Abstract
In this perspective, we provide an overview of the recent achievements in luminescent lanthanide-based molecular cluster-aggregates (MCAs) and illustrate why MCAs can be seen as the next generation of highly efficient optical materials. MCAs are high nuclearity compounds composed of rigid multinuclear metal cores encapsulated by organic ligands. The combination of high nuclearity and molecular structure makes MCAs an ideal class of compounds that can unify the properties of traditional nanoparticles and small molecules. By bridging the gap between both domains, MCAs intrinsically retain unique features with tremendous impacts on their optical properties. Although homometallic luminescent MCAs have been extensively studied since the late 1990s, it was only recently that heterometallic luminescent MCAs were pioneered as tunable luminescent materials. These heterometallic systems have shown tremendous impacts in areas such as anti-counterfeiting materials, luminescent thermometry, and molecular upconversion, thus representing a new generation of lanthanide-based optical materials.

A review of spectroscopic probes constructed from aptamer-binding gold/silver nanoparticles or their dimers in environmental pollutants' detection. ANAL SCI 2022; 38:1247-1259. [PMID: 35930232 DOI: 10.1007/s44211-022-00168-6] [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: 05/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
The issue of environmental pollutant residues has gained wide public attention all along. Therefore, it is necessary to develop simple, rapid, economical, portable, and sensitive detection techniques, which have become the focus of research in the pollutants detection field. Spectroscopy is one of the most convenient, simple, rapid, and intuitive analytical tools that can provide accurate information, such as ultraviolet spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, plasmon resonance spectroscopy, etc. Gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, and their dimers with unique optical properties are commonly used in the construction of spectroscopic probes. As a class of oligonucleotides that can recognize specific target molecules, aptamers also have a strong ability to recognize small-molecule pollutants. The application of aptamer-binding metal nanoparticles in biosensing detection presents significant advantages for instance high sensitivity, good selectivity, and rapid analysis. And many spectroscopic probes constructed by aptamer-binding gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, or their dimers have been successfully demonstrated for detecting pollutants. This review summarizes the progress, advantages, and disadvantages of aptamer sensing techniques constructed by visual colorimetric, fluorescence, Raman, and plasmon resonance spectroscopic probes combining gold/silver nanoparticles or their dimers in the field of pollutants detection, and discusses the prospects and challenges for their future.

Abstract
Multiphoton upconversion that can convert near-infrared irradiation into ultraviolet emission offers many unique opportunities for photocatalysis and phototherapy. However, the high-lying excited states of lanthanide emitters are often quenched by the interior lattice defects and deleterious interactions among different lanthanides, resulting in weak ultraviolet emission. Here, we describe a novel excitation energy lock-in approach to boost ultraviolet upconversion emission in a new class of multilayer core-shell nanoparticles with a gadolinium-rich core domain. Remarkably, we observe more than 70-fold enhancements in Gd 3+ emission from the designed nanoparticles compared with the conventional nanoparticles. Our mechanistic investigation reveals that the combination of energy migration over the core domain and optically inert NaYF 4 interlayer can effectively confine the excitation energy and thus lead to intense multiphoton ultraviolet emission in upconversion nanostructures. We further achieve a 35.6% increase in photocatalytic reactivity and 26.5% in reactive oxygen species production yield in ZnO-coated upconversion nanocomposites under 808-nm excitation. This study provides a new insight to energy transfer mechanism in lanthanide-doped nanoparticles, and offers an exciting avenue for exploring novel near-infrared photocatalysts.

