Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (CrVI) poses a serious risk to both human and environment health. Hence, a simple, robust, and efficient analytical method must be developed to monitor the presence of Cr(VI) in the environment. The current investigation concentrated on the colorimetric detection of Cr(VI) using TMB as indicator in the presence of H2O2. The study found that Cr(VI) reacts with H2O2 to generate hydroxyl radicals which oxidize TMB in a concentration dependent manner. Under optimized conditions, the method obtained a good linearity range (0.025-0.5 mg/L, r2 = 0.9944) with LOD and LOQ of 0.009 mg/L and 0.029 mg/L, respectively. The technique was further improved by the addition of EDTA in the sample preparation protocol to reduce the false positive result by the presence of ions like Cu2+, Fe3+, etc. The study recorded improved Cr(VI) recoveries (81.73-111.40 %) at different fortification levels (0.1-0.5 mg/L). Under optimized conditions, the EDTA added method obtained a good linear response (r2 = 0.9952) with a detection limit of 0.023 mg/L which is less than the prescribed limits by WHO (0.05 mg/L) and US EPA (0.1 mg/L) for drinking water. The developed analytical method is very simple without use of any nanomaterial and the results with natural water samples show that it has the potential for real-time detection of Cr(VI) in the environment.

Abstract
The development of stable fluorescent sensors for toxic pollutants and drugs is meaningful to the environment and public health. In this work, nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) were facially synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal method using soluble starch and l-arginine as carbon and nitrogen sources in pure water at 190 °C for 4 h. The as-synthesized N-GQDs were well characterized and displayed blue fluorescence emission at 445 nm with excellent pH stability, salt tolerance, thermostability, photobleaching resistance and reproducibility. Moreover, N-GQDs could serve as an "on-off" sensor for selective detection of Cr(vi) and folic acid with low detection limit (0.80 and 2.1 μM), good linear correlation over wide linear range (0-50 μM and 0-200 μM) as well as short response time (<10 s). The practical applications of N-GQDs for Cr(vi) and folic acid detection in actual samples were further investigated and showed acceptable recoveries (92-105%) with relative standard deviations less than 5%. These results indicated that this N-GQDs-based sensor could be a potential alternative for Cr(vi) and folic acid detection in the fields of environmental monitoring and drug analysis.

Abstract
A biphenyl based coumarin fluorescent molecule, N,N'-bis(7-diethylamino-2-oxo-2 H-chromen-3-yl)methylene)biphenyl-2-2'-dicarbohydrazide (molecule 1) has been synthesized and characterised. Photophysical studies of 1 exhibit solvent polarity dependent absorption and emission maxima. Citrate capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been mixed with molecule 1 for the preparation of AuNPs/1 conjugate. The association constant of the AuNPs/1 conjugate has been calculated to 4.54 × 104 M- 1. The AuNPs/1 conjugate has been found to detect Hg2+ ion selectively by fluorescence enhancement. While addition of molecule 1 into the solution of AuNPs, fluorescence intensity of 1 quenched. On addition of several monovalent, divalent and trivalent metal ion into the solution of AuNPs/1 conjugate separately, there was no change in fluorescence intensity of 1 has been observed. However, upon addition of Hg2+ ion into the solution of AuNPs/1 conjugate, the fluorescence intensity enhancement occurred, indicating released of 1 from the surface of AuNPs and probably aggregation of AuNPs took place in presence of Hg2+ ion. The AuNPs/1 conjugate has been found to have a detection limit of 2.3 × 10- 9 M for Hg2+ ion in aqueous solvent. Meanwhile, the AuNPs/1 conjugate have also been successfully applied for the determination of Hg2+ in real water samples.

