Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is a major global health problem, with ≈20-25% of patients overexpressing human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), an aggressive marker, yet access to early detection and treatment varies across countries. A low-cost, equipment-free, and easy-to-use polydiacetylene (PDA)-based colorimetric sensor is developed for HER2-overexpressing cancer detection, designed for use in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). PDA nanoparticles are first prepared through thin-film hydration. Subsequently, hydrophilic magnetic nanoparticles and HER2 antibodies are sequentially conjugated to them. The synthesized HER2-MPDA can be concentrated and separated by a magnetic field while inheriting the optical characteristics of PDA. The specific binding of HER2 antibody in HER2-MPDA to HER2 receptor in HER2-overexpressing exosomes causes a blue-to-red color change by altering the molecular structure of the PDA backbone. This colorimetric sensor can simultaneously separate and detect HER2-overexpressing exosomes. HER2-MPDA can detect HER2-overexpressing exosomes in the culture medium of HER2-overexpressing BC cells and in mouse urine samples from a HER2-overexpressing BC mouse model. It can selectively isolate and detect only HER2-overexpressing exosomes through magnetic separation, and its detection limit is found to be 8.5 × 108 particles mL-1 . This colorimetric sensor can be used for point-of-care diagnosis of HER2-overexpressing BC in LMICs.

Abstract
The removal of toxic heavy metals from wastewater through the use of novel adsorbents is expensive. The challenge arises after the heavy metal is removed by the adsorbent, and the fate of the adsorbent is not taken care of. This may create secondary pollution. The study aimed to prepare mesoporous carbon (MC) from macadamia nutshells coated with titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) using a hydrothermal method to remove Pb2+ and to test the effectiveness of reusing the lead-loaded spent adsorbent (Pb2+-MC/TiO2 NP nanocomposite) in blood fingerprint detection. The samples were characterized using SEM, which confirmed spherical and flower-like structures of the nanomaterials, whereas TEM confirmed a particle size of 5 nm. The presence of functional groups such as C and Ti and a crystalline size of 4 nm were confirmed by FTIR and XRD, respectively. The surface area of 1283.822 m2/g for the MC/TiO2 NP nanocomposite was examined by BET. The removal of Pb2+ at pH 4 and the dosage of 1.6 g/L with the highest percentage removal of 98% were analyzed by ICP-OES. The Langmuir isotherm model best fit the experimental data, and the maximum adsorption capacity of the MC/TiO2 NP nanocomposite was 168.919 mg/g. The adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The ΔH° (-54.783) represented the exothermic nature, and ΔG° (-0.133 to -4.743) indicated that the adsorption process is spontaneous. In the blood fingerprint detection, the fingerprint details were more visible after applying the Pb2+-MC/TiO2 NP nanocomposite than before the application. The reuse application experiments showed that the Pb2+-MC/TiO2 NP nanocomposite might be a useful alternative material for blood fingerprint enhancement when applied on nonporous surfaces, eliminating secondary pollution.

Abstract
The contamination of tetracycline antibiotics and dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4−) in food and the environment is one of the major concerns for human health. Herein, a water-stable carboxyl-functionalized europium metal–organic framework (Eu-MOF) was prepared and demonstrated, for the first time, as a dual-responsive fluorescent sensor of tetracycline antibiotics (oxytetracycline (OTC), tetracycline (TC), and doxycycline (DOX)) and H2PO4−via fluorescent turn-on and turn-off, respectively. Eu-MOF presents a sensitive and selective detection of OTC with a rapid response time (1 min) and good anti-interference ability. The limits of detection (LODs) of 78 nm, 225 nm, and 201 nM were achieved for OTC, TC, and DOX, respectively. Coordination and hydrogen bonding led to energy and electron transfer from the TC to the MOF, contributing to the fluorescent enhancement mechanism. Moreover, Eu-MOF can effectively detect H2PO4−via fluorescence turn-off with a LOD of 0.70 μM. The interactions between H2PO4− and MOF interrupt the energy transfer from ligand to MOF, leading to fluorescence quenching. In addition, Eu-MOF was successfully applied to determine OTC and H2PO4− in real samples, obtaining satisfactory recoveries and RSDs. More fascinating, Eu-MOF could be utilized to develop latent fingerprints on various surfaces, providing well-defined fluorescent fingerprint details in which the sweat pores can be seen with the naked eye. Water-stable Eu-MOF as a fluorescent probe for detecting tetracycline antibiotics and dihydrogen phosphate in real samples and visualization of latent fingerprints.![]()

