Abstract
Leishmaniasis is a neglected parasitic tropical disease with numerous clinical manifestations. One of the causative agents of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is Leishmania tropica (L. tropica) known for causing ulcerative lesions on the skin. The adverse effects of the recommended available drugs, such as amphotericin B and pentavalent antimonial, and the emergence of drug resistance in parasites, mean the search for new safe and effective anti-leishmanial agents is crucial. Miltefosine (MIL) was the first recommended oral medication, but its use is now limited because of the rapid emergence of resistance. Pharmaceutical cocrystallization is an effective method to improve the physicochemical and biological properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Herein, we describe the cocrystallization of coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (CU, 1a; 2-oxobenzopyrane-3-carboxylic acid, C10H6O4) with five coformers [2-amino-3-bromopyridine (1b), 2-amino-5-(trifluoromethyl)-pyridine (1c), 2-amino-6-methylpyridine (1d), p-aminobenzoic acid (1e) and amitrole (1f)] in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio via the neat grinding method. The cocrystals 2-6 obtained were characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis, as well as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Non-covalent interactions, such as van der Waals, hydrogen bonding, C-H...π and π...π interactions contribute significantly towards the packing of a crystal structure and alter the physicochemical and biological activity of CU. In this research, newly synthesized cocrystals were evaluated for their anti-leishmanial activity against the MIL-resistant L. tropica and cytotoxicity against the 3T3 (normal fibroblast) cell line. Among the non-cytotoxic cocrystals synthesized (2-6), CU:1b (2, IC50 = 61.83 ± 0.59 µM), CU:1c (3, 125.7 ± 1.15 µM) and CU:1d (4, 48.71 ± 0.75 µM) appeared to be potent anti-leishmanial agents and showed several-fold more anti-leishmanial potential than the tested standard drug (MIL, IC50 = 169.55 ± 0.078 µM). The results indicate that cocrystals 2-4 are promising anti-leishmanial agents which require further exploration.

Abstract
Here, the fluorescence properties of some plant-based drug samples are characterized using a coherent excitation source at 405 nm. The laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy is examined to analyze opium and hashish. In order to improve traditional fluorescence methods for better analysis of optically dense materials, we have proposed five characteristic parameters based on solvent densitometry assay as the fingerprints of drugs of interest. The signal emissions are recorded in terms of various drug concentrations, such that the best fitting over experimental data determines the fluorescence extinction (α) and self-quenching (k) coefficients according to the modified Beer-Lambert formalism. The typical α value is determined to be 0.30 and 0.15 mL/(cm∙mg) for opium and hashish, respectively. Similarly, typical k is obtained 0.390 and 1.25 mL/(cm∙mg), respectively. Furthermore, the concentration at max fluorescence intensity (Cp) is determined for opium and hashish to be 1.8 and 1.3 mg/mL, respectively. Results reveal that opium and hashish benefit their own characteristic fluorescence parameters to discriminate those illicit substances promptly using the present method.

Abstract
A 2D flow cytometry platform, known as CytoLM Plus, was developed for multi-parameter single-cell analysis. Single particles or cells after hydrodynamic alignment in a microfluidic unit undergo first-dimension fluorescence and side scattering dual-channel optical detection. They were thereafter immediately directed to ICP-MS by connecting the microfluidic unit with a high-efficiency nebulizer to facilitate the second-dimension ICP-MS detection. Flow cytometry measurements of fluorescent microspheres evaluated the performance of CytoLM Plus for optical detection. 6434 fluorescence bursts were observed with a valid signal proportion as high as 99.7%. After signal unification and gating analysis, 6067 sets of single-particle signals were obtained with 6.6 and 6.2% deviations for fluorescence burst area and height, respectively. This is fairly comparable with that achieved by a commercial flow cytometer. Afterward, CytoLM Plus was evaluated by 2D flow cytometry measurement of Ag+-incubated and AO-stained MCF-7 cells. A program for 2D single-cell signal unification was developed based on the algorithm of screening in lag time window. In the present case, a lag time window of -4.2 ± 0.09 s was determined by cross-correlation analysis and two-parameter optimization, which efficiently unified the concurrent single-cell signals from fluorescence, side scattering, and ICP-MS. A total of 495 sets of concurrent 2D signals were screened out, and the statistical analysis of these single-cell signals ensured 2D multi-parameter single-cell analysis and data elucidation.

