Abstract
Recently, the utilization of metal halide perovskites in sensing and their application in environmental studies have reached a new height. Among the different metal halide perovskites, cesium lead halide perovskites (CsPbX3; X = Cl, Br, and I) and composites have attracted great interest in sensing applications owing to their exceptional optoelectronic properties. Most CsPbX3 nanostructures and composites possess great structural stability, luminescence, and electrical properties for developing distinct optical and photonic devices. When exposed to light, heat, and water, CsPbX3 and composites can display stable sensing utilities. Many CsPbX3 and composites have been reported as probes in the detection of diverse analytes, such as metal ions, anions, important chemical species, humidity, temperature, radiation photodetection, and so forth. So far, the sensing studies of metal halide perovskites covering all metallic and organic-inorganic perovskites have already been reviewed in many studies. Nevertheless, a detailed review of the sensing utilities of CsPbX3 and composites could be helpful for researchers who are looking for innovative designs using these nanomaterials. Herein, we deliver a thorough review of the sensing utilities of CsPbX3 and composites, in the quantitation of metal ions, anions, chemicals, explosives, bioanalytes, pesticides, fungicides, cellular imaging, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), toxic gases, humidity, temperature, radiation, and photodetection. Furthermore, this review also covers the synthetic pathways, design requirements, advantages, limitations, and future directions for this material.

Abstract
Recent advances in detection and diagnostic tools have improved understanding and identification of plant physiological and biochemical processes. Effective and safe Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) can find objects quickly and accurately. Raman enhancement amplifies the signal by 1014-1015 to accurately quantify plant metabolites at the molecular level. This paper shows how to use functionalized perovskite substrates for SERS. These perovskite substrates have lots of surface area, intense Raman scattering, and high sensitivity and specificity. These properties eliminate sample matrix component interference. This study identified research gaps on perovskite substrates' effectiveness, precision, and efficiency in biological metabolite detection compared to conventional substrates. This article details the synthesis and use of functionalized perovskites for plant metabolites measurement. It analyzes their pros and cons in this context. The manuscript analyzes perovskite-based SERS substrates, including single-crystalline perovskites with enhanced optoelectronic properties. This manuscript aims to identify this study gap by comprehensively reviewing the literature and using it to investigate plant metabolite detection in future studies.

Abstract
Halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are a new kind of luminescent material for fluorescent probes. Compared with traditional nanosized luminescent materials, PNCs have better optical properties, such as high fluorescence quantum yield, tunable band gap, low size dependence, narrow emission bandwidth, and so on. Therefore, they have broad application prospects as fluorescent probes in the detection of agriculture- and food-related hazardous substances. In this paper, the structure and basic properties of PNCs are briefly described. The water stabilization methods, such as polymer surface coating, ion doping, surface passivation, etc.; are summarized. The recent advances of PNCs such as fluorescent probes for detecting hazardous substances in the field of agricultural and food are reviewed, and the detection effect and mechanism are discussed and analyzed. Finally, the problems and solutions faced by PNCs as fluorescent probes in agriculture and food were summarized and prospected. It is expected to provide a reference for further application of PNCs as fluorescent probes in agriculture and food.

Abstract
Despite the excellent optoelectronic properties exhibited by CsPbBr3 QDs (PQDs) for sensing applications, their poor resistance to water does not allow their utilization as probes to detect analytes in aqueous media. The present work provides water soluble PQDs (dispersed in water) prepared by an appropriate phase engineering of the ligand. The dicarboxylate functional ligands at a particular pH allow the protonated state to form solvated carboxyl dimers, which interconnects PQDs, thus avoiding Ostwald ripening and enhancing the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). As a proof of concept, this probe was applied to detect bioamines in water, namely histamine, hexamethylenediamine, phenethylamine, dopamine and thiamine. The probe is highly selective to histamine at concentrations below 500 nM and this selectivity of histamine over dopamine is very interesting and rarely reported. More importantly, this work offers a standard protocol for transferring PQDs from the organic to aqueous phase, for the detection of such biomolecules in water.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 22:s22186987. [PMID: 36146333 PMCID: PMC9503699 DOI: 10.3390/s22186987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Revised: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 05/14/2023]
Abstract
Developing a fluorescent probe for UO22+, which is resistant to interference from other ions such as Cu2+ and can be applied in acidic and high-water systems, has been a major challenge. In this study, a "turn-off" fluorescent probe for triamine-modified flavonoid derivatives, 2-triphenylamine-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (abbreviated to HTPAF), was synthesized. In the solvent system of dimethyl sulfoxide:H2O (abbreviated to DMSO:H2O) (v/v = 5:95 pH = 4.5), the HTPAF solution was excited with 364 nm light and showed a strong fluorescence emission peak at 474 nm with a Stokes shift of 110 nm. After the addition of UO22+, the fluorescence at 474 nm was quenched. More importantly, there was no interference in the presence of metal ions (Pb2+, Cd2+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Co2+, Th4+, La3+, etc.), especially Cu2+ and Al3+. It is worth noting that the theoretical model for the binding of UO22+ to HTPAF was derived by more detailed density functional theory (DFT) calculations in this study, while the coordination mode was further verified using HRMS, FT-IR and 1HNMR, demonstrating a coordination ratio of 1:2. In addition, the corresponding photo-induced electron transfer (PET) fluorescence quenching mechanism was also proposed.