Abstract
Various fluctuations of intracellular ions, biomolecules, and other conditions in the physiological environment play crucial roles in fundamental biological processes. These factors are of great importance for analysis in biomedical detection. Nevertheless, developments of the simple, rapid, and accurate proof for specific detection still encounter major challenges. Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), which could absorb multiple low-energy near-infrared light (NIR) photon excitation and emits high-energy photons caused by anti-Stokes shift, show unique upconversion luminescence (UCL) properties, for example, sharp emission band, high physicochemical stability like near-zero photobleaching, photo blinking in biological tissues, and long luminescence lifetime. Furthermore, the NIR used for the light source to excite UCNPs enable lower photo-damage effect and deeper penetration of tissue, and in the meantime, it can avoid the auto-fluorescence and light scattering from biological tissue interference. Thus, the lanthanide-doped UCNP-based functional platform with controlled structure, crystalline phase, size, and multicolor emission has become an appropriate nanomaterial for bioapplications such as biosensing, bioimaging, drug release, and therapies. In this review, the recent progress about synthesis and biomedical applications of UCNPs related to sensing and bioimaging is summarized. Firstly, the different luminescence mechanisms of the upconversion process are presented. Secondly, four of the most common methods for synthesizing UCNPs are compared as well as the advantages and disadvantages of these synthetic routes. Meanwhile, the surface modification of lanthanide-doped UCNPs was introduced to pave the way for their biochemistry applications. Next, this review detailed the biological applications of lanthanide-doped UCNPs, particularly in bioimaging, including UCL and multi-modal imaging and biosensing (monitoring intracellular ions and biomolecules). Finally, the challenges and future perspectives in materials science and biomedical fields of UCNPs are concluded: the low quantum yield of the upconversion process should be considered when they are executed as imaging contrast agents. And the biosafety of lanthanide-doped UCNPs needs to be evaluated.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs) with near-infrared fluorescence (NIR) are an emerging class of QDs with unique capabilities owing to the deeper tissue penetrability of NIR light compared with visible light. NIR light also effectively overcomes organism autofluorescence, making NIR QDs particularly attractive in biological imaging applications for disease diagnosis. Considering latest developments, Ag2 S QDs are a rising star among NIR QDs due to their excellent NIR fluorescence properties and biocompatibility. This review presents the various methods to synthesize NIR Ag2 S QDs, and systematically discusses their applications in biosensing, bioimaging, and theranostics. Major challenges and future perspectives concerning the synthesis and bioapplications of NIR Ag2 S QDs are discussed.

Abstract
Research related to the development and application of luminescent nanoparticles (LNPs) for chemical and biological analysis and imaging is flourishing. Novel materials and new applications continue to be reported after two decades of research. This review provides a comprehensive and heuristic overview of this field. It is targeted to both newcomers and experts who are interested in a critical assessment of LNP materials, their properties, strengths and weaknesses, and prospective applications. Numerous LNP materials are cataloged by fundamental descriptions of their chemical identities and physical morphology, quantitative photoluminescence (PL) properties, PL mechanisms, and surface chemistry. These materials include various semiconductor quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene derivatives, carbon dots, nanodiamonds, luminescent metal nanoclusters, lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles and downshifting nanoparticles, triplet-triplet annihilation nanoparticles, persistent-luminescence nanoparticles, conjugated polymer nanoparticles and semiconducting polymer dots, multi-nanoparticle assemblies, and doped and labeled nanoparticles, including but not limited to those based on polymers and silica. As an exercise in the critical assessment of LNP properties, these materials are ranked by several application-related functional criteria. Additional sections highlight recent examples of advances in chemical and biological analysis, point-of-care diagnostics, and cellular, tissue, and in vivo imaging and theranostics. These examples are drawn from the recent literature and organized by both LNP material and the particular properties that are leveraged to an advantage. Finally, a perspective on what comes next for the field is offered.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria have become a huge threat to social health and economy for their frighteningly infectious and lethal capacity. It is quite important to make a diagnosis in advance to prevent infection or allow a rapid treatment after infection. Noble metal nanoparticles, due to their unique physicochemical properties, especially optical properties, have drawn a great attention during the past decades and have been widely applied into all kinds of fields related to human health. By utilizing these noble metal nanoparticles, optical diagnosis platforms towards pathogenic bacteria have emerged continually, providing highly sensitive, selective, and particularly facile detection tools for clinic or point-of-care diagnosis. This review summarizes the recent development in this field. It begins with a brief introduction of pathogenic bacteria and noble metal nanoparticles. And then, optical detection methods are systematically discussed in three distinct aspects. In addition to these proof-of-concept methods, corresponding algorithms and point-of-care detection devices are also described. Finally, the review ends up with subjective views on present limitations and some appropriate advice for future research directions.