Abstract
This work involves fluorescent probe which is composed of carbon dots (CD) and cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS QD) for the sensitive and selective fluorescence detection of chromium(vi) ions. The blue fluorescent carbon dots were synthesized by hydrothermal method from natural precursor apricot. The carbon dots-cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CD-CdS QD) nanocomposite was synthesized and all as-synthesized products were characterized using different characterization techniques. It showed white fluorescence under UV light which was quenched selectively in the presence of chromium(vi) ions due to the inner filter effect (IFE). The linear decrease in the white fluorescence was observed in the concentration range 2-120 μM of chromium(vi) ions with the limit of detection 2.07 μM. This is novel probe for the sensitive, selective and rapid detection of chromium(vi) ions.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is highly carcinogenic and mutagenic, which is seriously harmful to human health. Hence, it is important to create a probe that can detect Cr(VI) effectively. In this work, gold nanotetrapods (Au NTPs) were applied in colorimetric detection for the first time. Based on the oxidative etching principle of Cr(VI) on Au NTPs, a sensitive and multicolor response detection method for Cr(VI) was established. The oxidative etching of Au NTPs by Cr(VI) resulted in the blue shift of plasmon resonance absorption peak of Au NTPs with the change of morphology. As the etching progress processed, Au NTPs solution exhibited obvious color changes from gray-green to blue-violet and then to pink. This multicolor response design is very convenient for naked-eye detection. The limit of detection (LOD) of Cr(VI) is 3 nM for the naked eyes and 0.5 nM for UV-vis spectrum, both of which are lower than the toxicity level of Cr(VI) (0.2 μM) set by United States Environmental Protection Agency. This sensing method exhibits good linearity between the wavelength shift and Cr(VI) concentration in the range of 0.5 nM to 8 nM. The detection results of Cr(VI) in actual environmental samples demonstrate that the Au NTPs colorimetric probe (Au-N-Probe) is expected to be applied to the detection of Cr(VI) in water environmental samples such as lake water and industrial wastewater.

Abstract
Green-emissive carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with exclusive chemosensing aspects were synthesized from orange pomace as a biomass-based precursor via a facile microwave method without using any chemicals. The synthesis of highly fluorescent CQDs with inherent nitrogen was confirmed through X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron, Fourier transform infrared, Raman, and transmission electron microscopic techniques. The average size of the synthesized CQDs was found to be 7.5 nm. These fabricated CQDs displayed excellent photostability, water solubility, and outstanding fluorescent quantum yield, i.e., 54.26%. The synthesized CQDs showed promising results for the detection of Cr6+ ions and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The sensitivity of CQDs toward Cr6+ and 4-NP was found up to the nanomolar range with the limit of detection values of 59.6 and 14 nM, respectively. Several analytical performances were thoroughly studied for high precision of dual analytes of the proposed nanosensor. Various photophysical parameters of CQDs (quenching efficiency, binding constant, etc.) were analyzed in the presence of dual analytes to gain more insights into the sensing mechanism. The synthesized CQDs exhibited fluorescence quenching toward incrementing the quencher concentration, which was rationalized by the inner filter effect through time-correlated single-photon counting measurements. The CQDs fabricated in the current work exhibited a lower detection limit and a wide linear range through the simple, eco-friendly, and rapid detection of Cr6+ and 4-NP ions. To evaluate the feasibility of the detection approach, real sample analysis was conducted, demonstrating satisfactory recovery rates and relative standard deviations toward the developed probes. This research paves the way for developing CQDs with superior characteristics utilizing orange pomace (biowaste precursor).

Abstract
The presence of heavy metal ions, particularly Cr (VI) in water, is a serious environmental concern. There is a need to develop low-cost and efficient methods for sensing and removing Cr (IV) ions selectively. In this paper, floral waste (FW) extract is used for the synthesis of Ag NPs for sensing Cr (VI) ions in an aqueous solution. Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were characterized using spectroscopic (UV-visible and FTIR), X-ray diffraction, TEM, and SEM techniques. UV-visible spectroscopic studies revealed that in the presence of Cr (VI) ions, there is an abrupt change in the λmax value of Ag NPs in aqueous solution, indicating that the synthesized Ag-NP is an excellent sensor for the spectroscopical detection of Cr (VI) ions with a low detection limit of 0.5 ppm. The method is fast, economical, simple, and efficient.

