Abstract
BACKGROUND Biothiols are important for numerous cellular processes, such as resisting oxidative stress and protecting cell health. Their abnormal levels and molecular configurations have been associated with various diseases. So, establishing an effective and reliable method for the specific detection and enantiomeric discrimination of diverse biothiols is highly meaningful. RESULTS We have developed a new NMR and CD probe using 1,4-dinitroimidazole, specifically targeting the thiol group. This probe allows for the specific detection and enantiomeric recognition of biothiols in complex mixtures. We achieved this by identifying the distinguishable 1H NMR signals of 2nd in imidazole-ring of the resulting 4NI-biothiols in the downfield region at 7-8 ppm and newly discovered induced CD signals within 290-430 nm. Using this probe, the limits of detection of Cys, GSH, and Hcy, the recovery rates, and the concentration of GSH extracted from HEK293T cells were determined by measuring the unique downfield 1H NMR signals. Moreover, Cys, GSH, and Hcy can be discriminated simultaneously in complicated samples at a pH range of 2-3.5. Furthermore, this probe can also be utilized to sense chiral thiol-drugs. SIGNIFICANCE This method offers a cost-effective and accurate sensing solution for the specific detection of biothiols in complex mixtures, with stereochemical recognition.

Toxicol Lett 2024; 398:28-37.

Abstract
This work investigated the influence of surface chirality on cellular internalization, cytotoxicity, and tissue distribution of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). D-cysteine and L-cysteine are chiral forms of the amino acid cysteine. These enantiomers exhibit distinct spatial arrangements, with D-cysteine having a different configuration from L-cysteine. This structural dissimilarity can lead to variations in how these forms interact with biological systems, potentially impacting their cytotoxic responses. Four distinct types of AgNPs were synthesized, each possessing a unique surface coating: pristine AgNPs (pAgNPs), L-cysteine coated AgNPs (AgNPs@L-Cys), D-cysteine coated AgNPs (AgNPs@D-Cys), and racemic AgNPs coated with both L-Cys and D-Cys (AgNPs@L/D-Cys). We found chiral-dependent cytotoxicity of AgNPs on J774A.1 cells. Specifically, AgNPs@L-Cys exhibited the highest toxicity, and AgNPs@D-Cys exhibited the lowest toxicity. Meanwhile, the cellular uptake of the AgNPs correlated nicely with their cytotoxicity, with AgNPs@L-Cys being internalized to the greatest extent while AgNPs@D-Cys displays the least internalization. Scavenger receptors and clathrin predominantly mediate the cellular internalization of these AgNPs. Strikingly, the dissimilar cellular internalization and cytotoxicity of AgNPs with different chirality were eliminated upon protein corona coverage. Notably, following intravenous injection in mice, these four types of AgNPs showed similar patterns among various organs due to the inevitable protein adsorption in the bloodstream. These findings underscored the pivotal role of surface chirality in governing the biological interactions and toxicity of AgNPs.

Abstract
The preparation of cobalt-based nanozymes with high oxidase-like activity still needs more efforts. In this paper, we report the synthesis of a CoO/Co-tryptophan-functional graphene quantum dot hybrid (CoO/Co-Try-GQD). Firstly, cobalt ions coordinate with the indole nitrogen on Try-GQD to form a complex, followed by thermal reduction and oxidation. The resulting hybrid presents a three-dimensional network structure, and CoO/Co nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed on the graphene sheet with an average size of 10 ± 0.24 nm. This unique structure improved the oxidase-like activity of the hybrid, enabling it to catalyze the oxidation of colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to rapidly produce deep blue ox-TMB with a strong absorbance at 652 nm (A652). A colorimetric method was developed for the highly sensitive determination of L-cysteine (L-cys) based on the inhibition of the hybrid's oxidase-like activity and low A652 caused by the binding of L-cys with Co atoms on CoO/Co via the Co-S bond. The A652 linearly decreased with increasing L-cys concentration in the range of 0.05-2 μM, and the detection limit was 0.032 μM. Further, the established method has been successfully applied to the determination of L-cys in milk.

Abstract
Recognizing and quantifying enantiomers of chiral molecule is of great importance in chemical, biological and pharmaceutical fields. Herein, we presented one simple-yet-efficient method of sensing tyrosine (Tyr) enantiomers. In this sensing, silver triangular nanoplates (AgTNPs) were used as colorimetric probes. L-Tyr quickly induced the color of AgTNPs solution to change from dark blue to light gray, whereas D-Tyr induced no change of the AgTNPs solution color. The obvious color change enables the naked eye to recognize Tyr enantiomer. The visual method was used to detect the enantiometric excess value of L-Tyr in the whole range (-100 % ∼ 100 %). This chiral sensing can be finished within 5 min using one simple ultraviolet-visible spectrometer or naked eye. Furthermore, the mechanism of this chiral sensing was explored. It was confirmed that this chiral sensing was based on AgTNPs' intrinsic chirality. This chiral sensing is rapid, simple, and low-cost, and has great potential for chiral determination of Tyr.