Abstract
Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have been extensively investigated due to their unique capabilities of upconverting near-infrared light (NIR) to visible/ultraviolet emission. However, use of conventional Yb-based UCNPs under 980 nm excitation for biomedical applications is limited due to the overheating caused by the strong light absorption by water at this wavelength. Although this could be improved by using Nd3+-Yb3+ codoped UCNPs and changing the excitation wavelength to 808 nm, the amount of Nd3+ doping is usually below 20 mol% due to the lattice strain in highly Nd-doped core-shell structures. In this study, we report Nd3+-sensitized NaYF4:Yb,Er@NaLuF4:Nd@NaLuF4 UCNPs, in which the NaLuF4 in the intermediate shell can accommodate more structural changes caused by the Nd3+ doping, and allow for high concentration of Nd3+ doping (up to 50 mol%). Due to such high Nd3+ doping in the nanostructure, the red and green upconversion emissions of as-synthesized UCNPs are significantly increased upon 808 nm excitation, which are used to activate two photosensitizer drugs, MC540 (merocyanine 540) and FePc (iron phthalocyanine), for the dual photodynamic and photothermal therapy. The results show that the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon 808 nm light excitation is substantially boosted due to the synergistic therapeutic effect, which significantly prohibits the growth of cancer cells. It is believed that the nanoplatform specially developed in this study can solve the overheating issue associated with the 980 nm light excitation and the combined photodynamic and photothermal therapy can significantly improve the cancer therapy efficacy.

Abstract
Looking for upconverting biocompatible nanoparticles, we have prepared by the sol-gel method, silica-calcia glass nanopowders doped with different concentration of Tm3+ and Yb3+ ions (Tm3+ from 0.15 mol% up to 0.5 mol% and Yb3+ from 1 mol% up to 4 mol%) and characterized their structure, morphology, and optical properties. X-ray diffraction patterns indicated an amorphous phase of the silica-based glass with partial crystallization of samples with a higher content of lanthanides ions. Transmission electron microscopy images showed that the average size of particles decreased with increasing lanthanides content. The upconversion (UC) emission spectra and fluorescence lifetimes were registered under near infrared excitation (980 nm) at room temperature to study the energy transfer between Yb3+ and Tm3+ at various active ions concentrations. Characteristic emission bands of Tm3+ ions in the range of 350 nm to 850 nm were observed. To understand the mechanism of Yb3+-Tm3+ UC energy transfer in the SiO2-CaO powders, the kinetics of luminescence decays were studied.

Abstract
The existence of contaminants in food poses a serious threat to human health. In recent years, aptamer sensors (aptasensors) have been developed rapidly for the detection of food contaminants because of their high specificity, design flexibility, and high efficiency. However, the development of high-throughput, highly sensitive, on-site, and cost-effective methods for simultaneous detection of food contaminants is still restricted due to multiple signal overlap or mutual interference and cross-reaction between different analytes with similar molecular structures. To overcome these problems, this Review summarizes some effective strategies from the articles published in recent years about multiplexed aptasensors for the simultaneous detection of food contaminants. This work focuses on the application of multiplexed aptasensors to simultaneously detect antibiotics, pathogens, and mycotoxins in food. These aptasensors mainly contain fluorescent aptasensors, electrochemical aptasensors, surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based aptasensors, microfluidic chip aptasensors, and paper-based multiplexed aptasensors. In addition, this Review also covers the application of nucleic acid cycle amplification and nanomaterial amplification strategies to improve the detection sensitivity. Finally, the limitations and challenges in the design of multiplexed aptasensor are also taken into account.

Abstract
We demonstrate the potential of time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy for the straightforward assessment and in situ monitoring of the stability of upconversion nanocrystals (UCNPs). Therefore, we prepared hexagonal NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ UCNPs with various coatings with a focus on phosphonate ligands of different valency, using different ligand exchange procedures, and studied their dissolution behaviour in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) dispersions at 20 °C and 37 °C with various analytical methods. The amount of the released UCNPs constituting fluoride ions was quantified by potentiometry using a fluoride ion-sensitive electrode and particle disintegration was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy studies of the differently aged UCNPs. In parallel, the luminescence features of the UCNPs were measured with special emphasis on the lifetime of the sensitizer emission to demonstrate its suitability as screening parameter for UCNP stability and changes in particle composition. The excellent correlation between the changes in luminescence lifetime and fluoride concentration highlights the potential of our luminescence lifetime method for UCNP stability screening and thereby indirect monitoring of the release of potentially hazardous fluoride ions during uptake and dissolution in biological systems. Additionally, the developed in situ optical method was used to distinguish the dissolution dynamics of differently sized and differently coated UCNPs.

