simple and rapid strategy for obtaining an optical response from a wide range of low-molecular-weight organic compounds. We have suggested a colorimetric and fluorimetric sensing platform based on the combination of two response mechanisms using carbocyanine dyes: aggregation and oxidation. In the first one, the analyte forms ternary aggregates with an oppositely charged surfactant wherein the dye is solubilized in the hydrophobic domains of the surfactant accompanied with fluorescent enhancement. The second mechanism is based on the effect of the analyte on the catalytic reaction rate of dye oxidation with H2O2 in the presence of a metal ion (Cu2+, Pd2+), which entails fluorescence waning and color change. The reaction mixture in a 96-well plate is photographed in visible light (colorimetry) and the near-IR region under red light excitation (fluorimetry). In this proof-of-concept study, we demonstrated the feasibility of discrimination of nine medicinal compounds using principal component analysis: four cephalosporins (ceftriaxone, cefazolin, ceftazidime, cefotaxime), three phenothiazines (promethazine, promazine, chlorpromazine), and two penicillins (benzylpenicillin, ampicillin) in an aqueous solution and in the presence of turkey meat extract. The suggested platform allows simple and rapid recognition of analytes of various nature without using spectral equipment, except for a photo camera.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes, a long-term chronic metabolic disease, causes severe and increasing economic and health problems globally. There is growing evidence that β-glucans can function as bioactive macromolecules that help control type 2 diabetes with minimal side effects. However, conflicting conclusions about the antidiabetic activities of β-glucans have been published, potentially resulting from incomplete understanding of their precise structural characteristics. This review aims to increase clarity on the structure-function relationships of β-glucans in treating type 2 diabetes by examining detailed structural and conformational features of naturally derived β-glucans, as well as both chemical and instrumental methods used in their characterization, and their underlying anti-diabetic mechanisms. This may help to uncover additional structure and function relationships and to expand applications of β-glucans.

Abstract
CN- and Hg2+ ions are harmful to both the environment and human health, even at trace levels. Thus, alternative methods for their detection and quantification are highly desirable given that the traditional monitoring systems are expensive and require qualified personnel. Optical chemosensors (probes) have revolutionized the sensing of different species due to their high specificity and sensitivity, corresponding with their modular design. They have also been used in aqueous media and different pH ranges, facilitating their applications in various samples. The design of molecular probes is based on organic dyes, where the key species are N-heterocyclic compounds (NHCs) due to their proven photophysical properties, biocompatibility, and synthetic versatility, which favor diverse applications. Accordingly, this review aims to provide an overview of the reports from 2016 to 2021, in which fluorescent probes based on five- and six-membered N-heterocycles are used for the detection of CN- and Hg2+ ions.

Abstract
In this study, three new compounds 6-substituted-3-acetylcoumarin 4-(2'-isocamphanyl)thiosemicarbazones (3a, 3b, and 3c) were facilely synthesized and employed as colorimetric chemosensors for fluoride ions. The recognition behaviors of receptors 3a, 3b, and 3c toward F- were investigated by using UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. Among them, the receptor 3c displayed more superior sensitivity and rapid response time toward F- with a swift naked-eye color change from colorless to purple, and its detection limit was as low as 6.3 × 10-7 M, and the binding constant was calculated to be 2.58 × 104 M-1. Furthermore, the interaction mechanism between the receptor 3c and F- was studied by 1H NMR, HRMS, and density functional theory (DFT) studies, suggesting that initial formation of a hydrogen-bonded host-guest complex and the subsequent deprotonation of receptor 3c upon the addition of excess F-, which was responsible for the remarkable changes in the absorption spectra of 3c. Besides, a combinatorial logic circuit of IMPLICATION and INHIBITION gates at the molecular level was fabricated using the reversibility of receptor 3c toward F- and Mg2+. Finally, the test strips coated with receptor 3c revealed a good sensitivity for F- in an aqueous medium. Apart from that, the excellent performance of receptor 3c for detecting F- was reconfirmed by grinding them with KBr powder.

Abstract
Hydrostatically pressurized spectroscopic and lifetime decay analyses of optically active perylene bisimides were demonstrated in the pressure range of 0.1-320 MPa to show a π-stacked aggregation. The hydrostatic pressure-induced excitation and circular dichroism spectral changes of the fluorescence perylene dye enabled us to differentiate the slight pressure-sensitive aggregates. This work will lead to a new strategy for creating a pressure-responsive supramolecular polymerization material.

Abstract
Stimulus-responsive supramolecular architectures have become an attractive alternative to conventional ones for many applications in sensing, drug-delivery and switchable memory systems. Herein, we used an anion receptor (H: host) as a hydrostatic-pressure-manipulatable fluorescence foldamer and halide anions as chiral (binaphthylammonium) and achiral (tetrabutylammonium) ion pairs (SS or RR ·X and TBA·X; X = Cl, Br), and then investigated their (chir)optical properties and molecular recognition behavior under hydrostatic pressures. The conformational changes and optical properties of H in various organic solvents were revealed by UV/vis absorption and fluorescence spectra and fluorescence lifetimes upon hydrostatic pressurization. The anion-recognition abilities of H upon interactions with SS or RR·X and TBA·X at different pressure ranges were determined by hydrostatic-pressure spectroscopy to quantitatively afford the binding constant (K anion) and apparent reaction volume changes . The results obtained indicate that hydrostatic pressure as well as solvation plays significant roles in the dynamic control of the present supramolecular system in the ground and excited states. This work will provide a new guideline for further developing hydrostatic-pressure-responsive foldamers and supramolecular materials.

