Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA), a mycotoxin found in various food items, possesses significant health risks due to its carcinogenic and toxic properties. Thus, detecting OTA is crucial to ensure food safety. Among the reported analytical methods, there has yet to be one that achieves fast, selective, and portable detection of OTA. In this study, we explore a novel supramolecular sensor, DOCE@ALB, utilizing human serum albumin as the host and a flavonoid fluorescent indicator as the guest. On the basis of indicator displacement assay, this sensor boasts an ultra-fast response time of just 5 s, high sensitivity with a limit of detection at 0.39 ppb, exceptional selectivity, and a noticeable ratiometric fluorescence response to OTA. This discernible color change and portability of the sensor make it suitable for on-site OTA detection in real food samples, including flour, beer, and wine, simply using a smartphone. In comparison to previously reported methods, our approach has showcased notable advantages in both response time and portability, addressing a critical need for food safety and regulatory compliance.

Simple, sensitive, colorimetric detection of pyrophosphate via the analyte-triggered decomposition of metal-organic frameworks regulating their adaptive multi-color Tyndall effect. Anal Bioanal Chem 2024; 416:1821-1832. [PMID: 38363308 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-024-05200-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
This paper describes initially the application of the Tyndall effect (TE) of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials as a colorimetric signaling strategy for the sensitive detection of pyrophosphate ion (PPi). The used MOF NH2-MIL-101(Fe) was prepared with Fe3+ ions and fluorescent ligands of 2-amino terephthalic acid (NH2-BDC). The fluorescence of NH2-BDC in MOF is quenched due to the ligand-to-metal charge transfer effect, while the NH2-MIL-101(Fe) suspension shows a strong TE. In the presence of PPi analyte, the MOFs will undergo decomposition because of the competitive binding of Fe3+ by PPi over NH2-BDC, resulting in a significant decrease in the TE signal and fluorescence restoration from the released ligands. The results demonstrate that the new method only requires a laser pointer pen (for TE creation) and a smartphone (for portable quantitative readout) to detect PPi in a linear concentration range of 1.25-800 μM, with a detection limit of ~210 nM (3σ) which is ~38 times lower than that obtained from traditional fluorescence with a spectrophotometer (linear concentration range, 50-800 µM; detection limit, 8.15 µM). Moreover, the acceptable recovery of PPi in several real samples (i.e., pond water, black tea, and human serum and urine) ranges from 97.66 to 119.15%.

