Abstract
BACKGROUND Tyramine is an important index of food freshness degree, and tyrosinase that can specifically oxidized monophenolamine to catecholamine plays a crucial part in the occurrence and development of melanin-related skin diseases. Therefore, it is crucial to develop sensitive and efficient methods for the detection of tyramine and tyrosinase. RESULTS In this work, encouraged by tyrosinase-triggered specific oxidation of tyramine to dopamine and the unique fluorescent reaction between dopamine and amino silane, we have developed a one-step synthetic strategy of silicon containing nanoparticles (Si CNPs) for "turn-on" detection of tyramine and tyrosinase. The Si CNPs formed with thoroughly studied mechanism exhibit uniform structure and robust yellow-green fluorescence. The low detection limits for tyramine (1.87 μM) and tyrosinase (0.0029 U/mL) demonstrate admirable sensitivity outstripping most methods. The proposed assay achieves satisfactory results in the determination of tyramine and tyrosinase activity in real samples. Furthermore, we leverage this new fluorescent assay to enable the fabrication of an "AND" Boolean logic gate. SIGNIFICANCE The entire process can be completed at easily available temperature and pressure with rapid response, convenient operation and visual observation. This fluorescent assay featured with excellent sensitivity, selectivity and stability has considerable prospects in the application of biosensors and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
In this study, a facile fluorescence-scattering ratiometric sensor was designed for visual and selective detection of levodopa (LD) via a clever physicochemical modulation scheme. The alkalized products of LD can rapidly react with polyethyleneimine (PEI) to exhibit an intense blue fluorescence and decrease the second-order scattering (SOS) signal of PEI. As the concentration of LD increased, the fluorescence intensity at 420 nm increased and the SOS intensity at 675 nm decreased synchronously. Thus the fluorescence-scattering ratiometric sensor was constructed by virtue of the two simultaneously changed signals. Furthermore, red light-emitting Au nanoclusters (AuNCs) were added into the above mixture solution to enlarge the SOS signal and provide a stable red background fluorescence. The intensity ratio of fluorescence to SOS (F/(S/Sblank)) is linear dependent on CLD in the wide range of 50.0---30000.0 nM, and LD as low as 50.0 nM can be identified with the naked eye via change of fluorescence color. The developed ratiometric sensor is smart, simple and efficient, and has been applied to the convenient assay of LD in real samples. The proposed physicochemical modulation strategy provides a new and facile path for selectively and visually identifying the target from its analogues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the unavoidable use of cerium in daily life, the accumulation of cerium in the environment increases health risks for humans. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a chemical sensing technology for the rapid, sensitive, and selective detection of cerium ions. RESULTS In this research work, a novel two-dimensional chain structure of a europium-based metal organic framework (Eu-MOF) [Eu2(tcpa)(Htcpa)2] was synthesized by using 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H2TCPA) as the ligand and europium nitrate as the metal source. The results of powder X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis show that the synthesized Eu-MOF has excellent chemical and thermal stability. When the Eu-MOF suspension was excited by ultraviolet light at 292 nm, four fluorescence emissions were observed at 420, 595, 620 and 705 nm. It was particularly interesting that when cerium ions (Ce3+/Ce4+) were added to the Eu-MOF suspension, the fluorescence intensity at 420 nm was enhanced, while the fluorescence at 620 nm was quenched. On this basis, a ratiometric fluorescent sensor for detecting cerium ions was constructed, which has a good linear relationship in the range of 0.05-15 μM and a detection limit of 16 nM. The plausible mechanism of the change in the fluorescence characteristics of Eu-MOF caused by cerium ions was discussed in detail. Through the study of fluorescence lifetime and ultraviolet absorption, it was proven that the mechanism of Ce3+-quenching Eu-MOF fluorescence is the inner filter effect. Photoinduced electron transfer and internal filtering effects lead to fluorescence quenching at 620 nm, while redox reactions lead to fluorescence enhancement of the ligand at 420 nm. SIGNIFICANCE The proposed ratiometric fluorescence sensor was successfully employed for the detection of cerium ions in real water samples, confirming that it can be used as an alternative method for the detection of Ce3+ and Ce4+ in environmental samples.