Abstract
Chiral flavor substances play an important role in the human perception of different tastes. Here, we report a pure covalent-organic framework (COF) membrane nanochannel in combination with a chiral gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) selector for sensing chiral flavor substances. The pure COF membrane with a proper pore size is selected as the nanochannel, while l-cysteine-modified AuNPs (l-Cys-AuNPs) are used as the chiral selector. l-Cys-AuNPs show stronger binding to the S-enantiomer than the R-enantiomer, causing current reduction to different degrees for the R- and S-enantiomer to achieve chiral sensing due to the synergistic effect of the size exclusion of the COF nanochannel and the chiral selectivity of l-Cys-AuNPs. The developed COF membrane nanochannel sensing platform not only allows an easy balance of the permeability and selectivity, which is difficult to achieve in traditional polymer membrane nanochannel sensors, but also exhibits better chiral performance than commercial artificial anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) nanochannel sensors. The developed nanochannel sensor is successfully applied for sensing flavor enantiomers such as limonene, propanediol, methylbutyric acid, and butanol with the enantiomer excess values of 55.2% (propanediol) and 72.4% (limonene) and the low detection limits of 36 (limonene) and 71 (propanediol) ng L-1. This study provides a new idea for the construction of nanochannel platforms based on the COF for sensitive and selective chiral sensing.

Abstract
Ribose is the central molecular unit in ribose nucleic acid (RNA). Ribose is a key molecule in the study of many persistent scientific mysteries, such as the origin of life and the chiral homogeneity of biological molecules. Therefore, the chiral recognition of ribose is of great significance. The traditional method of chiral recognition of ribose is HPLC, which is time-consuming, expensive, and can only be operated in the laboratory. There is no report on optical analytical techniques that can quickly detect the chirality of ribose. In this study, a simple and convenient approach for the chiral recognition of ribose has been developed. β-cyclodextrin(β-CD)-coated Ag NPs aggregate after adding D-ribose, so that D-/L-ribose can be identified using visual colorimetry and/or surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The color change visible to the naked eye can readily distinguish the chirality of ribose, while the SERS method can provide the more sensitive analysis of enantiomeric ribose. The advantages of this method are that it is fast, convenient, low cost, and can be operated outside the laboratory. DFT calculations show that D-ribose and cyclodextrin have the same chirality, forming multiple strong hydrogen bonds between them; thus, D/L-ribose will induce different optical effects.

Abstract
The development of efficient enantioselective detection, analysis, and separation relies significantly on molecular interaction. In the scale of molecular interaction, nanomaterials have a significant influence on the performance of enantioselective recognitions. The use of nanomaterials for enantioselective recognition involved synthesizing new materials and immobilization techniques to produce various surface-modified nanoparticles that are either encapsulated or attached to surfaces, as well as layers and coatings. The combination of surface-modified nanomaterials and chiral selectors can improve enantioselective recognition. This review aims to offer engagement insights into the production and application of surface-modified nanomaterials to achieve sensitive and selective detection, better chiral analysis, and separation of numerous chiral compounds.

Abstract
Chiral recognition of enantiomers has always been a thorny issue since they exhibit the same properties under an achiral environment. Herein, polydopamine-functionalized magnetic particles (MP@PDA) were synthesized to immobilize the genetically engineered bacterium Escherichia coli DH5α (MP@PDA-E. coli). L-tryptophan (Trp) instead of D-Trp can be stereo-specifically degraded by tryptophanase in E. coli. The degradation product indole reacts with 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde to generate a rose-red adduct. Thus, MP@PDA-E. coli was employed to fabricate a chiral colorimetric method for chiral recognition and determination of L-Trp. The method averts the purification of tryptophanase. More importantly, tryptophanase demonstrates excellent enantioselective ability for L-Trp. The method can not only quantitatively detect L-Trp but also realize the measurement of the enantiomer percentage in the enantiomeric mixture. The feasibility was verified by detecting L-Trp in millet samples from different origins. Furthermore, a portable device was fabricated to make the method more convenient.

Abstract
Enantiomers show different behaviors in interaction with the chiral environment. Due to their identical chemical structure and their wide application in various industries, such as agriculture, medicine, pesticide, food, and so forth, their separation is of great importance. Today, the term "nano" is frequently encountered in all fields. Technology and measuring devices are moving towards miniaturization, and the usage of nanomaterials in all sectors is expanding substantially. Given that scientists have recently attempted to apply miniaturized techniques known as nano-liquid chromatography/capillary-liquid chromatography, which were originally accomplished in 1988, as well as the widespread usage of nanomaterials for chiral resolution (back in 1989), this comprehensive study was developed. Searching the terms "nano" and "enantiomer separation" on scientific websites such as Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science yields articles that either use miniaturized instruments or apply nanomaterials as chiral selectors with a variety of chemical and electrochemical detection techniques, which are discussed in this article.

