Talanta 2024; 276:126158. [PMID: 38714008 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126158] [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: 12/03/2023] [Revised: 04/13/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/09/2024]
Abstract
Tetracycline (TC), as a widely used antibiotic, is very useful in treating bacterial infections. However, its residues in animal foodstuffs can enter the human body through the food cycle and causes severe and chronic diseases. On the other hand, due to its weak non-biodegradability, it is considered a threat to the environment. In this regard, the development of sensing methods to detect and measure TC is need of the hour. Herein, a dual-emission fluorescence sensor based on porous aluminosilicate structure (ASS) with rough surface hexagonal shape morphology and pore diameter less than 2 nm was prepared. The porous AAS was modified by post-modification method with blue carbon dots (CDT) and rhodamine B (RB) as two fluorophores to develop the ratiometric fluorescence (RF) sensor (CDT-AAS/RB). Nanostructured CDT-AAS/RB emitted two resolved peaks at 445 and 585 nm , which were dramatically quenched in the presence of TC. The RF sensor, with excellent sensitivity, was able to measure TC over the linear range of 0.001-150 μM with a limit of detection of 5.4 nM in the aqueous phosphate buffer. Moreover, the AAS component granted high selectivity and anti-interference ability to the sensor. In addition, the stability of the sensor was greatly improved due to the non-accumulation of CDT nanoparticles and RB molecules in the presence of the AAS. The proposed method was able to determine TC in complex real samples with satisfactory recovery, and the obtained results were validated with standard high-performance liquid chromatography technique.

Abstract
Cytochrome c (Cyt-c) was commonly an intrinsic biomarker for a variety of cellular characteristics, such as respiration, energy levels, and apoptosis. Herein, a simple fluorescence sensor was constructed for the detection of Cyt-c in buffer and real serum samples. The carbon dots doped with Tb3+ on the premise of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) were fabricated and used as a dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent probe for detecting Cyt-c based on the internal filtering effect (IFE). As a fluorescent probe for ultra-sensitive detection, Cyt-c was quantitatively detected at different concentrations from 1 to 1000 nM. The fluorescent detection method for Cyt-c showed a good linear relationship from 1 to 50 nM, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.35 nM. In the recovery range of 101.27-103.39 % in human serum samples, the relative standard deviation (RSD) was less than 3.27 % (n = 3). In the end, the possible structures of CDs were predicted by DFT theoretical simulation calculations. All the results proved the ability of carbon dots as fluorescent probes to detect biomarkers and the application prospects in bioanalysis.

Abstract
Globally, 91% of plant production encounters diverse environmental stresses that adversely affect their growth, leading to severe yield losses of 50-60%. In this case, monitoring the connection between the environment and plant health can balance population demands with environmental protection and resource distribution. Fluorescent chemosensors have shown great progress in monitoring the health and environment of plants due to their high sensitivity and biocompatibility. However, to date, no comprehensive analysis and systematic summary of fluorescent chemosensors used in monitoring the correlation between plant health and their environment have been reported. Thus, herein, we summarize the current fluorescent chemosensors ranging from their design strategies to applications in monitoring plant-environment interaction processes. First, we highlight the types of fluorescent chemosensors with design strategies to resolve the bottlenecks encountered in monitoring the health and living environment of plants. In addition, the applications of fluorescent small-molecule, nano and supramolecular chemosensors in the visualization of the health and living environment of plants are discussed. Finally, the major challenges and perspectives in this field are presented. This work will provide guidance for the design of efficient fluorescent chemosensors to monitor plant health, and then promote sustainable agricultural development.

Abstract
As an important alarmone nucleotide, guanosine 3'-diphosphate-5'-diphosphate (ppGpp) can regulate the survival of bacteria under strict environmental conditions. Direct detection of ppGpp in bacteria with high sensitivity and selectivity is crucial for elucidating the role of ppGpp in bacterial stringent response. Herein, the terbium-carbon dots nanocomposite (CDs-Tb) modified glass nanopipet was developed for the recognition of ppGpp. The CDs-Tb in glass nanopipette preserved their fluorescence properties as well as the coordination capacity of Tb3+ toward ppGpp. The addition of ppGpp not only led to the fluorescence response of CDs-Tb but also triggered variations of surface charge inside the glass nanopipet, resulting in the ionic current response. Compared with nucleotides with similar structures, this method displayed good selectivity toward ppGpp. Moreover, the dual signals (fluorescence and ionic current) offered a built-in correction for potential interference. Apart from the high selectivity, the proposed method can determine the concentration of ppGpp from 10-13 to 10-7 M. Taking advantage of the significant analytical performance, we monitored ppGpp in Escherichia coli under different nutritional conditions and studied the relationship between ppGpp and DNA repair, which is helpful for overcoming antibiotic resistance and promoting the development of potential drugs for antibacterial treatment.