Abstract
Rationally developing an intelligent tool for high-contrast fluorescence imaging of latent fingerprints (LFPs) is gaining much concern in many applications such as medical diagnostics and forensic investigations. Herein, the off-on fluorescent polymer micelles (PMs) have been rationally designed and synthesized for high-contrast fluorescence imaging of LFPs through the cross-linking reaction of hydrazine (N2H4) and aldehyde group of polymer. Excitingly, the cross-linking (N2H4) induced emission of PMs has the property of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), which could effectively address the notorious aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effects of conventional organic dyes. In addition, the cross-linking strategy can not only improve structural stability of PMs but also enhance its fluorescence brightness. The experiment results demonstrated that PMs showed high water dispersibility (100% aqueous solution), high selectivity, large Stokes shift (∼150 nm), good photostability, and excellent long-term stability. Because of the hydrophobic interaction between the PMs and fingerprint components, the PMs preferentially adhered onto the ridges of fingerprint, and then cross-linking (N2H4) induced emission properties endowed the PMs for high-contrast imaging of LFPs in different substrates, especially the levels 1-3 details of LFPs. We expect that this strategy will provide vital support for LFPs technology.

Abstract
The successful topochemical polymerization of bis(selenocyanatomethyl)butadyine 1 is achieved upon association in a 1 : 1 co-crystal with 1,2-bis(2-pyridyl)ethylene (2-bpen) through strong and linear (NC)-Se⋅⋅⋅NPy chalcogen bonding (ChB) interactions, allowing for an appropriate parallel alignment of the diacetylene moieties toward the solid-state reaction. Co-crystal 1⋅(2-bpen) undergoes polymerization upon heating at 100 °C. The reaction progress was monitored by IR, DSC and PXRD. An enhancement of the polymer conductivity by 8 orders of magnitude is observed upon iodine doping. Strikingly, the course of polymerization is accompanied with sublimation of the ChB acceptor molecules 2-bpen, providing the polymer in a pure form with full recovery of the co-former, at variance with the usual hydrogen-bonded co-crystal strategies toward polydiacetylenes.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission based organic heterocyclic luminogens bearing conjugated electronic structures showed much attention due to its excellent fluorescence in aggregation state. In this communication, a novel conjugated blue light emitting imidazole molecule is synthesized by one pot multicomponent reaction route is reported for the first time. The prepared molecule exhibits a strong fluorescence in aggregation state with exceptional properties, such as high purity, inexpensive, eco-friendly, large scale production, high photostability, etc. By considering these advantages, a new fluorescence based platform has been setup for in-situ visualization of latent fingerprints and its preservation by spray method followed by Poly(vinyl alcohol) masking. A clear and well defined fluorescence fingerprint images are noticed on variety of surfaces by revealing level 1-3 ridge features upon ultraviolet 365 nm light exposure. The dual nature of binding specificity as well as excellent fluorescence properties permits the visualization of latent fingerprints for longer durations (up to 365 days) with superior contrast, high sensitivity, efficiency, selectivity and minimal background hindrance. We further fabricated unclonable invisible security ink for various printing modes on valuable goods for protection against forging. The developed labels are displaying uniform distribution of ink and exceptional stability under various atmospheric environments. The development of long preservative information using aggregation-induced emission based luminogen opens up a new avenue in advanced forensic and data security applications.