Abstract
Flavonoids are a class of natural polyphenolic compounds with great health benefits, and the development of methods for their analysis is of continuing interest. In this work, apigenin, kaempferol and formononetin were selected as the typical representatives of flavone, flavonol and isoflavone, three subclasses of flavonoids. Fluorescence studies revealed that tetraborate complexation could significantly sensitize the weak intrinsic fluorescence of flavonoids in solution, with a maximum of 137-fold for kaempferol. Subsequently, an integrated strategy of derivatization and separation was proposed for the universal analysis of flavonoids by capillary electrophoresis (CE) with 405 nm laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection. Using a running buffer consisting of 20 mM sodium tetraborate, 10 mM SDS and 10% methanol (pH 8.5), the dynamic derivatization was realized in the capillary, and the baseline separation was achieved within 10 min, with the detection limits of 0.92-35.46 nM (S/N=3) for the total of 9 flavonoids. The developed CE-LIF method was employed to the quantitative analysis of some flavonoids in Medicago sativa (alfalfa) plants and granulated alfalfa with the recoveries of 80.55-94.25%. Combined with the principal component analysis, the developed method was successfully applied to the non-destructive distinction of single seed for alfalfa and Melilotus officinalis (sweet clover), two forage grass seeds with very similar apparent morphology. Furthermore, this method was used to continuously monitor the substance metabolism during the soaking process at the level of single seed.

Abstract
Efficient methods for monitoring sulfonamides (SAs) in water and animal-source foods are of great importance to achieve environmental safety and protect human health. Here, we demonstrate a reusable and label-free electrochemical sensor for the rapid and sensitive detection of sulfamethizole based on an electropolymerized molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) film as the recognition layer. To achieve effective recognition, monomer screening among four kinds of 3-substituted thiophenes was performed by computational simulation and subsequent experimental evaluation, and 3-thiopheneethanol was finally selected. MIP synthesis is very fast and green, and can be in situ fabricated on the transducer surface within 30 min in an aqueous solution. The preparation process of the MIP was characterized by electrochemical techniques. Various parameters affecting MIP fabrication and its recognition response were investigated in detail. Under optimized experimental conditions, good linearity in the range of 0.001-10 μM and a low determination limit of 0.18 nM were achieved for sulfamethizole. The sensor showed excellent selectivity, which can distinguish between structurally similar SAs. In addition, the sensor displayed good reusability and stability. Even after 7 days of storage, or being reused 7 times, higher than 90% of the initial determination signals were retained. The practical applicability of the sensor was also demonstrated in spiked water and milk samples at the nM determination level with satisfactory recoveries. Compared to relevant methods for SAs, this sensor is more convenient, rapid, economical, and eco-friendly, and had comparable or even higher sensitivity, which offered a simple and efficient method for SA detection.

Abstract
Flow cytometry is among the most powerful tools for single-cell analysis, while the high cost and mechanical complexity of the commercial instrumentation limit the applications in personalized single-cell analysis. For this issue, we hereby construct an open and low-cost flow cytometer. It is highly compact to integrate the functions of (1) single cell aligning by a lab-made modularized 3D hydrodynamic focusing device, and (2) fluorescence detection of the single cells by a confocal laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detector. The ceiling cost of the entire hardware for the LIF detection unit and 3D focusing device is $ 3200 and $ 400 respectively. A sheath flow velocity of 150 μL/min produces a focused sample stream of 17.6 μm × 14.6 μm at sample flow of 2 μL/min, based on the LIF response frequency and the laser beam spot diameter. The assay performance of the flow cytometer was evaluated by characterizing fluorescent microparticles and acridine orange (AO) stained HepG2 cells, producing throughputs of 40.5/s and 6.2/s respectively. Favorable assay precision and accuracy were demonstrated by the agreement of frequency histogram with imaging analysis, and good Gaussian-like distributions of fluorescent microparticles and AO-stained HepG2 cells. Practically, the flow cytometer was successfully applied for the evaluation of ROS generation in single HepG2 cells.

Abstract
Sensitivity, specificity, mobility, and affordability are important criteria to consider for developing diagnostic instruments in common use. Fluorescence spectroscopy has been demonstrating substantial potential in the clinical diagnosis of diseases and evaluating the underlying causes of pathogenesis. A higher degree of device integration with appropriate sensitivity and reasonable cost would further boost the value of the fluorescence techniques in clinical diagnosis and aid in the reduction of healthcare expenses, which is a key economic concern in emerging markets. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which are inexpensive and smaller are attractive alternatives to conventional excitation sources in fluorescence spectroscopy, are gaining a lot of momentum in the development of affordable, compact analytical instruments of clinical relevance. The commercial availability of a broad range of LED wavelengths (255-4600 nm) has opened up new avenues for targeting a wide range of clinically significant molecules (both endogenous and exogenous), thereby diagnosing a range of clinical illnesses. As a result, we have specifically examined the uses of LED-induced fluorescence (LED-IF) in preclinical and clinical evaluations of pathological conditions, considering the present advancements in the field.

