Abstract
Abnormal accumulation of mercury ions (Hg2+) in organisms can lead to severe central nervous system and other diseases. Therefore, the monitoring and detection of Hg2+ are of great significance for human health and environmental safety. Herein, we designed and synthesized a novel far-red to NIR emission fluorescent probe (Rho-Hg) based on rhodamine derivative as the fluorophore and thiospirolactone as the recognition site for turn-on detecting of Hg2+ in living cells and zebrafish. The probe Rho-Hg displayed superior sensitivity (detection limit = 17.5 nM), rapid response (<1 min), colorimetric change, high selectivity, and moderate pH stability. Leveraging this probe, we realized the real-time monitoring of Hg2+ in real samples, living cells and zebrafish. By fostering zebrafish embryos and larvae in Hg2+-containing nutrient solution, we noticed that Hg2+ was ingested into the zebrafish liver when zebrafish were grown up to 3 days old, and thus we successfully monitored the accumulation and changes of Hg2+ during zebrafish growth and development. Thus, the probe Rho-Hg could be a powerful tool for sensitive and real-time monitoring of Hg2+ in living systems.

Abstract
Since the aggregation-based emission (AIE) phenomenon emerged in 2001, numerous chemical designs have been built around the AIE concept, displaying its utility for diverse applications, including optics, electronics, energy, and biosciences. The present review critically evaluates the broad applicability of AIEgen-based chemical models towards sensing small analytes and the structural design strategies adjusting the mode of action reported since the last decade. Various AIEgen models have been discussed, providing qualitative and quantitative estimation of cationic metal ions and anionic species, as well as biomolecular, cellular, and organelle-specific probes. A systematic overview of the reported structural design and the underlying working mode will pave the way for designing and developing the next generation of AIEgens for specific applications.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective fluorescence method has been conducted for the detection of Hg2+ based on aminophenylboronic acid-modified carboxyl magnetic beads (CMB@APBA) and CRISPR/Cas12a system mediated by glyoxal caged nucleic acid (gcDNA). As a bi-functional DNA linker, gcDNA offers advantages of simultaneous recognition by boronic acid and complementary DNA/RNA. Under acidic condition, gcDNA can be immobilized on CMB@APBA through the formation of borate ester bond. The formed boric acid-esterified gcDNA can further bind with complementary CRISPR RNA through A-T base pairing to activate Cas12a with kcat/Km ratio of 3.4 × 107 s-1 M-1, allowing for amplified signal. Hg2+ can specifically combine with CMB@APBA, resulting in the release of gcDNA from CMB@APBA and the following inhibition on the activation of CRISPR/Cas12a system around magnetic bead. Under optimal conditions, the method exhibits a linear range from 20 to 250 nM, with a detection limit of 2.72 nM. The proposed method can detect Hg2+ in milk and tea beverages, providing a great significance for on-site monitoring of Hg2+ contamination in food.

Abstract
Achieving accurate detection of different speciations of heavy metal ions (HMIs) in an aqueous solution is an urgent problem due to the different bioavailabilities and physiological toxicity. Herein, we nominated a novel strategy to detect HCrO4- and Cr(OH)2+ at a trace level via the electrochemical sensitive surface constructed by Co3O4-rGO modified with amino and carboxyl groups, which revealed that the interactions between distinct functional groups and different oxygen-containing groups of target ions are conducive to the susceptible and anti-interference detection. The detection sensitivities of 19.46 counts μg-1 L for HCrO4- and 13.44 counts μg-1 L for Cr(OH)2+ were obtained under optimal conditions, while the limits of detection were 0.10 and 0.12 μg L-1, respectively. Satisfactory anti-interference and actual water sample analysis results were obtained. A series of advanced optical techniques like X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray absorption near-edge structure technology, and density functional theory calculations under an electric field demonstrated that chemical interactions between groups contribute more to the fixation of target ions than electrical attraction alone. The presence of oxygen-containing groups distinct from simple ionic forms was a critical factor in the selectivity and anti-interference detection. Furthermore, the valence cycle of Co(II)/(III) synergistically boosted the detection performance. This research provides a promising tactic from the microscopic perspective of groups' interactions to accomplish the precise speciation analysis of HMIs in the water environment.

