Abstract
The van der Waals heterojunction is able to combine the advantages of different materials and has potential to be used in biosensing researches. In this study, we developed a novel van der Waals heterojunction by combining MXene and MoS2 nanosheets for the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing applications. This van der Waals heterojunction material not only possessed the superior conductivity of MXene, but also regulated the electron transport. Additionally, the incorporation of MoS2 nanosheets into the MXene interlayers significantly enhances the material stability. Meanwhile, nitrogen-rich quantum dots (N dots) were synthesized as ECL tags with an impressive nitrogen content of up to 75 %. By integrating the ECL response of N dots within the van der Waals heterojunction, we established a highly efficient sensing system for miRNA-373, which overexpressed in triple negative breast cancer tissues. The van der Waals heterojunction-based biosensor can enhance the ECL signal of N dots effectively to detect miRNA-373 from 1 fM to 1 μM. Consequently, the developed sensing system holds promise for the early detection of metastasis of the triple-negative breast cancer, paving the way for the effective clinical interventions.

Abstract
The development of chemiluminescence-based innovation sensing systems and the construction of a sensing mechanism to improve the analytical performance of compounds remain a great challenge. Herein, we fabricated an advanced oxidation processes pretreated chemiluminescence (AOP-CL) sensing system via the introduction of cobalt-modified black phosphorus nanosheets (Co@BPNs) to achieve higher efficient thiabendazole (TBZ) detection. Co@BPNs, enriched with lattice oxygen, exhibited a superior catalytic performance for accelerating the decomposition of ferrate (VI). This Co@BPNs-based ferrate (VI) AOP system demonstrated a unique ability to selectively decompose TBZ, resulting in a strong CL emission. On this basis, a highly selective and sensitive CL sensing platform for TBZ was established, which exhibited strong resistance to common ions and pesticides interference. This was successfully applied to detecting TBZ in environmental samples such as tea and kiwi fruits. Besides, the TBZ detection mechanism was explored, Co@BPNs-based ferrate (VI) AOP system produced a high yield of ROS (mainly 1O2), which oxidized the thiazole-based structure of TBZ, generating chemical energy that was transferred to Co@BPNs via a chemical electron exchange luminescence (CIEEL) mechanism, leading to intense CL emission. Notably, this study not only proposed an innovative approach to enhance the chemical activity and CL properties of nanomaterials but also offered a new pathway for designing efficient CL probes for pollutant monitoring in complex samples.

Abstract
To the deep tissue penetration and ultra-low background, developing near-infrared (NIR) chemiluminescence probes for human health and environmental safety has attracted more and more attention, but it remains a huge challenge. Herein, a novel NIR chemiluminescence (CL) system was rationally designed and developed, utilizing Cr3+-activated ZnGa2O4 (ZGC) nanoparticles as a catalytic luminophore via hypochlorite (NaClO) activation for poisonous target (hydrazine, N2H4) detection. With superior optical performance and unique catalytic structure of ZGC nanoparticles, the fabricated ZGC-NaClO-N2H4 CL system successfully demonstrated excellent NIR emission centered at 700 nm, fast response, and high sensibility (limit of detection down to 0.0126 μM). Further experimental studies and theoretical calculations found the cooperative catalytic chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer mechanism in the ZGC-NaClO-N2H4 system. Remarkably, the ZGC-based NIR CL system was further employed for N2H4 detection in a complicated matrix involving bioimaging and real water samples, thereby opening a new way as a highly reliable and accurate tool in biomedical and environmental monitoring applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Luminol chemiluminescence (CL) sensing system remains an excellent candidate for application in bioanalysis due to its good water solubility. However, traditional luminol CL system usually requires the addition of oxidizing agents and sensitizers to obtain high efficiency for the improvement of detection sensitivity. Although numerous studies on the nanomaterial-enhanced luminol CL systems have been carried out, there is still great potential to develop inexpensive, readily available and easily handled catalysts to construct simple and effective CL platform for biomolecular sensing. RESULTS Few-layered MoS2 nanosheets (NS) prepared by sonication-assisted exfoliation of commercially available bulk MoS2 were found to significantly enhance the CL of luminol‒dissolved oxygen in the absence of additional oxidants. The mechanism study demonstrated that exfoliated MoS2 NS could catalyze the decomposition of dissolved oxygen by virtue of its exposed active sites on the surface, generating increased reactive oxygen intermediates, which then oxidize luminol and produce intense CL emission. The proposed high-efficiency luminol CL system was then employed for the extremely sensitive identification of dopamine based on the quenching of CL by dopamine. The limit of detection (LOD) for dopamine can be as low as 2.07 nM. Besides, it also works well in the actual urine sample with good recoveries (99.6-100.6 %), confirming the practicability of the method. SIGNIFICANCE As a new type of CL catalyst, MoS2 NS developed in this work are easy to obtain, simple to prepare and can be produced in large quantities, which lays a foundation for extending applicability of MoS2 NS in the CL field, and provides a new idea for developing simple and highly sensitive CL sensing system.