Abstract
In this work, new electrochemical sensors based on the modification of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)-rare metal oxides (REMO) nanocomposites were fabricated by drop-to-drop method of MWCNTs-REMO dispersion in ethanol. REMO nanoparticles were synthesized by precipitation followed by hydrothermal treatment at 180 °C in absence and presence of TritonTM X-100 surfactant. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) analysis using MWCNTs-CeO2@GCE and MWCNTs-Yb2O3@GCE sensors were used for the analysis of sulfisoxazole (SFX) drug in water samples. The results of CV analysis showed that MWCNTs-REMO@GCE sensors have up to 40-fold higher sensitivity with CeO2 compared to the bare GCE sensor. The estimated values of the limit of detection (LoD) of this electrochemical sensing using MWCNTs-CeO2@GCE and MWCNTs-Yb2O3@GCE electrodes reached 0.4 and 0.7 μM SFX in phosphate buffer pH = 7, respectively. These findings indicate that MWCNTs-REMO@GCE electrodes are potential sensors for analysis of sulfonamide drugs in water and biological samples.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues in aquatic environments have attracted wide attention. Considering the impacts on the ecosystem and human health, it is urgent to develop a rapid method for detecting antibiotic residues in the environment. In this work, a nanoscale lanthanide metal-organic framework Eu(TATB) with a stable red luminescence in aqueous solution is synthesized by the microemulsion method. Sulfamethazine (SMZ) is frequently most used in veterinary medicine as one of sulfonamides. Eu(TATB) can be used for sensitively and rapidly specific recognition of SMZ with low detection limit (0.67 μM) and eminent recyclability. In addition, a paper-based visual system for point-of-care (POC) monitoring SMZ is devised by both using filter paper embedded with Eu(TATB) and our developed portable smartphone-involved imaging cassette. The naked eyes can observe that the red luminescence of the paper sensor gradually fades away at the presence of SMZ. This provides a reliable and effective method for on-site detection of sulfonamide antibiotics in the field of environmental monitoring.

Abstract
A two-dimensional cytometry platform (CytoLM) with high sensitivity and high temporal resolution is developed for single-particle and single-cell sampling and analysis. First, a Dean flow-assisted vortex capillary cell sampling (VCCS) unit confines the sample stream in curved flow and drives to focus and align the particles or cells in a small probe volume. By coupling VCCS to a laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detector with data acquisition and processing capability, a high-throughput single-particle/cell analysis system (VCCS-LIF) was established. The particle analysis throughput of 119.42/s and a detection recovery of 78.20 ± 1.75% were achieved at a density of 9.16 × 104/mL for fluorescent particles, and the cell analysis throughput is 48.20/s at a density of 1.5 × 105/mL. Second, the CytoLM platform is constructed by hyphenating VCCS-LIF with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). In the analysis of HepG2 cells by Ag+ incubation and AO staining, 10,760 fluorescence bursts and 3068 MS events were observed in 240 s. Invalid signals due to undispersed cells were controlled at 3.80% for LIF and 1.01% for MS, with a proportion of effective signal of >96.20%. After peak identification and integral processing of the original data, the statistical results including peak area, height, width, and spacing are obtained concurrently and the information on concentration and elemental quantification of single cells is evaluated. CytoLM facilitates high-throughput, multi-dimensional, and multi-parameter characterization of particles and cells, and it may provide vast potential in life science analysis.

Abstract
Several applications of graphene oxide (GO) have been established over the years, and it has the potential to be used as a biomedical material. Studying the effect of GO on protein-ligand (small molecules/drugs) complex systems are vital as the mechanisms involved are not well understood. The interaction of GO on the protein-ligand binding is also vital for the preparation of an effective drug carrier in the bloodstream. In this work, we have tried to explore in details the effect of GO on the interaction between a hydrophilic molecule, namely, 7-(N,N'-diethylamino) coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (7-DCA) with human serum albumin (HSA) by employing multispectroscopic, microscopic, calorimetric, and molecular docking studies. We find out that protein-ligand complexes were placed on the GO surface, and GO gives stability to the protein-ligand complex via hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, and so forth. Due to the presence of a large surface area in GO, it offers a hydrophobic environment, and as a result, the emission maxima of 7-DCA in the ternary complex is more blue-shifted, and the average lifetime becomes higher compared to the binary system. Circular dichroism spectral studies give information about the conformational changes of HSA in the absence and presence of GO when it forms complex with 7-DCA. The fluorescence lifetime imaging study shows the presence of the 7-DCA/HSA complex on the GO sheet. Molecular docking simulation shows that the closest distance between 7-DCA and HSA is 11.9 Å, and the protein interacted with the ligand through hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interaction, and so forth.