Abstract
Biocompatible fluorescent probes have emerged as essential tools in life sciences for visualizing subcellular structures and detecting specific analytes. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a novel fluorescent probe (TPE-FdU), incorporated with hydrophilic 2'-fluoro-substituted deoxyuridine and hydrophobic ethynyl tetraphenylethene moieties, which possessed typical aggregation-induced emission (AIE) behavior. In comparison to the TPE-FdU (pKa 7.68) treated in neutral conditions, it performed well at pH 4, exhibiting an enhanced 450 nm emission signal of approximately four times stronger. As the pH value was increased to 10, the fluorescence intensity was completely quenched. The TEM images of TPE-FdU in an acidic environment (nanospherical morphology, AIE enhance, pH = 4) and in a basic environment (microrods, fluorescence quenching, pH = 9) revealed that it was a pH-dependent self-assembled probe, which was also illustrated by the interpretation of the NMR spectrum. Furthermore, the TPE-FdU probe exhibited a specific response to trace Hg2+ ions. Interestingly, the quenched fluorescence of the TPE-FdU probe caused by Hg2+ can be recovered by the addition of GSH due to the formation of the Hg-S bond being released away. MTT assay and CLSM images demonstrated that TPE-FdU was nontoxic and selectively visualized in the intracellular mitochondria. These results contributed to the development of advanced fluorescent probes with diverse applications in cell imaging, environment protection, and biomedical research.

Abstract
Exposure to mercury(II) ions (Hg2+) can cause various diseases such as Minamata disease, acrodynia, Alzheimer's disease, and Hunter-Russell syndrome, and even organ damage. Therefore, real-time and accurate monitoring of Hg2+ in environmental samples is crucial. In this study, we report a photoluminescent (PL) and electrochemiluminescent (ECL) probe based on a cyclometalated Ir(III) complex for the selective detection of Hg2+. The introduction of a reaction site, o-aminomethylphenylboronic acid, on the ancillary ligands allowed a prompt transmetalation reaction to take place between Hg2+ and boronic acid. This reaction resulted in significant decreases of the PL and ECL signals due to the photo-induced electron transfer from the Ir(III) complex to the Hg2+ ions. The probe was applied to the selective detection of Hg2+, and the signal changes revealed a linear correlation with Hg2+ concentrations in the range of 0-10 μM (LOD = 0.72 μM for PL, 8.03 nM for ECL). The designed probe allowed the successful quantification of Hg2+ in tap water samples, which proves its potential for the selective detection of Hg2+ in environmental samples.

Abstract
A newly synthesized AIEgen based on triphenylamine is fully characterized and coded as BRA for the simultaneous and discriminatory selective detection of Hg2+ and Ag+ ions directly in mixed aqueous media for the identification and purification of water with a low detection limit. Moreover, we employed BRA in histotoxicity in that when compared to the control group, fish exposed to the "novel synthesized luminogen (BRA)" that demonstrated photophysical phenomena during the "sensing of mercury and silver (heavy metals) in aqueous media" did not show any major distinguishing changes in the architecture of their gills, liver, muscle, brain, kidney, and heart tissues.

Abstract
We suggest that aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecular probes with single charged/reactive group can exist in the formation of nanostructures but not monomers at extremely low organic solvent content. The nanoaggregates show good dispersivity and emit week emission. Stimuli-responsive assembly of nanoaggregates by electrostatic interactions can turn on the fluorescence, facilitating the design of biosensors with single-charged molecular probes as the AIE fluorogens. To prove the concept, tetraphenylethene-substituted pyridinium salt (TPE-Py) was used as the AIE fluorogen for probing of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity with pyrophosphate ion (PPi) as the enzyme substrate. The dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscope experiments demonstrated that TPE-Py probes existed in aqueous solution at nanometer size and morphology. Stimuli such as the negatively charged PPi, citrate, ATP, ADP, NADP and DNA could trigger the aggregation of the positively charged TPE-Py nanoparticles, thus enhancing the fluorescence via AIE effect. ALP-enzymatic hydrolysis of PPi into two phosphate ions (Pi) limited the aggregation of TPE-Py nanoparticles. The strategy was used for the assay of ALP with a low detection limit (1 U/L) and wide linear range (1-200 U/L). We also investigated the effect of organic solvent content on the AIE process and found that high concentration of organic solvent can prevent the hydrophobic interaction between AIE molecules but show no essential influence on the electrostatic interaction-mediated assembly. The work should be evaluable for understanding AIE phenomenon and developing novel, simple and sensitive biosensors using a molecular probe with single charged/reactive group as the signal reporter.