Abstract
The selective recognition of dopamine (DA) over other neurotransmitter analogues is difficult due to the similar molecular structure and chemical reactivity. In this study, substitution-regulated chemical reactivity of the sensing substrate is utilized to explore a novel DA detection probe with satisfying selectivity. As a case study, 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA, carboxy-substituted resorcinol)-based probes have been explored for selective and ratiometric DA sensing. The carboxy substitution benefits the stabilization of the carbanion intermediate and the azamonardine product, which enhances the reaction kinetics and thermodynamics and subsequently facilitates selective DA recognition over other analogues and interferents. By exploring DHBA emission as the internal reference, ratiometric fluorescence variation is realized, which contributes to sensitive DA analysis. With the combination of logic gate and fluorometric analysis, DA detection in both low and high concentrations can be readily achieved. In addition, the DA analysis in biological samples and the enzymatic transformation of DA analogues in cerebrospinal fluid samples are achieved by the proposed DHBA probe.

Abstract
Propyl gallate (PG) is a commonly used synthetic phenolic antioxidant in foodstuffs and industrial products. Due to the potential health risk of PG, rapid and on-site detection in food and environment samples are important to guarantee human health. Herein, we demonstrated rapid monitoring of PG by a fluorescence turn-on strategy based on a specific fluorogenic reaction between PG and polyethyleneimine (PEI). Specifically, Ce4+ with oxidase-mimicking activity oxidized PG to its oxides, which then reacted with PEI through the Michael addition to generate the fluorescent compound. The proposed fluorogenic reaction had good specificity for PG, which could distinguish PG from other phenolic antioxidants and interferences. Furthermore, portable and low-cost organogel test kits were prepared using poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate for quantitative and on-site detection of PG via a smartphone-based sensing platform. The organogel-based assay detection limit was 1.0 μg mL-1 with recoveries ranging from 80.2% to 106.2% in edible oils and surface water. Suitability of the developed assay was also validated by high-performance liquid chromatography. Our study provides an effective fluorescent approach to rapid, specific, and convenient monitoring of PG, which is useful for diminishing the risk of PG exposure.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent probe based on azamonardine (Aza) fluorophore was designed and synthesized for the highly selective detection of cysteine (Cys) in vivo and in vitro. After reacting with acryloyl chloride, the fluorescence of Aza is effectively quenched, resulting in the formation of the Aza-acryl probe. Upon the addition of Cys, the ester bond of Aza-acryl is cleaved, releasing a new compound (Compound 1) with strong fluorescence, thereby achieving fluorescence turn-on detection of Cys. The structure of Aza-acryl was characterized using X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. Additionally, density functional theory was employed to elucidate the quenching mechanism of the acyl group on the Aza. Aza-acryl exhibits high selectivity towards Cys and distinguishes it from other biothiols such as homocysteine (Hcy) and glutathione (GSH). The mechanism of Aza-acryl for detecting Cys was investigated through HPLC, NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and reaction kinetics experiments. Aza-acryl demonstrates excellent imaging capabilities for Cys in cells and zebrafish, providing a reliable and selectable tool for the detection and imaging of Cys in biological systems.

