Impedimetric aptasensor based on porphyrin-based covalent-organic framework for determination of diethylstilbestrol. Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:229. [PMID: 35610519 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-022-05310-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/16/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
An impedimetric sensing strategy was developed for sensitively determining diethylstilbestrol (DES) based on a platform of porphyrin-containing covalent-organic framework (p-COF). The p-COF was synthesized using 5,10,15,20-tetra (4-aminophenyl) porphyrin (TAPP) and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(4-formylphenyl) pyrene (TFPy) as building blocks via condensation reaction, for which p-COF was named as TAPP-TFPy-COF. Considering the large specific surface area (302.9 m2 g-1), high porosity, rich nitrogen functionality, superior electrochemical activity, and strong bioaffinity toward DNA strands, the TAPP-TFPy-COF-based platform exhibited enhanced, non-label, and amplified electrochemical signal, large number of immobilized DES-targeted aptamer strands, and fast-response toward the analyte. Electrochemical results reveal that the TAPP-TFPy-COF-based aptasensor promoted the sensing performance for the detection of DES, resulting in an extremely low limit of detection of 0.42 fg mL-1 within a DES concentration ranging from 1 fg mL-1 to 0.1 pg mL-1, which was substantially lower than those of most reported DES sensors. Furthermore, the TAPP-TFPy-COF-based aptasensor possessed outperformed stability, high selectivity, ascendant reproducibility, and acceptable applicability in diverse environments. The recovery values for DES detection in milk, tap water, and frozen shrimp were in the range 91.80-118.50% with low relative standard deviation of 0.11-4.26%. This work provides a new sensing electrochemical approach based on COF network for DES detection and shows a deep insight into the construction of COF-based biosensors, which can be extended to be used for other target compounds.

Abstract
Fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) have acquired growing interest from different areas over decades. Their fascinating property of tunable fluorescence by changing the excitation wavelength has attracted researchers worldwide. Understanding the mechanisms behind fluorescence is of great importance, as they help with the synthesis and applications, significantly when narrowed down to applications with color-tunable mechanisms. But, due to a lack of practical and theoretical information, the fluorescence mechanisms of CDs remain unknown, preventing the production of CDs with desired optical qualities. This review focuses on the PL mechanisms of carbon dots. The quantum confinement effect determined the carbon core, the surface and edge states determined by various surface defects and the connected functional/chemical groups on the surface/edges, the molecular state solely determined the fluorophores in the interior or surface of the CDs, and the Crosslink Enhanced Emission Effect are the currently confirmed PL mechanisms.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) as new nanomaterials have attracted much attention in recent years due to their unique characteristics. Notably, structure and interface modification (carbon core, edge, defects, and functional groups) of CDs have been considered as valid methods to regulate their properties, which contain electron transfer effect, electrochemical activity, fluorescence luminescent, and so on. Additionally, CDs with ultrasmall size, excellent dispersibility, high specific surface area, and abundant functional groups can guarantee positive and extraordinary effects in electrical energy storage and conversion. Therefore, CDs are used to couple with other materials by constructing a special interface structure to enhance their properties. Here, diverse structural and interfacial modifications of CDs with various heteroatoms and synergy effects are systematically analyzed. And not only several main syntheses of CDs-based composites (CDs/X) are summarized but also the merit and demerit of CDs/X in electrical energy storage are discussed. Finally, the applications of CDs/X in energy storage devices (supercapacitors, batteries) and electrocatalysts for practical applications are discussed. This review mainly provides a comprehensive summary and future prospect for synthesis, modification, and electrochemical applications of CDs.

Abstract
Mesoporous carbon materials have been increasingly studied due to their large specific surface area and good chemical stability. Optimizing their functionality through a doping modification can broaden their application in many fields. Herein, a series of B-doped mesoporous carbon materials are prepared by a convenient hydrothermal synthesis using F127 as the template and boric acid as the boron source. The whole material preparation process meets the requirements of green chemistry. Notably, the prepared carbon materials not only exhibit good electrocatalytic oxygen reduction to hydrogen peroxide in alkaline media but also have an excellent CO2 adsorption capacity (up to 121.34 mg/g) at 303 K and atmospheric pressure. These results show that the prepared samples can be utilized as multifunctional materials for handling a variety of environmental issues.