Abstract
The reported optical resolution method was designed to support high-throughput enantioseparation of molecular building blocks obtained by automated small-scale synthetic methods. Lipophilic esters of common resolving agents were prepared and used as liquid membranes on the indifferent polymer surface of a microtiter assay. Chiral model compounds were enriched in one of the enantiomers starting from the aqueous solutions of their racemic mixture. Enantiodiscrimination was provided by forming diastereomeric coordination complexes of lipophilic enantiopure esters with the enantiomers of the chiral building blocks inside the liquid membranes. This enantiomeric recognition resulted in a greater distribution ratio of the preferred isomer in the membrane phase, thus the process enables a simultaneous enantioenrichment of the solutions outside the membrane. This paper reports a novel microplate-integrated stereoselective membrane enrichment technique satisfying the need for automatable enantioseparation on a subpreparative scale.

Abstract
Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) has been widely used for various sensing applications, including chirality detection due to the high sensitivity to nanogram or picogram mass changes, fast response, real-time detection, easy operation, suitability in different media, and low experimental cost. The sensing performance of QCM is dependent on the surface design of the recognition layers. Various strategies have been employed for studying the relationship between the structural features and the specific detection of chiral isomers. This review provides an overview of the construction of chiral sensing layers by various nanostructures and materials in the QCM system, which include organic molecules, supermolecular assemblies, inorganic nanostructures, and metal surfaces. The sensing mechanisms based on these surface nanostructures and the related potentials for chiral detection by the QCM system are also summarized.

Abstract
Advancements in nanoscience and nanotechnology have opened new pathways to fabricate novel nanostructures with interesting properties that would be used for different applications. In this respect, nanostructures comprising chirality are one of the most rapidly developing research fields encompassing chemistry, physics and biology. Chirality, also known as mirror asymmetry, describes the geometrical property of an object that is not superimposable on its mirror image. This characteristic plays a crucial role because these identical forms of chiral species in pharmaceuticals or food additives may exhibit different effects on living organisms. Therefore, chiral analysis is an important field of modern chemical analysis in health-related industries that are reliant on the production of enantiomeric compounds involving pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
In this communication, we report the comparative and selective interaction of amino acid d-cysteine (d-Cys) with citrate caped gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) in the presence of a fluorescent dye, rhodamine B (RhB), in aqueous solution. Au NPs of size 27.5 nm could almost fully quench the steady-state fluorescence emission of RhB at their optimum concentrations in the mixed solution. The interactions of d-Cys, l-Cys, all other relevant d- and l-amino acids, neurotransmitters, and other relevant biological compounds with the Au NPs/RhB mixed solution have been explored by monitoring the fluorescence recovery efficiencies from the almost fully quenched state of RhB fluorescence via a simple steady-state spectrofluorometric method. The higher fluorescence recovery for the interaction of d-Cys with the Au NPs/RhB mixed system is accompanied by a distinct color change (red-wine to bluish-black) of the assay medium after the reaction compared to that of all other interfering compounds considered in this work. The sensitivity of this fluorometric response lies in a broad linear range of concentrations of d-Cys and the limit of detection (LOD) is found to be 4.2 nM, which is low compared to many other methods available in the literature. The different degrees of interaction of d-Cys and l-Cys with the Au NPs/RhB mixed sample have been further explored by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The selective interaction of d-Cys with the proposed Au NPs/RhB mixed system is also found to be correlated with interparticle cross-linking and aggregations of nanoparticles by the analysis of ζ potential and dynamic light scattering (DLS) study, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), UV-vis absorption spectroscopy etc. The proposed interaction mechanism is further studied with a normal human urine sample to elucidate that the optimized combination of Au NPs and RhB may be realized as an efficient platform for detection of the amino acid d-Cys in a real biosample via a simple fluorometric approach.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) plays significant roles in regulating intracellular processes and is an important biomarker connected to several diseases. In this work, one facile and sensitive sensing platform based on CQD-silver nanocomposites (CQD-silver NPs) for colorimetric detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was introduced. ALP triggers the removal of the phosphate group of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AA2P), which is then transformed into ascorbic acid (AA). The as-obtained AA can easily cause significant aggregation of monodispersed NPs and cause the system color to turn from bright yellow to gray. Based on the color change of the ratio of 490 nm/630 nm, ALP was sensitively and selectively detected. Under the optimum, the established method showed linearity for ALP in the range of 0.1-50 U L-1 and the detection limit was low at 0.035 U L-1, and it was subjected to ALP inhibitor screening from goji berry extract. These results indicated that the colorimetric system can be used as a simple tool for visual and fast evaluation of ALP activity as well as providing an alternative to screen ALP inhibitors.

Abstract
Introduction of chirality in supramolecular gels has allowed the effective translation and amplification of molecular chirality. Upon integrating the stimuli-responsive nature of these gels with supramolecular chirality, a new platform for the discrimination of the enantiomeric guests through naked eye can be developed. Over the past decade, several groups have reported the development of chiral supramolecular gels for enantioselective recognition through gel formation or collapse. However, to the best of our knowledge, we are yet to come across a review highlighting the utilization of chiral supramolecular gels for macroscopic discrimination of enantiomers. In this article, we have articulated the chiral gelators developed to date for the recognition of different enantiomeric analytes focusing on their mode of recognition with an in-depth analysis of the mechanism of interactions assisting the recognition process.