Screening of natural inhibitors against peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 from herbal extracts by a high-performance liquid chromatography ultraviolet-visible based method. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1716:464643. [PMID: 38232639 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.464643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 01/01/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
Peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is an important biocatalytic enzymes involved in the conversion of protein arginine to citrulline, its dysregulation has a great impact on many physiological processes. Recently, PAD4 has emerged as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of various diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCMs), also known as herbal plants, have gained great attention by the scientific community due to their good therapeutic performance and far fewer side effects observed in the clinical treatment. However, limited researches have been reported to screen natural PAD4 inhibitors from herbal plants. The color developing reagent (COLDER) or fluorescence based methods have been widely used in PAD4 activity assay and inhibitor screening. However, both methods measure the overall absorbance or fluorescence in the reaction solution, which are easy to be affected by the background interference due to colorful extracts from herbal plants. In this study, a simple, and robust high-performance liquid chromatography ultraviolet-visible (HPLC-UV) based method was developed to determine PAD4 activity. The proposed strategy was established based on COLDER principle, while used hydrophilic l-arginine instead of hydrophobic N-benzoyl-l-arginine ethyl ester (BAEE) as a new substrate to determine PAD4 inhibition activity of herbal extracts. The herbal extracts and PAD4 generated hydrophobic l-citrulline were successfully separated by the HPLC, and the developed method was optimized and validated with a known PAD4 inhibitor (GSK484) in comparison with COLDER assay. The IC50 value of GSK484 measured by HPLC-UV method was 153 nM, and the detection limit of the citrulline was 0.5 nmol, respectively, with a linear range of 0.5 nmol to 20 nmol. The IC50 value of the HPLC-UV method was improved by nearly three times compared with COLDER assay (527 nM), and the results indicated the reliability of PAD4 inhibition via HPLC-UV method. The inhibitory effect against PAD4 were fast and accurately screened for the twenty-four extracts from eight herbs. Among them, Ephedra Herba extracts showed significant inhibitory activity against the PAD4 with the IC50 values of three extracts (ethanol, ethyl acetate and water) ranging from 29.11 μg/mL to 41.36 μg/mL, which may help researchers to discover novel natural compounds holding high PAD4 inhibition activity.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 305:123483.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nucleoside polyphosphate (NPP) anions are important for enzymatic activity and should be monitored by scientists in industry and medicine. By elucidating enzyme kinetics and processes, it aids in the discovery of effective inhibitors and activators. Nucleoside polyphosphate (NPP) anions are used by kinases, GTPases, and glycosyltransferases (GTs). Phosphorylation of certain amino acid residues (Ser, Thr, and Tyr) on proteins requires the breakdown of ATP by protein kinases, which produces ADP. Protein kinases, breakdown of ATP, and NPP are the focus of oncology drug development because the aberrant control of kinase activity is a common cause of cancer. RESULTS However, a discriminative turn-on fluorescent property is exhibited by non-fluorescent p-tertbutylcalix[4]arene modified 1,2,3-triazole containing bis-ruthenium polypyridyl complex (RL) upon the addition of phosphate anions such as (dihydrogen pyrophosphate (H2P2O72-) and dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4-)) in CH3CN solvent and Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) in CH3CN/HEPES (pH = 7.4) buffer (9/1, v/v). The probe RL shows a better-recognizing ability with pyrophosphate anion (H2P2O72-) than dihydrogen phosphate anion (H2PO4-). With H2P2O72- and H2PO4- anions, the RL detection limit was calculated to be as low as 83 nM and 198 nM, respectively. SIGNIFICANCE The calix[4]arene macrocycle's excellent size and binding cone conformation make it a good host-guest interface for the pyrophosphate anion and ADP. The bis-ruthenium polypyridyl complex's connection to the p-tertbutyl calix[4]arene moiety creates the ADP selectivity turn-on sensor. When moving from mono-nuclear to bi-nuclear ruthenium complex anchored on p-tertbutyl calix[4]arene, the probe can differentiate ADP, ATP, and AMP. Furthermore, this platform is a great resource for creating devices to simultaneously assess phosphate anions in environmental samples.

Abstract
The anion recognition and electrochemical anion-sensing properties of halogen-bonding (XB) tripodal zinc(II) receptors strategically designed and constructed for tetrahedral anion guest binding are described. The XB tris(iodotriazole)-containing hosts exhibit high affinities and selectivities for inorganic phosphate over other more basic, mono-charged oxoanions such as acetate and the halides in a competitive CD3 CN/D2 O (9 : 1 v/v) aqueous solvent mixture. 1 H NMR anion binding and electrochemical voltammetric anion sensing studies with redox-active ferrocene functionalised metallo-tripodal receptor analogues, reveal each of the XB tripods as superior anion complexants when compared to their tris(prototriazole)-containing, hydrogen bonding (HB) counterparts, not only exemplifying the halogen bond as a strong alternative interaction to the traditional hydrogen bond for molecular recognition but also providing rare evidence of the ability of XB receptors to preferentially bind the "harder" phosphate oxoanion over the "softer" and less hydrated halides in aqueous containing media.

