Abstract
Pesticide residues in agricultural products pose a significant threat to human health. Herein, a sensitive fluorescence method employing upconversion nanoparticles was developed for detecting organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) based on the principle of enzyme inhibition and copper-triggered o-phenylenediamine (OPD) oxidation. Copper ions (Cu2+) oxidized the colorless OPD to a yellow 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD). The yellow solution oxOPD quenched the fluorescence of upconversion nanoparticles due to the fluorescence resonance energy transfer. The high affinity of Cu2+ for thiocholine reduced the level of oxOPD, resulting in almost no fluorescence quenching. The addition of dimethoate led to the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity and thus prevented the formation of thiocholine. Subsequently, Cu2+ oxidized OPD to form oxOPD, which attenuated the fluorescence signal of the system. The detection system has a good linear range of 0.01 ng/mL to 50 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.008 ng/mL, providing promising applications for rapid detection of dimethoate.

Evaluation of Iron Chlorin e6 disappearance and hydrolysis in soil and garlic using salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography and ultraviolet-visible detection. Food Chem 2024; 447:138960. [PMID: 38461727 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138960] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024]
Abstract
Iron Chlorin e6 (ICE6), a star plant growth regulator (PGR) with independent intellectual property rights in China, has demonstrated its efficacy through numerous field experiments. We innovatively employed salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) with HPLC-UV/Vis to detect ICE6 residues in water, soil, garlic seeds, and sprouts. Using methanol and a C18 column with acetonitrile: 0.1% phosphoric acid mobile phase (55:45, v:v), we achieved a low LOQ of 0.43 to 0.77 μg kg-1. Calibration curves showed strong linearity (R2 > 0.992) within 0.01 to 5.00 mg kg-1. Inter-day and intra-day recoveries (0.05 to 0.50 mg kg-1) demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy (recoveries: 75.36% to 107.86%; RSD: 1.03% to 8.78%). Additionally, density functional theory (DFT) analysis aligned UV/Vis spectra and indicated ICE6's first-order degradation (2.03 to 4.94 days) under various environmental conditions, mainly driven by abiotic degradation. This study enhances understanding of ICE6's environmental behavior, aids in risk assessment, and guides responsible use in agroecosystems.

Abstract
Fenton chemistry has aroused widespread concern due to its application in the green oxidation and mineralization of organic wastes. Inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate ions (PPi) and provides a thermodynamic driving force for many biosynthetic reactions. Fluoride (F-) is widely applied to fight against tooth decay and reduce cavities. The electrochemical determination of PPase activity and F- was realized based on Fenton chemistry in this work. Glassy carbon electrode modified with poly (azure A) and acetylene black (GCE/PAA-AB) was fabricated. Hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) that were generated from a Cu2+-catalyzed Fenton-type reaction could oxidize PAA in the near-neutral medium, leading to a great increase of the cathodic peak current (Ipc). A coordination reaction between PPi and Cu2+ exerted a negative effect on Fenton reaction and hindered the Ipc enhancement. Cu2+-PPi complex was decomposed due to the hydrolysis of PPi induced by PPase, which caused the reappearance of the notably increased current response. F- could effectively inhibit PPase activity. As a result, the stable Cu2+-PPi complex remained and the high Ipc suffered from the decline again. The Ipc difference was used for the highly sensitive determination of PPase activity in the content range of 0.001-20 mU mL-1 with a detection of limit (LOD) at 0.6 μU mL-1 and that of F- in the concentration range of 0.01-100 μM with a LOD at 7 nM. The proposed PPase and F- sensor displayed a good selectivity, stability and reproducibility, and a high accuracy.

A ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetry dual-signal sensing strategy based on o-phenylenediamine and AuNCs for determination of Cu 2+ and glyphosate. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:423.

Abstract
A ratiometric fluorescence sensing strategy has been developed for the determination of Cu2+ and glyphosate with high sensitivity and specificity based on OPD (o-phenylenediamine) and glutathione-stabilized gold nanoclusters (GSH-AuNCs). Water-soluble 1.75-nm size GSH-AuNCs with strong red fluorescence and maximum emission wavelength at 682 nm were synthesized using GSH as the template. OPD was oxidized by Cu2+, which produced the bright yellow fluorescence oxidation product 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) with a maximum fluorescence emission peak at 570 nm. When glyphosate existed in the system, the chelation between glyphosate and Cu2+ hindered the formation of DAP and reduced the fluorescence intensity of the system at the wavelength of 570 nm. Meanwhile, the fluorescence intensity at the wavelength of 682 nm remained basically stable. It exhibited a good linear relationship towards Cu2+ and glyphosate in water in the range 1.0-10 µM and 0.050-3.0 µg/mL with a detection limit of 0.547 µM and 0.0028 µg/mL, respectively. The method was also used for the semi-quantitative determination of Cu2+ and glyphosate in water by fluorescence color changes visually detected by the naked eyes in the range 1.0-10 µM and 0.30-3.0 µg/mL, respectively. The sensing strategy showed higher sensitivity, more obvious color changes, and better disturbance performance, satisfying with the detection demands of Cu2+ and glyphosate in environmental water samples. The study provides a reliable detection strategy in the environment safety fields.

Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1305:342584. [PMID: 38677840 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2023] [Revised: 03/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) is key enzyme playing a key role in biochemical transformations such as biosynthesis of DNA and RNA, bone formation, metabolic pathways associated with lipid, carbohydrate and phosphorous. It has been reported that lung adenocarcinomas, colorectal cancer, and hyperthyroidism disorders can result from abnormal level of PPase. Therefore, it is of notable significance to develop simple and effective real time assay for PPase enzyme activity monitoring for screening of many metabolic pathways as well as for early disease diagnosis. RESULT The fluorometric detection of PPase enzyme in near infrared region-1 (NIR-1) has been carried out using bimetallic nanoclusters (LA@AuAg NCs). The developed sensing strategy was based on quenching of fluorescence intensity of LA@AuAg NCs upon interaction with copper (Cu2+) ions. The off state of LA@AuAg_Cu2+ ensemble was turned on upon addition of pyrophosphate anion (PPi) due to strong binding interaction between PPi and Cu2+. The catalytic conversion of PPi into phosphate anion (Pi) in the presence of PPase led to liberation of Cu2+ ions, and again quenched off state was retrieved due to interaction of free Cu2+ with LA@AuAg NCs. The ultrasensitive detection of PPase was observed in the linear range of 0.06-250 mU/mL with LOD as 0.0025 mU/mL. The designed scheme showed good selectivity towards PPase enzyme in comparison to other bio-substrates, along with good percentage recovery for PPase detection in real human serum samples. SIGNIFICANCE The developed NIR based assay is ultrasensitive, highly selective and robust for PPase enzyme and can be safely employed for other enzymes detection. This highly sensitive nature of biosensor was result of involvement of fluorescence-based technique and synergistic effect of dual metal in NIR based bimetallic NCs. Moreover, owing to the emission in NIR domain, in future, these nanoclusters can be safely employed for many biomedical applications for In vivo studies.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogens have a substantial bearing on food safety and environmental health. The development of automated, portable and compact devices is essential for the on-site and rapid point-of-care testing (POCT) of bacteria. Here, this work developed a micro-automated microfluidic device for detecting bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7, using a seashell-like microfluidic chip (SMC) as an analysis and mixing platform. The automated device integrates a colorimetric/fluorescent system for the metabolism of copper (Cu2+) by E. coli affecting o-phenylenediamine (OPD) for concentration analysis. A smartphone was used to read the RGB data of the chip reaction reservoir to detect colorimetric and fluorescence patterns in the concentration range of 102-106 CFU mL-1. The automated device overcomes the low efficiency and tedious steps of traditional detection and enables high-precision automated detection that can be applied to POCT in the field, providing an ideal solution for broadening the application of E. coli detection.

Abstract
Efficient detection of cancer-related nucleic acids is pivotal for early cancer diagnosis. This study introduces a target induced three-dimensional DNA biomimetic networks (B-3D Net)-based ratiometric fluorescence platform using manganese dioxide nanosheets (MnO2 NS)/o-phenylenediamine in combination with hybridization chain reaction to detect cancer-related genes (p53 gene). The incorporation of multiple signals within the B-3D networks can significantly enhance catalytic activity and amplify the output signals, enabling a high sensitivity. Compared with traditional ratio fluorescence platforms, there is no demand to synthesize fluorescent nanoprobes due to the in-situ formation of fluorescence species, which is simple and cost-effective. The corresponding assay demonstrated exceptional sensitivity (with a detection limit as low as 2 fM), selectivity, reproducibility, and accuracy, which mitigates disturbances caused by instrument errors, an inaccurate probe count, and the microenvironment. Furthermore, the ease and straightforwardness of discerning changes in fluorescent brightness and colour by the naked eye are evident. Using the relevant software, a linear relationship between fluorescent images using a smartphone and target concentration was obtained. Hence, the novel ratiometric sensing system will demonstrate new opportunities on determination of target DNA samples in complex biological environments.

Abstract
A novel reaction-based ratiometric fluorescent probe 1 for Cu2+ using picolinate as the reaction site and hemicyanine as the fluorophore was developed. 1 displayed maximum absorption peak at 355 nm and fluorescence emission peak at 500 nm, with large Stokes shift of 145 nm. Upon reaction with Cu2+, the maximum absorption and fluorescence emission peaks red-shifted to 390 nm and 570 nm respectively, owing to Cu2+-induced hydrolysis of the picolinate moiety in 1. Meanwhile, the solution of 1 turned from green to orange under a 365 nm UV lamp. 1 not only could detect Cu2+ ratiometrically by the ratios of both absorbance (A390 nm/A355 nm) and fluorescence intensity (F570 nm/F500 nm), but also displayed large Stokes shift, fast response, high sensitivity and excellent selectivity over other metal ions in neat aqueous solution.

Abstract
Food contaminants pose a danger to human health, but rapid, sensitive and reliable food safety detection methods can offer a solution to this problem. In this study, an optical fiber ratiometric fluorescence sensing system based on carbon dots (CDs) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) was constructed. The ratiometric fluorescence response of Cu2+and thiram was carried out by the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between CDs and 2,3-diaminophenazine (ox-OPD, oxidized state o-phenylenediamine). The oxidation of OPD by Cu2+resulted in the formation of ox-OPD, which quenched the fluorescence of CDs and exhibited a new emission peak at 573 nm. The formation of a [dithiocarbamate-Cu2+] (DTC-Cu2+) complex by reacting thiram with Cu2+, inhibits the OPD oxidation reaction triggered by Cu2+, thus turning off the fluorescence signal of OPD-Cu2+. The as-established detection system presented excellent sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of Cu2+and thiram in the ranges of 1 ∼ 100μM and 5 ∼ 50μM, respectively. The lowest detection limits were 0.392μM for Cu2+and 0.522μM for thiram. Furthermore, actual sample analysis indicated that the sensor had the potential for Cu2+and thiram assays in real sample analysis.