Abstract
A chromophoric bifunctional probe design that allows selective chiroptical sensing of cysteine in aqueous solution is introduced. The common need for chiral HPLC separation is eliminated which expedites and simplifies the sample analysis while reducing solvent waste. Screening of the reaction between six phenacyl bromides and the enantiomers of cysteine showed that cyclization to an unsaturated thiomorpholine scaffold coincides with characteristic UV and CD effects, in particular when the reagent carries a proximate auxochromic nitro group. The UV changes and CD inductions were successfully used for determination of the absolute configuration, enantiomeric composition and total concentration of 18 test samples. This assay is highly selective for free cysteine while other amino acids, cysteine derived small peptides and biothiols do not interfere with the chiroptical signal generation.

Abstract
Amino acids play a very important role in the fields of pharmacy and biochemistry, and the identification of amino acid enantiomers has become a research hotspot. In this study, chiral nanomaterials ZnFe2O4-L-Cys (Cys = cysteine) were prepared by the mechanical stirring method and characterizad by different kinds of techniques. The effect of pH and Cu2+ on the recognition of tryptophan by chiral nanomaterials ZnFe2O4-L-Cys was further explored by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The experimental results show that when the pH of the recognition environment is neutral, ZnFe2O4-L-Cys can be used as chiral selectors for tryptophan enantiomers in the presence of Cu2+ and the absorbance of L-Trp is always stronger than D-Trp within a certain concentration range, which provides a novel and convenient way for the chiral recognition of tryptophan enantiomers.

Abstract
Simple and sensitive detection of telomerase activity is of vital importance for both early diagnosis and therapy of malignant tumors. Inspired by DNA-biobarcode amplification reported by Chad A. Mirkin, we developed a facile DNA-biobarcode-like SERS-based copper-mediated signal amplification strategy for sensitive detection of telomerase activity. In this strategy, a duplex DNA constructed by hybridization of a copper oxide nanoparticle (CuO NP)-labeled reporting sequence (RS) with the telomerase primer sequence (TS) is ingeniously designed, and anchored on the magnetic bead (MB) to build the CuO NPs-encoded magnetic bead (MB-CuO NPs) detection probe. Upon selective sensing of telomerase, telomerase elongation reaction and structure change of TS products make the CuO NP-RS displace and separate from MB. The separated CuO NPs are dissolved into a mass of Cu2+, which prompt monodisperse dopamine-functionalized AgNPs (D-AgNPs) signal probe into aggregation, resulting in color changes and significantly enhancing of SERS signal. The SERS signal increases with the increase of Cu2+, which is directly proportional to the telomerase. Benefiting from the transformation of CuO NP to Cu2+ with a high amplification effect, this strategy could realize the telomerase activity measurement down to 3 HeLa cells and a dynamic range of 10-10000 cells. It shows a significant improvement of sensitivity without need for other enzymes and elaborate design, which escapes from the complicated manipulations and design in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA amplification techniques. Moreover, with this strategy, telomerase activities of different cell lines and telomerase inhibitors screening were successfully performed. Significantly, it can also be utilized for visual detection of telomerase, which validates the potential on-site application and its application as point-of-care testing (POCT) for efficient monitoring. Given the high-performance for telomerase analysis, the strategy has a promising application in biological detection and clinical diagnosis, as well as point-of-care tests.

Abstract
Ag+-mediated base pairing is valuable for synthesising DNA-based silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and nanoclusters (AgNCs). Recently, we reported the formation of a [Ag(cytidine)2]+ complex in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which facilitated the evaluation of the effect of cytosine-Ag+-cytosine (C-Ag+-C) base pairing on the degree of AgNP aggregation in solution. As an aprotic solvent, DMSO was expected to dissolve the [Ag(cytidine)2]+ complex, and powerful reducing agents, such as organic electron donors. In this study, the chemical reduction of a cytidine/Ag+ system using a powerful reducing agent tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) was investigated. 1H/13C/15N NMR spectroscopic evidence was obtained to identify the iminium dication (TDAE2+), which is an oxidised form of TDAE. The results were compared with those obtained using another organic electron donor, tetrathiafulvalene (TTF), which exhibits a relatively lower reduction activity than TDAE. AgNPs prepared via redox reaction between [Ag(cytidine)2]+ and organic electron donors (TDAE and TTF) were characterised using UV-Vis spectroscopy and nanoparticle tracking analysis. It was found that the formation of C-Ag+-C base pairing inhibited the aggregation of AgNPs in solution. In addition, in the presence of cytidine, the total concentration of the AgNP solution was affected by the reduction activity of the reducing agent.