Abstract
The supramolecular recognition of anions is increasingly harnessed to achieve the self-assembly of supramolecular architectures, ranging from cages and polymers to (pseudo)rotaxanes. The cyanostar (CS) macrocycle has previously been shown to form 2 : 1 complexes with organophosphate anions that can be turned into [3]rotaxanes by stoppering. Here we achieved steric control over the assembly of pseudorotaxanes comprising the cyanostar macrocycle and a thread that is based, for the first time, on organo-pyrophosphonates. Subtle differences in steric bulk on the threads allowed formation of either [3]pseudorotaxanes or [2]pseudorotaxanes. We demonstrate that the threading kinetics are governed by the steric demand of the organo-pyrophosphonates and in one case, slows down to the timescale of minutes. Calculations show that the dianions are sterically offset inside the macrocycles. Our findings broaden the scope of cyanostar-anion assemblies and may have relevance for the design of molecular machines whose directionality is a result of relatively slow slipping.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), one of the biological anions, plays a crucial role in several biological processes including energy transduction, cellular respiration, enzyme catalysis and signaling. ATP is a bioactive phosphate molecule, recognized as an important extracellular signaling agent. Apart from serving as a universal energy currency for various cellular events, ATP is also considered a factor responsible for numerous physiological activities. It regulates cellular metabolism by breaking phosphoanhydride bonds. Several diseases have been reported widely based on the levels and behavior of ATP. The variation of ATP concentration usually causes a foreseeable impact on mitochondrial physiological function. Mitochondrial dysfunction is responsible for the occurrence of many severe diseases such as angiocardiopathy, malignant tumors and Parkinson's disease. Therefore, there is high demand for developing a sensitive, fast-responsive, nontoxic and versatile detection platform for the detection of ATP. To this end, considerable efforts have been employed by several research groups throughout the world to develop specific and sensitive detection platforms to recognize ATP. Although a repertoire of optical chemosensors (both colorimetric and fluorescent) for ATP has been developed, many of them are not arrayed appropriately. Therefore, in this present review, we focused on the design and sensing strategy of some chemosensors including metal-free, metal-based, sequential sensors, aptamer-based sensors, nanoparticle-based sensors etc. for ATP recognition via diverse binding mechanisms.

Abstract
The electron-rich five-membered aromatic aza-heterocyclic imidazole, which contains two nitrogen atoms, is an important functional fragment widely present in a large number of biomolecules and medicinal drugs; its unique structure is beneficial to easily bind with various inorganic or organic ions and molecules through noncovalent interactions to form a variety of supramolecular complexes with broad medicinal potential, which is being paid an increasing amount of attention regarding more and more contributions to imidazole-based supramolecular complexes for possible medicinal application. This work gives systematical and comprehensive insights into medicinal research on imidazole-based supramolecular complexes, including anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, and anti-inflammatory aspects as well as ion receptors, imaging agents, and pathologic probes. The new trend of the foreseeable research in the near future toward imidazole-based supramolecular medicinal chemistry is also prospected. It is hoped that this work provides beneficial help for the rational design of imidazole-based drug molecules and supramolecular medicinal agents and more effective diagnostic agents and pathological probes.

Abstract
Inorganic pyrophosphate anions (PPi) play a key role in various biological processes and act as an essential indicator for physiological function evaluation and disease diagnosis. However, there is still a lack of available approaches for straightforward, robust, and convenient PPi detection. Herein, we design an on-off-on fluorescent switching nanoprobe employing Fe3+-mediated fluorescent sulfur quantum dots (SQDs) for highly robust detection of PPi. The bovine serum protein (BSA)-capped SQDs with fine water dispersibility and good optical stability are synthesized by an H2O2-assisted chemical etching reaction. Specifically, Fe3+ can strongly induce the aggregation of the SQDs into relatively larger sizes, resulting in aggregation-induced fluorescence quenching behavior. PPi can selectively bind with Fe3+ via emulative coordination and in preventing the aggregation of SQDs this is accompanied by recovery of fluorescence. The physicochemical properties of aggregated and disaggregated SQDs have been systematically investigated. Aggregation and disaggregation of the SQDs and the corresponding quenching and recovery of fluorescence occurs and guarantees the high-contrast sensing performance of the SQD system in complex and challenging aquatic environments. Our designed on-off-on nanoswitch holds great potential for the design of elemental quantum dot-based biosensors for the highly robust detection of analytes in the near future.