Abstract
Paper-based ratiometric fluorescence sensors are normally prepared using two or more types of fluorescent materials on a paper chip for simple, low-cost and fast detection. However, the choice of multi-step and one-step modifications on the paper chip affects the analytical performance. Herein, a novel paper-based dual-emission ratiometric fluorescence sensor was designed for the selective detection of tetracycline (TC). Carbon dots (CDs) modified with Eu3+ were combined with a sealed paper-based microfluidic chip by two methods: one-step grafting of CDs-Eu3+ on paper and step-by-step grafting of CDs and Eu3+ on paper. The analytical performance was studied and optimized respectively. The red fluorescence of Eu3+ at 450 nm is enhanced and the blue fluorescence of CDs at 617 nm is quenched by energy transfer in the presence of TC. Under optimal conditions, TC is selectively determined in the linear range from 0.1 μM to 100 μM with a detection limit of 0.03 μM by the step-by-step grafting method. In addition, the sealed paper chip could effectively prevent pollution and volatilization from the reagent. This technique has been used to analyze TC in seafood aquaculture water with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) have drawn attention due to their enticing physical, chemical, and surface properties. Besides, good conductivity, low toxicity, environmental friendliness, simple synthetic routes, and comparable optical properties are advantageous features of CDs. Further, recently, CDs have been explored for biological systems, including plants. Among biological systems, only plants form the basis for sustainability and life on Earth. In this Review, we reviewed suitable properties and applications of CDs, such as promoting the growth of agricultural plants, disease resistance, stress tolerance, and target transportation. Summing up the available studies, we believe that the applications of CDs are yet to be explored significantly for innovation and technology-based agriculture.

Abstract
In this study, a novel ratiometric fluorescence probe based on dual-emission carbon dots (CDs) for the sensitive detection of salicylic acid (SA) was constructed for the first time. The dual-emission CDs were synthesized by simple hydrothermal method using tartaric acid (TA) and m-phenylenediamine (mPD) as raw materials. In the presence of SA, the fluorescence intensity of CDs was enhanced at 499 nm, but remained basically unchanged at 439 nm. This phenomenon is caused by the intermolecular hydrogen bond interactions. The concentrations of SA had an excellent linear relationship with CDs' fluorescence intensity ratio (F499/F439) in a range of 1 ∼ 120 and 120 ∼ 240 μM with low detection limits of 0.68 and 1.05 μM. The established ratiometric fluorescent probe is economical, simple and green, and can be used for the effective detection of SA. In addition, the proposed ratiometric fluorescent probe was successfully used to monitor SA in facial mask and toning lotion samples with a satisfactory recovery of 99.7-106.7 %. The results show that the constructed fluorescent probe based on dual-emission CDs has a great potential for the rapid and sensitive analysis of SA in actual samples.

Abstract
Globally, antibiotic abuse, organic contamination, and excessive heavy metal ion pollution pose serious threats to human health. In this case, ratiometric fluorescent probes can eliminate the errors caused by environmental factors and provide more accurate detection results than single-emission intensity nanoprobes. Accordingly, based on the excellent biocompatibility and abundant surface functional groups of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) and the properties of large Stokes shifts and narrow emission bands of rare earth ions (RE3+), RE-CQD fluorescent probes have attracted widespread attention. Herein, firstly we review the combination of carbon quantum dots with rare earth ions (rare earth complexes) using various functionalization approaches to improve the defects of rare earth complexes and realize the functionalization of carbon quantum dots and their applications in many fields, such as biology and environmental science. In addition, we classify the methods for the synthesis of RE-CQD hybrids into three groups according to the different binding modes of the RE and CQDs, including doping, covalent grafting, and direct coordination. The excellent properties of these fluorescent probes are also briefly described. Finally, a comprehensive overview of the important applications of RE-CQD fluorescent probes in the fields of public safety sensing, chemical sensing, biomedical sensing, temperature sensing, and pH sensing is presented. In this review, the recent research progress in the field of ratiometric fluorescence sensing based on carbon quantum dots and rare earth ions is summarized and an outlook on the future development of RE-CQD fluorescent probes regarding their construction and potential applications is provided.

