Abstract
Food safety is closely related to human health and has become a worldwide, pressing concern. Food safety analysis is essential for ensuring food safety. Sulfur quantum dots (SQDs), a new type of zero-dimensional metal-free nanomaterials, have recently become the focus of scientific research due to their good luminescence properties, dispersibility, biocompatibility, and inherent antibacterial properties. This review focuses on recent advances in SQDs, with emphasis on their practical applications in the food field. First, commonly used methods for the synthesis of SQDs are presented, including traditional and emerging strategies. The properties of SQDs are then analyzed in detail, particularly their luminescence properties, catalytic activities, and reducing properties. Next, the use of SQDs in food safety detection and antibacterial fields are elaborated. Finally, this review discusses the challenges associated with the use of SQDs in food safety detection and antimicrobial applications.

Abstract
The quantitative detection and discrimination of glutathione (GSH) were achieved based on oxalyl dihydrazide (ODH) decorated sulfur nanodots. ODH resulted in the aggregation and fluorescence quenching of the sulfur nanodots, and GSH selectively triggered fluorescence recovery through forming stronger hydrogen bonds with ODH than other biological thiols.

Abstract
Non-noble metal photothermal materials have recently attracted increasing attention as unique alternatives to noble metal-based ones due to advantages like earth abundance, cost-effectiveness, and large-scale application capability. In this study, hierarchical copper sulfide (CuS) nanostructures with tunable flower-like morphologies and dimensional sizes are prepared via a fatty amine-mediated one-pot polyol synthesis. In particular, the addition of fatty amines induces a significant decrease in the overall particle size and lamellar thickness, and their morphologies and sizes could be tuned using different types of fatty amines. The dense stacking of nanosheets with limited sizes in the form of such a unique hierarchical architecture facilitates the interactions of the electromagnetic fields between adjacent nanoplates and enables the creation of abundant hot-spot regions, thus, benefiting the enhanced second near-infrared (NIR-II) light absorptions. The optimized CuS nanoflowers exhibit a photothermal conversion efficiency of 37.6%, realizing a temperature increase of nearly 50 °C within 10 min under 1064 nm laser irradiations at a power density of 1 W cm-2. They also exhibit broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, rendering them promising candidates for combating a spectrum of bacterial infections. The present study offers a feasible strategy to generate nanosheet-based hierarchical CuS nanostructures and validates their promising use in photothermal conversion, which could find important use in NIR-II photothermal therapy.

Abstract
The presence of nitrite (NO2−) in water and food leads to serious problems in public health and the environment. Therefore, it is important to develop a rapid and efficient method for the selective detection of NO2−. In this work, the synthesis and characterization of magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2-TbDPA nanoprobe have been carried out. The Fe3O4@SiO2-TbDPA aqueous solution exhibits a strong green emission. Due to the addition of various concentrations of NO2− (0–100 μM), the fluorescence intensity has been suppressed. The nanoprobe Fe3O4@SiO2-TbDPA exhibits excellent selectivity and sensitivity toward NO2− ions. Excellent linearity is obtained in the range of 5–80 μM with a detection limit of 1.03 μM. Furthermore, the presence of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles in Fe3O4@SiO2-TbDPA nanospheres will also facilitate the effective separation of Fe3O4@SiO2-TbDPA from the aqueous solution. Our proposed strategy is expected to fabricate an organic-inorganic hybrid magnetic nanomaterial and can be used as an efficient sensor. It has been shown that this new strategy has numerous advantages, such as high stability, selectivity, and simplicity of operation. It demonstrates great potential for simple and convenient NO2− detection. It may expand to a variety of ranges in environmental monitoring and biomedical fields.
