Abstract
Cancer is still one of the deadliest diseases, and diagnosing and treating it effectively remains difficult. As a result, advancements in earlier detection and better therapies are urgently needed. Conventional chemotherapy induces chemoresistance, has non-specific toxicity, and has a meager efficacy. Natural materials like nanosized clay mineral formations of various shapes (platy, tubular, spherical, and fibrous) with tunable physicochemical, morphological, and structural features serve as potential templates for these. As multifunctional biocompatible nanocarriers with numerous applications in cancer research, diagnosis, and therapy, their submicron size, individual morphology, high specific surface area, enhanced adsorption ability, cation exchange capacity, and multilayered organization of 0.7-1 nm thick single sheets have attracted significant interest. Kaolinite, halloysite, montmorillonite, laponite, bentonite, sepiolite, palygorskite, and allophane are the most typical nanoclay minerals explored for cancer. These multilayered minerals can function as nanocarriers to effectively carry a variety of anticancer medications to the tumor site and improve their stability, dispersibility, sustained release, and transport. Proteins and DNA/RNA can be transported using nanoclays with positive and negative surfaces. The platform for phototherapeutic agents can be nanoclays. Clays with bio-functionality have been developed using various surface engineering techniques, which could help treat cancer. The promise of nanoclays as distinctive crystalline materials with applications in cancer research, diagnostics, and therapy are examined in this review.

Abstract
A novel multicolor fluorescent nano-probe based on the hybridization of Tb3+ ion with gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) was synthesized to monitor and on-site visual assay of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA), a biomarker of bacterial spores. DPA can replace the water molecule in the center of Tb3+ and strongly coordinate with Tb3+ based on the analyte-triggered antenna effect. Simultaneously, the red fluorescence of Au NCs is not influenced after addition of DPA and can be used as steady inside fluorescence reference channel to measure background noise. On this basis, the multicolor fluorescence nano-probe based on Tb3+-doped Au NCs for fast analysis of DPA was fabricated. The linear range of this method is 0 to 12.5 μM and the limit of detection is 3.4 nM, which is well below the quantity of DPA concentration of 60 μM released by the spore transmission dose of anthrax infection. The proposed multicolor fluorescence nano-probe was successfully detecting DPA in actual sample with good sensitivity and specificity. In addition, the visual paper-based nano-probe is designed to detect DPA by using the color scanning application of smart phone. This developed platform possesses abroad application prospects with advantages of effective, convenient carrying, simple operation, good selectivity and repeatability.

Abstract
The Metallacrowns (MCs) composed of repeated [Metal-N-O] subunits are a type of new material, but the MCs have not been developed and utilized in analytical applications. This essay reports on a new kind of terbium(III)-based Metallacrowns (Tb-MCs) with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) feature to build a sensing platform. It is first time that Tb-MCs are able to aggregate to larger aggregates in water along with a bright green emission, so that the property makes it possible to apply in biosensing. Thereafter, the AIE of Tb-MCs can be quenched effectively by Cu2+. Based on the high affinity of thiol to Cu2+, cysteine (Cys) recovers the fluorescence of Tb-MCs in the presence of Cu2+. There is a good linear range varying from 0.02 to 20 μM with a low limit of detection (LOD) 9.67 nM of Cys. In the end, this novel probe is also successfully applied to the determination of Cys in human serum with satisfactory results.

Ratiometric fluorescence detection of anthrax biomarker based on terbium (III) functionalized graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets. Talanta 2021; 230:122311. [PMID: 33934776 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2021.122311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Revised: 03/10/2021] [Accepted: 03/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Detection of anthrax biomarker dipicolinic acid (DPA) is of great importance upon the crisis of bioterrorism. Development of fluorescent materials for DPA detection, particularly one that fully depends on single luminescent response, faces the challenge of being susceptible to interferences. The accompanying accuracy problems offer great opportunities for the establishment of more reliable ratiometric analysis method. Herein, a ratiometric fluorescent probe based on terbium functionalized graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (Tb-g-C3N4NS) is attempted for quantitative detection of DPA to address the distinct function of g-C3N4NS as both carrier and reference fluorophore, which is a so-far unexplored option in fluorescent detection approaches. We achieve the incorporation of Tb3+ into framework of g-C3N4NS by using a simple synthetic strategy comprised of thermal pyrolysis and ultrasonic exfoliation. Combining the reference signal over g-C3N4NS at 440 nm (I440) with the response signal of Tb3+ at 546 nm (I546), concentration of DPA can be easily calculated via its linear correlation with the intensity ratio (I546/I440), giving a precise measurement towards DPA with a detection limit as low as 9.9 nM. Besides enabling an excellent self-calibrating detection of DPA, this work also inspires broader use of g-C3N4NS for relevant process.

A smartphone-integrated multicolor fluorescence probe of bacterial spore biomarker: The combination of natural clay material and metal-organic frameworks.

Abstract
The metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) functionalized palygorskite (Pal) hybrid as a novel multicolor fluorescence probe for the detection of bacterial spore biomarker-dipicolinic acid (DPA), had been prepared via in-situ growth. The MOFs can effectively encapsulate dye molecules on the surface of Pal, and the rich carboxyl groups on its surface can coordinate with europium ions (Eu3+), forming a highly sensitive recognition group. The results indicated that the limit of detection (LOD) of this multicolor fluorescence probe was as low as 9.3 nM and was obviously lower than the amount of anthrax spores infecting the human body (60 μM). Moreover, a wide linear range from 0 to 35 μM was obtained. The high specific surface area of Pal, as well as the permanent porosity and suitable binding sites of Eu3+-doped MOFs may play a major role in the sensitivity and linear detection range. The multicolor fluorescence strategy made full use of the diversity of fluorescence signals collected by dye molecules and lanthanide ions, which can realize the real-time and on-site detection through the smartphone with a color-scanning application (APP). The practicability of this probe was further verified by detecting DPA released by non-infectious Bacillus subtilis.

Abstract
In this study, we present the synthesis of cationic brush-type polyelectrolytes and their use in the stabilization of GdPO4 particles in aqueous media. Polymers of various compositions were synthesized via the RAFT polymerization route. SEC equipped with triple detection (RI, DP, RALS, and LALS) was used to determine the molecular parameters (Mn, Mw, Mw/Mn). The exact composition of synthesized polymers was determined using NMR spectroscopy. Cationic brush-type polymers were used to improve the stability of aqueous GdPO4 particle dispersions. First, the IEPs of GdPO4 particles with different morphologies (nanorods, hexagonal nanoprisms, and submicrospheres) were determined by measuring the zeta potential of bare particle dispersions at various pH values. Afterward, cationic brush-type polyelectrolytes with different compositions were used for the surface modification of GdPO4 particles (negatively charged in alkaline media under a pH value of ∼10.6). The concentration and composition effects of used polymers on the change in particle surface potential and stability (DLS measurements) in dispersions were investigated and presented in this work. The most remarkable result of this study is redispersible GdPO4 nanoparticle colloids with increased biocompatibility and stability as well as new insights into possible cationic brush-type polyelectrolyte applicability in both scientific and commercial fields.