Abstract
The simple preparation of a nanohybrid of terbium-doped carbon dots/glutathione-capped copper nanoclusters (Tb@CDs/GSH-CuNCs) was for the first time developed for ratiometric detection of phosphate anion (Pi). Blue-emission of Tb@CDs can trigger non-luminescence of GSH-CuNCs for aggregation-induced emission (AIE) performance due to the strong reserved coordination capacity of Tb3+. Thus, Tb@CDs/GSH-CuNCs rapidly generated dual-emission signals at 630 nm and 545 nm by directly mixing the two individual materials via the AIE effect, alongside fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process. However, by the introduction of Pi, both AIE and FRET processes were blocked because of the stronger binding affinity of Tb3+ and Pi than that of Tb3+ and -COOH on Tb@CDs, thus realizing successful ratiometric detection of Pi. The linear concentration range was 0-16 μM, with the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.32 μM. The proposed method provided new ideas for designing nanohybrid of CDs and nanoclusters (MNCs) as ratiometric fluorescent probes for analytical applications.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) active 3-(3-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4'-(diphenylamino)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)acrylonitrile (BTPA) has been designed and synthesized herein, with the goal of detecting CN- ions at a low-level in semi-aqueous medium. The deliberate addition of the electron-deficient alkene BTPA increased its sensitivity and selectivity to CN- ions, with a better detection limit of 6.4 nM, unveiling the next-generation approach to creating sophisticated CN- ions selective chemosensors. The ESI-MS and NMR spectra analyses provided strong support for the structures of the chemosensors, while the UV-Vis, photoluminescence, and 1H-NMR titration experiments provided support for the sensing efficiencies. Subsequently, PVDF/BTPA electrospun nanofibers have been effectively produced as functional films. These nanofiber films exhibit outstanding mechanical strength, photo/thermal stability, and optical responsiveness to CN- ions, making them a potential choice for on-field emerging contaminant detection.

Abstract
Tetracyclines residues, particularly oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC), have raised extensive concern because of their serious adverse effects on human health. Herein, a dual-response fluorescent probe based on nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) and Eu3+ hybrid (N-CDs-Eu3+) was developed to selectively determine OTC and TC. The N-CDs act as ancillary ligands of Eu3+ and recognition units of OTC/TC, while the Eu3+ ions chelated with N-CDs can also specifically recognize OTC/TC. Upon inclusion of OTC/TC, an enhancement in Eu3+ emission occurs due to the energy transfer from OTC/TC to Eu3+ and the efficient elimination of quenching effect caused by H2O molecule, which is attributed to the incorporation of N-CDs; while the blue fluorescence emitted by the N-CDs decreases under the inner filter effect and static quenching effect caused by OTC/TC. Based on the double and reverse response signals, the ratiometric detection of OTC and TC in the range of 0.1-45 μΜ and 0.1-30 μΜ is achieved with a detection limit of 0.017 and 0.041 μM, respectively. In addition, the noticeable variation in fluorescence color of the probe is integrated with a smartphone-assisted analysis device for the rapid on-site quantitative assay of OTC, where the detection limit is 0.15 μΜ. The results show that this probe performs with excellent specificity and anti-interference for both OTC and TC, and satisfactory detection results are obtained in lake water, milk, and honey samples, thereby confirming that the probe exhibits promising application in food safety and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
2,4-Dinitroaniline is a multifunctional product and has been applicated in various fields. It has absorbed much concerns due to its large consumption and occurrence in many environmental matrices. It is urgent to explore reliable and sensitive measurement technology. Present study described an outstanding fluorescence sensor constructed with carbon dots (CDs) derived from vitamin B1. The CDs were fabricated by dealing with a facile hydrothermal process, and exhibited good water solubility, fluorescence stability and highly fluorescence quenching characteristics in presence of 2,4-dinitroaniline. The excitation and emission wavelengths of the obtained CDs were 305 and 378 nm, respectively. The sensor displayed good selectivity and sensitivity for 2,4-dinitroaniline. Good linearity can be achieved in two-stage of 0.2-3 μmol L-1 and 3-20 μmol L-1. The sensor earned low detection limit for 2,4-dinitroaniline down to 0.05 μmol L-1. The sensor has been commendably employed for analysis of 2,4-dinitroaniline in real aqueous samples with spiked recoveries in the range of 95.0-99.6%. The proposed sensor provided a promising alternative for analysis of environmental pollutants or other meaningful employment.