Abstract
Amino-functional silica-coated N-doped carbon dots (NH2-SiO2-CDs) were covalently modified by l-tryptophan (chiral selector) by producing an amide bond between carboxyl groups of L-try and amino groups of NH2-SiO2-CDs to develop a novel high throughput chiral nanoprobes (L-try-CONH-SiO2-CDs) for highly sensitive and enantioselective quantification of S-/R-mandelic acid (S-/R-Man). The method showed a great difference between S- and R-isomers (enantioselectivity coefficient = 4.17) due to the ultra-stability of the Meisenheimer complex that was formed between S-isomer and nanoprobe (KS-Man/KR-man = 2122.7, where K is the binding-constant). At optimal experimental conditions, two linear ranges of 0.5-25.0 (LOD of 0.05 μM) and 0.5-22.0 μM (LOD of 0.27 μM) for S- and R-Man, respectively, along with an enhanced sensitivity toward S-isomer (about 5.7-fold higher than R-isomer) were attained. High selectivity for the determination of mandelic acid was achieved compared to metal ions, amino acids, and sugars that commonly coexist with it. Intra-day as well as inter-day assays, respectively, showed RSD values of about 3.2 and 3.9%. The mechanistic studies were performed for proving the enantioselective behavior of the developed nanoprobe. The method was then used for S-/R-mandelic acid determination in bio-samples. The figures of merit for the method were found to be better than those already reported for enantioselective detection of R-/S-Man.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of Au-Pd core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) with wild-type Escherichia coli (Au-Pd/E. coli) is an excellent newly established, environmentally friendly synthetic method for the fabrication of nanomaterials compared to traditional chemosynthesis. However, there is insufficient detailed bioinformation on the compatibility, metabolic process, and mechanism of this approach. Metabolomics approaches have provided an excellent alternative to numerous bioinformatics approaches for shedding light on the biological response of an organism exposed to external stimuli at the molecular level. In this study, two different doses (8 and 80 μg/mL) of Au-Pd/E. coli were applied to treat human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry coupled with bioinformatics was used to analyze the changes in the HUVEC metabolome after treatment. The results indicated the occurrence of nonsignificant acute cytotoxicity based on cell proliferation and apoptosis analysis, while high concentrations (80 μg/mL) of Au-Pd/E. coli induced dramatic changes in energy metabolism, revealing a notable inhibition of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle along with the enhancement of glycolysis, the pentose phosphate pathway, fatty acid biosynthesis, and lipid accumulation, which was correlated with mitochondrial dysfunction. The metabolomics results obtained for this novel Au-Pd/E. coli-cell system could broaden our knowledge of the biological effect of Au-Pd/E. coli and possibly reveal material modifications and technological innovations.

Abstract
In this study, an on–off–on fluorescence probe for the detection of trace Cu(ii) and ascorbic acid (AA) based on biomass-derived sulfur and nitrogen double heteroatom-doped carbon dots (N,S-CDs) was designed. For the first time, the probe (N,S-CDs) was prepared from grape seeds and thiourea as the precursor. Cu(ii) was added to the carbon point solution, the fluorescence intensity (FL) of N,S-CDs was strongly quenched (switch OFF) and the fluorescence probe turned to “ON” (switch ON) with the addition of AA. Under the optimal conditions, the as-synthesized N,S-CDs had a good detection performance for Cu(ii) and AA assay with the linearity ranges from 150–500 μg mL−1 and 0.1–400 μg mL−1, and the LODs were 0.048 mg L−1 and 0.036 mg L−1, respectively. The as-prepared N,S-CDs exhibited a low cytotoxicity and a good biocompatibility, which show their potential for application in the biological imaging of living cells. In this study, an on–off–on fluorescence probe for the detection of trace Cu(ii) and ascorbic acid (AA) based on biomass-derived sulfur and nitrogen double heteroatom-doped carbon dots (N,S-CDs) was designed.![]()