Abstract
A simple, green extraction method of dithiocarbamate (DTC) pesticides in food samples was developed using adhesive tapes and a green deep eutectic solvent (DES). A rapid and convenient determination and distinction method of DTC pesticides was established using tyrosinase inhibition assay. First, DTC pesticides were extracted by pasting and peeling off the adhesive tape, then eluted by the DES synthesized from xylitol and ethylene glycol. Second, determination of DTC pesticides was conducted by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase which can catalyze the oxidation of catechol. Less colored products were generated in the reaction system (tyrosinase, catechol, and 4-aminoantipyrine), leading to weak absorbance. In addition, different DTC pesticides (ziram, propineb, zineb, mancozeb, thiram, metiram, and ferbam) were successfully distinguished by sensor arrays (tyrosinase, phenolic compounds, and 4-aminoantipyrine) through principal component analysis. The limit of detection was found to be 0.2 μg kg-1, and the limit of quantification was 0.6 μg kg-1. The recoveries ranging from 89.4% to 103.8% were obtained in vegetable, fruit, and cereal, with a relative standard deviation of less than 4.2%. The method is simple, rapid, and convenient and shows good application prospects in the determination of pesticides in a variety of food samples.

Abstract
Tyrosinase (TYR), an important biomarker for melanoma, offered significant information early detection of melanoma and may decrease the likelihood of mortality. Therefore, this article constructed a highly sensitive and selective green fluorescent functionalized carbon quantum dots (TYR-CQDs) for tyrosinase (TYR) activity detection by one-step hydrothermal protocol utilizing catechol, citric acid and urea as precursors. The prepared TYR-CQDs illustrated excellent linear relationship and broad linear range with a low detection limit, which exhibited high accuracy and recovery in quantitative determination of TYR in human serum samples. Furthermore, the TYR-CQDs had successfully realized intracellular TYR detection owing to excellent biocompatibility, high anti-interference ability and good cellular imaging capability, suggesting the potential biomedical applications in early diagnosis of melanoma and other tyrosinase-related diseases.

Abstract
A new pulse UV irradiation-induced chemiluminescence (CL) determination method was developed for l-tyrosine using the luminol derivative L-012. The proposed method depends on the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon pulse UV irradiation of l-tyrosine; then, these ROS react with L-012 producing strong CL. The proposed method showed excellent sensitivity and ultraselectivity toward l-tyrosine. The mechanism of the developed CL method was studied using ROS scavengers, HPLC, and mass spectrometry. The method was linear for l-tyrosine in the range of 0.03-50 μM. Minor changes in the l-tyrosine structure, including hydroxylation, dehydroxylation, phosphorylation, or decarboxylation, were found to lead to a strong decrease in CL. Using the excellent selectivity of the proposed method for l-tyrosine, we have developed a CL assay for measuring alkaline phosphatase activity in the range of 0.02-15 U/L with the limit of detection (LOD) of 4 mU/L using the nonchemiluminescent O-phospho-l-tyrosine as a substrate. Furthermore, the CL reaction was applied for tyrosinase activity assay as this enzyme can convert l-tyrosine to the nonchemiluminescent l-dopa. The decrease in CL is correlated with the tyrosinase activity in the range of 0.025-0.75 U/mL with an LOD of 1.5 mU/mL. Moreover, the tyrosinase activity assay was successfully applied for the determination of IC50 of the tyrosinase inhibitors kojic acid and benzoic acid. Therefore, our novel pulse UV irradiation CL method for the determination of l-tyrosine was not only suitable for the determination of this vital amino acid but also extended to the successful determination of its producing and metabolizing enzymes and their inhibitors.

Abstract
Both single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) and protein-template metal nanoparticles have attracted comprehensive attention in several respects owing to their excellent catalytic performance, green facile synthesis process, and robustness. Herein, the peroxidase-like activity of single-atom copper anchored on bovine hemoglobin-template gadolinium nanoparticles (Cu,Gd@BHbFITC NPs) were successfully synthesized and two sensitive turn-on fluorescence strategies for tyrosinase (TYR) activity sensing were proposed for the first time. For strategy Ⅰ, TYR sensing was carried out from 1.00 to 7.80 U/mL with the detection limit (LOD) of 0.20 U/mL based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and the in situ generated polydopamine dots (PDA-dots). For strategy Ⅱ, The LOD of TYR was 0.05 U/mL with the linear range of 0.40-19.70 U/mL based on the elimination of inner-filter effect (IEF) between FITC and the reaction product (RC) of phenol and 4-Aminoantipyrine (AAP). The smartphone-assisted sensing platform was applied to construct the on-site detection of TYR with both strategies. The developed probe possessed good selectivity and was successfully utilized to TYR detection in serum samples.