Herein, a binary ratio-fluorescent and smartphone-assisted visual strategy basing on 4'-aminomethyl-4, 5', 8-trimethylpsoralen (AMT) and the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine was developed. Under the action of Cu2+, the fluorescent molecule, 3-diaminophenazine (DAP) formed which can act as a fluorescent acceptor of the ratio-fluorescent sensor. The emission spectrum of AMT overlapped with the excitation spectrum of DAP and, thus, it can act as the fluorescent donor of the ratio-fluorescent sensor. With the increasing concentration of Cu2+ and ALP, the fluorescent intensity of AMT decreased and the fluorescent intensity of DAP increased. The dual-emission reverse change ratio-fluorescent sensor realized the sensitive detection Cu2+ and ALP with the detection limits of 2 nM and 0.03 U/mL, respectively. In addition, the acceptable recoveries were obtained when the Cu2+ and ALP in spiked samples were detected. Furthermore, the relative activity of ALP was assessed by increasing the concentrations of the inhibitor Na3VO4 and IC50 of 25 μM was obtained. Importantly, the target concentration-dependent color change of DAP allowed us to utilize R/B ratio values to design the smartphone-assisting visual detection model of Cu2+ and ALP activity with the detection limits of 0.1 μM and 0.18 U/mL. This simple, flexible, dual-mode sensor strategy has a potential for disease diagnosis and drug screening.

Abstract
With the expansion of human activities, the consequent influx of mercury (Hg) into the food chain and the environment is seriously threatening human life. Herein, nitrogen and sulfur co-doped fluorescent carbon quantum dots (yCQDs) were prepared via a hydrothermal method using o-phenylenediamine (OPD) and taurine as precursors. The morphological characteristics as well as spectral features of yCQDs indicated that the photoluminescence mechanism should be the molecular state fluorophores of 2, 3-diaminophenothiazine (oxOPD), which is the oxide of OPD. The as-synthesized yCQDs exhibited sensitive recognition of Hg2+. According to the investigation in combination of UV-Vis absorption spectra, time-resolved fluorescence spectra and quantum chemical calculations, the abundant functional groups on the surface of yCQDs allowed Hg2+ to bind with yCQDs through various interactions, and the formed complexes significantly inhibited the absorption of excitation light, resulting in the static fluorescence quenching of yCQDs. The proposed yCQDs was utilized for Hg2+ sensing with the limit of detection calculated to be 4.50 × 10- 8 M. Furthermore, the recognition ability of yCQDs for Hg2+ was estimated in tap water, lake water and bottled water, and the results indicated that yCQDs have potential applications in monitoring Hg2+.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive fluorescent biosensor is reported for glucose detection based on a Fenton-like reaction triggered chemical redox-cycling signal amplification strategy. In this amplified strategy, Cu2+ oxidizes chemically o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to generate photosensitive 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) and Cu+/Cu0. On the one hand, the generated Cu0 catalyzes the oxidation of OPD. On the other hand, H2O2 reacts with Cu+ to produce hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) and Cu2+ through a Cu+-mediated Fenton-like reaction. The generated ˙OH and recycled Cu2+ ions take turns oxidizing OPD to produce more photoactive DAP, triggering a self-sustaining chemical redox-cycling reaction and a remarkable fluorescent enhancement. It is worth mentioning that the cascade reaction did not stop until OPD molecules were completely consumed. Benefiting from H2O2-triggered chemical redox-cycling signal amplification, the strategy was exploited for the development of an ultrasensitive fluorescent biosensor for glucose determination. Glucose content monitoring was realized with a linear range from 1 nM to 1 μM and a limit of detection of 0.3 nM. This study validates the practicability of the chemical redox-cycling signal amplification on the fluorescent bioanalysis of glucose in human serum samples. It is expected that the method offers new opportunities to develop ultrasensitive fluorescent analysis strategy.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive split-type fluorescent immunobiosensor has been reported based on a cascade signal amplification strategy by coupling chemical redox-cycling and Fenton-like reaction. In this strategy, Cu2+ could oxidize chemically o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to generate photosensitive 2, 3-diaminophenazine (DAP) and Cu+/Cu0. On one hand, the generated Cu0 in turn catalyzed the oxidation of OPD. On the other hand, the introduced H2O2 reacted with Cu + ion to produce hydroxyl radicals (·OH) and Cu2+ ion through a Cu + -mediated Fenton-like reaction. The produced ·OH and recycled Cu2+ ion could take turns oxidizing OPD to generate more photoactive DAP, which triggering a self-sustaining chemical redox-cycling reaction and leading to a remarkable fluorescent improvement. It was worth mentioning that the cascade reaction did not stop until OPD molecules were completely consumed. Based on the H2O2-triggered cascade signal amplification, the strategy was exploited for the construction of split-type fluorescent immunoassay by taking interleukin-6 (IL-6) as the model target. It was realized for the ultrasensitive determination of IL-6 in a linear ranging from 20 fg/mL to 10 pg/mL with a limit of detection of 5 fg/mL. The study validated the practicability of the cascade signal amplification on the fluorescent bioanalysis and the superior performance in fluorescent immunoassay. It is expected that the strategy would offer new opportunities to develop ultrasensitive fluorescent methods for biosensor and bioanalysis.

Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:444.