Abstract
A chemiluminometric method is introduced for the determination of the stress biomarker, 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) based on the H2O2-NaIO4 reaction enhanced by cobalt and nitrogen-doped carbon dots (Co,N-CDs). In this chemiluminescence (CL) system, the emission proved to be originated from the excited-state Co,N-CDs (λmax = 504 nm). Comparing the effect of Co,N-CDs with that of some other metal ion-doped CDs and undoped CDs indicated the high efficiency of Co,N-CDs in the CL amplification (about 1980-fold). This was attributed to the fact that Co,N-CDs, in addition to other functions, could act as catalytic center, to accelerate the decomposition of H2O2 and to increase the number of hydroxyl radicals. It was found that 3-NT inhibits the action of Co,N-CDs by an electron transfer process, leading to a decline in the CL intensity of the system. Therefore, a new CL sensing platform was introduced for the assay of 3-NT in the range 5.0 to 300 nM with a detection limit of 1.5 nM. The probe was utilized for the analysis of biological samples.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) are carbon nanoparticles with a size of less than 10 nm, and are synthesized from various sources; they have been of great interest to scientists worldwide due to their unique optical, electrical, and chemical properties. Sources of carbon are inexpensive and can be classified as a renewable natural resources. Many researchers use CDs because of their low toxicity, better water solubility, high biocompatibility, and stable photoluminescence. The simple methods for producing CDs are hydrothermal and use inexpensive equipment, have low energy consumption, simple manipulation, and one-step preparation. Since the discovery of CDs, researchers have used them in various applications such as sensing, bioimaging, drug delivery, and catalysis. In this review, CDs synthesized from natural resources such as samples from herbs, roots, leaves, flowers, and fruit and some applications are described. This review provides a summary of carbon dots that is expected to provide further information for development of new CDs.

[PMID: 33686780 DOI: 10.1002/bio.4040] [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: 01/16/2021] [Revised: 03/03/2021] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
A simple and sensitive fluorescence turn-off-on sensor was established by means of S,N co-doped carbon dots (S,N-CDs) and Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) for the determination of Hg2+ . For this purpose, blue emissive S,N-CDs were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized using transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. We observed that the fluorescence intensity of the as-prepared S,N-CDs was impressively quenched by AgNPs. The quenching mechanism was studied and attributed to nanosurface energy transfer and the inner filter effect between S,N-CDs and AgNPs. Furthermore, by adding Hg2+ , the fluorescence intensity of S,N-CDs/AgNPs was restored as a result of aggregation of AgNPs in the presence of Hg2+ . Based on these facts, S,N-CDs and AgNPs were exploited to design a sensitive turn-off-on sensor for analysis of Hg2+ . The recovered fluorescence signal was proportional to the concentration of Hg2+ in the range 1.5-2000 nM with a detection limit of 0.51 nM. The established sensor was used with satisfactory results for measurement of Hg2+ in environmental water samples.

Abstract
Graphene-based supercapacitors have been attracting growing attention due to the predicted intrinsic high surface area, high electron mobility, and many other excellent properties of pristine graphene. However, experimentally, the state-of-the-art graphene electrodes face limitations such as low surface area, low electrical conductivity, and low capacitance, which greatly limit their electrochemical performances for supercapacitor applications. To tackle these issues, hybridizing graphene with other species (e.g., atom, cluster, nanostructure, etc.) to enlarge the surface area, enhance the electrical conductivity, and improve capacitance behaviors are strongly desired. In this review, different hybridization principles (spacers hybridization, conductors hybridization, heteroatoms doping, and pseudocapacitance hybridization) are discussed to provide fundamental guidance for hybridization approaches to solve these challenges. Recent progress in hybridized graphene for supercapacitors guided by the above principles are thereafter summarized, pushing the performance of hybridized graphene electrodes beyond the limitation of pure graphene materials. In addition, the current challenges of energy storage using hybridized graphene and their future directions are discussed.

