Abstract
Hexavalent chromium is a highly toxic substance, which will pose a serious threat to human life and health and the entire ecosystem. Therefore, it is crucial to establish a simple and rapid detection method for hexavalent chromium. In this work, we fabricated bovine serum albumin-stabilized silver nanocluster (BSA-Ag13 NC) which exhibited photoresponsive oxidase-like activity, catalyzing the oxidation of colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to the blue oxidized state TMB (oxTMB) in a short time. Interestingly, 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) can significantly inhibit the color reaction of TMB oxidation while Cr(VI) can interact specifically with 8-HQ to restore this chromogenic reaction. Based on the above facts, a colorimetric sensing system for detecting Cr(VI) was developed. The sensing system shows a wide linear range, and good selectivity, with a low detection limit of 2.32 nM. Moreover, this sensing system could be successfully applied to the detection of Cr(VI) in lake water, tap water, and sewage with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Solvated mercuric ions (Hg2+), a toxic and harmful water pollutant, can easily accumulate in organisms and cause serious damage to the kidney, liver, and central nervous system. To realize rapid and efficient detection of mercury (II) ions in water sources, a kind of new colorimetric sensor of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with ribavirin (Rib-AuNPs) was proposed and characterized by TEM, DLS, XRD, and UV-vis in this work. The color of the Rib-AuNP solution rapidly changed from wine-red to gray-blue with the addition of Hg2+ based on the aggregation mechanism. The limits of detection (LODs) are 0.20 μM by the naked eye and 3.64 nM by UV-vis spectroscopy with a fine linear relationship in the range of 0-0.25 μM (R2 = 0.9834) and 0.25-0.80 μM (R2 = 0.9893) of Hg2+, indicating that the detection system of Rib-AuNPs could be applied to analyze Hg2+ with excellent selectivity and anti-interference in real water samples.

Abstract
The current work presents a perspective to obliterate toxic Hg(II) from an aqueous environment, a strategic environmental remediation and decontamination measure. We report a simple, efficient, and reusable solid-state visual sensing strategy for the selective detection and quantitative recovery of ultratrace Hg(II). The capture of Hg(II) ions was effectuated using a macro-/mesoporous polymer monolith uniformly decorated with an azo-based chromophoric ion receptor, i.e., 7-((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)diazenyl)quinolin-8-ol (BIDQ). The porous polymer template was synthesized through free radical polymerization of gylcidylmethacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, leading to distinct structural and surface properties that offer exclusive solid-state colorimetric selectivity for Hg(II) upon restricted spatial dispersion of the ion receptor. The sensor provides a broad linear response range of 1-200 μg/L, with an outstanding detection limit of 0.2 μg/L for Hg(II) ions, thus effectuating reliable and reproducible sensing. Optimizing analytical parameters such as solution pH, receptor concentration, sensor quantity, kinetics, temperature, and matrix interference proved to be promising for the real-time monitoring of toxic mercury ions from aqueous/industrial systems, with maximum response in the pH range of 7.5-8.0, with a response time of ≤80 s. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to study the electronic structure of BIDQ upon chelating with Hg(II) ions, using 6-311G and LAND2Z basis sets.

Abstract
Rapid and simple determination of mercury ion (Hg2+) in pharmaceuticals and soil samples is vital for human health and the environmental monitoring. Vertically-ordered mesoporous silica films (VMSF) supported by the indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode surface were prepared by electrochemically assisted self-assembly method and utilized for electrochemical detection of Hg2+. Owing to the negatively charged channel walls and ultrasmall pore diameter, VMSF displays obvious cationic selectivity and has highly electrostatic interaction for Hg2+, giving rise to the strong electrochemical signals. By recording the anodic stripping signals of adsorbed Hg2+ using differential pulse voltammetry, quantitative detection of Hg2+ was achieved with a wide linear range (0.2 μM–20 μM) and a low limit of detection (3 nM). Furthermore, considering the anti-fouling and anti-interference capacity of VMSF, the proposed VMSF/ITO sensor has been successfully applied to detect Hg2+ in pharmaceuticals and soil samples without tedious pretreatment processes of samples.