Abstract
In the present investigation, we have designed and synthesised Zn2+ sensitive Julolidine-hydrazone (JSB) based chemosensor, which crystallised in a monoclinic crystal system with P21/c space group. The bare JSB was nonemissive, but in the presence of Zn2+ ions in solution it showed emission, ascribed to the chelation enhanced emission process, which is also utilised to detect Zn2+ in water samples. Comparing the chromaticity coordinates deduced from the emission colors of the JSB-Zn2+ in solution, powder and hybrid polymer thin film, using CIE (Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage 1931) chromaticity diagram, it was found that compared to the emission of the solution, the emission of the powder was red shifted, while that of the thin film was blue shifted. Further, the sensing of Zn2+ showed reversibility in the presence of pyrophosphate (PPi), which allowed quantification of PPi. Interestingly, in addition to the detection of PPi using the in-situ formed JSB-Zn2+ complex, the process was selective and discriminated PPi from ADP and ATP. The detection of PPi was rationalized via a decomplexation reaction, and translated in the construction of INHIBIT logic gate. Additionally, the possible use of the JSB coated sensor paper for the on-site detection of Zn2+ and subsequent JSB-Zn2+ complex for PPi ions has been demonstrated. The experimental results showed good correlation with the theoretical calculations wherever possible.

Abstract
In this work, terephthaldehyde-cysteine-molybdenum nanoclusters (TPA-Cys-MoNCs) were synthesized by using terephthaldehyde-cysteine (TPA-Cys) Schiff base as a novel ligand. The as-synthesized TPA-Cys-MoNCs showed blue fluorescence under UV lamp at 365 nm, displaying emission peak at 455 nm when excited at 340 nm. The fluorescent TPA-Cys-MoNCs are used as a probe for sensitive assay of pyrophosphate (PPi) via fluorescence quenching mechanism. The emission peak intensity of TPA-Cys-MoNCs at 455 nm exhibited a linear quenching with increasing amount of PPi. As a result, quantitative assay was developed for the detection of PPi (0.01-200 µM) with the detection limit of 0.9 nM. The developed probe was successfully demonstrated for the detection of PPi in biofluids (urine and plasma).

Abstract
Inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) is an important biological functional anion and plays crucial roles in life science, environmental science, medicine, and chemical process. Quantification of PPi in water has far-reaching significance for life exploration, disease diagnosis, and water pollution control. The label-free quantitative detection of PPi anions with a nanofluidic sensing device based on a conical single nanochannel is demonstrated. The channel surface is functionalized with a synthetic PPi receptor, triazol-methanaminium-functionalized pillar[5]arene (TAMAP5), using carbodiimide coupling chemistry. Due to the specific binding between TAMAP5 and PPi, the functionalized nanochannel can discriminate PPi from other inorganic anions with high selectivity through ionic current recording, even in the presence of various interfering anions. The current response exhibits a linear correlation with PPi concentration in the range from 1 × 10-7 to 1 × 10-4 M with a limit of detection of 6.8 × 10-7 M. A spike-and-recovery analysis of PPi in East Lake water samples indicates that the proposed nanofluidic sensor has the ability to quantitate micromolar concentrations of PPi in environmental water samples.

Abstract
A new cyclometalated Ir(III) complex of a methylene-bridged benzimidazole-substituted 1,2,3-triazole methanol ligand has been synthesized for the photoluminescent detection of pyrophosphate (H2P2O72-) anions. The solution structure of 1[PF6] was fully characterized by 1D (1H, 13C) and 2D (1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C HSQC, and 1H-13C HMBC) NMR spectroscopy, and ESI-HRMS. The 1[PF6] acted as a highly selective luminescent sensor for H2P2O72- in CH3CN over other competitive ions, including H2PO4-, ATP, ADP and AMP. The PL titration of 1[PF6] with H2P2O72- in CH3CN furnished the association constant Ka = 8.6 × 107 M-1 and a low detection limit of ∼127 nM. The structure of the analyte interacting ligand renders the Ir(III) complex-based probe highly selective for H2P2O72- ions. The PL enhancement with H2P2O72- is due to the hydrogen bonding interaction of H2P2O72- with the triazole C-H, imidazole N-H, methylene hydrogen and hydroxyl groups of the ligand that has been supported by 1H NMR titration. Further, the PL enhancement of 1·H2P2O72- adducts was supported by triplet-state TDDFT calculations. In 1·H2P2O72-, the 3MLCT-3MC energy gap is increased, and the 1·H2P2O72- emits efficiently from the 3MLCT and 3ILCT excited states. Finally, a cytotoxicity study and live-cell imaging were performed. The probe showed low cytotoxicity against HeLa cells and was suitable for intracellular pyrophosphate imaging.