Abstract
Carbon quantum dots (CDs) are a new class of fluorescent carbonaceous nanomaterials that were casually discovered in 2004. Since then, they have become object of great interest in the scientific community because of their peculiar optical properties (e.g., size-dependent and excitation wavelength-dependent fluorescence), which make them very similar to the well-known semiconductor quantum dots and suitable for application in photovoltaic devices (PVs). In fact, with appropriate structural engineering, it is possible to modulate CDs photoluminescence properties, band gap, and energy levels in order to realize the band matching suitable to enable the desired directional flow of charge carriers within the PV device architecture in which they are implanted. Considering the latest developments, in the present short review, the employment of CDs in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) will be summarized, in order to study the role played by these nanomaterials in the improvement of the performances of the devices. After a first brief summary of the strategies of structural engineering of CDs and the effects on their optical properties, the attention will be devoted to the recent highlights of CDs application in organic solar cells (OSCs) and in dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), in order to guide the users towards the full exploitation of the use of these nanomaterials in such OPV devices.

Abstract
The development of sensitive fluorescence sensors and efficient preparation of samples is a challenge in the detection of pesticides in complex samples. In this study, multicolor nitrogen dots (M-Ndots) were synthesised via microwave irradiation at 140 °C for 10 min with 5-amino-1H-tetrazole and p-phenylenediamine as precursors, which have a high fluorescence quantum yield of up to 31%. Furthermore, the M-Ndots were employed as fluorescence sensors for pesticide detection by being combined with a gas membrane separation device, to eliminate the interference from the complex sample matrix. In this process, the M-Ndots were used for sensing thiram and chlorpyrifos through their affinities to Cu2+ and Fe3+, respectively. Because thiram could decompose into volatile CS2, its derivate was sensed using the fluorescence of M-Ndots via a complexation reaction with Cu2+. Chlorpyrifos, due to its volatility, can reduce the Fe3+ ion by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase, which produces H2O2 to oxidise Fe2+. In a real application, the time consumption for 96 samples was less than 30 min in one run of the gas membrane separation device. The recoveries for thiram and chlorpyrifos ranged from 90.0% to 115.0%, and the analytical results were validated using LC-MS/MS methods, with relative errors ranging from -7.4% to 10.1%.

Abstract
In this work, cerium-doped LaF3 nanoparticles (LaF3:Ce NPs) were successfully synthesized and characterized. Its chemiluminescence (CL) property was studied, and it was amazingly found that it intensely enhanced the ultra-weak CL of the NaNO2-H2O2 system. The CL mechanism was systematically investigated and suggested to be the recombination of electron-injected and hole-injected LaF3:Ce NPs. The new CL system was developed to be a facile, original, and direct method for nitrite analysis. Experimental conditions were optimized and then a satisfactory linear relationship between CL intensity and nitrite concentration was obtained. This work introduced a new pathway for the research and application of traditional fluoride NPs doped with RE3+.

Abstract
In this article, a simple, effective chemiluminescence (CL) method for the detection of methylparaben (MP) in cosmetic samples was developed based on an IO4 - -H2 O2 -carbon nitrogen quantum dots (CNQDs) system without a separation process. The results indicated that the redox reaction between periodate and hydrogen peroxide released hydroxide radicals and superoxide radical anions in the presence of bicarbonate. These two radicals were responsible for the formation of excited luminophor CNQD* with a maximum wavelength at 480 nm. Due to the competitive reaction with hydroxide radicals, CL intensity was markedly diminished in the presence of MP. The relative standard deviation in the intraday assay was below 5.5% (n = 9), and the detection limit was as low as 0.50 μmol/L. The proposed method allowed for the successful, selective determination of MP in cosmetics.

Abstract
A simple one-step thermal treatment to prepare strong fluorescent sulfur and nitrogen co-doped graphene quantum dots (SN-GQD) using citric acid and l-cysteine as precursors was developed. The ultra-weak chemiluminescence (CL) from the reaction of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) and periodate (IO4 - ) was significantly enhanced by SN-GQD in acidic medium. The enhanced CL was induced by excited-state SN-GQD (SN-GQD*), which was produced from the transfer energy of (O2 )2 * and 1 O2 to SN-GQD and recombination of oxidant-injected holes and electrons in SN-GQD. In the presence of tryptophan (Trp), the CL intensity of the SN-GQD-H2 O2 -KIO4 system was greatly diminished. This finding was used to design a novel method for determination of Trp in the linear range 0.6-20.0 μM, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 58.0 nM. Furthermore, Hg2+ was detectable in the range 0.1-9.0 μM with a LOD of 64.0 nM, based on its marked enhancement of the SN-GQD-H2 O2 -KIO4 CL system. The proposed method was successfully applied to detect Trp in milk and human plasma samples and Hg2+ in drinking water samples, with recoveries in the range 95.7-107.0%.