Abstract
In this work, an environmentally-friendly and cost-effective enzyme mimic was obtained by facile one-pot preparation of chitosan/Cu/Fe (CS/Cu/Fe) composite. This composite exhibited significantly enhanced oxidase-mimicking activity during catalyzing the oxidation of 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The CS/Cu/Fe composite was comprehensively characterized and the possible catalytic mechanism was reasonably explored and discussed. Benefiting from the thermal stability and the compatibility with carbohydrate, the CS/Cu/Fe composite was further integrated with agarose hydrogel to fabricate a portable analytical tube containing oxidase mimic. Based on the inhibition of the catalytic oxidation of TMB in the presence of cysteine, as well as the recovery of oxidase-like activity of CS/Cu/Fe due to the specific complexation of cysteine and mercury ion (Hg2+), the rapid colorimetric detection of Hg2+ was successfully carried out in the analytical tube. This colorimetric method showed good linear response to Hg2+ over the range from 40 nM to 8.0 μM with a detection limit of 8.9 nM. The method also revealed high selectivity and satisfactory results in recovery experiments of Hg2+ detection in tap water and lake water. Furthermore, it was found that the effective removal of Hg2+ could be realized in the analytical tube based on efficient Hg2+ adsorption by CS/Cu/Fe composite and agarose hydrogel. This study not only prepared a robust and low-cost enzyme mimic, but also proposed a smart strategy to simultaneously monitor and remove toxic Hg2+ from contaminated water.

Abstract
We report an inkjet-printed paper based colorimetric sensor with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using smartphone and color detector App for on-site determination of mercuric ion (Hg2+) from environmental water samples. The AgNPs printed on Whatman filter paper (No. 1) is employed for detection of Hg2+ which is reliant on the color change of NPs from yellow to discoloration depending on the concentration of target analyte in sample solution. The quantitative determination was performed by calculating the signal intensity of AgNPs on printed paper substrate after the introduction of Hg2+ using smartphone and RGB color detector. The mechanism for detection of Hg2+ on paper substrate is verified using UV-Vis spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and basic chemical assays. The linear range acquired for paper based colorimetric detection in the range of 40-1200 µgL-1 with limit of detection of 10 µgL-1. The results obtained using an inkjet-printed paper-based chemical sensor combined with a smartphone is validated with data of inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) measurement. The advantages of paper based detection are simple, rapid, economic and can be applied at the sample sources for determination of Hg2+.

Abstract
Noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) are ideal scaffolds for the fabrication of sensing devices because of their high surface-to-volume ratio combined with their unique optical and electrical properties which are extremely sensitive to changes in the environment. Such characteristics guarantee high sensitivity in sensing processes. Metal NPs can be decorated with ad hoc molecular building blocks which can act as receptors of specific analytes. By pursuing this strategy, and by taking full advantage of the specificity of supramolecular recognition events, highly selective sensing devices can be fabricated. Besides, noble metal NPs can also be a pivotal element for the fabrication of chemical nose/tongue sensors to target complex mixtures of analytes. This review highlights the most enlightening strategies developed during the last decade, towards the fabrication of chemical sensors with either optical or electrical readout combining high sensitivity and selectivity, along with fast response and full reversibility, with special attention to approaches that enable efficient environmental and health monitoring.

Abstract
The present study proposed a novel and highly selective and sensitive method for Ag+ ion detection based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) anti-aggregation. Thiamazole can induce AuNPs aggregation due to electrostatic interactions, which result in color transitions in the AuNPs solution from red to blue. However, the presence of Ag+ ions results in the preferential combination of the pyridinic nitrogen of thiamazole with the Ag+ ions. In addition, the Ag+ ions oxidize the sulfhydryl groups(-SH), which inhibit AuNPs aggregation and prompt a color change from blue to red. As a result, the present study established a method for Ag+ ion determination by AuNPs-thiamazole colorimetric probe based on the aforementioned anti-aggregation mechanism. The probe dynamic range was easily tuned via adjustments of the thiamazole amount. The relationship between the Ag+ concentration and AuNPs aggregation was monitored by ultraviolet-visible light (UV-Vis) spectroscopy at a dynamic range of 0.1 nM-9 μM and at a detection limit of 0.042 nM. The river water and tap water recovery analysis validated the successful operation of this colorimetric sensor in environmental monitoring.