Abstract
The development of ultrasensitive in situ detection techniques for monitoring hypobromous acid (HBrO) levels in the biological systems is of great significance to reveal its complex pathological and physiological effects. A simple mitochondria-targetable hydrazine-based near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe (Mito-NIR) for detecting HBrO in the mitochondria of live cells is presented in this paper. Probe Mito-NIR displays the ultrafast (< 5 s) response for HBrO. It can detect HBrO with high sensitivity. Additionally, it shows high selectivity towards HBrO over other biologically important substances. Finally, it can monitor the changes of endogenous/exogenous HBrO levels in the mitochondria of live cells. A simple mitochondria-targetable NIR fluorescent probe with picomolar sensitivity for HBrO was developed to specifically track mitochondrial HBrO.

Abstract
Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), synthesized in mitochondria, is an energy molecule in all living things. ATP not only serves as an energy source for protein synthesis and muscle contraction, but also as an important indicator for various diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, cardiovascular disease, and others. Accordingly, detection and sensing of ATP, especially in mitochondria, are important. In this study, a unique ring-opening process of rhodamine was coupled to recognition of ATP via introduction of a thiourea moiety, which was further linked to a naphthalimide group. A strong fluorescent emission at ∼580 nm was accompanied by a color change from colorless to pink upon addition of ATP at pH 7.4. Fluorescent probe 1 successfully imaged mitochondrial ATP with a Pearson's coefficient of 0.8. In addition, green emission from the naphthalimide moiety at ∼530 nm was observed without any change upon addition of ATP. This emission can be considered equivalent to an internal standard to utilize probe 1 as a dual-channel probe for ATP. Furthermore, probe 1 showed negligible cytotoxicity based on MTT assays.

Abstract
A new rhodamine-based probe 3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehyde rhodamine hydrazone (RHTB) has been synthesized and well characterized using spectroscopic techniques and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Among several metal ions, it selectively detects Cu2+ ions as monitored by UV-Vis and emission spectral titrations. It displays "turn on" behavior owing to the opening of a spirolactum ring and the presence of 3,5-di-tert-butyl as an electron releasing group. Further, Cu2+ ions play a pivotal role in extracellular aggregation of Aβ42 peptides. So far, we know probably that there are no promising drugs available in this regard. Hence, countering the Cu2+ ions by RHTB chelation against orally administered Cu2+ ion-induced neurotoxicity in the eye tissue of Drosophila expressing human Aβ42 (amyloid-β42) has been tested. The present study involves in vivo and in silico approaches. They reveal the therapeutic potential of RHTB against Cu2+ ion-induced Aβ42 toxicity in Alzheimer's disease (AD) model of Drosophila.

Fluorescent probes have emerged as indispensable chemical tools to the field of chemical biology and medicine. The ability to detect intracellular species and monitor physiological processes has not only advanced our knowledge in biology but has provided new approaches towards disease diagnosis. In this review, we detail the design criteria and strategies for some recently reported fluorescent probes that can detect a wide range of biologically important species in cells and in vivo. In doing so, we highlight the importance of each biological species and their role in biological systems and for disease progression. We then discuss the current problems and challenges of existing technologies and provide our perspective on the future directions of the research area. Overall, we hope this review will provide inspiration for researchers and prove as useful guide for the development of the next generation of fluorescent probes.

