Abstract
Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are small reactive molecules derived from elements in the air─oxygen and nitrogen. They are produced in biological systems to mediate fundamental aspects of cellular signaling but must be very tightly balanced to prevent indiscriminate damage to biological molecules. Small molecule probes can transmute the specific nature of each reactive oxygen and nitrogen species into an observable luminescent signal (or even an acoustic wave) to offer sensitive and selective imaging in living cells and whole animals. This review focuses specifically on small molecule probes for superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, nitric oxide, and peroxynitrite that provide a luminescent or photoacoustic signal. Important background information on general photophysical phenomena, common probe designs, mechanisms, and imaging modalities will be provided, and then, probes for each analyte will be thoroughly evaluated. A discussion of the successes of the field will be presented, followed by recommendations for improvement and a future outlook of emerging trends. Our objectives are to provide an informative, useful, and thorough field guide to small molecule probes for reactive oxygen and nitrogen species as well as important context to compare the ecosystem of chemistries and molecular scaffolds that has manifested within the field.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 302:123035.

Abstract
Rapid and visual evaluation the internal corruption of meat tissue is closely related to public health. The pH change caused by glycolysis and amino acid decomposition is an important indicator of meat freshness. Herein, we designed a pH-responsive NIR fluorescent probe (Probe-OH) based on protonation/deprotonation for monitoring the internal corruption of meat tissue. Probe-OH was synthesized by a stable hemicyanine skeleton with phenolic hydroxyl group, which exhibited excellent performances such as high selectivity, high sensitivity, fast response time (60 s), a broad pH-responsive range of 4.0-10.0, and superior spatio-temporal sampling ability. In addition, we conducted a paper chip platform to measure pH value in different meat samples (pork and chicken), which is convenient to evaluate pH value of meat by observing the color changes of paper strips. Furthermore, in combination with the NIR advantages of fluorescence imaging, Probe-OH was successfully applied to assess the freshness of pork and chicken breasts, and the structural changes of muscle tissue can be clearly observed under confocal microscope. The results of Z-axis scanning showed that Probe-OH could penetrate into the interior to monitor the internal corruption of meat tissue, the fluorescence intensity changes with scanning height in the meat tissue section, and reaches its maximum at 50 μm. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of fluorescence probe being used to image the inside of meat tissue section so far. It is expected that we can provide a new rapid, sensitive, near-infrared fluorescence method for assessment of the freshness in the internal organization of meat.

Abstract
Introduction: Fluorescent visualization of hydrogen peroxide in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is conducive to predicting malignant prognosis after chemotherapy. Two photon microscopy has been employed for in vivo hydrogen peroxide detection owing to its advantages of deep penetration and low phototoxicity. Methods: In this study, a two-photon fluorescent probe (TPFP) was protected by mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and masked by cloaking the cancer cell membranes (CM), forming a tumor-targeted bioactive nanoprobe, termed MSN@TPFP@CM. Results: This multifunctional nanoprobe allowed for the effective and selective detection of excessive hydrogen peroxide production in chemotherapeutic Etoposide (VP-16)-challenged tumor cells using two-photon microscopy. After specific accumulation in tumors, VP-16-MSN@TPFP@CM monitored tumor-specific hydrogen peroxide levels and revealed a positive correlation between oxidative stress in the TME and chemotherapy-exacerbated malignant prognosis. Discussion: Given the recent translation of fluorescent imaging into early clinical trials and the high biocompatibility of bioactive nanoprobes, our approach may pave the way for specific imaging of oxidative stress in solid tumors after treatment and provide a promising technology for malignant prognosis predictions.

Abstract
Abnormal intracellular peroxynitrite (ONOO-) concentration is related to oxidative damage, which is correlated with many pathological consequences, such as local inflammation and other diseases. In this work, a series of resorufin benzyl ether-based fluorescent probes were designed using boronate as a recognizing moiety installed on a phenyl moiety for ONOO- detection via a self-immolation mechanism. The location of the boronate as well as the substitution patterns on the phenyl moiety were investigated and the responding behaviors of the designed probes to ONOO-, other reactive oxygen species, and biothiols were examined. It was found that all the immolative probes were inevitably dominated by ONOO-. Compared with other probes, p-Borate possessed favorable selectivity and high sensitivity to ONOO-. Moreover, p-Borate was successfully used to detect ONOO- in cells and inflamed mice.

Abstract
In recent years, fluorescent probes, as an analytical tool that can target and rapidly detect analytes, have been increasingly used for applications related to medical treatment, detection, and bioimaging. Researchers are interested in hemicyanine-based fluorescent probes because of their high quantum yield, tunable spectrum characteristics, absorption and emission in the near-infrared (NIR) region, and good photo-stability. The development of these dyes and their derivatives as NIR fluorescent probes for biological applications has advanced significantly in the last ten years. This review introduces processes for making hemicyanine dyes and the methodology for creating functional activity-based fluorescent probes. A variety of hemicyanine-based probes have been systematically developed for the detection of small biomolecules in various illnesses. Finally, the potential drawbacks of hemicyanine-based functional probes, and the prospects for future research and translation into clinical medicine, are also discussed. This study is intended to provide strategies for the development and design of novel fluorescence probes.

Abstract
A new type of dye with advantages of high selectivity and sensitivity is formed by using the strategy of hybridization between the luminescent unit and recognition unit. Based on this strategy, we exploit a novel dye bonding the benzopyrylium salt as a luminescent unit and phenylboronate group as a response site, which is served as a fluorescent probe 1 for specific recognition of hydrogen peroxide in biological application. Probe 1 employs a unique recognition switch, phenylboronate unit, to"turn-on"a highly specific and rapid fluorescence response toward hydrogen peroxide combined with the 1,6-rearrangement elimination reaction strategy. Meanwhile, probe 1 has the ability to glucose assay by taking advantage of glucose oxidase/glucose enzymatic reaction. What's more, the probe 1 is capable of tracking endogenous hydrogen peroxide in living cells and intracellular imaging. Therefore, the newly developed bioprobe 1 is expected to be used to monitor hydrogen peroxide and glucose levels in complex organisms.

Abstract
There has been rapid progress in the development of fast, sensitive, cheap and low-cytotoxicity micro-molecule fluorescent probes for application in various fields, including disease diagnosis, food safety and environmental safety. As an analytical tool, dual-function fluorescent probes with dual-emission responses have attracted considerable attention due to their cost-effectiveness and efficiency over single-function sensors. This review primarily describes research progress on multifunctional probes in terms of the reaction type and coordination type, as well as the general design principles of probes. The analytes include reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive sulfur species (RSS), harmful cations and anions, etc. Multifunctional probes for food, medical and environmental applications are listed for future research. To improve the development of rapid detection methods, trends and strategies in the development of multifunctional fluorescent probes are also discussed.