Abstract
Methylmercury (CH3Hg+) recognition remains a challenging and imperative task due to its high toxicity and wide existence in the ecosystem. Herein, a novel fluorescent covalent-organic framework containing a boric acid functional group (COF-BA) was prepared by a postmodification strategy for CH3Hg+ detection. COF-BA served as a sensing platform for CH3Hg+ with fluorescence static quenching accompanied by fluorescence color changing from intense blue to colorless, and the detection limit was determined as 1.68 μM in a relatively narrow concentration range. COF-BA also exhibited superior selectivity toward CH3Hg+ detection. Furthermore, the spiked and recovery test in real water samples showed its efficient detection practicality. The detection mechanism of COF-BA toward CH3Hg+ was investigated. The recognitive boric acid group in COF-BA was first replaced by CH3Hg+. Then, the quinoline structure that served to limit the rotation of the imine bond was disrupted, leading to dramatic fluorescence quenching. The boric acid functional COF fluorescent probe can be a promising sensing platform for the detection of methylmercury and also provides new ideas for the construction of new fluorescent COF materials.

Abstract
Based on aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) mechanisms, a fluorescent probe SWJT-12 for the detection of ClO- was designed by using the CN bond as a reactive group. This synthesized probe can react with ClO- in a high aqueous phase, and it shows a large Stokes shift (144 nm) and low biological toxicity. Its limit of detection was calculated to be 0.28 μM. Furthermore, SWJT-12 was successfully used for ratiometric imaging of the exogenous hypochlorite anion in living cells.

Abstract
It is critical to design a novel and simple bifunctional sensor for the selective and sensitive detection of ions in an aqueous media in environmental samples. As a result, in this study, tetraphenylethene hydrazinecarbothioamide (TPE-PVA), known as probe 1, was successfully synthesized and characterized as having impressive photophysical phenomena such as aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and mechanochromic properties by applying mechanical force to the solid of probe 1. The emission of the solid of probe 1 changed from turquoise blue to lemon yellow after grinding, from lemon yellow to parakeet green after annealing at 160 °C, and to arctic blue after fuming with DCM. Such characteristics could lead to a variety of applications in several fields. The probe was implemented and demonstrated remarkable selectivity and sensitivity toward mercury(II) and silver(I) ions by substantially switching off emission over other cations. Following an extensive photophysical analysis, it was discovered that detection limits (LOD) as low as 0.18344 and 0.2384 μg mL-1 for Hg2+ and Ag+, respectively, are possible with a quantum yield (Φ) of 2.26. Probe 1 was also explored as a Hg2+ and Ag+ paper strip-based sensor and kit for practical use. The binding mechanisms of probe 1 (TPE-PVA) with Hg2+ and Ag+ were confirmed by 1H NMR titration. These results could lead to the development of reliable onsite Hg2+ and Ag+ fluorescent probes in the future.

Abstract
Three fluorescent glycosyl-rhodamine probes with good selectivity and sensitivity toward Hg2+ were developed. The detection limit of the probes toward Hg2+ is as low as 94.6 nM, which can be used to detect trace Hg2+ in solution. 1 : 1 stoichiometry was the most possible recognition mode of the probes toward Hg2+, and the OFF/ON mechanism of the probes toward Hg2+ could be attributed to the closing or opening of the rhodamine spiral structure caused by Hg2+. The detection of Hg2+ is reversible, which is beneficial for the recycling of probes. Moreover, these low cytotoxic probes can be safely and selectively applied to monitor Hg2+ levels in hepatocytes, and the fluorescence response follows a trend of Rho-Gal > Rho-Lac > Rho-Glu in HepG2 cells because the galactose group in Rho-Gal can selectively recognize ASGPR overexpressed on HepG2 cells.