Abstract
Nanohybrid magnetic optosensing probes were designed and fabricated to enrich and detect ultra-trace levels of mafenide and sulfisoxazole simultaneously. The probes combined the high affinity of MIL-101 and the sensitivity of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs) with the selectivity and rapid separation provided by a magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (MMIP). Since the MIL101-MMIP-GQD and MIL101-MMIP-CdTe QD probes produced high fluorescence emission intensities at 435 and 572 nm, respectively, mafenide and sulfisoxazole could be simultaneously detected. Quantitative analysis was based on fluorescence quenching produced by binding between target molecules and imprinted recognition cavities. In the optimal experimental condition, emission intensity was quenched linearly with increasing analyte concentration from 0.10 to 25.0 μg L-1. Limit of detection was 0.10 μg L-1 for mafenide and sulfisoxazole. The developed optosensor was applied to detect ultra-trace amounts of mafenide and sulfisoxazole in bovine milk. Recoveries of mafenide and sulfisoxazole in spiked bovine milk ranged from 80.4 to 97.9% with RSDs <5% and the analysis results agreed well with HPLC analysis. The proposed probes provided excellent sensitivity, selectivity, ease and convenience of use.

After enjoying curry: urine metabolism analysis of curcuminoids by microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography with laser-induced native fluorescence detection. J Chromatogr A 2020; 1635:461729.

Abstract
Considering pH-dependent fluorescence of curcuminoids, a microemulsion electrokinetic chromatographic (MEEKC) method was developed under acidic conditions for their separation and detection using laser-induced native fluorescence (LINF), so as to solve the analysis of urine metabolism for curcuminoids. The microemulsion composition was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM), and the effects of buffer pH and organic modifiers were systematically investigated. The optimal buffer for the separation of curcuminoids was chosen as follows: 2.8% (v/v) ethyl acetate, 80 mM SDS and 2.8% (v/v) n-butanol to form microemulsion, 28% (v/v) ethanol as organic modifier, and 20 mM phosphoric acid as electrolyte at pH 3.0. Under these conditions, four curcuminoids including curcumin, demethoxy curcumin (DMC), bisdemethoxy curcumin (BDMC) and demethyl curcumin (DEC) could be well separated within 18 min, and the detection limits (LOD, based on S/N=3) were calculated to be 71, 60, 22, and 147 pg mL-1, respectively. Combined with solid-phase extraction (SPE), the developed MEEKC-LINF method has been successfully applied to continuously monitor the curcuminoids and related metabolites in human urine collected from a healthy volunteer after oral administration of curry, testifying that this method has potential for evaluating the pharmacological activity of curcuminoids.

Abstract
A twin enrichment method based on offline dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with online field-amplified sample injection (FASI) was developed for the simultaneous determination of four sulfonamide (SA) antibiotics, including sulfamethazine (SMZ), sulfamerazine (SMR), sulfadizine (SDZ) and sulfacetamide (SFA), in different environmental waters, followed by capillary electrophoresis (CE). Various parameters that affected the separation performance of CE and the enrichment efficiencies of DLLME and FASI were optimized in detail, and excellent CE separation was attained within 6 min. The DLLME-FASI-CE offered high sensitivity enrichment factors of 206, 166, 185 and 150 for SMZ, SMR, SDZ and SFA, respectively. Highly sensitive detection was realized with low limits of detection (LODs), which ranged from 2.0-23.0, 2.2-26.0 and 4.3-63.0 ng mL-1 in tap water, lake water and seawater, respectively, as well as limits of quantification (LOQs) within 6.0-63.0, 7.4-96.0 and 14.0-201.0 ng mL-1, respectively. Satisfactory recoveries in the range of 91-108% were obtained with the three spiked environmental water samples, and the relative standard deviations were from 1.09-7.45%. The simple effective twin enrichment method provided promising perspective for CE determination of SAs in complicated aqueous matrices, with rapidity, sensitivity, and accuracy.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis using laser-induced fluorescence detection (CE-LIF) is one of the most sensitive separation tools among electrical separation methods. The use of CE-LIF in immunoassays and enzyme assays has gained a reputation in recent years for its high detection sensitivity, short analysis time, and accurate quantification. Immunoassays are bioassay platforms that rely on binding reactions between an antigen (analyte) and a specific antibody. Enzyme assays measure enzymatic activity through quantitative analysis of substrates and products by the reaction of enzymes in purified enzyme or cell systems. These two category analyses play an important role in the context of biopharmaceutical analysis, clinical therapy, drug discovery, and diagnosis analysis. This review discusses the expanding portfolio of immune and enzyme assays using CE-LIF and focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of these methods over the ten years of existing technology since 2008.