Abstract
Lanthanide ion probes have recently been considered as promising sensing materials due to their high sensitivity and good optical properties. Herein, the 3D hierarchical lanthanide functionalized layered double hydroxides microcapsules were synthesized via a facile ion exchange strategy and further developed as novel fluorescent probes for detecting trace amounts of the anthrax biomarker dipicolinicacid (DPA). Benefiting from the 3D porous superstructure and abundant unsaturated coordination sites of lanthanide ion, the ternary Ni-Fe-Ln-LDHs (Ln = Tb/Eu) not only possess a large reactive contact area to improve the sensitivity of DPA detection, but also demonstrate very fast reaction rate. The design of inexpensive fluorescent test strips can perform the on-site and real-time detection via a smartphone with a color recognition application. More prominently, the sensitivity of the system was evaluated by actual spore samples with the detection limit as low as 3.54 × 104 spores/mL. The 3D lanthanide functionalized LDHs nanoprobe constructed by ion exchange exhibits a new vision for the development of a sensing platform in other research areas.

Abstract
Phosphate (Pi) plays an essential role in aquatic ecosystems as well as in physiological processes. Here, a dual-emission probe for the sensitive, specific and visual analysis of Pi is fabricated by coordinating Eu3+ with luminol and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA). Pi can significantly enhance the characteristic fluorescence of Eu3+ at 615 nm by promoting energy transfer from DPA to Eu3+ and reducing the quenching effect of water molecule, luminol with inherent emission at 423 nm further enhances the Eu3+ fluorescence. Accordingly, ratiometric detection of Pi can be achieved with the fluorescence ratio F615/F423 as a function of Pi concentration. Linearity between F615/F423 and Pi concentration in the range of 0.1-25 μM is shown, and the limit of detection (LOD, 3σ/K) for Pi is 0.027 µM. In addition, a continuous change in the fluorescence color of the probe from blue to red is observed with increasing Pi concentration under a UV lamp, and a smartphone-based visual method is used for the convenient and effective semi-quantitative determination of Pi. The dual-emission probe has been successfully applied to ratiometric and visual analysis of Pi in human urine and environmental water samples, and adequate results are obtained.

Abstract
A ratiometric fluorescent probe with blue-emission fluorescence based on N, Si-doped carbon dots (N, Si-CDs) for the detection of balofloxacin (BLFX) was synthesized by simple one-pot hydrothermal carbonization using methotrexate and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as carbon materials. The obtained N, Si-CDs showed dual-emission band fluorescence characterization at 374 nm and 466 nm. Furthermore, the synthesized N, Si-CD probe exhibited evidence of ratiometric fluorescence emission characteristics (F466/F374) toward BLFX along with a decrease in fluorescence intensity at 374 nm and an increase in fluorescence intensity at 466 nm. Based on this probe, a highly sensitive and fast detection method for the analysis of BLFX has been established with a linear range of 1–60 μM and a low detection limit of 0.1874 μM, as well as a rapid response time of 5.0 s. The developed assay has also been successfully applied for the detection of BLFX in tablets and rat serum. A ratiometric fluorescent probe with blue-emission fluorescence based on N, Si-doped carbon dots (N, Si-CDs) for the detection of balofloxacin (BLFX) was synthesized by a simple method.![]()

Abstract
Several studies have reported the synthesis of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) by various methods. In this study, an easy one-step process to unsheathe CNPs from date palm fronds through a top-down ball milling method has been reported. The CNPs were characterized using various spectroscopic and microscopic methods to determine their structural and morphological features, optical properties, crystallinity, physicochemical properties, and particle stability. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that the obtained CNPs' size ranged from 4 to 22 nm in a crystalline form. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed their spherical shape, while the maximum photoluminescence (PL) intensity was recorded at 464 nm when excited at 375 nm. The unsheathed CNPs produced a good quantum yield (QY) of 3.24%. Furthermore, the CNPs exhibited high Raman ratios of I D/I G and I 2D/I G with values of 0.59 and 0.04, respectively, verifying their multilayer crystalline graphitic nature. These Raman ratios also agree with the X-ray diffractometry (XRD) results. The CNPs' sp2 and sp3 carbon bonds were confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), with oxygen on the surface forming carboxyl and carbonyl groups with no other observable impurities. Furthermore, the extracted CNPs showed excellent PL properties for up- and down-conversion. These properties are exemplary for low-cost biomass with potential applications in biomedicine. Therefore, the extracted CNPs reported in this study have potential applications in optical imaging.

Abstract
Plant diseases caused by pathogenic entities pose severe issues to global food security. Effective sensory applications and tools for the effective determination of plant diseases become crucial to the assurance of food supply and agricultural sustainability. Antibody-mediated molecular assays and nucleic acid are gold-standard approaches for plant disease diagnosis, but the evaluating methodologies are liable, complex, and laborious. With the rise in global food demand, escalating the food production in threats of diverse pathogen ranges, and climate change is a major challenge. Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) have been inserted into conventional laboratory sequence technologies or molecular assays that provide a remarkable increment in selectivity and sensitivity. In the present scenario, they are useful in plant disease management as well as in plant health monitoring. The use of NPs could sustainably mitigate numerous food security issues and or threats in disease management by decreasing the risk of chemical inputs and alleviating supra detection of pathogens. Overall, this review paper discusses the role of NPs in plant diseases management, available commercial products. Additionally, the future directions and their regulatory laws in the usage of the nano-diagnostic approach for plant health monitoring have been explained.