Abstract
A practical and an efficient Schiff base fluorescent chemosensor, salicylidene-4-aminoantipyrinyl-4-aminophenol (A2) has been synthesized through the condensation procedure of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-(N-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-pyrazoline-5-one and 4-aminophenol. Compound A2 has displayed a considerable fluorescence enhancement with high selectivity and sensitivity toward Al3+ ion and exhibited an emission band at 484 nm, which contained a low detection limit (LOD) of 1.06 × 10-7 M. In accordance to the experimental study, DFT, TDDFT calculations, and the enhancement of fluorescence intensity might be attributed to the inhibition of Photoinduced Electron Transfer (PET) along with the Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer (ESIPT). As it has been specified by Job's plot and DFT calculations, the binding stoichiometries of A2 with Al3+ are 1:1, while the association constant (Ka) of Al3+ has been calculated and observed to be 2.67 × × 105 M-1. Furthermore, the binding behavior and sensing mechanism of A2 with Al3+ have been confirmed through the experiments of 1H NMR titration.

Abstract
A visual and sensitive Hg2+ detection strategy was developed based on split DNAzyme amplification and hemin-graphene oxide composites (H-GNs). Two split DNAzyme sequences can form two entire enzyme-strands DNA (E-DNA) by T-Hg2+-T interaction. The E-DNA can bind with the loop of molecular beacon (MB) to form Mg2+-dependent DNAzyme structure. The formed DNAzyme can circularly cleave the loop of MB, resulting large amount of DNA fragments. The resultant DNA fragments can prevent H-GNs from aggregation by adsorbing on its surface. Consequently, the supernate with large amount of H-GNs shows dark blue color after chromogenic reaction. This strategy shows a linear range from 50 pM to 1200 pM. The limit detection can be low to 33 pM. This strategy provides a visual and enzyme-free amplification mode for quick and sensitive screen of Hg2+.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium ion (Cr6+) is one of the most toxic substances for plants, for animals, and is a confirmed human respiratory carcinogen. However, so far, there are few independent and efficient colorimetric methods for detection of Cr6+. Here, we introduce a convenient, label-free, catalysis-based, and efficient strategy for quantification of Cr6+ by using a colorimetric sensing probe 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). In the presence of a trace amount of gold amalgam nanocomposites (Au@Hg) and Cr6+, TMB can be oxidized to oxTMB and the color changed to an intense blue that was observed by naked-eye and absorption spectroscopic method. In addition, the colorimetric method shows the high selectivity against 34 other interfering substances, and it can be performed at room temperature, in water, and requires only ∼5 min. Thus, the catalysis-based colorimetric assay for accurate and ultrahigh selective identification of Cr6+ will find widespread use in the world.

Abstract
2-((9H-fluoren-2-ylimino) methyl)phenol (F3) was synthesized by condensation reaction of 9H-fluoren-2-amine and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde in EtOH and characterized by its melting point, 1H-,13C NMR and molecular mass. F3 exhibits a high selectivity for detection of Cr3+ and Al3+ ions as a fluorescent chemosensor and showed a single emission band at 536nm upon excitation at 333nm according to fluorescence emission studies. The addition of Cr3+ and Al3+ make a significant increase in fluorescent intensity at 536nm in CH3CN, while other metal ions have almost no influence on the fluorescence. The fluorescence enhancement was attributed to the inhibited CN isomerization and the obstructed excited state intra-molecular proton transfer (ESIPT) of compound F3. Job's plot and DFT calculations data showed that the binding stoichiometries of F3 with Cr3+ and Al3+ are 2:1. The association constants (Ka) for Cr3+ and Al3+ were calculated and found to be 8.33×104M-1 and 5.44×104M-1, respectively. The detection limits were also calculated for Cr3+ and Al3+ and found to be 2.5×10-7mol/L and 3.1×10-7mol/L, respectively.

Abstract
Mercury poses a serious threat to human health and the ecosystem. Its pollution is still prevalent in developing areas, which calls for the development of a simple on-site method for Hg2+ detection. Plasmonic nanosensors for mercury, especially those based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), have been increasingly developed due to the flourish of nanotechnology in the last decade. However, the limitation on either selectivity or stability hindered their practical applications. Herein, by taking advantage of the unique optical properties of AuNPs and the versatility of M13 phages, a novel Hg2+ sensing strategy is proposed. AuNPs grew in situ on the surface of Hg2+-binding M13 phages at room temperature and the resulting AuNP-phage networks were directly used for mercury sensing. Hg2+ was selectively captured by M13 phages indwelling in the networks and gathered around AuNPs, followed by the reduction into Hg(0) and deposition on the AuNP surfaces, wherein it resulted in a blue shift of the SPR band of AuNPs and an increase in the absorbance. An LOD of 8 × 10-8 mol L-1 was achieved based on the quantification of the absorption ratio of AuNPs at 525 and 650 nm. As the Hg2+ recognition was double guaranteed by the capture of Hg2+-binding phages as well as the unique affinity between mercury and gold, the sensing system showed a high selectivity and a superior interference tolerance capability, facilitating its practical applications in environmental water bodies without deterioration of the sensing performance.