Abstract
Food safety has become one of the urgent affairs in the global public health studies, and irregular viscosity is closely associated with the food spoilage extent. In this study, one kind of activatable molecular rotor (TPA-PBZ) based on triphenylamine derivates has been synthesized via the Schiff base condensation reaction. This rotor is comprised by donor-accepter conjugated structure, with aggregation induced-emission feature and a large Stokes shift of 160 nm in water. The rotation of aromatic rings in TPA-PBZ is restricted in high-viscosity microenvironment, with the gradually increasing fluorescence emission signal at 568 nm. Significantly, this rotor TPA-PBZ has successfully been applied not only in the determination of thickening effects of food gum, but also in the detection of viscosity enhancement during the liquid food spoilage process. This molecular rotor can be utilized as an intelligent monitor platform for food quality and safety inspection in viscosity-related conditions.

Abstract
Fluorescent nanoaggregates (FNAs) based on phenanthroline-based amphiphiles show changes in solution color from colorless to yellow upon addition of both Hg2+ (LOD ∼4 ppb) and CH3Hg+ (LOD ∼18 ppb). However, the extent of fluorescence quenching is more prominent with Hg2+ (∼12 fold) than with CH3Hg+ (∼4 fold). Also, unlike Hg2+, the interaction of CH3Hg+ needs more time, ∼10 min at room temperature. Experimental evidence indicates that both mercury species coordinate with the phenanthroline unit and facilitate the charge transfer interaction while destabilizing the nanoassembly. The lower charge density on CH3Hg+ along with its large size compared to Hg2+ may be the reason for such observations. Interestingly, FNAs show a selective response towards CH3Hg+ when pre-treated with EDTA. Further, analysis of heavy metal pollutants in drinking water and biological samples was performed. High recovery values ranging from 96% to 103.0% were estimated along with relatively small standard deviations (<3%). Low-cost, reusable test strips were designed for rapid, on-site detection of mercury species. Further, the in situ formed metal complexes are allowed to interact with thiol-containing amino acids. As expected, CH3Hg+, being less thiophillic, endures less interaction with cysteine. Mechanistic investigations indicate that thiolated amino acids can bind with the metal ion center and form a tertiary complex (cooperative interaction).

Abstract
Mercury is an anthropogenic toxic heavy metal found in the environment. It is highly desirable to develop a fluorescence probe that can selectively and sensitively detect mercury ions using a turn-on response. This paper reports the successful development of a peptide fluorescence probe, TP-2 (TPE-Trp-Pro-Gln-His-Glu-NH2), which uses aggregation-induced emission effects and high selectivity to detect Hg2+. After fluorescence was activated, Hg2+ was efficiently detected using the change in fluorescence intensity. The detection limit for Hg2+ in the buffer solution was 41 nM (R2 = 0.9952). Owing to its high sensitivity, high cell permeability, and low biotoxicity, the probe could perform live cell imaging under biological conditions. This study demonstrated that TP-2 can detect Hg2+ in complex biological environments.

Abstract
Although some reports on sensing ClO- had been presented, the ClO- sensor with high selectivity and sensitivity in aqueous media was still expected. Herein, an effective fluorescent sensor for ClO- in aqueous media was designed and synthesized by simple procedure based on cyanostilbene derivative (TCS). TCS exhibited strong fluorescence in aqueous media, which could be selectively quenched by ClO- among various species. The detection limit was as low as 3.2 × 10-8 M. The sensing mechanism of the oxidation of sulfur in thiophene unit was confirmed by the FT-IR spectrum, fluorescence Job's plot, 1H NMR spectrum and MS spectrum. This sensor was successfully applied on detecting ClO- in real sample and living-cell imaging, suggesting its potential application for sensing ClO- in both vitro assay and vivo environment.

Abstract
The sensitive detection and quantitative separation of toxic heavy metal ions in aqueous media are of great importance. In this study, a thermogelling poly(ε-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PEG-PCL) triblock copolymer (P1) was synthesized, and difluoroboron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) fluorophore integrated with thiosemicarbazide units was attached to the chain ends of P1 through consecutive post-polymerization modifications, leading to P4. P4 exhibited rapid and selective detection of Hg(II) in 100% aqueous media via turn-on fluorescence emission with a limit of detection (LOD) of as low as 0.461 μM. This turn-on emission behavior is attributed to the suppression of C˭N isomerization caused by the formation of a coordination complex between P4 and Hg(II) ions. The selective and quantitative removal of Hg(II) among various metal ions was achieved by trapping chelated Hg(II) ions inside the dehydrated P4 gel via thermo-controlled sol-gel-dehydrated gel transitions. Treating the Hg(II) ion-trapped dehydrated gels with sodium sulfide (Na2S) in acetone/water at room temperature led to HgS precipitates, and P4 in solution was dried and recycled. This recyclable thermoresponsive macromolecular probe is promising for not only Hg(II) detection but also its separation and removal from complex aqueous environments.