Abstract
We developed a water-soluble, stable and selective "turn-on" fluorescence sensing platform based on carbon quantum dots (CQDs) for rapid determination of phosphate (Pi) in aqueous solutions and for visualization of latent fingerprints on paper. The hydroxyl groups on the surface of the synthesized CQDs can be deprotonated by Pi to trigger the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process and the inhibition of excited-state proton transfer (ESPT), achieving a turn-on emission response. CQDs demonstrated the capability to selectively detect Pi over other common ions and biomolecules with the linear fluorescence intensity change in the range from 0 to 100 μM. Moreover, the paper sprayed with the CQD solution showed a remarkable blue emission speckle and a fingerprint upon addition of Pi solution and finger touching, respectively. Notably, the fingerprint images including level 3 details (crossover, bifurcation, termination, and island and sweat pores) are also clearly identified and distinguished, indicating their potential application in document security. We believe that the as-synthesized CQDs will provide a new tool for Pi detection in aqueous media and paper document security.

Abstract
Both latent sebaceous and blood fingerprints may provide valuable information for forensic investigation. To detect both types of fingerprints with no need to predistinguish them, a new adaptive developing strategy was proposed. A cationic conjugated polymer with poly[p-(phenylene ethylene)-alt-(thienylene ethynylene)] backbone (PPETE-NMe3+) was synthesized, which was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) to form the developing solution. Fingerprints were developed by a simple dropping and incubating process without any pre-/post-treatments. Fluorescent photographs of the developed fingerprints on various substrates demonstrated that this developing strategy was effective for both types of fingerprints on nonporous substrates. Gray value analysis further confirmed the enhancement of the legibility of the fingerprint images. The preliminary mechanism exploration suggested that certain weak interactions, such as hydrophobic interaction and electrostatic interaction, may synergistically contribute to the interaction between the polymer and fingerprint components. The molecular design of the polymer combined with an appropriate solvent endowed the developing system the adaptiveness toward different types of fingerprints. This adaptive developing strategy made the fingerprint-developing process more efficient and may be further extended to more practical application scenes.

Abstract
Topochemical polymerizations are solid-state reactions driven by the alignment of monomers in the crystalline state. The molecular confinement in the monomer crystal lattice offers precise control over the tacticity, packing and crystallinity of the polymer formed in the topochemical reaction. As topochemical reactions occur under solvent- and catalyst-free conditions, giving products in high yield and selectivity/specificity that do not require tedious chromatographic purification, topochemical polymerizations are highly attractive over traditional solution-phase polymer synthesis. By this method, polymers having sophisticated structures and desired topologies can be availed. Often, such ordered packing confers attractive properties to the topochemically-synthesized polymers. Diverse categories of topochemical polymerizations are known, such as polymerizations via [2+2], [4+4], [4+2], and [3+2] cycloadditions, and polymerization of diynes, triynes, dienes, trienes, and quinodimethanes, each of which proceed under suitable stimuli like heat, light or pressure. Each class of these reactions requires a unique packing arrangement of the corresponding monomers for the smooth reaction and produces polymers with distinct properties. This review is penned with the intent of bringing all the types of topochemical polymerizations into a single platform and communicating the versatility of these lattice-controlled polymerizations. We present a brief history of the development of each category and comprehensively review the topochemical synthesis of fully-organic polymers reported in the last twenty years, particularly in crystals. We mainly focus on the various molecular designs and crystal engineering strategies adopted to align monomers in a suitable orientation for polymerization. Finally, we analyze the current challenges and future perspectives in this research field.

Abstract
Polydiacetylenes are prepared from amphiphilic diacetylenes first through self-assembly and then polymerization. Different from common supramolecular assemblies, polydiacetylenes have stable structure and very special optical properties such as absorption, fluorescence, and Raman. The hydrophilic head of PDAs is easy to be chemically modified with functional groups for detection and imaging applications. PDAs will undergo a specific color change from blue to red, fluorescence enhancement and Raman spectrum changes in the presence of receptor ligands. These properties allow PDA-based sensors to have high sensitivity and specificity during analysis. Therefore, the PDAs have been widely used for detection of viruses, bacteria, proteins, antibiotics, hormones, sialic acid, metal ions and as probes for bioimaging in recent years. In this review, the preparation, polymerization, and detection mechanisms of PDAs are discussed, and some representative research advances in the field of bio-detection and bioimaging are highlighted.