Abstract
Tyrosinase (TYR, E.C. 1.14.18.1), a critical enzyme participating in melanogenesis, catalyzes the first two steps in melanin biosynthesis including the ortho-hydroxylation of L-tyrosine and the oxidation of L-DOPA. Previous pharmacological investigations have revealed that an abnormal level of TYR is tightly associated with various dermatoses, including albinism, age spots, and malignant melanoma. TYR inhibitors can partially block the formation of pigment, which are always used for improving skin tone and treating dermatoses. The practical and reliable assays for monitoring TYR activity levels are very useful for both disease diagnosis and drug discovery. This review comprehensively summarizes structural and enzymatic characteristics, catalytic mechanism and substrate preference of TYR, as well as the recent advances in biochemical assays for sensing TYR activity and their biomedical applications. The design strategies of various TYR substrates, alongside with several lists of all reported biochemical assays for sensing TYR including analytical conditions and kinetic parameters, are presented for the first time. Additionally, the biomedical applications and future perspectives of these optical assays are also highlighted. The information and knowledge presented in this review offer a group of practical and reliable assays and imaging tools for sensing TYR activities in complex biological systems, which strongly facilitates high-throughput screening TYR inhibitors and further investigations on the relevance of TYR to human diseases.

Abstract
Tailored to the increasing demands for sensing technologies, the fabrication of dual-modal sensing technologies through combining two signal transduction channels into one method has been proposed and drawn considerable attention. The integration of two sensing signals not only promotes the analytical efficiency with reduced assumption, but also improves the analytical performances with enlarged detection linear range, enhanced accuracy, and boosted application flexibility. The two top-rated output signals for developing dual-modal sensors are colorimetric and fluorescent signals because of their outstanding merits for point of care applications and real-time sensitive sensing. Given the rapid development of material chemistry and nanotechnology, the recent decade has witnessed great advance in colorimetric/fluorimetric signal based dual-modal sensing technologies. The new sensing strategy leads to a broad avenue for various applications in disease diagnosis, environmental monitoring and food safety because of the complementary and synergistic effects of the two output signals. In this state-of-the-art review, we comprehensively summarize different types of colorimetric/fluorimetric dual-modal sensing methods by highlighting representative research in the last 5 years, digging into their sensing methodologies, particularly the working principles of the signal transduction systems. Then, the challenges and future prospects for boosting further development of this research field are discussed.

Abstract
A self-correcting fluorescent assay of tyrosinase (TYR) was developed by utilization of Fe-MIL-88B-NH2 as a peroxidase-like nanozyme and a capture probe. Fe-MIL-88B-NH2 nanozyme was selected as an electron donor, and the oxidization product (dopamine-o-quinone) acts as an energy acceptor. First, TYR catalyzes the oxidation of tyramine hydrochloride to dopamine and then to dopamine-o-quinone. Second, Fe-MIL-88B-NH2 with intrinsic peroxidase-like activity decomposes H2O2 to produce ·OH radicals, which further accelerate the oxidation of dopamine to dopamine-o-quinone. Excessive H2O2 and ·OH radicals reduce the interferences from ascorbic acid at the same time providing a self-correcting ability. Dopamine-o-quinone reacts with -NH2 groups on the ligand of Fe-MIL-88B-NH2 through Michael reaction which results in fluorescence quenching. Under 365-nm excitation, the fluorescence emission intensity at 452 nm gradually decreased with increasing TYR concentration varying from 0 to 10 U mL-1. The linear range is from 1 to 5 U mL-1 and the detection limit is 0.05679 U mL-1. This self-correcting fluorescent assay of tyrosinase exhibits good sensitivity and selectivity which is also successfully applied for tyrosinase inhibitor detection. Schematic representation of fluorescent assay for tyrosinase determination based on Fe-MIL-88B-NH2 nanozyme. A self-correcting fluorescent assay for tyrosinase was developed based on the Fe-MIL-88B-NH2 nanozyme.