Tetraphenylethene-based fluorescent probe with aggregation-induced emission behavior for Hg 2+ detection and its application. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1148:238178.

Abstract
A tetraphenylethene (TPE) derivative was designed and synthesized upon conjugation with bis(thiophen-2-ylmethyl) amine (BTA) containing a mercury-binding moiety and further characterized by using Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), LC-MS, UV-Vis, and fluorescence spectroscopic methods. The resulting TPE-BTA exhibited comprehensive aggregation-induced emission while expressing a high quantum yield and emission intensity at 70% water fraction. The probe exhibited a good photochromic effect with a Stokes shift of 178 nm, and the emission intensity at 550 nm increased considerably with the color turning from dark green to bright green under a UV lamp upon the addition of 5 μM Hg2+. The lowest-energy conformation of the probe showed that two thiophene rings were perpendicular to the phenyl ring, while two BTA molecules were situated in a staggered form to each other. The sulfur and nitrogen atoms present in TPE-BTA were coordinated to the Hg2+ ion, and these binding sites were confirmed by the NMR parameters, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy signals, and structural calculations. The binding of Hg2+ to TPE-BTA was believed to restrict the intramolecular motion of TPE-BTA, thus inducing it to shine brighter according to the unique aggregation-induced emission effect. The concentration of Hg2+ was determined based on the enhancement of the emission intensity, and the present probe showed an extremely high sensitivity with a limit of detection of 10.5 nM. Furthermore, TPE-BTA enabled selective detection of Hg2+ even in the presence of a 1000-fold excess of other interfering metal ions. The proposed method was successfully employed to determine Hg2+ in living HeLa cells and real water samples.

Abstract
Hydrazine is a vital precursor used in several pharmaceuticals and pesticide industries and upon exposure can cause severe health hazards. Herein, a new AIEgen, tetraphenylethylene phthalimide (TPE-PMI), is synthesized in a one-step solvent-free mechanochemical approach exploiting the simple condensation between TPE-NH2 and phthalic anhydride and used for the selective and sensitive detection of hydrazine. TPE-PMI with an AIE-active TPE-moiety is non-emissive in the solid phase by design. Hydrazine performs the cleavage of TPE-PMI in a typical “Gabriel synthesis” pathway to release AIE-active TPE-NH2 in an aqueous solution to emit blue fluorescence. A gradual rise in fluorescence intensity at 462 nm was due to the increasing hydrazine concentration and TPE-PMI showed a linear relationship with hydrazine in the concentration range from 0.2 to 3 μM. The selectivity study confirmed that the probe is inert to amines, amino acids, metal anions, anions and even common oxidants and reductants. The detection limit is 6.4 ppb which is lower than the US Environmental Protection Agency standard (10 ppb). The practical utilities of TPE-PMI were successfully demonstrated through quantitative detection of hydrazine vapour on solid platforms like paper strips and TLC plates. Furthermore, on-site detection of hydrazine in the solid phase was demonstrated by spiking the soil samples with measured quantities of hydrazine and quantitation through image analysis. This cost-effective sensing tool was successfully utilized in in vitro detection of hydrazine in live HeLa cells. A new AIE-based fluorimetric probe (TPE-PMI) has been successfully developed utilizing Gabriel reaction for the selective detection of hydrazine in solid, liquid and vapour phases.![]()