Abstract
In this work, carbon dots-doped terbium phosphonate coordination polymers (CDs-GMP/Tb) were designed and prepared as ratiometric fluorescent probes for the detection of citrate. The as-prepared CDs-GMP/Tb are prepared and have the merits of high photostability, low toxicity, and excellent biocompatibility. The as-prepared CDs-GMP/Tb as ratiometric fluorescent probes also have better anti-interference ability and stability compared with the traditional single fluorescent probe. The surface morphology, fabrication, and spectroscopy were characterized through a variety of instruments. It confirms that the probes exhibited network structure doping carbon dots. With the addition of citrate, the fluorescence of GMP/Tb at 545 nm was significantly quenched, contrasting to the enhancement of fluorescence of CDs at 454 nm. Under optimum conditions, the detection limit for citrate was 0.47 μM, with a linear range of 0-200 μM between citrate concentrations and I545/I454. It has high sensitivity, selective, and rapid detection for citrate. The as-prepared CDs-GMP/Tb as ratiometric fluorescent probes were also used for imaging citrate in living cells. These experiment results showed that CDs-GMP/Tb as ratiometric fluorescent probes could be applied to trace citrate detection in the environmental and biological fields.

Abstract
The development of red emission carbon dots with bright solid-state fluorescence would significantly broaden their application in optoelectronic devices and sensors. Herein, a red-emissive carbon dot-based nanocomposite has been synthesized through chemical bonding with cellulose films. The red emission originating from the surface states of carbon dots was maintained in the cellulose films. Due to the stable chemical bonding, the photoluminescence intensity and emission wavelength remained unchanged for 12 months, and the quantum yield of the composite was enhanced over 4 times. It also showed outstanding stability in water or weak acid-base environments under pHs ranging from 2 to 11. Therefore, the mechanism of chemical bonding that eliminated the defects and preserved the efficient radiative process through surface states was proposed.

Abstract
It was the first time to report the aggregation induced emission (AIE) of acetaldehyde (AA) on the surface of carbonized polymer dots (CPDs) with the auxiliary of Tb3+. Based on the AIE of AA, a turn-off-on fluorescence method was established for AA detection using the porous CPDs-Tb3+ system. The one-pot hydrothermal method was used to obtain CPDs, using milk and polyethyleneimine (PEI) as precursors. In the presence of Tb3+, CPDs aggregated immediately and even forming precipitate, and the fluorescence intensity decreased obviously. AA can effectively embed on the surface of CPDs-Tb3+ due to the porous structure. AA displayed obviously blue fluorescence with excitation wavelength at 370 nm (emission peak at 460 nm), while there was no fluorescence peak when excited at 460 nm. In the CPDs-Tb3+ solution, AA exhibits obvious fluorescence enhancement effect (λex 460 nm, λem 545 nm). And then, AA can be determined by the turn-off-on system based on the linear relationship between fluorescence enhancement and the concentration of AA ranging from 0.04 mM to 42.48 mM. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.02 mM. The turn-off-on system was successfully applied to determine AA in wine samples. The strategy may be exploited to monitor AA in more drinking or foodstuff samples.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent sensor based on an asymmetric anthracene derivative (SSAPA) was designed and synthesized. Using this molecule, a rapid and sensitive assay for detecting Tb3+ and ATP in aqueous solutions was established. The SSAPA molecule had excellent aggregation-induced emission (AIE) performance and good aqueous dispersion ability. This molecule could coordinate with Tb3+ and the fluorescence quenched linearly with the increase in the concentration of Tb3+ from 0.005 to 1.2 μM. Since both Tb3+ and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) have strong binding ability, ATP can compete with Tb3+ from the SSAPA/Tb3+ complex leading to fluorescence recovery. In this way, a brand-new fluorescent "turn-on" assay for ATP in the range from 0.01 to 0.4 μM was developed using the Tb3+-based complex probe. The detection limits for Tb3+ and ATP both reached single-digit nanomole per millilitre (2.8 nM and 4.5 nM, respectively), which demonstrated that this method has high sensitivity. Besides, Tb3+ and ATP also could be well detected in other complex environments such as real water samples or serum samples. This study provides a feasible assay for detecting trace amounts of Tb3+ and ATP in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
The development of diagnostic devices based on memetic molecular recognitions are becoming highly promising due to high specificity, sensitivity, stability, and low-cost comparing to natural molecular recognition. During the last decade, molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs) and aptamer have shown dramatic enhancement in the molecular recognition characteristics for bio(chemical) sensing applications. Recently, MIP-aptamer, as an emerging hybrid recognition element, merged the advantages of the both recognition components. This dual recognition-based sensor has shown improved properties and desirable features, such as high sensitivity, low limit of detection, high stability under harsh environmental conditions, high binding affinity, and superior selectivity. Hybrid MIP-aptamer as dual recognition element, was used in the real sample analysis, such as detection of proteins, neurotransmitters, environmental pollutants, biogenic compounds, small ions, explosives, virus detections and pharmaceuticals. This review focuses on a comprehensive overview of the preparation strategies of various MIP-aptamer recognition elements, mechanism of formation of MIP-aptamer, and detection of various target molecules in different matrices.