Abstract
In this study, water-soluble emissive carbon dots (CDs) are effectively fabricated with specific optical properties and colors by acid oxidation of muskmelon (Cucumis melo) fruit, which are termed as C. melo CDs (CMCDs). The fluorescence properties of CMCDs were tuned by controlling the experimental conditions that allow them to emit different colors, that is, blue (B-), green (G-), and yellow (Y-) CMCDs, with different emission wavelengths at 432, 515, and 554 nm when excited at 342, 415, and 425 nm, respectively. The fabricated multicolor-emissive CDs were confirmed by various analytical techniques. The sizes of B-, G-, and Y-CMCDs were found to be ∼3.5, ∼4.3, and ∼5.8 nm, respectively. The as-prepared CMCDs display stable emissions with quantum yields of 7.07, 26.9, and 14.3% for the three CMCDs, which could act as a promising probe for the selective detection of Hg2+ ions. Upon the addition of Hg2+ ions, the fluorescence intensity of G-CMCDs at 515 nm was quenched largely than that of B- and Y-CMCDs. The spectroscopic results display that the G-CMCDs acted as a sensor for the detection of Hg2+ ions with a wide linear range from 1.0 to 25 μM (R 2 = 0.9855) with a detection limit of 0.33 μM. This method was successfully applied to detect Hg2+ ions in biological and water samples. The fabricated multicolor-emissive CMCDs possess the cell (Cunninghamella elegans, Aspergillus flavus, and Rhizoctonia solani) imaging property, suggesting the biocompatible nature for multicolor imaging of various cells.

Abstract
The hitherto unknown influence of 1,10-phenonthroline (1,10-phen) and its derivatives on the weak chemiluminescence (CL) of periodate-peroxide has been investigated, and a novel method for CL catalysis is described. Herein, we have deconvoluted the variation in CL intensity arising from the addition of various derivatives of 1,10-phen. Interestingly, similar derivatives of 1,10-phen show interesting differences in their reactivity toward CL. Electron-withdrawing substituents on 1,10-phen boosted the CL signals, indicating a negative charge buildup on 1,10-phen in the rate-determining step. The 1,10-phen derivatives having substitution at the C5=C6 position resulted in no CL signals due to the blockage of the reactive site. Mechanistic investigations are interpreted in terms of free radical (H2O2 reaction), followed by the oxygen atom transfer via an electrophilic attack of IO4 - (IO4 - reaction) on 1,10-phen resulting in dioxetane with enhanced CL emission. Additionally, the relationship between electronic structures and photophysical properties was investigated using density functional theory. Our results are expected to open up promising application of 1,10-phen as a molecular catalyst, providing a new strategy for metal-free catalytic CL enhancement reaction. We believe that this would foster in gleaning more detailed information on the nature of these reactions, thereby leading to a deeper understanding of the CL mechanism.

Abstract
A hydrothermal strategy for preparing boron and nitrogen codoped carbon quantum dots was studied using the precursors of p-amino salicylic acid, boric acid and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The boron and nitrogen codoped carbon quantum dots have high fluorescence intensity, good monodispersity, high stability, superior water solubility, and a fluorescence quantum yield of 19.6%. Their average size is 5 nm. Their maximum excitation and emission wavelengths are 380 and 520 nm, respectively. Permanganate (MnO4-) quenched boron and nitrogen codoped carbon quantum dots fluorescence through inner filter effect and static quenching effects. The linear relation between quenching efficiency and MnO4- concentration ranged from 0.05 to 60 μmol/L with a detection limit of 13 nmol/L. In the presence of captopril, MnO4- was reduced to Mn2+ and the fluorescence of boron and nitrogen codoped carbon quantum dots was recovered. The linear range between recovery and captopril concentration was from 0.1 to 60 μmol/L. The limit of detection was 0.03 μmol/L. The developed method can be employed as a sensitive fluorescence sensing platform for MnO4-. It has been successfully used for captopril detection in mouse plasma.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2019; 219:281-287.