Abstract
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are widely used in the preparation of sensors that detect the content of substances because of their excellent electron transfer capabilities. In this paper, a [(PSS/PPy)(P2Mo18/PPy)5] multilayer composite film modified electrode was prepared by the potentiostatic deposition method. The electrochemical performance of the modified electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry under the conditions of different modified layers, different supporting electrolytes and different sweep rates. Different concentrations of tyrosinase were catalyzed by the modified electrode under a suitable supporting electrolyte, and the electrochemical sensing of tyrosinase by the modified electrode was studied. The research results show that the modified electrode has good stability and reproducibility for electrochemical sensing of tyrosinase, and the response current has a good linear relationship with the amount of tyrosinase added. Taking peak III as an example, the detection limit (S/N = 3) was 2.7649 U mL-1. It can be known from the timing ampere curve that as the concentration of tyrosinase in the reaction system continues to increase, its response current increases stepwise, providing a linear curve in the range of 3.66 U mL-1 to 26.87 U mL-1, and the minimum detection limit (S/N = 3) reaches 0.0021 U mL-1. The [(PSS/PPy)(P2Mo18/PPy)5] multilayer composite membrane modified electrode was used to detect tyrosinase in Penaeus vannamei. The spiked recovery of the sample was 96.3-100.8%, indicating that the modified electrode has high accuracy and can be used for the detection of tyrosinase in actual samples.

Abstract
Tyrosinase (TYR) is a crucial enzyme in melanin metabolism and catecholamine production, its abnormal overexpression is closely associated with many human diseases involving melanoma cancer, vitiligo, Parkinson's disease and so on. Herein, a dual-signal fluorescence sensing system for monitoring TYR activity is constructed depending on the transformation of blue-green fluorescence emission of copolymer. The developed sensing system is based on TYR catalyzing the hydroxylation of mono-phenol to o-diphenol and the conversion of fluorescence copolymer (FCP) blue emission (430 nm) and green emission (535 nm) in the presence of PEI. In the system, both blue and green emission exhibit a high selectivity and sensitivity (S/B up to 300 and 30 for blue and green emission, respectively) toward TYR in the range from 0.5 to 2.5 U/mL with the detection limit of 0.002 U/mL and 0.06 U/mL, respectively. Additionally, this assay is used to detect TYR in human serum with excellent recovery even at 30% human serum concentrations. Furthermore, it still has been successfully applied to TYR inhibitor screening by taking kojic acid as a model. We believe that our developed sensor has great potential application in TYR-associated disease diagnosis and treatment and drug discovery.

Abstract
Using the commercially available and economical 6-hydroxycoumarin (6-HC) as the substrate, a dual-emission ratiometric fluorescence sensor was developed to detect tyrosinase (TYR) activity based on 3-aminophenyl boronic acid functionalized quantum dots (APBA-QDs). TYR can catalyze 6-HC, a monohydroxy compound, to form a fluorescence-enhancing o-hydroxy compound, 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin. Owing to the special covalent binding between the o-hydroxyl and boric acid groups, APBA-QDs react with 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin to form a five-membered ring ester dual-emission fluorescence probe for TYR. With an increase in TYR activity, the fluorescence at 675 nm originating from the QDs is gradually quenched, whereas that at 465 nm owing to 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin increases. Referencing the decreasing signal of the dual-emission probe at 675 nm to measure the increasing signal at 465 nm, a ratiometric fluorescence method was established to detect the TYR activity with high sensitivity and selectivity. Under the conditions optimized via response surface methodology, a linear range of 0-0.05 U/mL was obtained for the TYR activity. The detection limit was as low as 0.003 U/mL. This sensing strategy can also be adopted for the rapid screening of the TYR inhibitors.