Abstract
Acetaldehyde acts as an important mediator in the metabolism of plants and animals; however, its abnormal level can cause problems in biological processes. Although acetaldehyde is found naturally in many organisms, exposure to high concentrations can have effects on the eyes, respiratory system, etc. Due to the importance of detecting acetaldehyde in environmental samples and biofluids, determination of its concentration is highly demanded. There are some reports showing exposure to high concentrations of acetaldehyde for a long time can increase the risk of cancer by reacting with DNA. In this work, we presented a novel colorimetric method for rapid and sensitive detection of acetaldehyde with high reproducibility using different AgNPs with various morphologies. The redox reaction between AgNPs, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) solution, and analytes endows a color change in 15 minutes that is detectable by the naked eye. UV spectrophotometry was further used for quantitative analysis. An iron mold with a hexagonal pattern and liquid paraffin were also used to prepare the paper-based microfluidic substrate, as a low cost, accessible, and rapid detection tool. Different types of AgNPs showed different lower limits of quantification (LLOQ). The AgNPs-Cit and AgNPrs could identify acetaldehyde with linear range of 10-7 to 10 M and an LLOQ of 10-7 M. The AgNWs showed the best color change activity with a linear range 10-5 to 10 M and the lowest diagnostic limit is 10-5 M. Finally, analysis of human biofluids as real samples were successfully performed using this system.

Abstract
Environmental pollution caused by heavy metal ions has become a major health problem across the world. In this study, a selective colorimetric sensor based on starch functionalized silver nanoparticles (St-Ag NPs) for rapid detection of Hg2+ in real samples was developed. The environmentally friendly green approach was utilized to synthesize starch functionalized silver nanoparticles (St-AgNPs). A multi-technique approach involving UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used for the characterization of St-Ag NPs. These starch functionalized AgNPs were tested for the detection of heavy metals at 25 °C. The screening process revealed clear changes in the AgNPs color and absorption intensity only in the presence of Hg2+ due to the redox reaction between Ag0 and Hg2+. The color and absorption intensity of nanoparticles remain unchanged in the presence of all the other tested metals ion. The proposed method has strong selectivity and sensitivity to Hg2+ ions, with a detection limit of 1 ppm revealed by UV-visible spectrophotometry. The proposed procedure was found to be successful for the detection of Hg2+ in real samples of tap water.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution has become a severe threat to human health and the environment for many years. Their extensive release can severely damage the environment and promote the generation of many harmful diseases of public health concerns. These toxic heavy metals can cause many health problems such as brain damage, kidney failure, immune system disorder, muscle weakness, paralysis of the limbs, cardio complaint, nervous system. For many years, researchers focus on developing specific reliable analytical methods for the determination of heavy metal ions and preventing their acute toxicity to a significant extent. The modern researchers intended to utilize efficient and discerning materials, e.g. nanomaterials, especially the metal nanoparticles to detect heavy metal ions from different real sources rapidly. The metal nanoparticles have been broadly utilized as a sensing material for the colorimetric detection of toxic metal ions. The metal nanoparticles such as Gold (Au), Silver (Ag), and Copper (Cu) exhibited localized plasmon surface resonance (LPSR) properties which adds an outstanding contribution to the colorimetric sensing field. Though, the stability of metal nanoparticles was major issue to be exploited colorimetric sensing of heavy emtal ions, but from last decade different capping and stabilizing agents such as amino acids, vitmains, acids and ploymers were used to functionalize the metal surface of metal nanoparticles. These capping agents prevent the agglomeration of nanoparticles and make them more active for prolong period of time. This review covers a comprehensive work carried out for colorimetric detection of heavy metals based on metal nanoparticles from the year 2014 to onwards.

Abstract
A signal shut-off probe of Si, N-codoped carbon quantum dots (Si, N-CQDs) was exploited to detect Cr(VI) by fluorescence quenching without the aid of any biomolecules or labeling materials. The sensing system prepared the precursor of diacetone acrylamide and the silane coupling agent 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH-550) by a simple hydrothermal method, and the quantum yield is as high as 75% Si, N-CQDs. The fluorescence stability and microstructure of the Si, N-CQDs were studied. The Si, N-CQDs has a high sensitivity for detecting Cr(VI) with the linear range of 0–200 μM and the detection limit of 0.995 μM. The quenching mechanism of Si, N-CQDs is attributed to FRET.

