Abstract
There is a need to develop simple and effective strategies for the rapid detection of heavy metal ions (HMIs) in order to protect the environment and human health. A simple fluorescent sensor array based on a single cucurbit[5]uril-truxene probe was proposed to simultaneously identify five HMIs (Pb2+, Cu2+, Ag+, Fe2+ and Fe3+). This probe was synthesized using monohydroxyl cucurbit[5]uril and monobromohexyl truxene by a substitution reaction between them. It could be observed that the fluorescence response of this synthesized probe to HMIs was closely related to the pH of the aqueous solution, exhibiting different fluorescence intensities at pH 3.0, 7.0, and 9.0. Based on this phenomenon, a fluorescent sensor array based on a single cucurbit[5]uril-truxene probe was then constructed by simply altering the pH in the sensor element. These unique fluorescence responses were analyzed using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to identify metal ions. A concentration limit classification of 0.1 μM was applied to the above five HMIs. Moreover, the quantification of metal ions was implemented even at low concentrations of 48-121 nM. This array showed good results in the recognition of metal ions in real water samples (lake water and tap water samples), which shows its broad application prospects in many fields, including monitoring of the environmental water quality and so on.

Abstract
The simultaneous detection of multiple quaternary ammonium pesticides (QAPs) in water is a challenge due to their high solubility in water and similar structures. In this paper, we have developed a quadruple-channel supramolecular fluorescence sensor array for the simultaneous analysis of five QAPs, including paraquat (PQ), diquat (DQ), difenzoquat (DFQ), mepiquat (MQ), and chlormequat (CQ). Not only were QAP samples of different concentrations (10, 50, and 300 μM) in water distinguished with 100% accuracy but also single QAP and binary QAP mixed samples (DFQ-DQ) were sensitively quantified. Our experimental interference study confirmed that the developed array has good anti-interference ability. The array can quickly identify five QAPs in river and tap water samples. In addition, it also qualitatively detected QAP residues in Chinese cabbage and wheat seedlings extract. This array has rich output signals, low cost, easy preparation, and simple technology, demonstrating great potential in environmental analysis.

Abstract
An acid-sensitive carbon dot fluorescence sensing array was investigated for the differentiated recognition of distilled spirits. Due to the electrostatic interactions between CDs and organic acids, organic acids affect the protonation and fluorescence properties of CDs, which in turn modify the CDs triple fluorescence emission. The regular linear variation of the fluorescence sensor was found under acidic conditions (3.0 < pH < 6.2). A comprehensive study of acids with selectivity, different concentrations (0.1 mM, 1 mM, 10 mM, 40 mM), different types (8 species) and mixed acids (formic acid and acetic acid), and good quantification capability for acetic acid (0.01-1 mM). Demonstrating good recognition ability of the sensor array for complex analyte. On this basis, the fluorescence sensor array was applied to the classification and recognition of liquors. LDA has realized the identification of 16 kinds of Baijiu and 21 kinds of distilled liquors with an accuracy of 100%.