Abstract
Biogenic amines are involved in physiological roles in living organisms, but their excessive production or intake can induce undesired toxicological effects. As biogenic amines can be found in the process of food spoilage, they are considered an indicator of food quality and freshness, and their detection is of crucial importance in food safety. In this contribution, we report the fast and direct colorimetric and fluorometric sensing of biogenic amines by means of a dinuclear Zn(ii) Schiff-base complex. The selective and sensitive detection involves the formation of stable adducts between the dinuclear complex, acting as the Lewis acidic molecular tweezer, and biogenic di- or polyamines. The selectivity towards biogenic amines, even in the presence of common aliphatic, primary, secondary, or tertiary monoamines, heterocyclic amines, and amino acids, is demonstrated by competitive experiments. The quantitation of histamine in a fish matrix is easily achieved using a standard extraction procedure followed by simple colorimetric or fluorometric measurements.

Abstract
Hydrostatic pressure control has attracted much attention and presents a still challenging objective from mechanobiological viewpoints. Herein, we reveal the calcium entry processes in HeLa cells by means of hydrostatic pressure spectroscopy. The steady-state fluorescence spectral data comprehensively elucidated the factors controlling the outcomes of the hydrostatic pressure-stimulated calcium entry behavior. The present work leads to a new perspective on ion regulations in living cells and an attractive alternative to conventional mechanostimuli.

Abstract
Small-molecule based fluorescent probes are increasingly important for the detection and imaging of biological signaling molecules due to their simplicity, high selectivity and sensitivity, whilst being non-invasive, and suitable for real-time analysis of living systems. With this perspective we highlight sensing mechanisms including Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), photoinduced electron transfer (PeT), excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), aggregation induced emission (AIE) and multiple modality fluorescence approaches including dual/triple sensing mechanisms (DSM or TSM). Throughout the perspective we highlight the remaining challenges and suggest potential directions for development towards improved small-molecule fluorescent probes suitable for biosensing.

Abstract
A C2-symmetry dianthrimide based probe (D) and its hydroxide complex (D-OH) are reported as a chromo-fluorogenic sensor for rapid and sensitive detection of trace amounts of water in polar aprotic solvents. Based on intramolecular charge transfer in the excited state, the pink-coloured probe binds with the hydroxide ions to induce a colorimetric response of the resulting complex (D-OH), green in colour. The hydroxide based complex is used as a H2O or moisture sensor, tested in DMF and DCM, due to its high instability in moisture-containing organic solvents and paper materials/fabrics. The probe exhibits higher sensitivity towards pure H2O in DMSO with the LOD measured at 0.0067% v/v, perhaps even lower, in DMF (LOD = 0.100% v/v) and DCM (LOD = 0.013% v/v). The dissociation of OH- from D in the presence of H2O is responsible for the colorimetric and fluorometric responses. The litmus test paper strips prepared by adsorbing or coating them with the D-OH complex in DMSO could not be entirely achieved in an open system, due to the highly unstable state of the complex in the presence of water traces or the atmospheric moisture accumulated in the paper materials. The complex D-OH is also highly suspected to compete for adsorbed water in silica gel crystals in desiccators, due to its high affinity towards water molecules. The experimental studies were complemented by theoretical calculations using the Spartan'14 software package, and the computed data are in good agreement with the spectral data.

Abstract
The newly designed polythiophene chemosensors (PT1 and PT2) were synthesized via the Suzuki–Miyaura polymerization with appropriate yields. The photophysical properties of PTs thus obtained were examined by means of UV/vis, fluorescence, excitation spectroscopy, and time-correlated single-photon-counting method. The π–π* transitions around 400–600 nm and the emissions in the range of 400–650 nm were observed. The binding behavior of PTs was also investigated upon the interaction of tetrabutylammonium or tetrabutylphosphonium isophthalate, affording the binding constants (K) of 5790–8310 M−1, which were quite smaller than those observed in the corresponding repeating unit. The comprehensive analyses of the UV/vis data and theoretical calculation supports revealed the origins of scope and limitation toward signal-amplification sensing. The present results obtained herein will guide the development of new amplification chemosensors. The allosteric sensing of target guest molecules was drastically inhibited by introducing thiophene spacers in the polythiophene backbone, which is caused by the conformational relaxation.![]()

Abstract
A miniaturized 3D-printed device has been designed, manufactured and validated to perform as a low-cost sensor for compositional analysis of buffered and non-buffered solutions in industrial or remote areas. The proposed sensor takes advantage of the transport phenomenon and colorimetric measurements. The novel design can simultaneously detect the ionic strength of the solution by measuring the diffusion width of the ions and the pH by image analysis of the pH indicator color change. The results showed that it can detect pH variations of 0.25 and ionic measure difference of 0.1 M in non-buffer solutions. In addition, the design showed its adaptability to be used as a self-referencing sensor. The 3D-printed sensor presented here is not only successful in the evaluation of some important chemical characteristics but also brings flexibility, cost-effectiveness, swiftness and user-friendliness.

Abstract
The development of signal amplification systems has attracted much attention and presents a highly challenging objective. Herein, we reveal the amplification processes using a newly synthesized bisthiourea-binaphthyl-polythiophene conjugate. The spectral data, behavior of supramolecular complexation, and thermodynamic parameters with calculation support comprehensively elucidated the factors that control the outcomes of the signal amplification. The present work provides a new perspective on functional chemosensors and an attractive alternative to conventional amplification systems.