Abstract
Forensic science requires a fast, sensitive, and anti-interfering imaging tool for on-site investigation and bio-analysis. The aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon exhibits remarkable luminescence properties (large Stokes shift, diverse molecular structures, and high photo-stability), which can provide a viable solution for on-site analysis, while at the same time overcoming the problem of aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ). Based on the outstanding performance in chemical analysis and bio-sensing, AIE materials have great prospects in the field of forensic science. Therefore, the application of AIE in forensic science has been summarized for the first time in this article. After a brief introduction to the concept and development of AIE, its applications in the determination of toxic or hazardous substances, based on data on poisoning deaths, has been summarized. Subsequently, besides the bio-imaging function, other applications of AIE in analyzing markers related to forensic genetics, forensic pathology, (focusing on the corpse) and clinical forensics (focusing on the living) have been discussed. In addition, applications of AIE molecules in criminal investigations, including recognition of fingerprints and blood stains, detection of explosives and chemical warfare agents, and anti-counterfeiting have also been presented. It is hoped that this review will light up the future of forensic science by stimulating more research work on the suitability of AIE materials in advancing forensic science.

Abstract
New strategies still need to be proposed that can be used to sense and remove toxic environmental pollutants in a sensing system. In this research, a novel NIR fluorescence sensor 1 was designed and prepared with aggregation induced emission (AIE) property. The fluorescence intensity of the sensor 1 in DMSO/H2O mixed solvent was changed along with the proportion of water. The sensor 1 can be successfully used for real-time detection and removal of Hg2+ in 20% DMSO aqueous solution with high selectivity, quick response and so on. Furthermore it can be efficiently reused and recycled without any loss through Na2S. In addition, the sensor 1 displayed high sensitivity and selectivity to cyanide ions in 1% DMSO aqueous solution with the presence of other interference anions. The sensing mechanism for Hg2+ and cyanide ion was evaluated by 1H NMR spectra, Mass spectrometry. The sensor 1 exhibited low cytotoxicity for biological applications, which was used as an outstanding fluorescent transducer for detection of cyanide ion in living cells. Based on the visible fluorescence change for the sensor 1 to cyanide ion, the measurement was performed for food materials containing cyanide, such as potato, cassava powder and almond. This research provides perspective potential in solving the problem of other pollution and stimulating new thinking for designing of the novel fluorescence materials.

Abstract
Visualization of Hg(II) and MeHg in their native contexts is significant for examining mercury poisoning, while it is challenging because of indistinguishable fluorescent (FL) signals during FL imaging. Herein, visualizations of mercury methylation and dynamic transformations of Hg(II) and MeHg are achieved in living biological systems. Well distinguishable FL responses (blue emission for Hg(II), yellow emission for MeHg) are obtained by a double-response FL probe (DPAHB) without any interference. As demonstrated by experimental and computational studies, the distinguishable signals are attributed to selective binding with DPAHB and different inhibition of excited-state proton transfer. Through control tests for live-dead markers, mercury methylation is demonstrated to be employed in living biological systems. Therefore, the methylation and dynamic transformations of both ions are monitored in zebrafish by imaging, and these results are confirmed by traditional high-performance liquid chromatography-based methods. The methylation of Hg(II) to MeHg, dynamic transformations and final accumulations of both species in zebrafish tissues are visualized successfully. This method is also convenient for fast evaluation of detoxification reagents. This is the first visualization of in vivo mercury methylation and dynamic transformation of both species and is effective for studying pathological processes in their native contexts.

Abstract
Traditional chemical and biological sensors developed through aggregation-induced emission (AIE) are mainly based on “Turning on” pattern of fluorescence enhancement, which often has poor selectivity and can be easily interfered with by other substances. On this basis, an AIE-based tetraphenyl ethylene (TPE) derivative (TPE-COOH) was prepared in this study and aggregated by adding Al3+, so as to form the TPE-COOH/Al3+ polymer. TPE-COOH fluorescence was enhanced through AIE principle, thus realizing the “Turning on” state. F− could bind to Al3+ after the addition of F− ions which would result in the decomposition of TPE-COOH/Al3+ aggregate, dissolved state of TPE-COOH and gradual reduction of fluorescence intensity of the system, thus realizing “Turning off” state. Moreover, F− ions in biological fluid were analyzed and detected through such AIE-based “Turning on-off” pattern. The linear range of this method for F− detection was 3–12 μM and the detection limit was 0.9 μM.