Abstract
The rapid development of chiral inorganic nanostructures has greatly expanded from intrinsically chiral nanoparticles to more sophisticated assemblies made by organics, metals, semiconductors, and their hybrids. Among them, lots of studies concerning on hybrid complex of chiral molecules with achiral nanoparticles (NPs) and superstructures with chiral configurations were accordingly conducted due to the great advances such as highly enhanced biocompatibility with low cytotoxicity and enhanced penetration and retention capability, programmable surface functionality with engineerable building blocks, and more importantly tunable chirality in a controlled manner, leading to revolutionary designs of new biomaterials for synergistic cancer therapy, control of enantiomeric enzymatic reactions, integration of metabolism and pathology via bio-to nano or structural chirality. Herein, in this review our objective is to emphasize current research state and clinical applications of chiral nanomaterials in biological systems with special attentions to chiral metal- or semiconductor-based nanostructures in terms of the basic synthesis, related circular dichroism effects at optical frequencies, mechanisms of induced optical chirality and their performances in biomedical applications such as phototherapy, bio-imaging, neurodegenerative diseases, gene editing, cellular activity and sensing of biomarkers so as to provide insights into this fascinating field for peer researchers.

Abstract
Enantioselective identification of chiral molecules is important for biomedical and pharmaceutical research. However, owing to identical molecular formulas and chemical properties of enantiomers, signal transduction and amplification are still the two major challenges in chiral sensing. In this study, we developed an enantioselective membrane by integrating homochiral metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with nanochannels for the sensitive identification and quantification of chiral compounds. The membrane was designed using a TiO2 nanochannel membrane (TiNM) as the metal ion precursor of MOFs (using MIL-125(Ti)) and incorporating l-glutamine (l-Glu) into the framework of MIL-125(Ti). Using 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) as the model analyte, the as-prepared homochiral l-Glu/MIL-125(Ti)/TiNM exhibits a remarkable chiral recognition to d-DOPA than l-DOPA. More importantly, benefiting from the highly enlarged surface area and confinement effect provided by the MOFs-in-nanochannel architecture, the discrimination for chiral recognition is largely amplified through the chelation interaction of Fenton-like activity of Fe3+ onto DOPA. Using 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) as the substrate, the positively charged ABTS•+ product via Fenton-like reaction induces significant ionic transport changes in nanochannels, which in turn provides information about chiral recognition. This innovative signal amplification strategy on homochiral nanochannels might pave a new way for sensitive monitoring and chiral recognition.

Abstract
l-3,4-Dihydroxy-phenylalanine (l-DOPA) is the most effective drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, which plays a very important role in clinical and neurochemistry. However, how to achieve high-sensitivity recognition of l-DOPA still faces challenges. Here, a facile strategy is presented to construct nitrogen-doped chiral CuO/CoO nanofibers (N-CuO/CoO NFs) with nanozyme activity and electrochemiluminescence property, in which CuO/CoO NFs are used as the catalytic activity center and chiral cysteine (Cys) is used as the inducer of chiral recognition, for enantioselective catalysis and sensitive recognition of DOPA enantiomers. Notably, N doping not only enhances the enzyme-mimic activity of CuO/CoO NFs but also amplifies their electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signals in the presence of luminol. More importantly, in the presence of DOPA enantiomers, the d-cysteine (d-Cys)-modified N-CuO/CoO NFs exhibit different ECL performances; thus, d-Cys@N-CuO/CoO NFs could selectively distinguish and sensitively detect l-DOPA through ECL signals, and the detection limit is 0.29 nM for l-DOPA. In addition, it also showed good sensing performance for the determination of l-DOPA in fetal bovine serum. This is the first report on the detection of DOPA enantiomers based on an enhanced ECL strategy, providing a robust pathway for chiral discrimination and detection of chiral molecules.

[PMID: 33938037 DOI: 10.1002/chir.23314] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2020] [Revised: 03/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
A composite chiral interface (BSA-MB-MWCNTs) was prepared from bovine serum albumin (BSA), methylene blue (MB), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) for chiral recognition of amine enantiomers (1S, 2S)-N,N'-dimethyl-1,2-cyclohexanediamine and (1R, 2R)-N,N'-dimethyl-1,2-cyclohexanediamine. The BSA-based composite was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The electrochemical responses towards the two enantiomers were analyzed via cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical AC impedance method (EIS), and differential-pulse voltammetry (DPV). The experimental results showed that the combination of MWCNTs and BSA could effectively improve the overall identification efficiency, and the peak current displayed by the S-enantiomer is larger, indicating that the prepared chiral surface has stronger interaction with the R-enantiomer. Under optimized condition, the current value of the oxidation peak of the chiral modified electrode showed a good linear relationship towards the amine concentration in the range of 5.0 × 10-3 to 5.0 × 10-5 mmol·L-1 . The proposed electrochemical chiral interface is easy to handle and provides a promising electrochemical sensing platform that can be used to identify chiral amine enantiomers.