Abstract
A multi-signal aptasensor for thrombin determination is proposed based on catalytically active gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and fluorescent silicon quantum dots (SiQDs). Yellow 4-Nitrophenol (4-NP) could be converted to colorless 4-Aminophenol (4-AP) by catalytically active aptamer-modified AuNPs (S1-AuNPs). The SiQDs emitted strong blue fluorescence at 455 nm at the excitation wavelength of 367 nm. When thrombin was absent, S1-AuNPs could catalytically reduce yellow 4-NP to colorless 4-AP. When thrombin was added, the aptamer could be transformed into a G-quadruplex structure, which masked the surface-active catalytic sites of AuNPs and restrained the reduction of 4-NP. Thus, the fluorescence of SiQDs was greatly quenched by 4-NP through the inner filter effect (IFE), and the solution color remained yellow. As the concentration of thrombin increased, the catalytic activity of S1-AuNPs decreased. The concentration of 4-NP that was converted to 4-AP declined and the unconverted 4-NP increased. In this process, the absorption peak of 4-NP at 400 nm increased while the fluorescence emission of SiQDs at 455 nm decreased. The linear ranges of the fluorometric and colorimetric aptasensor were 0.5-30 nM and 0.3-30 nM, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) for the two modes were 0.15 nM and 0.13 nM. Furthermore, a portable sensing platform was constructed by combining the smartphone-based device with the software ImageJ for the determination of thrombin. With the advantages of cost-effectiveness, simplicity of operation and broad applicability, this aptasensor provided a new perspective for on-site determination of thrombin in the clinical field.

Abstract
A novel ratiometric fluorescence strategy for sulfide ions (S2-) analysis has been developed using metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanozyme. NH2-Cu-MOF displays blue fluorescence (λem = 435 nm) originating from 2-amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid ligand. Besides, it possesses oxidase-like activity due to Cu2+ node, which can trigger chromogenic reaction. o-Phenylenediamine (OPD), as a common enzyme substrate, can be oxidized by NH2-Cu-MOF to form luminescent products (oxOPD) (λem = 570 nm). Inner filter effect occurs between oxOPD and MOF. Upon exposure to S2-, oxidase-like activity of MOF is depressed significantly because of the generation of CuS. On one hand, the amount of free Cu2+ decreases, affecting the yielding of oxOPD. On the other hand, CuNPs with larger size are obtained during the oxidation-reduction reaction between Cu2+ and OPD, which show weaker autocatalytic ability for OPD oxidation. These result in the decrease and increase of intensities at 570 and 435 nm, respectively. This method exhibits sensitive and selective responses towards S2- with LOD of 0.1 μM. Furthermore, such ratiometric strategy has been applied to detect S2- in food samples.

Abstract
In this work, a ratiometric fluorescence sensing platform was established to detect Cu2+ and D-PA (d-penicillamine) based on nitrogen-doped Ti3C2 MXene quantum dots (N-MODs) that was prepared via a simple hydrothermal method and exhibited strong fluorescent and photoluminescence performance as well as excellent stability. Since the oxidation reaction between o-phenylenediamine (OPD) and Cu2+ induced the formation of 2,3-diaminophenazine (ox-OPD) which not only can emerge an emission peak at 570 nm, but also inhibit the fluorescence intensity of N-MQDs at 450 nm, a ratiometric reverse fluorescence sensor via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was designed to sensitively detect Cu2+, where N-MQDs acted as energy donor and ox-OPD as energy acceptor. More importantly, another considerably interesting phenomenon was that their catalytic oxidation reaction can be restrained in the presence of D-PA because of the coordination of Cu2+ with D-PA, further triggering the obvious changes in ratio fluorescent signal and color, thus a ratiometric fluorescent sensor of determining D-PA was proposed also in this work. After optimizing various conditions, the ratiometric sensing platform showed rather low detection limits for Cu2+ (3.0 nM) and D-PA (0.115 μM), coupled with excellent sensitivity and stability.

Abstract
The coordination chemistry between phosphorylated molecules and metal ions has been reported, while few studies focus on its sensing capability. Herein, we report a colorimetric sensing strategy through the coordination chemistry between ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP) and copper ions. The phosphate group-containing AAP can coordinate with copper ions to induce a visible color change from blue to green in a rapid way, which can be easily read by the naked eye or a smartphone based on the blue-to-green (B/G) ratio. This coordination chemistry provides a facile and convenient strategy for designing colorimetric assays. Alkaline phosphatase can catalyze the hydrolysis of AAP to ascorbic acid (AA), thus modulating the AAP/AA transformation and the AAP-mediated coordination, offering a straightforward way for monitoring the enzymatic activity. This colorimetric sensing strategy shows good performances in stability, sensitivity, cost, and scale-up production, holding great promise as a point-of-care technique for diagnostic applications.