Abstract
A novel aminoquinoline functionalized norbornene (1) and its ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) copolymer P1 have been designed and synthesized. The polymer probe P1 can self-assemble nano aggregation in aqueous solution. The fluorescent experiments revealed that both 1 and P1 show a ratiometric fluorescence response toward Zn2+ over other mental ions in Tris-HCl buffer solution, with the polymer probe P1 shows a better photostability and higher binding affinity than that of the small molecular probe 1. Furthermore, the in situ formed P1-Zn2+ ensemble was successfully used as the secondary sensor for ATP. P1 is also successfully used for monitoring intracellular Zn2+ and ATP in living cells.

Abstract
Synthetic molecular probes, chemosensors, and nanosensors used in combination with innovative assay protocols hold great potential for the development of robust, low-cost, and fast-responding sensors that are applicable in biofluids (urine, blood, and saliva). Particularly, the development of sensors for metabolites, neurotransmitters, drugs, and inorganic ions is highly desirable due to a lack of suitable biosensors. In addition, the monitoring and analysis of metabolic and signaling networks in cells and organisms by optical probes and chemosensors is becoming increasingly important in molecular biology and medicine. Thus, new perspectives for personalized diagnostics, theranostics, and biochemical/medical research will be unlocked when standing limitations of artificial binders and receptors are overcome. In this review, we survey synthetic sensing systems that have promising (future) application potential for the detection of small molecules, cations, and anions in aqueous media and biofluids. Special attention was given to sensing systems that provide a readily measurable optical signal through dynamic covalent chemistry, supramolecular host-guest interactions, or nanoparticles featuring plasmonic effects. This review shall also enable the reader to evaluate the current performance of molecular probes, chemosensors, and nanosensors in terms of sensitivity and selectivity with respect to practical requirement, and thereby inspiring new ideas for the development of further advanced systems.

The Multifarious Applications of Copper Nanoclusters in Biosensing and Bioimaging and Their Translational Role in Early Disease Detection. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:301.

Abstract
Nanoclusters possess an ultrasmall size, amongst other favorable attributes, such as a high fluorescence and long-term colloidal stability, and consequently, they carry several advantages when applied in biological systems for use in diagnosis and therapy. Particularly, the early diagnosis of diseases may be facilitated by the right combination of bioimaging modalities and suitable probes. Amongst several metallic nanoclusters, copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs) present advantages over gold or silver NCs, owing to their several advantages, such as high yield, raw abundance, low cost, and presence as an important trace element in biological systems. Additionally, their usage in diagnostics and therapeutic modalities is emerging. As a result, the fluorescent properties of Cu NCs are exploited for use in optical imaging technology, which is the most commonly used research tool in the field of biomedicine. Optical imaging technology presents a myriad of advantages over other bioimaging technologies, which are discussed in this review, and has a promising future, particularly in early cancer diagnosis and imaging-guided treatment. Furthermore, we have consolidated, to the best of our knowledge, the recent trends and applications of copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs), a class of metal nanoclusters that have been gaining much traction as ideal bioimaging probes, in this review. The potential modes in which the Cu NCs are used for bioimaging purposes (e.g., as a fluorescence, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), two-photon imaging probe) are firstly delineated, followed by their applications as biosensors and bioimaging probes, with a focus on disease detection.

Abstract
A new approach for increasing the sensitivity of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) detection was demonstrated. The assay was based on the synergetic function of a hybrid nanocomposite (MNPs@MMH) composed of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) incorporated in a mixed metal hydroxide (MMH). MNPs@MMH can be utilized as an efficient green extractant and peroxidase catalyst. The trace level of ATP in the sample solution was first extracted by the MNPs@MMH hybrid nanocomposite through the ion exchange properties of MMH and adsorbed on the surface of the MNPs@MMH. The concentration of ATP was related to the fluorescence intensity of 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) generated from peroxidase-like activity of the MNPs in the presence of H2O2 and o-phenylenediamine (OPD). In the presence of ATP, the active surface of the MNPs was diminished, and the amount of DAP generated was reduced. Thus, the concentration of ATP was related to the degree of fluorescence decrease compared to the fluorescence intensity of the system without ATP. Based on the proposed strategy, a highly sensitive assay for ATP was achieved. This assay exhibited good selectivity for detection of ATP over derivatives and other common anions. The proposed assay allowed the detection of ATP in a concentration range of 2.5-20 μM with a detection limit of 0.41 μM.