Abstract
The redox properties of metallo-base pairs remain to be elucidated. Herein, we report the detailed 1H/13C/109Ag NMR spectroscopic and cyclic voltammetric characterisation of the [Ag(cytidine)2]+ complex as isolated cytosine-Ag+-cytosine (C-Ag+-C) base pairs. We also performed comparative studies between cytidine/Ag+ and other nucleoside/Ag+ systems by using cyclic voltammetry measurements. In addition, to evaluate the effect of [Ag(cytidine)2]+ formation on the chemical reduction of Ag+ to Ag, we utilised the redox reaction between Ag+ and tetrathiafulvalene (TTF). We found that Ag+-mediated base pairing lowers the redox potential of the Ag+/Ag couple. In addition, C-Ag+-C base pairing makes it more difficult to reduce captured Ag+ ions than in other nucleoside/Ag+ systems. Remarkably, the cytidine/Ag+ system can be utilised to control the redox potential of the Ag+/Ag couple in DMSO. This feature of the cytidine/Ag+ system may be exploited for Ag nanoparticle synthesis by using the redox reaction between Ag+ and TTF.

Abstract
Chiral molecules are ubiquitous in nature; many important synthetic chemicals and drugs are chiral. Detecting chiral molecules and separating the enantiomers is difficult because their physiochemical properties can be very similar. Here we review the optical approaches that are emerging for detecting and manipulating chiral molecules and chiral nanostructures. Our review focuses on the methods that have used plasmonics to enhance the chiroptical response. We also review the fabrication and assembly of (dynamic) chiral plasmonic nanosystems in this context.

Abstract
Chiral molecules in relation to particular biological roles are stereoselective. Enantiomers differ significantly in their biochemical responses in biological environment. Despite the current advancement in drug discovery and pharmaceutical biotechnology, the chiral separation of some racemic mixtures continues to be one of the greatest challenges, because the available techniques are too costly and time consuming for the assessment of therapeutic drugs in the early stages of development worldwide. Various nanoparticles became one of the most investigated and explored nanotechnology-derived nanostructures especially in chirality where several studies are reported to improve enantiomeric separation of different racemic mixtures. The production of surface-modified nanoparticles has contributed to these limitations in terms of sensitivity, accuracy, and enantioselectivity that can be optimized and therefore makes these surface-modified nanoparticles convenient for enantiomeric identification and separation.

Abstract
The chirality of biomolecules is vital importance in biosensing and biomedicine. However, most biomolecules only have a chiral response in the ultraviolet region, and the corresponding chiral signal is weak. In recent years, inorganic nanomaterials can adjust chiral light signals to the visible and near-infrared regions and enhance optical signals due to their high polarizability and adjustable morphology-dependent optical properties. Nonetheless, inorganic nanomaterials usually lack specificity to identify targets, and have strong toxicity when applied in organisms. The combination of chiral biomolecules and inorganic nanomaterials offers a way to solve these problems. Because chiral biomolecules, such as DNA, amino acids, and peptides, have programmability, specific recognition, excellent biocompatibility, and strong binding force to inorganic nanomaterials. Biomolecule-mediated chiral nanostructures show specific recognition of targets, extremely low biological toxicity and adjustable optical activity by regulating, assembling and inducing inorganic nanomaterials. Therefore, biomolecule-mediated chiral nanostructures have received widespread attention, including chiral biosensing, enantiomers recognition and separation, biological diagnosis and treatment, chiral catalysis, and circular polarization of chiral metamaterials. This review mainly introduces the three chiral mechanisms of biomolecule-mediated chiral nanostructures, lists some important applications at present, and discusses the development prospects of biomolecule-mediated chiral nanostructures.

Abstract
Homochiral metal-organic frameworks (HMOFs) have garnered considerable attention due to their extrachiral properties and broad application for chiral recognition. However, assembling a pair of high-quality chiral MOFs for sensing enantiomers precisely is a formidable challenge because of the complicated chiral environment and uncontrollable coordinated conditions. Herein, one pair of homochiral UiO-66 analogues, S-1 (l-AP@UiO-66-(COOH)2) and R-1 (d-AP@UiO-66-(COOH)2), are reported for chiral recognition. They were fabricated via a condensation reaction between the carboxyl groups of UiO-66-(COOH)2 and amino groups of l/d-amino propanol (l/d-AP). These novel fluorescent probes exhibited highly enantioselective fluorescence enhancement towards l/d-phenylalaninol (l/d-PA). For example, when S-1 and R-1 were treated with l-PA or d-PA, they displayed different fluorescence responses: the enantiomeric fluorescence enhancement ratio (ef) was 2.51 and 0.41 for S-1 and R-1, respectively. Hence, a visible difference in fluorescence enhancement for l-PA and d-PA and excellent enantioselective behavior between S-1 and l-PA (or R-1 and d-PA) was displayed. Measurements of fluorescence lifetime, powder X-ray diffraction, molecular-dynamic simulations and Benesi-Hildebrand plots were employed to determine the observed high enantioselectivity for l/d-PA. In brief, we found that two post-modified HMOFs, S-1 and R-1, were outstanding enantioselective sensors for detecting l-PA and d-PA. They had a prominent difference in ef and remarkable enantioselectivity factor α and ΔΔG based on steric hindrance and stereochemical difference.