Abstract
Fluorescamine is a popular fluorescent probe. We report for the first time that luminol chemiluminescence (CL) can be enhanced by fluorescamine in the presence of PVP. The CL intensity of luminol-fluorescamine-PVP is about 26 times stronger than that of luminol. Both the removal of oxygen and the addition of superoxide dismutase (SOD) decrease CL intensity, thiourea and NaN3 have little effect on CL intensities, indicating that O2•- is critical for CL. Interestingly, o-quinone generated from phenol by tyrosinase obviously inhibited the CL intensity. Inspired by such quenching effect on the luminol-fluorescamine-PVP CL system, a sensitive CL sensing for the determination of tyrosinase activity was developed. The method can detect tyrosinase in the range of 0.07-1.5 μg mL-1 (0.19-4.02 U mL-1) with the detection limit of 0.035 μg mL-1 (0.094 U mL-1). Moreover, this method exhibits satisfied recoveries for the spiked human serum samples.

DNA-scaffold copper nanoclusters integrated into a cerium(III)-triggered Fenton-like reaction for the fluorometric and colorimetric enzymatic determination of glucose. Mikrochim Acta 2019; 186:862.

Abstract
A fluorometric and colorimetric method are described for the determination of hydrogen peroxide and glucose by integrating copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) into a Fenton-like reaction. The mechanism mainly depends on the fast formation of long-strand DNA-templated CuNCs with strong red fluorescence (with excitation/emission maxima at 340/640 nm) in the absence of H2O2. The DNA can be cleaved into short-oligonucleotide fragments by hydroxy radicals as formed in the Ce(III)-triggered Fenton-like reaction in the presence of H2O2. As a result, short-strand DNA loses the ability as a template for the formation of CuNCs. This leads to a decrease of fluorescence. The colorimetric assay, in turn, is based on the oxidation of colorless Ce(III) ions to the distinctly yellow Ce(IV) ions (with an absorption maximum at 400 nm) by H2O2. Compared with those assays based on the use of enzyme mimics, this method does not require any chromogenic substrates such as ABTS and TMB. Based on the dual-signal readout platform, we successfully achieved the detection of H2O2 and glucose. LODs are as low as 0.266 μM and 2.92 μM. The methods were applied to the sensitive determination of glucose by using glucose oxidase (GOx) which catalyzes the oxidization of glucose to produce H2O2. The practical application was demonstrated by determination of glucose in human serum, with apparent recoveries of 98.4-101.9% and 99.1-105.6%, respectively. The concentration of glucose ranges from 1 to 500 μM and 50 to 600 μM based on the dual-signal readout platform, respectively. This fluorometric and colorimetric dual-mode strategy will pave a new avenue for constructing effective assays for H2O2-related analytes in biochemical and clinical applications.

The assay has been designed by integrating copper nanoclusters into a Ce(III)-triggered Fenton-like reaction.

Abstract
The reaction-based deposition on various surfaces of an all-organic fluorescent coating is reported here, involving autoxidation of 2 mM dopamine in carbonate buffer at pH 9.0, in the presence of a 1 mM diamine–resorcinol coupler (Bis–Res) prepared from 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and hexamethylenediamine (HMDA). Spectral analysis of the films coupled with an LC-MS investigation of the yellow fluorescent mixture was compatible with the formation and deposition of HMDA-linked methanobenzofuroazocinone fluorophores. Both the emission properties and hydrophobicity of the film were abated in a reversible manner following exposure to acid vapors. These results provide an entry to efficient and practical fluorescent coating methodologies based on in situ generation and the deposition of wet adhesive, as well as fluorescent materials combining a strongly emitting fluorophore with the film-forming properties of long chain diamines.