Abstract
Bio-inspired polymeric nanochannel (also referred as nanopore)-based biosensors have attracted considerable attention on account of their controllable channel size and shape, multi-functional surface chemistry, unique ionic transport properties, and good robustness for applications. There are already very informative reviews on the latest developments in solid-state artificial nanochannel-based biosensors, however, which concentrated on the resistive-pulse sensing-based sensors for practical applications. The steady-state sensing-based nanochannel biosensors, in principle, have significant advantages over their counterparts in term of high sensitivity, fast response, target analytes with no size limit, and extensive suitable range. Furthermore, among the diverse materials, nanochannels based on polymeric materials perform outstandingly, due to flexible fabrication and wide application. This compressive Review summarizes the recent advances in bio-inspired polymeric nanochannels as sensing platforms for detection of important analytes in living organisms, to meet the high demand for high-performance biosensors for analysis of target analytes, and the potential for development of smart sensing devices. In the future, research efforts can be focused on transport mechanisms in the field of steady-state or resistive-pulse nanochannel-based sensors and on developing precisely size-controlled, robust, miniature and reusable, multi-functional, and high-throughput biosensors for practical applications. Future efforts should aim at a deeper understanding of the principles at the molecular level and incorporating these diverse pore architectures into homogeneous and defect-free multi-channel membrane systems. With the rapid advancement of nanoscience and biotechnology, we believe that many more achievements in nanochannel-based biosensors could be achieved in the near future, serving people in a better way.

Effective and prolonged targeting of a nanocarrier to the inflammation site by functionalization with ZnBPMP and chitosan. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 131:112521.

Abstract
Efficient and selective targeting of inflamed tissues/organs is critical for diagnosis and therapy. Although nanomaterials themselves have an intrinsic advantage due to their size for targeting inflammation sites, additional functionalization of the nanomaterials with proper targeting moieties is desired to enhance the targeting efficiency. In this study, we aimed to improve the inflammation targeting characteristics of a pluronic-based nanocarrier, which has advantages as a nanosized delivery cargo for diverse molecules, by conjugating with chitosan and ZnBPMP (two Zn(II) ions chelated 2,6-bis[(bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino)-methyl]-4-methylphenol) moiety. Specific and significant cellular uptake and interaction between the nanocarrier functionalized with ZnBPMP ligand and chitosan to an apoptosis-induced immune cell line were observed in vitro. An inflammation model in the mouse ear caused by skin hypersensitivity was used to evaluate the effect of functionalization with chitosan and ZnBPMP moiety by comparing with various control groups. Functionalization of the nanocarrier with chitosan greatly enhanced the in vivo circulation time of the nanocarrier, so prolonged targeting ability of the nanocarrier to the inflamed ear was achieved. Additional ZnBPMP functionalization to chitosan-functionalized nanocarrier also resulted in significantly improved initial targeting and further enhancement in the targeting until 5 days to the inflamed ear and the decreased non-specific accumulation of the nanocarrier to the remaining body. Thus, developed nanocarrier has a high potential as a drug delivery carrier as well as a diagnostic agent to the inflammation sites.

Abstract
AzuFluor® 435-DPA-Zn, an azulene fluorophore bearing two zinc(II)-dipicolylamine receptor motifs, exhibits fluorescence enhancement in the presence of adenosine diphosphate. Selectivity for ADP over ATP, AMP and PPi results from appropriate positioning of the receptor motifs, since an isomeric sensor cannot discriminate between ADP and ATP.