Abstract
Fluorescent nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon dots (NSCDs) were synthesized using a simple one-step hydrothermal method starting from o-phenylenediamine (OPD) and ammonium sulfide. The prepared NSCDs presented a selective dual optical response to Cu(II) in water through the arising of an absorption band at 660 nm and simultaneous fluorescence enhancement at 564 nm. The first effect was attributed to formation of cuprammonium complexes through coordination with amino functional groups of NSCDs. Alternatively, fluorescence enhancement can be explained by the oxidation of residual OPD bound to NSCDs. Both absorbance and fluorescence showed a linear increase with an increase of Cu(II) concentration in the range 1-100 µM, with the lowest detection limit of 100 nM and 1 µM, respectively. NSCDs were successfully incorporated in a hydrogel agarose matrix for easier handling and application to sensing. The formation of cuprammonium complexes was strongly hampered in an agarose matrix while oxidation of OPD was still effective. As a result, color variations could be perceived both under white light and UV light for concentrations as low as 10 µM. Since these color changes were similarly perceived in tap and lake water samples, the present method could be a promising candidate for simple, cost-effective visual monitoring of copper onsite.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective sensor for the quantitative assay of inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) activity was developed based on a fluorescence "turn-off" strategy. Carbon quantum dots@Cu(II)-based metal-organic framework nanotubes (CQDs@Cu-MOF) with length less than 300 nm and width less than 20 nm were synthesized. CQDs in the nanotubes exhibited weak fluorescence owing to static quenching. The coordination reaction between pyrophosphate ion (PPi) and Cu(II) decomposed CQDs@Cu-MOF and led to the release of CQDs, of which the fluorescence recovered. In the presence of PPase, the hydrolysis of PPi generated phosphate ion (Pi). CQDs@Cu-MOF remained their structural stability and the fluorescence turned off. The fluorescence intensity difference of the mixture of CQDs@Cu-MOF and PPi in the absence and presence of PPase (-ΔF) was proportional to the PPase concentration from 0.1 to 5 mU mL-1 and that from 5 to 50 mU mL-1, and a limit of detection at 0.03 mU mL-1 was obtained. PPase activity in human serum was analyzed using the proposed fluorescence sensor and the recovery values were found to vary from 95.0% to 104 %.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an important biomarker, it is of great significance to develop a sensitive and efficient analytical method for ALP. In this study, an in situ reaction based ratiometric fluorescence assay for ALP was proposed. l-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AA2P) was used as a substrate for ALP, and Cu2+/o-phenylenediamine (OPD) were involved in this system. Cu2+ can oxidize OPD to 2,3-diaminophenazine (OPDox) with an emission centered at 566 nm. The presence of ALP can catalyze the hydrolysis of AA2P to ascorbic acid (AA), which will inhibit the production of OPDox and reduce the corresponding fluorescence intensity, and AA will react with OPD to generate 3-(dihydroxyethyl)furan[3,4-b]quinoxalin-1-one (DFQ) with an emission peak at 447 nm. The fluorescence ratio of F447/F566 has a linear relationship with ALP activity. The proposed method is highly sensitive, finely selective, cost efficiency and easy to operate, it exhibits good linearity in the range of 0.5-22 and 22-40 mU·mL-1, with a detection limit as low as 0.06 mU·mL-1. The excellent applicability of this strategy in human serum samples and MCF-7 cells imaging suggests that this method has promising prospects for biomedical research.

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrated a personal glucose meter-based method for washing-free and label-free inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) detection, which relies on the cascade enzymatic reaction (CER) promoted by hexokinase and pyruvate kinase. In principle, the absence of target PPase enables adenosine triphosphate sulfurylase to catalyze the conversion of pyrophosphate (PPi) to ATP, a substrate of CER, which results in the significant reduction of glucose levels by the effective CER process. In contrast, the PPi cleavage activity works in the presence of target PPase by decomposing PPi to orthophosphate (Pi). Therefore, the CER process cannot be effectively executed, leading to the maintenance of the initial high glucose level that may be measured by a portable personal glucose meter. Based on this novel strategy, a quantitative evaluation of the PPase activity may be achieved in a dynamic linear range of 1.5-25 mU/mL with a detection limit of 1.18 mU/mL. Compared with the previous PPase detection methods, this method eliminates the demand for expensive and bulky analysis equipment as well as a complex washing step. More importantly, the diagnostic capability of this method was also successfully verified by reliably detecting PPase present in an undiluted human serum sample with an excellent recovery ratio of 100 ± 2%.

Nitric oxide detection using catalytic properties of CuCo-PTC metal organic framework. Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:263.

Abstract
As a vital gaseous signal molecule involved in various physiological and pathological processes, nitric oxide (NO) has attracted extensive attention in the last few decades. In this work, a copper and cobalt element-doped, biphenyl-(3, 4', 5)-tricarboxylic acid (H3PTC)-synthesized metal organic framework (CuCo-PTC MOF) composite with catalytic ability was synthesized by solvothermal method. The material can catalyse the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) groups by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to form fluorophores (OPDox) with yellow fluorescence emission and greatly improves its reaction rate. In the presence of NO, OPD will react with NO to produce N-(2-hydrazinophenyl) methylamine, and the group will not react with H2O2. Therefore, the concentration of NO can be measured indirectly by comparing the changes of fluorescence intensity in the presence and absence of NO. As the concentration of NO changes, the change of solution colour (from bright yellow to colourless) can also be observed under a 365-nm UV lamp. Furthermore, the method represents high selectivity for NO and shows a fast (within 5 min) and specific fluorescence response toward NO with a linear range from 0.25 to 2.0 μM; the strategy has a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.15 μM. More importantly, the probe was successfully used to detect NO in cell lysate. The recovery was between 98.5 and 103.6%, and the relative standard deviation was between 0.4 and 1.8%. The endogenous NO in cells was successfully detected under the stimulation of L-arginine, which proved the possibility of the probe in real-time and rapid sensing in actual samples and cells. The results indicate that this sensing strategy has the potential to detect NO in the internal environment. Schematic of fluorescence detection of NO.

Abstract
This work suggested that Cu2+ ion coordinated by the peptide with a histidine (His or H) residue in the first position from the free N-terminal reveals oxidase-mimicking activity. A biotinylated polymer was prepared by modifying His residues on the side chain amino groups of lysine residues (denoted as KH) to chelate multiple Cu2+ ions. The resulting biotin-poly-(KH-Cu)20 polymer with multiple catalytic sites was employed as the signal label for immunoassay. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) was determined as the model target. The captured biotin-poly-(KH-Cu)20 polymer could catalyze the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to produce fluorescent 2,3-diaminophenazine (OPDox). The signal was proportional to PSA concentration from 0.01 to 2 ng/mL, and the detection limit was found to be eight pg/mL. The high sensitivity of the method enabled the assays of PSA in real serum samples. The work should be valuable for the design of novel biosensors for clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
A simple and highly selective fluorescence biosensor has been exploited for p-nitrophenol (p-NP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity detection based on the glutathione-stabilized copper nanoclusters (GSH-CuNCs) mediated-inner filter effect (IFE). The GSH-CuNCs were prepared by employing GSH as stabilizer and ascorbic acid (AA) as reductant. The obtained GSH-CuNCs exhibited a strong blue fluorescence emission at 420 nm with an excitation wavelength of 365 nm, which overlapped largely with the absorption spectra of p-nitrophenol (p-NP). Therefore, the luminescence of GSH-CuNCs could be quenched by p-NP through inner filter effect. In addition, ALP catalyzed the substrate p-nitrophenyl phosphate (p-NPP) to form p-nitrophenol (p-NP), which also leading to the fluorescence quenching of GSH-CuNCs. The fluorescent strategy was realized for the sensitive determination of p-NP and ALP activity with the promising limit of detection of 20 nM (for p-NP) and 0.003 mU⋅mL-1 (for ALP). Furthermore, the method could be applied to detect the p-NP content in river water samples and ALP activity in human serum samples.