Abstract
Rosmarinic acid-capped silver nanoparticles (Ro-AgNPs) were prepared and applied as a probe for selective colorimetric detection of cyanide (CN-) and chromium(VI) [Cr(VI)] under different conditions in aqueous media. The carbon atom of CN- interacts with the AgNPs, and the carbon atom donates electrons from the HOMO to the vacant orbitals of the coordinatively unsaturated surface atom (Ag0). After donating electrons, CN- attached onto the surface of the nanoparticles becomes very reactive and interacts with dissolved oxygen and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide (O2 -), singlet oxygen (1O2), and so forth. In this process, Ag0 oxidizes to Ag+ and combines with CN- forming water-insoluble AgCN, and the ROS (O2 -) formed reacts with Ag/Ag+ to form Ag2O. The oxidation of Ag0 to Ag+ resulted in dissolution of AgNPs, which causes disappearance of the surface plasmon resonance band and color change from yellow to colorless. For detection of Cr(VI), ascorbic acid and CN- were added first; the ascorbic acid replaced the rosmarinic acid and then reduced the added Cr(VI) to Cr(III), and, in this process, ascorbic acid was oxidized to dehydroascorbic acid, which moved away from the nanoparticles' surface. CN- then interacted with the surface Ag0 atom, got activated, and interacted with dissolved oxygen forming Ag+ and ROS, which then followed the same process as described for CN- to form AgCN and Ag2O with a color change. The limits of detection were found to be 0.01 and 0.03 μM for CN- and Cr(VI), respectively. The material was also used for sensing CN- and Cr(VI) in real samples, and the results obtained were satisfactory. For field application, agarose-based strips were prepared by immobilizing the nanoparticles onto the agarose film and successfully used for the detection of CN- and Cr(VI) in water.

Abstract
In this study, a new method for selective determination of Cr(VI) in water samples at pH 4 is presented using raffinose capped silver nanoparticles (Ag/Raff NPs) as an optical sensor. The method is based on the variation of LSPR absorption band intensity as a result of electrostatic interaction between the negatively charged Ag/Raff NPs and positive Cr(III) ions, in-situ produced by chemical reduction of Cr(VI) with ascorbic acid, combined with the fast kinetics of Cr(III) coordination to the –OH groups of the capping agent on the nanoparticle surface, further causing the nanoparticle aggregation. The calibration curve for Cr(VI) is linear in the range 2.5–7.5 μmol L−1, the limit of quantification achieved is 1.9 μmol L−1, and values of relative standard deviation vary from 3 to 5% for concentration level 1.9–7.5 μmol L−1. The interference studies performed in the presence of various metal ions show very good selectivity of Ag/Raff NPs toward Cr(VI) species. The added–found method is used to confirm the accuracy and precision of developed analytical approach.

Abstract
In this work, amino-functionalized mesoporous silica nanospheres (NH2-mSiO2) anchored with carbon dots (CDs) have been designed to construct an outstanding fluorescent sensor for heavy metal detection. Uniform mSiO2 was chosen to provide an optically transparent scaffold for immobilizing CDs. With the help of amino group modification on the surface of silica, benzene-1,4-diboronic acid (BA) was used as raw material to load CDs in the pores of mSiO2 by one-step solvothermal method. The proposed nanohybrid can solve the problem of aggregation-induced fluorescence quenching, leading to bright blue emission at 450 nm. Meanwhile, the fluorescence of NH2-mSiO2@CDs showed high sensitivity to Cr(VI) in acetic acid buffer solution (pH = 4) with detection limit as low as 5 nM by inner filter effect (IFE) and electrostatic interaction (EI). The proposed method can also be extended to other CDs-based detection systems for chemical/biological sensors.

Abstract
Chromium is a harmful contaminant showing mutagenicity and carcinogenicity. Therefore, detection of chromium requires the development of low-cost and high-sensitivity sensors. Herein, blue-fluorescent carbon quantum dots were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method from alkali-soluble Poria cocos polysaccharide, which is green source, cheap and easy to obtain, and has no pharmacological activity due to low water solubility. These carbon quantum dots exhibit good fluorescence stability, water solubility, anti-interference and low cytotoxicity, and can be specifically combined with the detection of Cr(VI) to form a non-fluorescent complex that causes fluorescence quenching, so they can be used as a label-free nanosensor. High-sensitivity detection of Cr(VI) was achieved through internal filtering and static quenching effects. The fluorescence quenching degree of carbon dots fluorescent probe showed a good linear relationship with Cr(VI) concentration in the range of 1–100 μM. The linear equation was F0/F = 0.9942 + 0.01472 [Cr(VI)] (R2 = 0.9922), and the detection limit can be as low as 0.25 μM (S/N = 3), which has been successfully applied to Cr(VI) detection in actual water samples herein. Carbon dots was synthesized from alkaloid-soluble Poria cocos polysaccharide, which used for Cr (VI) detection. High sensitivity and selectivity detection of Cr(VI) based on internal filtering effect and static quenching mechanism. The method analysis speed is quick, sensitive, raw materials for convenient, inexpensive. The method has been applied to the determination of Cr(VI) in actual samples with satisfactory recovery.