Abstract
In this work, we prepared gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by employing gluconic acid (GlcA) as reducing-cum-stabilizing agent. The proposed GlcA-AuNPs successfully worked as a colorimetric sensor for visual chiral recognition of aromatic amino acid enantiomers, namely tyrosine (D/L-Tyr), phenylalanine (D/L-Phe), and tryptophan (D/L-Trp). After adding L-types to GlcA-AuNPs solution, the color of the mixture changed from red to purple (or gray), while no obvious color change occurred on the addition of D-types. The effect can be detected by naked eyes. The particles have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, zeta potential, the dynamic light scattering analysis as well as UV-Vis spectroscopy. This assay can be used to determine the enantiomeric excess of L-Trp in the range from 0 to + 100%. The method has advantages in simplicity, sensitivity, fast response, and low cost.

Abstract
In this work, acid and matrix-tolerant multifunctionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with an integrated chiral selector towards tyrosine (Tyr) and polyethylenglycol (PEG) chains were developed for visual chiral discrimination of Tyr in biological samples under acid conditions. In brief, AuNPs multifunctionalized with N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NALC) and PEG (PEG/NALC-AuNPs) were prepared via a simple strategy. In the presence of l-Tyr, the color of PEG/NALC-AuNP solution changed from red to gray, while no obvious color change was observed with the introduction of d-Tyr, which indicated that the introduction of PEG onto the surface of AuNPs has no effect on the chiral recognition between l-Tyr and NALC. A computer-aided molecular model was used to clarify the chiral recognition mechanism between NALC and Tyr enantiomers and to further guide the optimization of sensitivity. The resultant PEG/NALC-AuNP sensor presented a significantly improved stability under acid and alkali conditions compared with conventional NALC-AuNPs, resulting in a wider dynamic range (500 nM-100 μM) and a 50 times reduced detection limit by simply adjusting the pH of the sensor system under acid conditions (pH 2-2.5). More importantly, the PEG/NALC-AuNPs can realize the visual chiral discrimination of Tyr enantiomers in biological samples due to their significantly improved long-term stability and reduced interaction towards non-target species.

Abstract
The development of artificial chiral architectures, especially chiral inorganic nanostructures, has greatly promoted research into chirality in nanoscience. The nanoscale chirality of artificial chiral nanostructures offers many new application opportunities, including chiral catalysis, asymmetric synthesis, chiral biosensing, and others that may not be allowed by natural chiral molecules. Herein, the progress achieved during the past decade in chirality-associated biological applications (biosensing, biolabeling, and bioimaging) combined with individual chiral nanostructures (such as chiral semiconductor nanoparticles and chiral metal nanoparticles) or chiral assemblies is discussed.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), built from organic linkers and metal ions/clusters, have emerged as highly promising materials for wide applications. Combining highly porous crystalline MOFs with the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique can achieve unprecedented advantages of high selectivity, high sensitivity, and expedience in analysis and detection. In this critical review, the aim is to present a comprehensive review of recent advances in understanding of the roles of MOFs in MOF-SERS systems, particularly their structure-to-property correlation. Key examples are selected from representative literature to illustrate critical concepts and the MOF-based property-dependent applications are particularly emphasized. Finally, the barriers, future trends, and prospects for further advances in MOF-SERS platforms are also discussed.

Abstract
Abstract
Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) (10−15 nm in size) were prepared and deposited on the surfaces of silica particles functionalized using 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane as the seeds under mild conditions. Then, Au seeds grew further and formed nanosheets by the method of gold chloride hydrate reduction. 3, 5-dimethylphenyl isocyanate derivative of cellulose as chiral selector was coated on the surfaces of SiO2/Au. The obtained spheres possessed a sandwich structure in which silica bead, the packed Au NPs monolayer and cellulose derivative were the core, the interlayer and the shell, respectively. The resultant packing material was evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as chiral stationary phase (CSP). The separations of nine pairs of enantiomers were achieved in the normal-phase liquid chromatography mode. The results showed that the new CSP has sufficient interaction with the analytes due to the existence of AuNPs on silica surfaces compared with coated cellulose-silica column.

Abstract
Here, ionized chiral carbon dots, (S,S)-C-dots-1 (λex = 430 nm, λem = 480 nm), were synthesized via a facile route with relatively high quantum yield (∼24.4%) and used as a fluorescent chiral sensor. One of the advantages of the synthetic process is that it avoids the loss of the chiral center. That is, the chiral bromo compound can directly form an ionic pair with the pyridyl group, which is derived from the amine precursor in the first step. Furthermore, (S,S)-C-dots-1 shows clear discrimination toward different configurations of nonaromatic amino alcohols in the presence of Cu(ii). When the (R)-isomer is added to a solution of (S,S)-C-dots-1 + Cu(ii), it shows much higher fluorescent intensity than the (S)-isomer. The values of IR/IS are 2.9 and 2.3 for 2-aminobutan-1-ol and 2-aminopropan-1-ol, respectively. In summary, we believe that this work can expand the synthetic routes and potential applications of functional carbon dots in the field of enantioselective sensing.