Abstract
A new dual-mode ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric probe for selective determination of Cu2+ was developed based on blue-emission sulfur quantum dots (SQDs) and yellow-emission carbon quantum dots (CQDs). The fluorescence and absorbance of CQDs increased in the presence of Cu2+ due to the Cu2+ -oxidized o-phenylenediamine group on the surface of the CQDs. Because of the inner filter effect between SQDs and CQDs-Cu2+, the fluorescence response of SQDs decreased following the introduction of Cu2+. Furthermore, in the presence of Cu2+, the dual-mode SQD-CQD probe showed visible color changes under both ultraviolet light and sunlight. Under optimal conditions, the dual-mode probe was used to quantitatively detect Cu2+ with a linear range of 0.1-5.0 μM for ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetry, with a limit of detection of about 31 nM and 47 nM, respectively. Finally, the dual-mode probe was used for the determination of Cu2+ in practical samples to expand the practical application, and the difference between ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric methods was compared. The recovery results confirmed the high accuracy of the dual-mode probe, showing that it has immense potential for sensitive and selective detection of Cu2+ in practical samples.

Abstract
Herein, a dual-signal sensing strategy based on ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetry for Cu2+ and glyphosate determination was constructed. Fluorescence silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) were prepared by hydrothermal reaction, which has maximum fluorescence intensity under the excitation of 355 nm. o-Phenylenediamine (OPD) was oxidized through Cu2+ to generate 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD). The obtained oxOPD showed a strong absorption peak at 417 nm and quenched the fluorescence of SiNPs at 446 nm due to fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Meanwhile, oxOPD produced a new fluorescence emission at 556 nm forming a ratiometric state. With increasing Cu2+, the original solution changed from colorless to yellow. When glyphosate was present, the interaction between Cu2+ and the functional groups of glyphosate could reduce the oxidation of oxOPD, resulting in the enhancement of fluorescence at 446 nm and the decrease of fluorescence at 556 nm. Furthermore, the addition of glyphosate changed yellow solution to colorless. Under the optimal conditions of OPD (1 mM), 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.5), and incubation time (4 h), the ratiometric fluorescence sensor had good selectivity and showed a wide linear range of 0.025-20 μM with the LOD of 0.008 μM for Cu2+ and 0.15-1.5 μg/mL with the LOD of 0.003 μg/mL for glyphosate, respectively. Besides, it is worth mentioning that this developed sensing system showed good performance in real samples, providing a simple and reliable dual-signal detection strategy.

Abstract
Plants have complex internal signaling pathways to quickly adjust to environmental changes and harvest energy from the environment. Facing the growing population, there is an urgent need for plant transformation and precise monitoring of plant growth to improve crop yields. Nanotechnology, an interdisciplinary research field, has recently been boosting plant yields and meeting global energy needs. In this context, a new field, "plant nanoscience," which describes the interaction between plants and nanotechnology, emerges as the times require. Nanosensors, nanofertilizers, nanopesticides, and nano-plant genetic engineering are of great help in increasing crop yields. Nanogenerators are helping to develop the potential of plants in the field of energy harvesting. Furthermore, the uptake and internalization of nanomaterials in plants and the possible effects are also worthy of attention. In this review, a forward-looking perspective on the plant nanoscience is presented and feasible solutions for future food shortages and energy crises are provided.

Abstract
Nanozymes have offered remarkable advantages over natural enzymes and found widespread applications including biosensors, immunoassays, nanomedicines, and environmental remediation. Oxidation of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) by nanozymes has been listed as a standard protocol for determining nanozyme activities. Given the complexity of OPD oxidation processes, however, the mechanism of nanozyme-catalyzed oxidation of OPD remains elusive. In this report, mechanistic studies of nanozyme-catalyzed oxidation of OPD are performed and a distinguishably different mechanism from that of natural enzymes is found. A combination of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and electron microscopic studies provides compelling evidence that polymerization of OPD occurs on the surface of several different nanozymes. The unexpected polymerization causes a dense coating layer of poly(o-phenylenediamine) (POPD) on nanozymes renders the intrinsic properties of nanozymes. Therefore, this fundamental discovery raise serious concerns using OPD-based colorimetric method for determining nanozyme activities. Without examining the surface change of nanozymes after catalytic reactions, the use of OPD-based colorimetric method for determining nanozyme activities is strongly discouraged. Furthermore, POPD is discovered as a new oxidase mimic, and this new mechanism also provides a general and robust method to coat nanomaterials with POPD polymers of enzyme-mimicking properties.