Abstract
Guanosine tetra- and pentaphosphate, (p)ppGpp, are important alarmone nucleotides that regulate bacterial survival in stressful environment. A direct detection of (p)ppGpp in living cells is critical for our understanding of the mechanism of bacterial stringent response. However, it is still challenging to image cellular (p)ppGpp. Here, we report RNA-based fluorescent sensors for the live-cell imaging of (p)ppGpp. Our sensors are engineered by conjugating a recently identified (p)ppGpp-specific riboswitch with a fluorogenic RNA aptamer, Broccoli. These sensors can be genetically encoded and enable direct monitoring of cellular (p)ppGpp accumulation. Unprecedented information on cell-to-cell variation and cellular dynamics of (p)ppGpp levels is now obtained under different nutritional conditions. These RNA-based sensors can be broadly adapted to study bacterial stringent response.

Abstract
Ratiometric fluorescence (FL) probes are highly desirable for highly sensitive and reliable assays. Dual-emitting carbonized polymer dots (CPDs) have great application prospects in building ratiometric FL sensors. However, dual-emitting CPDs are usually synthesized at high temperatures and high pressures, which not only increases the cost but also complicates the structure of CPDs. Here, we developed a facile strategy for the fabrication of dual-emitting CPDs at room temperature using tetrachlorobenzoquinone and ethylenediamine. The formation of CPDs was induced by Schiff base condensation reaction, enabling the following cross-linking polymerization process. The dual-emitting CPDs demonstrate good photostability and antioxidant capacity. Importantly, the typical dual-emission bands of the as-prepared CPDs are found to have a blue emission band at 445 nm with a maximum excitation of 350 nm and a yellow emission band at 575 nm with a maximum excitation of 440 nm. Based on the dual-emitting property of CPDs, a ratiometric FL nanoprobe is obtained for sensitive determination of vitamin B12 (VB12), as the inner filtering and static quenching effects between VB12 and CPDs allow effective quenching of the blue FL of CPDs, while the yellow FL is maintained. The established assay shows linear detection ranges of 0.25-100 μM with a low limit of detection of 0.14 μM. These findings provide new guidance for the facile preparation of CPDs with excellent dual-emitting optical properties, indicating good prospects in biosensing.

Abstract
A new generation of biomaterials with terbium-doped hydroxyapatite was obtained using a coprecipitation method. The synthesis of new materials with luminescent properties represents a challenging but important contribution due to their potential applications in biomedical science. The main objective of this study was to revel the influence of terbium ions on the design and structure of hydroxyapatite. Different concentrations of terbium, described by the chemical formula Ca10−xTbx(PO4)6(OH)2, where x is in the range of 0 to 1, were considered. The consequence of ion concentration on hydroxyapatite morphology was also investigated. The morphology and structure, as well as the optical properties, of the obtained nanomaterials were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometry (FTIR), SEM and TEM microscopy, UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopies. The measurements revealed that terbium ions were integrated into the structure of hydroxyapatite within certain compositional limits. The biocompatibility and cytotoxicity of the obtained powders evaluated using MTT assay, oxidative stress assessment and fluorescent microscopy revealed the ability of the synthesized nanomaterials to be used for biological system imaging.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) are nanomaterials with excellent photoluminescence property, usually used in the field of bioimaging tumor cells. However, its practical applicability in cancer therapeutics is limited by CDs' insensitive surface properties to complicated tumor microenvironment in vivo. Herein, a new type of innovative biomimetic nanoparticles has been formed with HeLa cell membranes (CM) and multifunctional CDs containing antitumor and bioimaging activities. The CDs are prepared by a facile one-step microwave-assisted procedure. Gallic acid is used as carbon resource and antitumor active molecule. Gelatin is treated as the nitrogen resource. Citric acid monohydrate is used as the auxiliary carbon source and the Hela CM is used for tumor targeting. A series of fluorescence analyses has proved its homotypic targeting and ability of diagnosis. Besides, in vitro and in vivo antitumor experiments further indicate their better antitumor efficiency. The findings show the totally new nanoparticles' feasibilities of dealing with the clinical therapy problems as well as applying for the integration of diagnosis and targeting therapy.