Abstract
Mercury and its derivates cause distinct toxicity and it is detrimental to the ecosystem where the excessive concentration contributes towards the environmental pollutants. The current study reported a colorimetric method for the detection of Hg(II) ion with high specificity and selectivity using Ag-Ce nanocomposite (NC) functionalized by 3-(Trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate. The synthesized Ag-Ce NC was characterized by using double beam UV-visible spectrophotometer, zeta sizer, EDS, TEM, FT-IR, XRD and particle size analyzer. The synthesized particle possessed an average particle size of 27 ± 1 nm and zeta potential of -39.32 ± 3 mV. The brownish yellow colored Ag-Ce NC changed to colorless in presence of Hg(II) where the colorimetric detection was extremely specific and superior towards Hg(II) ion on comparing the tests with other metal ions. An excellent linear correlation was observed between absorbance (395 nm) and Hg(II) concentrations (1 nM-10 μM) (R2 = 0.988) with LOD of 0.03 nM. A cotton swab based probe was prepared for selective, elegant and low cost colorimetric method to detect Hg(II). The parametric study was performed for optimizing the suitable condition. The colorimetric probe developed by this study for Hg(II) detection using Ag-Ce NC shows excellent practical applicability.

Abstract
Development of potential sensors is inevitable for the detection of environmental pollutants including toxins, organic pollutants and heavy metal which cause hazardous effect to human and other living organisms. The present study is to develop silver nanoparticle (Ag NPs) based sensor for the accurate, sensitive and selective colorimetric detection of Hg2+ ions from aqueous samples at nano molar level. The nanoparticles were synthesized chemically and it was stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). The prepared particles were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), particle analysiser and Zetasizer. The UV-visible spectra of Ag NPs showed absorbance maximum at 392 nm. The average diameter of Ag NPs was determined to be 6 ± 0.9 nm by using particle analyzer. The zeta sizer analysis showed that the PVP stabilized Ag NPs possessed a zeta potential of -35.56 ± 3 mV. The Ag NPs-methionine conjugate showed the colour change from the brownish yellow colour to colourless when it was reacted with mercury. The Ag NPs conjugated methionine is sensitive to mercury and detects the mercury at nano molar level. The influence of other metal ion did not interfere with the detection and quantification of Hg2+. The detection of Hg2+ was also performed with paper strip and agarose gel method. The Ag NPs conjugate with methionine can applied for the detection of Hg2+ from various aqueous samples.

Abstract
A rapid, sensitive, and selective fluorometric assay is described for the determination of chromium(VI) in real waters and living cells. The method is making use of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur tri-doped carbon dots (NPS-CDs) which have absorption/emission maxima at 360/505 nm/nm. Cr(VI) has an absorption maximum at 350 nm and causes an inner filter effect (IFE) on the blue fluorescence of the NPS-CDs. The NPS-CDs were hydrothermally synthesized using p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid and tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium chloride as precursors. The NPS-CDs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and several spectroscopic methods. They are biocompatible and negligibly cytotoxic when tested with HeLa cells and MCF-7 cells even after 48 h of incubation. The NPS-CDs were used as fluorescent probes for Cr(VI). The detection limit is 0.23 μM (three times standard deviation versus slope), and the linear response covers the 1 to 500 μM chromate concentration range. The NPS-CDs were applied to the determination of Cr(VI) in real waters and living cells (HeLa and MCF-7) and gave satisfying results.