Abstract
Macrocyclic compounds have attracted tremendous attention for their superior
performance in supramolecular recognition, catalysis, and host-guest interaction. With
these admirable properties, macrocyclic compounds were used as modifiers for enhancing
the sensitivity and selectivity of electrodes and optical sensors. The classic macrocyclic
compounds, including crown ethers, cyclodextrins, calixarenes, cucurbiturils, and pillararenes,
were employed as receptors for electrochemical and optical sensors to develop
new analytical methods with the wilder detection range, lower detection limit, and better
tolerance of interference. Macrocyclic molecules functionalized with nanomaterials, the
small entities with dimensions in the nanoscale, realized the versatility and diversification
of the nano-hybrid materials, which improved the capabilities of recognition and response
with the combining characteristics of two components. Herein, this review focused on the development in the
research field of hybridization of organic macrocycles with nanoparticles and their applications for chemosensors,
aiming at both existing researchers in the field and who would like to enter into the research.

Abstract
A facile one-pot synthetic method for preparing gold nanoparticles by employing sugammadex (SUG), a carboxylic acid functionalized γ-cyclodextrin derivative, as reducing-cum-stabilizing agent herein was reported for the first time. The SUG protected gold nanoparticles (SUG-AuNPs) can work as a colorimetric sensor for visual chiral recognition of α-amino acids enantiomers, especially for lysine (Lys) and asparagine (Asn) enantiomers. The chiral recognition assay was successfully applied to determining the enantiometric excess of L-Lys and L-Asn ranging from -100 % to 100 % respectively. Moreover, the prepared SUG-AuNPs was found to exhibit efficient catalytic activity towards the reduction of toxic 4-nitrophenol by NaBH4 and the efficiency of the system was further demonstrated through the reduction of other typical nitroaromatics under mild condition. The as-synthesized SUG-AuNPs shows good performance for both chiral sensing and reduction activity and thus may facilitate the practical application in the area of both chiral discrimination and catalysis.

Abstract
Au nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by UV light irradiation of a mixed solution of HAuCl4 and sodium deoxycholate (NaDC) under alkaline condition, in which NaDC served as both reducing agent and capping agent. The reaction was monitored by circular dichroism (CD) spectra, and it was found that the formed gold NPs could catalyze the oxidation of NaDC. A CD signal at ~283 nm in the UV region was observed for the oxidation product of NaDC. The intensity of the CD signal of the oxidation product was enhanced gradually with the reaction time. Electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectra and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were carried out to determine the chemical composition of the oxidation product, revealing that NaDC was selectively oxidized to sodium 3-keto-12-hydroxy-cholanate (3-KHC). The chiral discrimination abilities of the micelles of NaDC and its oxidation product, 3-KHC, were investigated by using chiral model molecules R,S-1,1'-Binaphthyl-2,2'-diyl hydrogenphosphate (R,S-BNDHP). Compared with NaDC, the micelles of 3-KHC displayed higher binding ability to the chiral model molecules. In addition, the difference in binding affinity of 3-KHC micelles towards R,S-isomer was observed, and S-isomer was shown to preferentially bind to the micelles.

Abstract
Chiral molecules are stereoselective with regard to specific biological functions. Enantiomers differ considerably in their physiological reactions with the human body. Safeguarding the quality and safety of drugs requires an efficient analytical platform by which to selectively probe chiral compounds to ensure the extraction of single enantiomers. Asymmetric synthesis is a mature approach to the production of single enantiomers; however, it is poorly suited to mass production and allows for only specific enantioselective reactions. Furthermore, it is too expensive and time-consuming for the evaluation of therapeutic drugs in the early stages of development. These limitations have prompted the development of surface-modified nanoparticles using amino acids, chiral organic ligands, or functional groups as chiral selectors applicable to a racemic mixture of chiral molecules. The fact that these combinations can be optimized in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and enantioselectivity makes them ideal for enantiomeric recognition and separation. In chiral resolution, molecules bond selectively to particle surfaces according to homochiral interactions, whereupon an enantiopure compound is extracted from the solution through a simple filtration process. In this review article, we discuss the fabrication of chiral nanoparticles and look at the ways their distinctive surface properties have been adopted in enantiomeric recognition and separation.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed thriving progress of flexible and portable electronics, with very high demand for cost-effective and tailor-made multifunctional devices. Here, we report on an ingenious origami hierarchical sensor array (OHSA) written with a conductive ink. Thanks to origami as a controllable hierarchical framework for loading ink material, we have demonstrated that OHSA possesses unique time-space-resolved, high-discriminative pattern recognition (TSR-HDPR) features, qualifying it as a smart sensing device for simultaneous sensing and distinguishing of complex physical and chemical stimuli, including temperature, relative humidity, light and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Of special importance, OSHA has shown very high sensitivity in differentiating between structural isomers and chiral enantiomers of VOCs – opening a door for wide variety of unique opportunities in several length scales. Developing portable, disposable and cost-effective electronics for multifunctional sensing is desirable. Here, the authors present origami-based hierarchical electronics with time-space-resolved high-discriminative pattern recognition (TSR-HDPR) features for multifunctional detection of complex physical and chemical stimuli.