Abstract
Perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are endowed with extraordinary photophysical properties such as wide absorption spectra, high quantum yield, and narrow emission bands. However, the inherent shortcomings, especially the instability in polar solvents and water incompatibility, have hindered their application as probes in chem/bio sensing. In this review, we give a fundamental understanding of the challenges when using PNCs for chem/bio sensing and summarize recent progress in this area, including the application of PNCs in various sensors and the corresponding strategies to maintain their structural integrity. Finally, we provide perspectives to promote the future development of PNCs for chem/bio sensing applications.

Abstract
Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) offer high photoluminescence quantum yields; however, due to their limited stability in aqueous media, to date their utilization in biomedical applications has been limited. The present work demonstrates highly fluorescent and stable aqueous PQDs that were synthesized using a facile engineered phase transfer method. Ligands were engineered to have a dual functionality, i.e., they could simultaneously mediate the strong binding of PQDs and the interactions with water molecules. The resultant water-soluble PQDs demonstrated robust structural and optical properties. The extracted aqueous PQDs remained stable in pellet form for 8 months, which was the entire test duration. Notably, 100% of their fluorescence was also retained. As a proof-of-concept experiment, the water-soluble PQDs were successfully tagged to polyclonal antibodies and used to image Escherichia coli cells in aqueous media. No structural or optical disturbance in PQDs was detected throughout the process. This work marks the beginning of the use of nonpolymeric aqueous PQDs and shows their strong potential to be used in biological applications.

Abstract
Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) exhibit exceptional fluorescence property and are potential candidates for fluorescent metal-ion sensors. The present work shows the presence of inner filter effect (IFE) in perovskite sensing systems and its significance in enhancing the detection limits. Two different sensing systems (with a different extent of IFE), one with simple long-chain monodentate ligand-capped PQDs and the other with short-chain bidentate ligand capped PQDs, were developed toward sensing Co2+. The fluorescence quenching mechanism is elucidated and is observed to be a combination of Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and IFE. The electrostatic interaction of donor (D) with acceptor (A) and its distance for energy transfer was appropriate and was well within the requirement for a good energy transfer from PQDs (donor) to Co2+ ions (acceptor) facilitating partial FRET. Also, the spectral overlap of absorption of excited and emitted radiation (of PQDs) with that of Co2+ allows a significant amount of IFE. PQDs were successfully modified for lesser spectral overlap with reduced IFE. The reduction in IFE adversely drops the detection levels from 0.733 × 10-7 to 0.7970 × 10-6 on modification. This work provides insights into the design and development of high sensing perovskite probes with manipulation of IFE and also shows the importance of IFE to be considered during the study of such sensing systems, which has been neglected so far in perovskite systems.

Abstract
Recently, perovskite-based nanomaterials are utilized in diverse sustainable applications. Their unique structural characteristics allow researchers to explore functionalities towards diverse directions, such as solar cells, light emitting devices, transistors, sensors, etc. Many perovskite nanomaterial-based devices have been demonstrated with extraordinary sensing performance to various chemical and biological species in both solid and solution states. In particular, perovskite nanomaterials are capable of detecting small molecules such as O2, NO2, CO2, etc. This review elaborates the sensing applications of those perovskite materials with diverse cations, dopants and composites. Moreover, the underlying mechanisms and electron transport properties, which are important for understanding those sensor performances, will be discussed. Their synthetic tactics, structural information, modifications and real time sensing applications are provided to promote such perovskite nanomaterials-based molecular designs. Lastly, we summarize the perspectives and provide feasible guidelines for future developing of novel perovskite nanostructure-based chemo- and biosensors with real time demonstration.