Abstract
As a global public health problem, food safety has attracted increasing concern. To minimize the risk exposure of food to harmful ingredients, food quality and safety inspection that covers the whole process of "from farm to fork" is much desired. Fluorescent sensing is a promising and powerful screening tool for sensing hazardous substances in food and thus plays a crucial role in promoting food safety assurance. However, traditional fluorphores generally suffer the problem of aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect, which limit their application in food quality and safety inspection. In this regard, luminogens with aggregation-induced emission property (AIEgens) showed large potential in food analysis since AIEgens effectively surmount the ACQ effect with much better detection sensitivity, accuracy, and robustness. In this contribution, we review the latest developments of food safety monitoring by AIEgens, which will focus on the molecular design of AIEgens and their sensing principles. Several examples of AIE-based sensing applications for screening food contaminations are highlighted, and future perspectives and challenges in this emerging field are tentatively elaborated. We hope this review can motivate new research ideas and interest to aid food safety and quality control, and facilitate more collaborative endeavors to advance the state-of-the-art sensing developments and reduce actual translational gap between laboratory research and industrial production.

Abstract
Sequencing by synthesis is a significant method for high-throughput DNA sequencing. Herein, we synthesized terminal aggregated-induced-emission luminogen (AIEgen) labeled nucleotides (dNTPs-HCAP) that could serve as substrates for some polymerases and applied them into the sequencing of small DNA fragments. In the process of DNA amplification, ratiometric AIEgens are released from dNTPs-HCAP and aggregate through the effects of phosphatase, which results in changes in the ratiometric fluorescent signals. With the AIEgen-labeled nucleotides, we accomplished the sequencing of small DNA fragments through double changes in fluorescence. In addition, we achieved the differentiation of single nucleotide polymorphisms through rolling circle amplification reactions without the addition of signal probes, which is fast and cost-effective. The introduction of ratiometric AIEgens into DNA synthesis makes the detection of DNA sequences more efficient and accurate. Therefore, the development of AIEgen-labeled nucleotides is meaningful for the study of DNA sequencing methods.

Abstract
This work designed and synthesized the first organic fluorescent sensor for curcumin in aqueous media based on red-to-green fluorescence change of acylhydrazone-bridged bis-tetraphenylethylene (Bis-TPE). Bis-TPE was prepared by condensation of formyltetraphenylethylene with dihydrazide oxalate in 86% yield. It has the large conjugated electron effect with strong red AIE fluorescence in aqueous solution. It displayed high selective sensing ability for curcumin with red-to-green fluorescence change in THF-H2O (5:95). The detection limit was as low as 1.15 × 10-7 M. The sensing mechanism was confirmed as 1:1 stoichiometric ratio based on quadruple hydrogen bonds. Bis-TPE was successfully applied for analyzing curcumin of ginger and living cell imaging, supplying a new detecting strategy for curcumin in real sample and living environment.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2020; 227:117568. [PMID: 31654844 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2019.117568] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2019] [Revised: 09/12/2019] [Accepted: 09/24/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Although all kinds of sensors with unique detecting ability for one guest were reported, the fluorescence sensor with multiple detecting abilities was seldom presented. This work designed and synthesized a novel AIE fluorescence probe bearing double detecting for ATP based on Cu2+ and Zn2+ response of hydrazono-bis-tetraphenylethylene (Bis-TPE). Bis-TPE was prepared in 82% yield with simple procedure. It exhibited strong red AIE fluorescence based on the large conjugated electron effect in aqueous media. It showed outstanding selective sensing abilities for Cu2+ by strong fluorescence quenching and for Zn2+ by red-orange fluorescence change. The sensing mechanism of 1:1 stoichiometric ratios was confirmed by 1H NMR and MS study. The strong red fluorescence of Bis-TPE + Cu2+ system could be recovered by adding ATP. The orange fluorescence of Bis-TPE + Zn2+ system could be quenched by adding Cu2+ and then was recovered by adding ATP. These double detecting abilities for ATP with the "off-on" red fluorescence in Bis-TPE + Cu2+ system and "allochroic-off-on" orange fluorescence in Bis-TPE + Zn2++Cu2+ system were successfully applied to test Cu2+, Zn2+ and ATP in test paper and living cell imaging, displaying the good application prospects for sensing Cu2+, Zn2+ and double detecting ATP in the complicated environment.