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
Highly sensitive fluorescence detection of pyrophosphate ion (PPi) is in urgent demand but remains a great obstacle, ascribing to scarcity of high-performance materials with promising optical property and high affinity. Herein, we report the design and fabrication of a coumarin-based organic dye (DCCH-TPD) containing both hydrazide group and terpyridine moiety for PPi biosensing through Cu2+-induced photo-electron transfer (PET) effect and target analyte-switched competitive coordination reaction. Individual DCCH-TPD was found to be highly emissive, and displayed a turn-off response toward Cu2+ due to formation of Cu2+@DCCH-TPD and PET effect. The recognition of Cu2+@DCCH-TPD by PPi leads to generation of Cu2+@PPi complex, which greatly reduces the amount of Cu2+ coordinated with DCCH-TPD, subsequently decreasing PET effect. Significantly enhanced fluorescence is recorded and the fluorescence intensity is closely relied on PPi concentration. Thus, highly sensitive detection of PPi is achieved, and the detection limit was calculated to be 0.075 μM. Furthermore, the proposed sensor presented good selectivity, and excellent practical ability for application in arthritic fluid.

Abstract
Mixed monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles containing surface-bound triethylene glycol and dipicolylamine groups aggregated in water/methanol, 1 : 2 (v/v) in the presence of nucleotides, if the solution also contained zinc(ii) nitrate to convert the dipicolylamine units into the corresponding zinc complexes. Nanoparticle aggregation could be followed with the naked eye by the colour change of the solution from red to purple followed by nanoparticle precipitation. The sensitivity was highest for adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which could be detected at concentrations >10 μM, and decreased over adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to adenosine monophosphate (AMP), consistent with the typically higher affinity of zinc(ii)-dipicolylamine-derived receptors for higher charged nucleotides. Inorganic sodium diphosphate and triphosphate interfered in the assay by also inducing nanoparticle aggregation. However, while the nucleotide-induced aggregates persisted even at higher analyte concentrations, the nanoparticles that were precipitated with inorganic salts redissolved again when the salt concentration was increased. The thus resulting solutions retained their ability to respond to nucleotides, but they now preferentially responded to AMP. Accordingly, AMP could be sensed selectively at concentrations ≥50 μM in an aqueous environment, even in the presence of other nucleotides and inorganic anions. This work thus introduces a novel approach for the sensing of a nucleotide that is often the most difficult analyte to detect with other assays.

Abstract
Determination of PPi levels in urine represents a measurable factor for diagnostic, treatment, and monitoring of urolithiasis. Owing to the quenching ability of Cu2+ on fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) and strong binding affinity between Cu2+ and PPi, we develop a new off-on assay for PPi detection using newly BPHA CDs (BPHA: N,N-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hexan-1-amine). The fluorescence intensity of BPHA CDs was significantly quenched by Cu2+ ("off") through forming BPHA CDs/Cu2+ complexes and the fluorescence intensity of BPHA CDs /Cu2+ system was completely resumed by PPi ("on") owing to the release of free Cu2+. The fluorescence turn-off/on approach showed a highly selective response to PPi over the large family of other anions. The detection limits were 0.094 μM for Cu2+ and 0.025 μM for PPi, respectively. A wide linear range for PPi was up to 4400 μM. The indicator displacement assay (IDAs) using pyrocatechol violet (PV) as a colorimetric indicator was carried out to detect PPi with the naked eyes. The "off-on" fluorescent sensor based on BPHA CDs shows many merits, including convenient operation, cost-saving, high sensitivity, selectivity, stability and wide detecting range, which is applied to PPi detection in human urine sample.

Abstract
We report a paper-based chemosensor array device (PCSAD) for the quantitative detection of oxyanions including the herbicide glyphosate (GlyP) in aqueous media. The mechanism of the oxyanion detection relies on a coordination-binding-based sensor array. In this study, the competitive coordination binding among Zn2+ , four catechol dyes, and seven oxyanions caused noticeable colour changes. The colour changes were employed for qualitative and quantitative analyses using an in-house automated image-processing algorithm with pattern recognition for digital images. A linear discrimination analysis discerned similarly structured oxyanions with 100 % accuracy. The regression analysis allowed the accurate quantification of GlyP in the herbicide products with a limit of detection of 16 mg/L, which is lower than the health advisory value for children (20 mg/L) stipulated by the environmental protection agency (EPA). PCSAD is a powerful sensor device for the on-site quantification of aqueous anions for environmental assessment.