Abstract
We report a visual detection of Cr(VI) ions using silver-coated gold nanorods (AuNR@Ag) as sensing probes. Au NRs were prepared by a seed-mediated growth process and AuNR@Ag nanostructures were synthesized by growing Ag nanoshells on Au NRs. Successful coating of Ag nanoshells on the surface of Au NRs was demonstrated with TEM, EDS, and UV-vis spectrometer. By increasing the overall amount of the deposited Ag on Au NRs, the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) band was significantly blue-shifted, which allowed tuning across the visible spectrum. The sensing mechanism relies on the redox reaction between Cr(VI) ions and Ag nanoshells on Au NRs. As the concentration of Cr(VI) ions increased, more significant red-shift of the longitudinal peak and intensity decrease of the transverse peak could be observed using UV-vis spectrometer. Several parameters such as concentration of CTAB, thickness of the Ag nanoshells and pH of the sample were carefully optimized to determine Cr(VI) ions. Under optimized condition, this method showed a low detection limit of 0.4 μM and high selectivity towards Cr(VI) over other metal ions, and the detection range of Cr(VI) was tuned by controlling thickness of the Ag nanoshells. From multiple evaluations in real sample, it is clear that this method is a promising Cr(VI) ion colorimetric sensor with rapid, sensitive, and selective sensing ability.

Abstract
Biomolecules like cysteine and cytosine play a significant role in many physiological processes, and their unusual level in biological systems can lead to many diseases including cancer. Indeed, the need for selective detection of these moieties by a fluorescence probe is imperative. Thus, thiophene based Schiff N,N'-bis(thiophene-2-ylmethylene)thiophenemethane (BMTM) was synthesized and then characterized using several analytical techniques before converting it into organic nanoparticles (ONPs). Then, fluorescent organic inorganic nanohybrids (FONs) were obtained after decorating ONPs with AuNPs to yield BMTM-Au-ONPs (FONPs). The morphology of the particles, analyzed using a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), shows that AuNPs were embedded with low density organic matter (ONPs). FONPs were employed to recognize cysteine and cytosine simultaneously. No interference was observed from other moieties such as guanine, uracyl, NADH, NAD, ATP, and adenine during the detection. It means that the intensity of the fluorescence signal was significantly changed (enhanced for cytosine and quenched for cysteine). So, FONPs were used to detect cysteine and cytosine in real samples, like Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. As expected, no considerable fluorescence signal for cysteine was observed, while for cytosine, strong fluorescence signals were detected in the cells. DFT was used to explain the interaction of FONPs with cysteine or cytosine.

Abstract
Hypochlorite plays a critical role in killing microorganisms in the water. However, it can also cause cardiovascular diseases, neuron degeneration, and cancer to humans. Although traditional methods feature excellent sensitivity and reliability in detecting hypochlorite, the expensive instruments and strict determination conditions have limited their application in environmental analysis to some extent. Thus, it is necessary and urgent to propose a cheap, facile, and quick analytical assay for hypochlorite. This paper proposes a colorimetric assay for hypochlorite utilizing gold nanorods (AuNRs) as the nanoreactor and color reader. The AuNRs were acquired via a reported seed-mediated method. NaClO with strong oxidation property can cause the etching of gold from the longitudinal tips of AuNRs, which could shorten the aspect ratio of AuNRs, decrease the absorption in the UV–Vis spectrum and also induce the solution color changing from red to pale yellow. Thus, according to the solution color change and the absorbance of longitudinal surface plasmon resonance of AuNRs, we established the calibration curve of NaClO within 0.08 μM to 125 μM (∆Abs = 0.0547 + 0.004 CNaClO, R2 = 0.9631). Compared to traditional method, we obtained the conversion formula between the concentration of residual-chlorine in tap water and the concentration of hypochlorite detected by the proposed colorimetric assay, which is Cresidual-chlorine = 0.24 CNaClO. Finally, the real application of the colorimetric assay in tap water was successfully performed, and the accuracy of the colorimetric method can reach from −6.78% to +8.53%.