Abstract
Latent fingerprints (LFPs) are important evidence in crime scenes and forensic investigations, but they are invisible to the naked eye. In this work, a novel fluorescent probe was developed by integrating a narrow-band-emitting green afterglow phosphor, SrGa12O19:Mn2+ (SGO:Mn), and ethyl cellulose (EC) for the efficient visualization of LFPs. The hydrophobic interactions between the powder and lipid-rich LFPs made the ridge structures more defined and easily identifiable. The background fluorescence of the substrates was completely avoided because of the time-gated fluorescence of the afterglow phosphor. All the three levels of LFP degrees were clearly imaged due to the high sensitivity. Moreover, the SGO:Mn-EC powder was highly stable in neutral, acidic, and alkaline environments. In addition, 60 day-aged LFPs were successfully visualized by the powder. All performances showed that this strategy for LFP recognition has merits such as low cost, non-destructive nature, reliability, superior universality, and legible details. Together, these results show the great application prospects of this powder in forensic identification and criminal investigation.

Abstract
Chromic dyes responding against external stimuli are useful in various field of applications especially to colorimetric sensors. However, there have been several limitations in generic application because of its cost, stability and reliability. Here, we introduced highly functionalizable polymeric materials as a supporter covalently modified with controlled amount of chromic dyes. The photochromic organic dye (spiropyran) and highly functional thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) have been adopted as a representative example. Conventional polymeric solution processes such as film processing, wet-spinning, electrospinning and ink-writing are readily applicable because dye-TPU maintains its own solubility in various organic solvents. Additionally, since the concentration of dye on TPU are precisely controllable, these dye-TPU solution can be adopted in broad range of specific applications, such as secret coding, smart fabric, and chromic polymeric film layer.

Abstract
Fluorescence color of rare earth-based nanopowder can be modulated by regulating the molar ratio of components, which offers a promising strategy in many fields of applications. Herein, a series of binuclear Eu xTb1- x(AA)3Phen ( x = 1, 0.75, 0.5, 0.25, 0.1, 0) complexes were fabricated using acrylic acid (AA) as the first ligand and using 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) as the second ligand. The characterization results showed that this novel binuclear (Eu, Tb) complex can emit strong red or green light via simply varying the molar ratio of europium and terbium. Moreover, the results of spectroscopic and zeta potential analyses suggested that there was an electrostatic adherence mode in the interaction between the Eu xTb1- x(AA)3Phen complex and fingerprint residues. Importantly, our Eu xTb1- x(AA)3Phen nanopowder was successfully applied to the enhanced development of latent fingerprints on various surfaces by the powder dusting method, exhibiting a high contrast, sensitivity, and selectivity, as well as a low detection limit in forensic science, which was further confirmed by analysis with an automatic fingerprint identification system. In summary, our synthetic rare earth-based nanopowder exhibits promise as an ideal fluorescent probe for the enhanced development of latent fingerprints, based not only on physical absorption at the macrolevel but also on electrostatic interactions between our rare earth complex and fingerprint residues at the molecular level, which could provide an enhanced affinity compared with traditional fingerprint powders.

Abstract
Rapid, simple and highly sensitive identification of latent fingerprints (LFPs) is an important issue related to national security and recognition of potential crimes. Here, we synthesize a series of covalent organic polymers (COPs) with colorful fluorescence (from blue to green, pale yellow, bright yellow, and red) and further investigate their performance for fluorescence imaging of LFPs. Results indicate that the COP materials can be used as fluorescence probes to rapidly visualize the precision substructure of LFPs within 5 s by simply spraying method, and tunable fluorescent color makes the COP probes have a high contrast and low interference for fluorescence imaging of LFPs on different substrates (including glass slides, paper, aluminum foil, plastic, ironware) in different backgrounds. We also further reveal the mechanism of COP probes for fluorescence imaging of LFPs. Importantly, the COP probes show high stability and could successfully achieve the fluorescence imaging for LFPs after aged for 45 days or washed by water. In short, this is the first report on the porous polymers for fluorescence imaging of LFPs and expected that it can be also applied to the fluorescence imaging of other fields.