Abstract
Water-soluble K5 HoLi2 F10 (KHLF) nanoprobes with the excitation and emission both in the near-infrared (NIR) region were developed and first demonstrated for in vivo imaging of living mice. The PEG400 coating endows the nanoprobes with good water solubility and biocompatibility. Doping with Ho3+ ions is capable of emitting NIR fluorescence with two peaks centered, respectively, at 887 and 1,180 nm once excited by a 808 nm laser; meanwhile, it also possess good photothermal conversion performance. The KHLF matrix with specifically structure of large ion-distance and low photon energy imparts the nanoprobes low quenching effect and excellent photostability (fluorescence decrease <5% upon 120 min illumination of 808 nm continuous laser with a power density of 1 W/cm2 ). The nanoparticles (NPs) were tested for in vitro bioimaging with living mice. The results show the NPs have low biotoxicity, rapid metabolism, normal biodistribution, together with the photothermal imaging performance and a high-contrast fluorescence images (signal-to-background ratio of 14:1). The superior performances of these nanoprobes in vivo imaging of mice proclaim the great potential of this type of probe for high-contrast imaging and photothermal treatment in practical applications.

Abstract
We developed an ultrasensitive luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) aptasensor for Ochratoxin A (OTA) detection, using core/shell upconversion nanoparticles (CS-UCNPs) as luminophores. The OTA aptamer was tagged to CS-UCNPs as energy donor and graphene oxide (GO) acted as energy acceptor. The π-π stacking interaction between the aptamer and GO brought CS-UCNPs and GO in close proximity hence initiated the LRET process resulting in quenching of CS-UCNPs luminescence. A linear calibration was obtained between the luminescence intensity and the logarithm of OTA concentration in the range from 0.001ngmL-1 to 250ngmL-1, with a detection limit of 0.001ngmL-1. The aptasensor showed good specificity towards OTA in beer samples. The ultrahigh sensitivity and pronounced robustness in beer sample matrix suggested promising prospect of the aptasensor inpractical applications.

Abstract
Novel flower-like α-NaYb(Mn)F4:Er(3+)/Tm(3+)@NaYF4 upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) as luminescent nanothermometers have been developed by combining liquid-solid solution hydrothermal strategy with thermal decomposition strategy. Under 980 nm excitation, they exhibit intense upconversion luminescence and temperature-dependent upconversion luminescence over a wide temperature range. The influence of temperature on "band-shape" upconversion luminescence (UCL) spectra and the intensity of emission bands are analyzed and discussed in detail. We further successfully test and verify that intensity ratios REr of (2)H11/2 → (4)I15/2 and (4)S3/2 → (4)I15/2 and RTm of (1)G4 → (3)H5 and (3)H4 → (3)H6 are sensitive to temperature, and the population of active ions follows Boltzmann-type population distribution very well. These luminescent nanothermometers could be applied over a wide temperature range from 123 to 423 K with high sensitivity, which enable them to be excellent candidates for temperature sensors.

Abstract
Rare earth-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have promising potential in the field of food safety because of their unique frequency upconverting capability and high detection sensitivity. Here, we report a rapid and sensitive UCNP-based bacterium-sensing strategy using Escherichia coli. Highly fluorescent and water-soluble UCNPs were fabricated and conjugated with antibodies against E. coli for use as fluorescent probes. The E. coli were successively captured by the fluorescent probes. After the captured cell samples were pelleted, the differences in the fluorescence intensities between sample supernatants and the control were observed to increase linearly with E. coli concentration from 42 to 42 × 10(6) colony-forming units (cfu)/mL (R(2) = 0.9802), resulting in a relatively low limit of detection of 10 cfu/mL. Furthermore, the ability of the bioassay to detect E. coli was also confirmed in adulterated meat and milk samples.