Abstract
Sensitive and selective determination of mercury ion (Hg2+) is critical for human health and environmental monitoring. Herein we construct an effective ratiometric fluorescent sensing platform by combining green fluorescent polymer carbon dots (PCDs) and red fluorescent tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonic acid hydrate (TPPS) for specific and visual detection of Hg2+. The fluorescence of PCDs can be quenched by TPPS through inner filter effect (IEF). In the presence of both Mn2+ and Hg2+, however, Hg2+ can expedite the complexation of TPPS and Mn2+, which causes the decrease in both fluorescence and absorption of TPPS, accompanied by the fluorescence recovery of PCDs due to the subdued IFE between TPPS and PCDs. Based on the change of fluorescence signal, a ratiometric fluorescent sensing platform is constructed for specific and visual detection of Hg2+. The proposed approach presents a fine linear range for Hg2+ over the range of 10-200 nM with a detection limit of 0.038 nM. Moreover, an easily distinguishable fluorescence color change from pink to green with the increase of Hg2+ concentration can be observed by the naked eye under a UV lamp. Such a simple and effective method shows great potential for visual sensing of Hg2+ in on-site and resource-limited settings.

Abstract
As a vital, copper-containing oxidase, tyrosinase (TYR) is useful as a biomarker for the screening of skin diseases. In this paper, a convenient and sensitive homogeneous fluorescence detection platform for the assay of TYR activity without any modified steps is described. Inspired by the fact that carbon dots (CDs) with excellent properties can be obtained through some surface modification, amine rich carbon dots (N-CDs) using a nitrogen doping process were developed as the fluorescent probe for this assay. The effect and the response mechanism of the degree of nitrogen doping in relation to the response of different CDs to the sensing of TYR activity using dopamine (DA) as a substrate were investigated. The DA was oxidized to o-dopaquinone with the catalyzation of TYR and quenched the fluorescence of the N-CDs by direct interaction. By using a set concentration of DA and other optimized reaction conditions, the fluorescence intensity of the N-CDs was directly applied to monitor the TYR activity. This assay for TYR activity showed a broad linear range from 0.05 to 6.0 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.039 U mL-1. The satisfactory recovery of the sensor for TYR activity in diluted human serum illustrated a potential clinical application.

Abstract
Tyrosinase (TYR) which can catalyze the oxidation of catechol is recognized as a significant biomarker of melanocytic lesions, thus developing powerful methods for the determination of TYR activity is highly desirable for the early diagnosis of melanin-related diseases, including melanoma. Herein, we develop a novel portable and recyclable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor, prepared by assembling gold nanoparticles and p-thiol catechol ( p-TC) on an ITO electrode, for detecting TYR activity via the SERS spectral variation caused by the conversion of p-TC into its corresponding quinone under TYR catalysis. The developed SERS sensor has a rapid response to TYR within 1 min under the optimized conditions and shows high selectivity for TYR with the detection limit at 0.07 U/mL. Importantly, this SERS sensor can be easily regulated by applying negative voltage to achieve circular utilization, favoring the automation of SERS detection. Furthermore, the presented recyclable SERS sensor can perform well on both the determination of TYR activity in serum and the assessment of TYR inhibitor, demonstrating huge potential in the sensitive, selective, and facile detection of TYR activity for disease diagnosis and drug screening related with TYR.

Abstract
Tyrosinase is the key enzyme in the treatment of vitiligo. Development of rapid, simple, and visual methods for screening bioactive compounds with tyrosinase activity from natural compounds is interesting for new drug discovery. Herein, a novel visual ratiometric fluorescent assay for screening tyrosinase activators and/or inhibitors based on silicon nanoparticles (Si NPs) was explored. Inspired by the changes in both of the solution color and the fluorescence emission due to the sensing between Si NPs and dopamine (DA), we employed tyramine as the model substrate, which can transfer into DA by tyrosinase. It was found that the tyrosinase-incubated tyramine solution exhibited pale yellow under nature light or yellow fluorescence under UV light in the presence of Si NPs, where the color/fluorescence intensity were directly related to the concentration of tyrosinase. The established method showed good detection selectivity, and the LOD for tyrosinase was 0.14 U mL-1. Eventually, this assay was successfully applied to screen tyrosinase activators or inhibitors from a natural product-like library, and a tyrosinase activator with EC50 of 2.62 μM, more potent than the commonly used tyrosinase activator 8-MOP, was discovered.