Abstract
The present study focuses on the utilization of green silver nanoparticles, as they are preferred for sensing applications due to their environmentally friendly nature. We have examined the optical and electrochemical sensing behavior of silver nanoparticles from Agaricus bisporus (AgNP-AB) towards Hg(II) ions. The AgNP-AB was prepared by microwave reactor. The synthesized AgNP was used for the sensing of Hg(II) ions without the use of modifiers or further sophisticated instrumentation. The synthesized nanoparticles were successfully characterized by different techniques. AgNP-AB leads to aggregation with the addition of Hg(II) ions in aqueous medium, and develops a color change from brown to black which leads to the formation of AgNP-AB-Hg(II) complex. Moreover, the metal sensing ability of AgNP has been explored using electrochemical studies. AgNP-AB modified platinum electrode (AgNP-AB/PE) was developed for the fast sensing of toxic Hg(II) ions. The sensor exhibits a good limit of detection at 2.1 × 10-6 M. The sensitivity of AgNP-AB/PE towards Hg(II) ions was analyzed with various metal ions. The sensing skill of the developed system was successfully checked with real water samples from Vembanade Lake, Kumarakom, Kerala. AgNP from A. bisporus is highly versatile and promising for different environmental applications.

Abstract
Colloidal inorganic nanoparticles have wide applications in the detection of analytes and in biological assays. A large number of these assays rely on the ability of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs, in the 20 nm diameter size range) to undergo a color change from red to blue upon aggregation. AuNP assays can be based on cross-linking, non-cross linking or unmodified charge-based aggregation. Nucleic acid-based probes, monoclonal antibodies, and molecular-affinity agents can be attached by covalent or non-covalent means. Surface plasmon resonance and SERS techniques can be utilized. Silver NPs also have attractive optical properties (higher extinction coefficient). Combinations of AuNPs and AgNPs in nanocomposites can have additional advantages. Magnetic NPs and ZnO, TiO2 and ZnS as well as insulator NPs including SiO2 can be employed in colorimetric assays, and some can act as peroxidase mimics in catalytic applications. This review covers the synthesis and stabilization of inorganic NPs and their diverse applications in colorimetric and optical assays for analytes related to environmental contamination (metal ions and pesticides), and for early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases, using medically important biomarkers.

Abstract
Selective determination of aquatic chromium is critically important because of the dramatic differences in health and environment impacts by trivalent and hexavalent forms of chromium; however, it is challenging. In this work, for the first time, a nonconjugated polymer fluorophore (GCPF) was synthesized by cross-linking chitosan with glutaraldehyde via Schiff base reactions and systematically investigated for selective determination of Cr(VI). The results revealed that the synthesized GCPF exhibited excellent photostability and water solubility. More importantly, GCPF possessed dramatically enhanced fluorescence intensity originated from the n-π* transitions of the Schiff base subfluorophore groups (e.g., C═N) that can be selectively and sensitively quenched by Cr(VI) through oxidative damages to C═N group. An effective EDTA masking agent approach was employed to minimize ionic interferences. In the presence of high concentration of interference ions including Cr(III), the quenching GCPF fluorescence is capable of selectively determining Cr(VI) within a concentration range up to 50 μM and a detection limit of 0.22 μM. The analytical performance of GCPF was also confirmed by analyzing real surface water and industrial samples.

Abstract
Developing thiosulfate (S2O32-) sensors with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for analysis of aqueous solutions with the interference of other anions remains challenging. In this study, we propose a new strategy for excellent selective colorimetric detection of S2O32-. The nonmorphological transition of AgNPs leading to a color change from yellow to brown is verified by UV-vis, TEM, DLS, SEM, and XPS analyses. The sensor exhibits high sensitivity with detection limits of 1.0 μM by naked-eye determination and 0.2 μM by UV-vis spectroscopy analysis. The linear relationship (R2 = 0.998) between the (A0 - A)/A0 values and S2O32- concentrations from 0.2 μM to 2.0 μM indicates that the fabricated AgNPs-based colorimetric sensor can be employed for quantitative assay of S2O32-. Colorimetric responses are also monitored using the built-in camera of a smartphone. The sensor shows a linear response to S2O32- in 0-20.0 μM solutions under the optimized conditions and is thus more suitable for rapid on-site tests than other detection methods. A smartphone application (app) is downloaded under Android or IOS platforms to measure the RGB (red, green, blue) values of the colorimetric sensor after exposure to the analyte. Following data processing, the RGB values are converted into concentration values by using preloaded calibration curves. Confirmatory analysis indicates that the proposed S2O32- colorimetric sensor exhibits feasibility and sensitivity for S2O32- detection in real environmental samples.