Abstract
Herein, we develop a novel method to synthesize lanthanide-functionalized carbon quantum dots via free-radical copolymerization using the methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer as a functional monomer and introducing a lanthanide complex to obtain the dual-emission fluorescent composite material FCQDs-Ln(TFA)3 (Ln = Eu, Tb; TFA: trifluoroacetylacetone). The obtained composites were fully characterized, and their structures were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 1H NMR spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Subsequently, a series of white-light-emitting polymer composite films FCQDs- (Eu:Tb)(TFA)3/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were designed and synthesized by adjusting the ratio of Eu(TFA)3/Tb(TFA)3 under different wavelengths. More significantly, FCQDs-Tb(TFA)3 was selected as a sensitive probe for sensing metal cations due to excellent photoluminescence properties, revealing a unique capability of FCQDs-Tb(TFA)3 of detecting Fe(III) cations with high efficiency and selectivity. Furthermore, the sensing experiment results indicated that FCQDs-Tb(TFA)3 is ideal as a fluorescent nanoprobe for Fe3+ ion detection, and the lowest detection limit for Fe3+ is 0.158 μM, which is superior to many other previous related research studies. This pioneering work provides a new idea and method for constructing a dual-emission ratio sensor based on carbon quantum dots and also extends the potential application in the biological and environmental fields.

Abstract
Metal organic gels (MOGs) as a new type of porous soft-hybrid supramolecular material have attracted widespread interest in various aspects due to their unique optical properties. In this work, we report a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission (679 nm) lanthanide MOG, which has been synthesized by a simple and rapid method at room temperature. This MOG (Tb-Ru-MOG) consists of a central metal ion, terbium (III), and two different ligands, tris(4,4'-dicarboxylicacid-2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) dichloride (Ru(dcbpy)32+) and 4'-(4-carboxyphenyl)-2,2':6',2″-terpyridine (Hcptpy). Compared with the classic system of tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) dichloride (Ru(bpy)32+)/S2O82-, Tb-Ru-MOG/S2O82- owns a narrower potential sweep range (0.00 to -0.85 V) and a more stable and stronger ECL signal. Interestingly, the ECL intensity only decreased 2.0 and 0.1% after continuous scanning for 8000 s and storing at room temperature for 3 months. The possible ECL mechanism has been discussed in detail, which is mainly attributed to the internal synergies (antenna effect and energy transfer) and external co-reactant. Inspired by the unique luminescence characteristics of Tb-Ru-MOG, the application in electroanalytical chemistry was identified by the ECL on-off response for epinephrine with a linear range from 1.0 × 10-10 to 1.0 × 10-3 mol·L-1 and a detection limit of 5.2 × 10-11 mol·L-1. The results suggest that the as-proposed Tb-Ru-MOG will provide a robust pathway for new ECL luminophores in analysis.

Abstract
Rare earth (RE) elements are widely used in the luminescence and magnetic fields by virtue of their abundant 4f electron configurations. However, the overall performance and aqueous stability of single-component RE materials need to be urgently improved to satisfy the requirements for multifunctional applications. Carbon nanodots (CNDs) are excellent nanocarriers with abundant functional surface groups, excellent hydrophilicity, unique photoluminescence (PL) and tunable features. Accordingly, RE-CND hybrids combine the merits of both RE and CNDs, which dramatically enhance their overall properties such as luminescent and magnetic-optical imaging performances, leading to highly promising practical applications in the future. Nevertheless, a comprehensive review focusing on the introduction and in-depth understanding of RE-CND hybrid materials has not been reported to date. This review endeavors to summarize the recent advances of RE-CNDs, including their interaction mechanisms, general synthetic strategies and applications in fluorescence, biosensing and multi-modal biomedical imaging. Finally, we present the current challenges and the possible application perspectives of newly developed RE-CND materials. We hope this review will inspire new design ideas and valuable references in this promising field in the future.