Abstract
In this work, a facile one-pot hydrothermal route was employed to synthesize a series of fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) by using 20 natural amino acids, respectively, as the starting materials. It was found that the CDs synthesized using phenylalanine could possess the intrinsic peroxidase-like activity that could effectively catalyze a traditional peroxidase substrate like 3, 3', 5, 5'- tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of H2O2 to produce a blue solution; thereby, a catalytic sensing system for H2O2 has been developed. On the basis of this catalytic reaction, together with the fact that glucose oxidase (GOx) can catalyze the hydrolysis of glucose to generate H2O2, a sensitive catalytic sensing system for glucose could be further established. Furthermore, based on this catalytic reaction, taken together with the two enzymatic catalytic systems of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and choline oxidase (CHO), a highly sensitive multi-catalytic sensing system could be successfully developed for organophosphorus (OPs) pesticides such as dimethoate, DDVP, and parathion-methyl. Limit of detections (LODs) of H2O2 and glucose were estimated to be 6.5 and 0.84 μM, respectively. The limit of detection of the sub-nM level could be obtained for tested dimethoate, DDVP, and parathion-methyl OPs pesticides. The established sensing systems can exhibit good practical application performance in serum and several fruit samples.

Abstract
The colorimetric AuNPs-LISA is a new, powerful technique for the detection of Opisthorchis viverrini antigen (OvAg) in urine samples. However, the diagnostic sensitivity of the colorimetric AuNPs-LISA is powerless to screen ultralow concentrations of OvAg in urine samples in cases of early stage liver fluke infection. This work, we aimed to improve the diagnostic sensitivity of the colorimetric AuNPs-LISA by developing a new fluorescence AuNPs-LISA. O-phenylenediamine (OPD) was used as the chromogenic substrate instead of the tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) of the colorimetric AuNPs-LISA. Interestingly, the fluorescence of the OPD oxidation product by the peroxidase-like activity of labelled AuNPs can be extremely enhanced by a non-ionic surfactant, especially the Triton X-100. The proposed assay exhibited a dynamic linear detection of OvAg concentration in the range of 34.18 ng mL-1 to 273.44 ng mL-1 with the limit of detection at 36.97 ng mL-1 which the detection sensitivity enhancement around 1200-fold when comparing with the colorimetric AuNPs-LISA. This model exhibits high diagnosis sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, 91.28%, 91.75%, and 91.59%, respectively, compared to the traditional ELISA. The fluorescence AuNPs-LISA showed excellent potential for the diagnosis of OvAg in urine samples from endemic areas. This will provide an effective tool for the detection, control and elimination of human opisthorchiasis.

Abstract
A ratiometric fluorescence assay for alendronate (ALDS) has been designed with Ce4+-triggered cascade chromogenic reaction. This strategy involves three processes: (1) Ce4+ oxidizes ascorbic acid (AA) into dehydroascorbic acid (DHAA), which then condenses with o-phenlenediamine (OPD) to generate fluorescent 3-(dihydroxyethyl)furo[3,4-b] quinoxaline-1-one (DFQ), presenting the maximum emission at 434 nm; (2) As oxidase-mimics, Ce4+ can oxidize OPD into fluorescent 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) which shows a strong emission at 568 nm; (3) ALDS inhibits the oxidation ability of Ce4+ towards OPD, thus inhibiting the generation of DAP. Accordingly, a homogeneous ratiometric fluorescence system with dual emission comes into being and the presence of ALDS can change the fluorescence intensity ratio obviously. With F434/F568 as readout, ALDS can be detected sensitively with the detection limit of 30 nM. Moreover, this ratiometric method was used to analyze ALDS in both human serum and pharmaceutical samples.

Abstract
The development of sensitive and accurate detection of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and pyrophosphatase activity (PPase) is important as they play vital roles in biological systems. However, it is still not satisfactory for most of the analytical methods for PPi and PPase because of their Cu2+-dependence and poor accuracy. Although the metal ion triggered aggregation-induced emission (AIE) of metal nanoclusters (NCs) offers a new approach to design a Cu2+-free strategy for the accurate determination of PPi and PPase recently, current methods are all focused on utilizing pure metal NCs. Alloy NCs incorporating the advantages of diverse metal usually can achieve improved behaviors in the application, such as enhanced sensitivity and stability. In this work, glutathione stabilized alloy Au/Ag NCs were synthesized via a simple method and used for the fluorescence detection of PPi and PPase based on a Zn2+-regulated AIE strategy. The controlled release of Zn2+ by PPi and PPase could regulate the AIE of Au/Ag NCs and be employed to response PPi concentration and PPase activity. This method processes simple procedure, high sensitivity and stability, and low toxicity. In addition, we also studied the AIE behaviors of this Au/Ag NCs and offer some fundamental understanding of the AIE properties of water-soluble alloy NCs. This study not only provides a straightforward and new approach for PPi and PPase determination but a basis for further study on the AIE properties of alloy NCs and their application.

Abstract
Ever-increasing attention has been focused on constructing a sensing system for specific detection of glutathione (GSH) over cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcy), which usually interfere with the GSH detection due to their similar structures and the presence of thiol groups in these amino acids. Here, a novel fluorescence-sensing system is developed for highly specific GSH detection over Cys and Hcy. The sensing system is constructed through facilely mixing dipicolinic acid (DPA) and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) with cerium acetate at ambient conditions, denoted as DPA-Ce-GMP. The resultant DPA-Ce-GMP possesses fluorescence emission with excellent thermal stability and anti-light bleaching, which can be quenched by copper ions (Cu2+). The GSH, and not Cys or Hcy, can trap Cu2+ from DPA-Ce-GMP, resulting in the restoration of the fluorescence of the sensing system. The limit of detection reaches as low as 7.1 nM. The GSH detection in a real sample of human serum was further explored and exhibits satisfactory recovery. The developed sensing system has the advantages of ease-of-preparation, excellent selectivity and stability, demonstrating its potential application in disease diagnosis in the future.