Abstract
The development of simple and cost-effective methods for the detection and treatment of Hg2+ in the environment is an important area of research due to the serious health risk that Hg2+ poses to humans. Colorimetric sensing based on the induced aggregation of nanoparticles is of great interest since it offers a low cost, simple, and relatively rapid procedure, making it perfect for on-site analysis. Herein we report the development of a simple colorimetric sensor for the selective detection and estimation of mercury ions in water, based on chitosan stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (PDA). In the presence of Hg2+, PDA induces the aggregation of AuNPs, causing the solution to change colors varying from red to blue, depending on the concentration of Hg2+. The formation of aggregated AuNPs in the presence of Hg2+ was confirmed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The method exhibits linearity in the range of 300nM to 5μM and shows excellent selectivity towards Hg2+ among seventeen different metal ions and was successfully applied for the detection of Hg2+ in spiked river water samples. The developed technique is simple and superior to the existing techniques in that it allows detection of Hg2+ using the naked eye and simple and rapid colorimetric analysis, which eliminates the need for sophisticated instruments and sample preparation methods.

Abstract
This paper describes an innovative procedure for the fabrication of a facile colorimetric sensor in one step with thiol functional group for Hg(2+) detection at trace level. The sensor was successfully synthesized via chitosan isothiouronium salt intermediate with innocuous low cost thiourea reagent under microwave irradiation. It is an innovative green approach to achieve thiol functionalization with a high degree of substitution. Thiomer was characterized by titrimetry, FTIR, (1)H NMR, elemental analysis (CHNS), and EDX for extent of modification with detail structure. The synthesized and well characterized thiomer was screened for sensor application. The sensing solution of thiomer resulted in an instantaneous sharp color change from colorless, yellow, to brown with increase in Hg(2+) concentration. Chitosan thiomer also exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for Hg(2+) over other possible interfering ions in aqueous media. The sensing responses were visualized quantitatively with quick response, good selectivity, high sensitivity, and a low detection limit of ∼0.465 ppb by the naked eye. The same was tested with a paper strip method for technological applications. Furthermore, the as-prepared sensors also exhibited exceptional sorption potential for Hg(2+) even from ultralow concentration aqueous solution and reduced the Hg(2+) concentration from 10 ppb to the extremely low level of ∼0.04 ppb as studied by cyclic voltammetry. Thus, the proposed method is simple, promising, and rapid without any complicated modifying step and is an economical alternative to traditional Hg(2+) sensors for rapid sensor application in environmental water samples at ppb levels.

Abstract
A colorimetric assay is proposed for the selective detection of Cr(iii) and Cr(vi) via the aggregation-induced color change of gallic acid capped gold nanoparticles (GA-AuNPs). The AuNPs are characterized using UV-vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR). To detect Cr(iii) and Cr(vi) coexisting in a sample, citrate and thiosulfate were applied to mask Cr(vi) for the detection of Cr(iii), and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA) was applied to mask Cr(iii) for the detection of Cr(vi). At optimized experimental conditions, the selectivity of these AuNPs-based detection systems is excellent for Cr(iii) and/or Cr(vi) compared with other types of metal ions. The limit of detections (LODs) of a mixture of Cr(iii) and Cr(vi), Cr(iii) and Cr(vi) by eye vision are 1.5, 1.5 and 2 μM, respectively, and those by UV-vis spectroscopy are 0.05, 0.1 and 0.1 μM, respectively. The minimum detectable concentrations for Cr(iii) or Cr(vi) are all below the guideline value set by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The applicability of the AuNPs-based colorimetric sensor is also validated by the detection of Cr(iii) and Cr(vi) in electroplating wastewater and real water samples with high recoveries.

Abstract
The reaction between MO and NaBH4 catalyzed by Ag NPs has been studied. Ag NPs catalyzed the reduction of MO rapidly, while adding CTAB into the solution caused the regeneration of MO. Thus, reversible catalysis for the reaction between MO and NaBH4 by Ag NPs was discovered for the first time.