Abstract
A novel nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon dots (NS-CDs)-H2O2 chemiluminescence (CL) system was developed to detect carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) by taking advantage of dual-signal amplification of functional Au@Ag nanoparticles (NPs) nanoprobes. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and the complementary DNA were co-immobilized onto Au@Ag NPs surface to shape the functional nanoprobes (HRP-Au@Ag-cDNA) for signal amplification. In this proposal, HRP-Au@Ag-cDNA was specifically hybridized with CEA aptamer-functionalized magnetic beads to form the double-strand hybridization nanocomposites (HRP-Au@Ag-dsDNA-MB). Upon the addition of CEA, the CEA aptamer preferred to bind with CEA instead of double-strand hybridization interaction, thus HRP-Au@Ag-dsDNA-MB was dehybridized and the HRP-Au@Ag-cDNA nanoprobe was released. The synergistic catalytic effects of HRP and Au @Ag NPs endow the nanoprobe producing a dual CL signal amplification in the NS-CDs-H2O2 CL system. The CL intensity of the developed strategy enhanced with CEA concentration increasing in the range of 0.3-80 ng mL-1. Benefiting from the synergistic effect, a detection limit as low as 94 pg mL-1 was obtained. Moreover, successful application of this CL sensing platform was achieved for the determination of CEA in human serum samples, demonstrating the promising prospect in the early tumor warning and therapeutic monitoring.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs), especially metal-free QDs with their unique optoelectronic properties, environmental friendliness, and excellent biocompatibility, have opened a new avenue to explore novel chemiluminescence (CL) systems for analytical applications. However, the unknown CL properties, relatively weak emission, and instability of some of them in water (e.g., black phosphorus QDs) often seriously hinder their further practical applications. Chemical modification trends have offered new properties for materials and have been proved to be desirable ways to establish sensing platforms with improved sensitivity and stability. Herein, oleic acid capped black phosphorus QDs (OA-BP QDs) with improved stability and optical properties were successfully synthesized. More importantly, an extraordinary CL emission when OA-BP QDs reacted with SO32- was first observed. In the CL process, OA-BP QDs acted as the catalyst to trigger singlet oxygen (1O2) generation in NaHSO3, and then a chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) between (1O2)2* (1O2 dimeric aggregate) and OA-BP QDs was produced. On this basis, a new CL system for directly monitoring SO32- in airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) was fabricated. The study opens attractive perspectives of modified metal-free QDs for the practice of CL in monitoring the chemical species in PM2.5.

Abstract
Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) have been combined with aptamer, providing a broad application in small molecule. CNPs can be quenched by small molecules and are usually applied as luminescent probes because of their photophysical characteristics. In this work, we developed a competitive analysis for antibiotic residues detection based on carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) and oligonucleotide probes. Oligonucleotide probes including oxytetracycline (OTC) aptamer was exploited for recognition OTC and was used to restore the luminescence. Tetracycline (TC), as a competitor of OTC, was utilized to quench the luminescence of CNPs and reduce the sample matrix effect. Under optimal conditions, the linear rang of OTC was 0.010~1.0 ng/mL with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) from 2.91% to 11.3%, and the limit of detection (LOD) was low to 0.002 ng/mL. Moreover, the proposal was successfully applied to analyze OTC from drink water, indicating that this approach has great potential for other small molecule analysis.