Abstract
The monitoring of deferasirox (DEF) has important clinical roles in patients who need iron excretion. However, analytical methods with practicability and simplicity are limited. Moreover, ratiometric fluorescence strategies based on Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from carbon dots (CDs) as a donor are rarely reported as a drug monitor. In this work, CDs with an appropriate emitting wavelength at 480 nm and excitation around 370 nm were prepared by hydrothermal approach and HCl post-treatment. O-Phenylenediamine (OPD) can be oxidized by Cu2+ to produce yellow fluorescent 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD) in the system of Cu2+ and OPD (Cu–OPD). Correspondingly, a remarkable FRET from CDs to oxOPD in the system of CDs, Cu2+ and OPD (CDs–Cu–OPD) was fabricated with the quenching illustration of CDs, but emitting property of oxOPD. Attributed to the chelation ability of DEF on Cu2+, the inhibitory effects of DEF on the Cu2+-triggered oxidative capability reduced the FRET system by the decreased oxOPD. Thus, the recovered CDs at F480 and decreased oxOPD at F560 were found through a ratiometric mode by the addition of DEF in CDs–Cu–OPD for the DEF assay. The FRET behavior of CDs and oxOPD in CDs–Cu–OPD was proved clearly through the calculation of the association constant, binding constant, number of binding sites, and the distance between the donor and acceptor. Furthermore, this ratiometric method exhibited promising analytical performance for DEF with the application in real samples. The implementation of this work expands the application field of CDs and OPD oxidation in drug monitoring, and even other biological analyses through ratiometric strategy. CDs with appropriate emission property interacted with Cu2+-catalyzed oxidation of OPD to form a ratiometric fluorescence strategy for deferasirox (DEF) detection.![]()

Abstract
Integrating two kinds of fluorescent probes in one system to develop a ratiometric sensing platform is of prime importance for achieving an accurate assay. Inspired by the efficient overlapped spectrum of 2-aminoterephthalic acid (PTA-NH2) and 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP), a new sensitive ratiometric fluorescent sensor has been developed for Cu2+ on the basis of in situ converting o-phenylenediamine (OPD) into DAP through the catalysis of Cu2+. Here, the presence of Cu2+ induced the emission of DAP, which acted as an energy acceptor to inhibit the emission of PTA-NH2. This dual-emission reverse change ratiometric profile based on the inner-filter effect improved sensitivity and accuracy, and the highly sensitive determination of Cu2+ with a detection limit of 1.7 nmol·L-1 was obtained. The proposed sensing platform displayed the wide range of detection of Cu2+ from 5 to 200 nmol·L-1 by modulating the reaction time between Cu2+ and OPD. Moreover, based on the specific interaction between glutathione (GSH) and Cu2+, this fluorescent sensor showed high response toward GSH in a range of 0.5-80 μmol·L-1 with a detection limit of 0.16 μmol·L-1. The successful construction of this simple ratiometric sensing platform without the participation of enzymes provides a new route for the detection of small biological molecules that are closely related to human health.

Abstract
A fluorescence method for the determination of inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) activity has been established based on copper nanoclusters (CuNCs). The polythymine of 40 mer (T40) acts as a template for the reduction reaction from Cu2+ to Cu0 by ascorbic acid (AA). This reaction leads to the formation of fluorescent CuNCs with excitation/emission peaks at 340/640 nm. However, the higher binding affinity between inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and Cu2+ hinders the effective formation of CuNCs. This shows low fluorescence intensity. PPase catalyzes the hydrolysis of PPi into Pi during which free Cu2+ ions are produced. This facilitates the formation of fluorescent CuNCs. Thus, the fluorescence intensity was restored. The fluorescence enhancement of the system has a linear relationship with PPase activity in the range 0.3 to 20 mU·mL-1, and the detection limit is0.2 mU·mL-1. The relative intensity (I/I0) at 640 nm for the analytical solution versus system is also employed to screen the inhibitor for PPase with high efficiency.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a turn-on red-emitting fluorescent probe for the sensitive and selective detection of copper ions (Cu2+) in food samples and living zebrafish. The probe employs a hemicyanine scaffold as the fluorophore and a 2-pyridinecarbonyl group as the recognition receptor and quenching moiety. The 2-pyridinecarbonyl moiety can be specifically cleaved by Cu2+ and results in an approximately 18-fold fluorescence enhancement of the probe, thereby providing a fluorescence turn-on assay for Cu2+. Additionally, the probe exhibited excellent selectivity, high sensitivity, a broad linear relationship (0.020 to 8.0 μM), and a low limit of detection (4.0 nM, S/N = 3) for Cu2+. Concomitantly, the probe exhibited satisfactory analytical performance when used with actual food samples. Moreover, the probe could be used for in situ determination of Cu2+ in both living plant tissues and in living zebrafish.

Abstract
The abnormal expression of pyrophosphatase (PPase) is closely related to many diseases and malignant tumors, so the detection for PPase is of great significance in clinical diagnosis, disease monitoring, and other biomedical aspects. In this study, a sensitive and specific electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor combined highly specific Cu+-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) with high efficiency of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for the purpose of detecting pyrophosphatase has been designed. Highly efficient hybridization chain reaction amplification processed in homogeneous solution and the amplification products were connected to the electrode surface in one step, which solved the problem of low DNA amplification efficiency on the electrode surface because of the steric hindrance. Ru(phen)32+ was embedded into the dsDNA and functioned as ECL probes; the enhanced ECL intensity of the system had a linear relationship with the logarithm of PPase concentration in the range of 0.025-50 mU with a detection limit of 8 μU. The method was proved to be of good specificity, repeatability, and stability that could be used for screening and quantitatively determining pyrophosphatase inhibitor sodium fluoride. The practicability of this method in clinical application has been proved through the detection of serum from the clinical arthritis patients. Moreover, the method can be used to monitor PPase activity of arthritis patients before and after administration to provide reference for the effect of drug treatment.