Abstract
By coupling tyrosinase (Tyr) and β-galactosidase (Gal) into one redox-cycling scheme, an enzyme cascade-based electrochemical immunosensor with boosted selectivity and sensitivity was constructed using polydopamine-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs-PDA) nanohybrid modified electrodes. The MWCNTs-PDA nanohybrid presented a 5 times enhanced capability for antibody conjugation, which was responsible for signal amplification. In the proposed enzyme cascade scheme, Gal was captured on the immunosensor surface by a sandwiched immunoreaction, which catalyzed phenyl β-d-galactopyranoside (P-GP) into phenol based on a hydrolysis reaction. The resulting phenol was used as a substrate of Tyr, which was catalyzed to catechol and subsequently to o-quinone. The o-quinone was then electrochemically reduced to catechol, forming a redox cycle between catechol and o-quinone. The enzyme cascade-based immunoassay not only significantly amplified the electrochemical signal, but also led to a high selectivity. Taking the detection of CEA as an example, the enzyme cascade-based electrochemical immunosensor showed a detectable range of 10 pg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1 and a low detection limit of 8.39 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3), which was superior/comparable to those using other methodologies in previous reports. The selectivity of the enzyme cascade-based immunosensor was 44-80% higher than that of a single enzyme-based immunosensor. This work shows great potential of the coupling enzyme cascade in immunosensing for clinical diagnosis with boosted selectivity and sensitivity.

Being a typical copper-containing oxidase, tyrosinase plays critical roles in biological activity, and its aberrant expression might cause diverse skin diseases. Herein, we, for the first time, have found an interesting green fluorogenic reaction between methyldopa and ethanolamine. By combining transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and MALDI-TOF mass spectrum analysis, we have confirmed that there is a reliable method for preparing the bright green fluorescent polymethyldopa nanoparticles (PMNPs) by simply mixing methyldopa and ethanolamine at room temperature. Inspired by such a simple and convenient fluorogenic reaction, a novel polymethyldopa nanoparticles-based fluorescent sensor for detection of tyrosinase activity was developed by using the commercially available metyrosine as a substrate, accompanied by the tyrosinase-catalyzed specific conversion of metyrosine into methyldopa. According to the intrinsic sensitivity/selectivity of fluorescence technology and unambiguous response mechanism, our fluorescent sensor exhibits excellent sensing performance and can be utilized in the determination of the tyrosinase activity in real biological samples and inhibitor screening.

Abstract
Tyrosinase (TYR), a key enzyme in biosynthesis of melanin, usually functions as a biomarker of severe skin diseases such as vitiligo and melanoma cancer. Accurate detection of TYR activity in vivo is urgent but still challenging. Inspired by the advantages of bioluminescence in vivo strategy in imaging and the specific hydroxylation of 3-hydroxybenzyloxy group by TYR, a bioluminogenic probe, TYR-LH2, was designed and synthesized through caging D-luciferin with 3-hydroxybenzyl. The probe exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity toward TYR with a detection limit of 0.11 U/mL in a small detection volume of 100 μL. Bioluminescence imaging results show that TYR-LH2 is fully competent for monitoring the dynamic changes of TYR in living cells and model animals and possesses the capability of discriminating melanocytes from other cell lines, thus offering a promising approach for investigation and diagnosis of melanoma cancer and other TYR-related diseases in vivo.