Abstract
Crop diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms pose severe threats to the global food supply. Effective diagnostic tools for timely determination of plant diseases become essential to the assurance of agricultural sustainability and global food security. Nucleic acid- and antibody-based molecular assays are gold-standard methodologies for the diagnosis of plant diseases, but the analyzing procedures are complex and laborious. The prominent physical or chemical properties of nanomaterials have enabled their use as innovative and high-performance diagnostic tools for numerous plant pathogens and other important disease biomarkers. Engineered nanomaterials have been incorporated into traditional laboratory molecular assays or sequencing technologies that offer notable enhancement in sensitivity and selectivity. Meanwhile, nanostructure-supported noninvasive detection tools combined with portable imaging devices (e.g., smartphones) have paved the way for fast and on-site diagnosis of plant diseases and long-term monitoring of plant health conditions, especially in resource-poor settings.

Abstract
Ratiometric fluorescence has drawn extensive attention owing to its self-calibration property. However, it is difficult to obtain appropriate fluorescent materials that can be excited under one excitation and possess well-resolved signals simultaneously. In this work, with the optical properties of the fluorescence of carbon dots (CDs) and the second-order scattering (SOS) of ZIF-90 (zeolitic imidazole frameworks-90) nanoparticles, the synthesized CDs@ZIF-90 can be applied to phosphate (PO43-) ratiometric detection. The fluorescence of CDs is greatly suppressed through encapsulating CDs into ZIF-90. Nevertheless, the SOS is quite obvious due to the high scattering intensity of large size ZIF-90. The competitive coordination between PO43- and the metal node of ZIF-90 decomposes CDs@ZIF-90, leading to the restoration of fluorescence and the diminution of SOS. On the basis of the PO43--induced ZIF-90 decomposition and CD release, a novel method for PO43- ratiometric detection is developed through the dual-signal response of the fluorescence scattering. Under the optimal condition, the method shows a linear range from 1.0 to 50.0 μmol L-1 with a detection limit of 0.23 μmol L-1. Furthermore, the probes are employed to assess PO43- in practical aqueous samples successfully. Compared with the traditional approach, which only records fluorescence signals, the method reported here provides a new strategy to design ratiometric sensors by fluorescence and scattering.

Abstract
Nanoparticles possess fascinating properties and applications, and there has been increasing critical consideration of their use. Because carbon is a component with immaterial cytotoxicity and extensive biocompatibility with different components, carbon nanomaterials have a wide scope of potential uses. Carbon nanodots are a type of carbon nanoparticle that is increasingly being researched because of their astounding properties such as extraordinary luminescence, simplicity of amalgamation and surface functionalization, and biocompatibility. Because of these properties, carbon nanodots can be used as material sensors, as indicators in fluorescent tests, and as nanomaterials for biomedical applications. In this review, we report on the ongoing and noteworthy utilization of carbon quantum dots such as bioimaging tests and photocatalytic applications. In addition, the extension and future components of these materials, which can be investigated for new potential applications, are discussed.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 386:121956.

Abstract
Many lanthanide ions-based probes have been widely used for detecting anthrax spores biomarker-dipicolinic acid (DPA). However, little work has realized detection of bacillus anthrax spores in real environmental samples. In this work, a novel ratiometric fluorescent nanoprobe based on europium (Eu)-doped silicon nanoparticles (Eu@SiNPs) was fabricated for the first time by one-pot method without post-modification for determination of the DPA in bacillus subtilis spores (simulant bacillus anthrax spores). Based on Eu(III) in the Eu@SiNPs could be sensitized by DPA to emit intrinsic fluorescence and the fluorescence intensity of SiNPs in the Eu@SiNPs almost remained stable, a new ratiometric fluorescent method for determination of micro DPA in bacillus subtilis spores and bacillus subtilis spores in real environmental samples, such as Yellow river water, tap water and soil was established. Under the optimum conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) of the method toward bacillus subtilis spores was as low as 2.38×104 spore/mL. Simple, fast and visual DPA and bacillus subtilis spores determination was also achieved by the Eu@SiNPs-based test paper. Therefore, the newly established method was expected to be a powerful tool for efficiently determination of bacillus anthrax spores to avoid anthrax threats.

Abstract
Herein, a facile and quick strategy to detect thiourea was conducted based on the reversion of fluorescence quenching of nitrogen doped carbon dots (NCDs) by Hg2+. The NCDs with good water solubility and 17% of quantum yield was synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method, using ammonium citrate and dextrin as carbon source and nitrogen source, respectively. The fluorescence of NCDs was obviously quenched by Hg2+ and can be recovered, due to stronger interaction between thiourea and Hg2+. There was a good linear relationship between the recovered fluorescence and the concentration of thiourea within range of 0.90-10.0 μM and the detection limit for thiourea detection was 0.15 μM. The as-prepared NCDs can be used for determination of thiourea in tap water, lake water and rice flour products, and the spike recoveries were between 91.6 and 108%.