Abstract
Glucose assay is highly important in clinical diagnostics of diabetes. Herein, we engineered the surface of carbon dots by complexation with functional ligand and constructed fluorescent biosensors for the detection of hydrogen peroxide and glucose. In this study, benzenediboronic acid is conjugated to the surface of citric acid-derived carbon dots through formation of boronate complexes with the nanoparticles. The oxidation of benzenediboronic acid with hydrogen peroxide effectively quenches fluorescence of carbon dots through electron transfer process. The sensing performance of the system according to different engineered surfaces of carbon dots was studied by using carbon dots derived from various precursors and different benzenediboronic acid analogues. As a simple mix-and-detect strategy, this system is facilely applied for glucose sensing as hydrogen peroxide is the product catalyzed by glucose oxidase. The benzenediboronic acid-conjugated carbon dots derived from citric acid act as excellent optical probes for sensitive analysis of glucose with detection limit of 0.4 μM. This sensing system shows great selectivity toward interferent species such as analogues of glucose, and can be used to determine glucose in human serum. Engineering the surface of carbon dots by complexation with ligand of interest provides a feasible way to facilitate the development of biological applications.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is of intense interest because of its crucial role in many fields. Here we demonstrate that MoS2-QDs exhibit a promising capability for the generation of reactive oxygen species, which leads to enhanced chemiluminescence. We discovered that the unique performance is due to hydroxyl radical activation increasing the active catalytic sites on molybdenum sulphide quantum dots (MoS2-QDs). The reactive oxygen species, such as hydroxyl radicals (˙OH), superoxide radicals (˙O2 -) and singlet oxygen (1O2) have been efficiently generated from H2O2 solution in alkaline conditions. In particular, the maximum ˙OH yield was enhanced significantly (9.18 times) compared to the Fe(ii)/H2O2 Fenton system under neutral conditions. These findings not only enrich our understanding of the fascinating performance of MoS2 QDs, but also provide a new pathway for ROS generation in all kinds of pH environment.

Abstract
The nitrogen doped carbon dots (N-CDs) produces strong chemiluminescence (CL)-emission due to hydroxyl radical (•OH) induced electron-hole transition in N-CDs. The Fe2+ has the ability to generate •OH from available hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Therefore, a pre-mixed N-CDs/H2O2 solution was utilized for selective quantification of Fe2+ in solution via CL-emission. A linear increase in the CL-emission intensity was observed within increase in Fe2+ concentration. The N-CDs/H2O2 system enabled the detection of Fe2+ up to lower concentration of 0.2 × 10-9 M with a linear dynamic range of 1.0 × 10-9-1.0 × 10-6 M. Significantly, no CL-emission was observed when other divalent cations, Al3+, Fe3+, or Cr3+ were injected to this system. Moreover, no interference was observed when a mixed solution of Fe2+ and other cations were introduced to N-CDs/H2O2. The practical evaluation of N-CDs/H2O2 system was demonstrated for detection of Fe2+ in tap, lotus pond, and canal water samples. The easy detection, high sensitivity, and selectivity make this method a significant tool for analysis of Fe2+ in solution.

Abstract
Nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) are shown to strongly enhance the integrated chemiluminescence (CL) of the permanganate-sulfite system. The mechanism of enhancement was investigated, and the catalytic effect of the NGQDs was proven. In contrast to other carbon-based nanomaterials, the enhancement by NGQDs is independent of particle size and surface. However, the pyridinic nitrogen on the surface of the NGQDs facilitates the transformation of dissolved oxygen into H2O2 and the generation of hydroxyl radicals. This induces the increase of CL intensity. However, in the presence of Fe3+, the nitrogen functions and phenol groups on the surface of the NGQDs will chelate it, and the CL signal is decreased as a result. This effect was used to design an assay for Fe3+ that has a wide response range (1 × 10-8 - 1 × 10-6 M) and a 4 nM detection limit. The method was successfully applied to the determination of Fe3+ in spiked real water samples. Graphical abstract Nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) are demonstrated to strongly enhance the integrated chemiluminescence (CL) of the permanganate-sulfite system. The pyridinic N-atoms in NGQDs facilitate the transformation from dissolved oxygen into H2O2 and the generation of •OH radicals. This leads to the highly enhanced CL of the system. In the presence of Fe3+, which will be chelated by the nitrogen functions and phenol groups on the surface of the NGQDs, the CL signal is decreased.

Abstract
We report on a chemiluminescence (CL) system based on simultaneous enhancing effect of Si-doped carbon dots (Si-CDs) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on HCO3--H2O2 reaction. The possible CL mechanism is investigated and discussed. Excited-state Si-CDs was found to be the final emitting species, which are probably produced via electron and hole injection by oxy-radicals. The effect of several other heteroatom-doped CDs and undoped CDs was also investigated and compared with Si-CDs. Furthermore, it was found that catecholamines such as dopamine, adrenaline and noradrenaline remarkably diminish the CL intensity of Si-CD-HCO3--H2O2-CTAB system. By taking advantage of this fact, a sensitive probe was designed for determination of dopamine, adrenaline and noradrenaline with a limit of detection of 0.07, 0.60 and 0.01 μM, respectively. The method was applied to the determination of catecholamines in human plasma samples.