We report a visual chronometric assay for Cr3+ based on the Cu2O nanocube-mediated clock reaction of methylene blue (MB) and N2H4. MB with a blue color can be easily reduced by excess N2H4 to form colorless leuco-MB in the presence of Cu2O nanocubes as a catalyst in a short time. However, the addition of Cr3+ decreases the catalytic activity of Cu2O nanocubes owing to the coordination interactions between them, leading to an increase in the reaction time. The reaction time change was employed for selective detection of Cr3+. This assay has a wide dynamic range from 0.03 to 600 μM with a limit of detection of 2.7 nM. Remarkably, different concentrations of Cr3+ can be directly detected with the naked eye by observing the color-fading speed. Additionally, this assay was successfully used to determine Cr3+ in real water samples.

Abstract
Selectivity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) depends upon surface functionality; small changes in structure or concentration bring significant changes in the behavior of AuNPs. In this study, citrate-capped AuNPs were functionalized with ortho-dicarboxylate substituted pyridine (2,3-PDCA) and detailed studies on experimental conditions were carried out to check the stability of AuNPs and response for Cr3+. Stability of PDCA-AuNPs was found sensitive to the pH, ionic strength of buffer and its type. Capping behavior of PDCA on C-AuNPs was examined by FTIR spectroscopy. Surface morphology and size of synthesized AuNPs were confirmed by AFM, XRD, and DLS techniques where particles were found 11nm in size, monodisperse and spherical in shape. Interaction of stabilized AuNPs was tested with various metal ions; where Cr3+ induced the changes in localized surface plasmon band (LSPR) of PDCA-AuNPs which leads to a color change from wine red to violet blue. The phenomenon is explained as cooperative effect of citrate and pyridine nitrogen on surface of AuNPs in contrary to meta-dicarboxylate substituted pyridine derivatives. Further, under optimized and controlled conditions Cr3+ shows linear response with decrease in absorbance at LSPR intensity of AuNPs (518nm). Moreover, to demonstrate the applicability of method, Cr3+ was determined in the presence of Cr (VI) which shows 96% recovery.

Abstract
In this article we report a novel method for colorimetric sensing and selective determination of a non-chromophoric drug-azithromycin, which lacks native absorbance in the UV-Visible region using unmodified silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The citrate-capped AgNps dispersed in water afforded a bright yellow colour owing to the electrostatic repulsion between the particles due to the presence of negatively charged surface and showed surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band at 394nm. Addition of positively charged azithromycin at a concentration as low as 0.2μM induced rapid aggregation of AgNPs by neutralizing the negative charge on the particle surface. This phenomenon resulted in the colour change from bright yellow to purple which could be easily observed by the naked eye. This provided a simple platform for rapid determination of azithromycin based on colorimetric measurements. The factors affecting the colorimetric response like pH, volume of AgNPs suspension and incubation time were suitably optimized. The validated method was found to work efficiently in the established concentration range of 0.2-100.0μM using two different calibration models. The selectivity of the method was also evaluated by analysis of nanoparticles-aggregation response upon addition of several anions, cations and some commonly prescribed antibiotics. The method was successfully applied for the analysis of azithromycin in pharmaceuticals and spiked human plasma samples with good accuracy and precision. The simplicity, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the method hold tremendous potential for the analysis of such non-chromophoric pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
A rapid and highly sensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) method has been proposed for the determination of trace amounts of chromium in water samples under visible-light irradiation. Here, a unique nanostructured hybrid of formate anion incorporated graphitic carbon nitride (F-g-C3N4) is smartly integrated with a Cr(VI) ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) as a photoactive electrode (denoted as IIP@F-g-C3N4). The nanohybrid of F-g-C3N4 exhibits an enhanced charge separation with substantially improved PEC responses versus g-C3N4. The newly designed IIP@F-g-C3N4 PEC sensor exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity for the determination of Cr(VI) because it offers efficient photogenerated electron reduction toward Cr(VI). The PEC analysis is highly linear over Cr(VI) concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 100.00ppb with a detection limit of 0.006ppb (S/N=3). Our approach can be used to detect Cr(VI), Cr(III) and the total chromium level in aqueous solution through oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI) and the determination of the total chromium as Cr(VI). In practical applications, this low-cost and sensitive assay has been successfully applied for speciation determination of chromium in environmental water samples.