Abstract
Fluorescent micro- and nanosized particles have a broad range of applications in biology, medicine, and engineering. For these uses, the materials should have high emission efficiency and good photostability. However, many organic fluorophores suffer from aggregation-induced quenching effects and photobleaching. Here, we used a simple method based on covalently blending a fluorescent conjugated oligomer with silica nanoparticles to achieve emission quantum yields as high as 97%. The resulting system also showed excellent stability under continuous light illumination, in a range of pH values and temperatures, and in common solvents. This fluorescent material showed outstanding properties, including highly efficient blue emission, low cost, low toxicity, and easy synthesis. Furthermore, its effectiveness for latent fingerprint detection was demonstrated as a proof of concept on various substrates. The obtained emissive fingerprint powder gave good optical/fluorescent images with high contrast and resolution between the ridges and spaces.

Abstract
The development of highly efficient latent fingerprint (LFP) technology remains extremely vital for forensic and criminal investigations. In this contribution, a straightforward, rapid, and cost-effective method has been established for the quick development of well-preserved latent fingerprint on multiple substrates, including plastic, glass, aluminum foil, metallic surfaces, and so forth, without any additional treatment, based on aggregation-induced enhanced emission-active conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) 3,3'-((2-(4-(1,2-diphenyl-2-(p-tolyl)vinyl)phenyl)-7-(7-methylbenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-yl)-9H-fluorene-9,9-diyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl))bis(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) bromide, revealing clearly the third-level details (ridges, bifurcations, and pores) with high selectivity, high contrast, and no background interference even by blood stains, confirming the ability of the proposed technique for LFP detection with high resolution. The LFP development process was accomplished simply by immersing fingerprint-loaded substrate into the CPE solution for ∼1 min, followed by shaking off the residual polymer solution and then air drying. The CPE was readily transferred to the LFPs because of the strong electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction between the CPE molecules and the fingerprint components revealing distinct fluorescent images on various smooth nonporous surfaces.

Abstract
It is of essential importance to visualize latent fingerprint (LFP) and analyze the compounds therein. For this purpose, various approaches have been developed but suffer from low imaging and/or detection efficiency. Most importantly, most of them require a necessary in-solution process and thus are not applicable to LFPs on bulky or water-sensitive substrates. In this work, we report an all-dry method to achieve simultaneous visualization and transfer of LFP and enhanced Raman analysis of multiple species therein. In this innovative approach, polydopamine (PDA) film-coated poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) flake with dense plasmonic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@PDA@PDMS) was applied to cover the substrate carrying LFP. After gentle separation, the AgNPs@PDA film was transferred from PDMS to the LFP ridges to visualize a positive LFP pattern on the substrate, leaving behind a complementary (negative) LFP pattern on the PDMS flake. The compounds in the LFP were further analyzed via the AgNP-enhanced Raman technique. This approach enables high-contrast and full-feature visualization and transfer of LFP on arbitrary nonporous substrates and facilitates sensitive Raman analysis of multiple species in the sweat and thus promises great potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) nanoparticles in aqueous colloidal solution have been prepared via a modified Wessling method, with the addition of surfactant. The fluorescent colloidal solution was used as the developing solution to develop the fingerprints on different substrates. The developing process was accomplished simply by immersing the substrates into developing solution and then taking out, followed by rinsing with deionized water. The initial study about the fingerprints on the adhesive tapes showed that the developing solution is very effective in fluorescence development on both fresh and aged visible fingerprints; and such an effect was negligibly affected by treating the fingerprints with water or other organic solvents, whether before developing or after. Further study on latent fingerprints (LFPs) demonstrated that PPV nanoparticles in colloidal solution have high sensitivity in developing fingerprints to give very clearly fluorescent patterns. At least 6 months of storage of the colloidal solution did not reduce the developing effect; and each developing solution (3.6 mg/mL, 5.0 mL) can be used to develop at least 30 fingerprints without sacrificing the legibility of the pattern. The preliminary mechanism investigation suggested that selectivity achieved toward the ridge of the fingerprint is very likely due to the affinity between PPV molecules and oily secretions of the fingerprints. Digital magnification of the developed fingerprints provided more details about the fingerprint.