Abstract
In this study, a new "off-on-off" fluorescence strategy for detecting glutathione (GSH) and silver ions (Ag+) is presented. The constructed nanoprobe is composed of B, N co-doped carbon dots (B, N-CDs) and manganese dioxide nanosheets (MnO2 nanosheets), where MnO2 nanosheets serve as a kind of efficient fluorescence quencher. The sensing mechanism of the system is based on the inner filter effect (IFE) and destruction-protection strategy. The assay strategy includes three processes: fluorescence quenching of B, N-CDs by MnO2 nanosheets, the deconstruction of MnO2 nanosheets by GSH, the combination between GSH and Ag+. The MnO2 nanosheets are reduced to Mn2+ because of the addition of GSH and restoring the fluorescence intensity of the system, while the formation of the complex between GSH and Ag+ inhibit the reduction of MnO2 nanosheets on account of the addition of Ag+, leading to the decrease in fluorescence of the probe. This strategy allows the quantitative detection of GSH and Ag+ with detection limit of 0.32 μmol·L-1 and 0.24 μmol·L-1, respectively. Moreover, this approach displays good sensitivity, selectivity and broad linear range, which could be broadly applicable for practical applications.

Abstract
In this work, we firstly developed a new rapid detection method of nimesulide (Nim) based on the boron and nitrogen co-doped carbon dots (B,N-CDs) as the fluorescence probe. The B,N-CDs were prepared by a facile hydrothermal treatment using ammonium citrate and bis(pinacolato)diboron as precursors. The as-prepared B,N-CDs were mono-dispersed with an average diameter of 3.3 nm, and exhibited good stability and strong fluorescence emission with a high quantum yield of 68.89%. The fluorescence of B,N-CDs was obviously quenched with the addition of Nim. A good linear relationship between ln (F0/F) and the concentration of Nim was obtained in the range of 0-100 μM, and the limit of detection was 125 nM. Furthermore, the proposed analysis method was successfully applied for the detection of Nim in pharmaceutical samples and recoveries ranged from 94.60%-96.73%. More remarkably, it was further found that the as-prepared B,N-CDs displayed bright blue solid-state fluorescence, exhibiting potential application in invisible fluorescent ink for anti-counterfeiting and fluorescent dye.

Abstract
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs)/carbon nanodots are a new class of fluorescent carbon nanomaterials having an approximate size in the range of 2–10 nm. The majority of the reported review articles have discussed about the development of the CQDs (via simple and cost-effective synthesis methods) for use in bio-imaging and chemical-/biological-sensing applications. However, there is a severe lack of consolidated studies on the recently developed CQDs (especially doped/co-doped) that are utilized in different areas of application. Hence, in this review, we have extensively discussed about the recent development in doped and co-doped CQDs (using elements/heteroatoms—e.g., boron (B), fluorine (F), nitrogen (N), sulphur (S), and phosphorous (P)), along with their synthesis method, reaction conditions, and/or quantum yield (QY), and their emerging multi-potential applications including electrical/electronics (such as light emitting diode (LED) and solar cells), fluorescent ink for anti-counterfeiting, optical sensors (for detection of metal ions, drugs, and pesticides/fungicides), gene delivery, and temperature probing.

Abstract
Interest is growing in the development of artificial enzymes to overcome the drawbacks of natural enzymes. Herein, we have synthesized nitrogen-sulphur dual-doped carbon quantum dots (NS-CQDs) via a one-step hydrothermal method; the NS-CQDs possess excellent optical properties and a high fluorescent quantum yield (46%). Significantly, the NS-CQDs exhibited peroxidase mimetic enzyme activity without support from metals or polymeric materials and efficiently catalyzed the oxidation of peroxidase substrate 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of H2O2 to produce a blue solution with an absorption maximum at 652 nm. Mechanistic studies suggest that the small size and high electron density of NS-CQDs play vital roles and accelerate the reduction of H2O2 to generate ˙OH radical, which facilitates the oxidation of TMB. The catalytic activity is based on Michaelis-Menten kinetic behavior, and steady state kinetic analysis suggests that the NS-CQDs exhibit a higher affinity for H2O2 than TMB, similar to the natural enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Moreover, the catalytic pathway follows a ping-pong mechanism. Therefore, these findings offer a worthy platform for colorimetric detection of H2O2 in a linear range of 0.02 mM to 0.1 mM with a limit of detection of 0.004 mM. Interestingly, the blue colour of oxidized TMB showed excellent selectivity over non-thiolate biological molecules, especially amino acids, and glutathione can be detected up to 0.07 μM via colorimetric and fluorimetric assays. Additionally, this system showed excellent recovery (96.0-108.3%) of GSH from human blood serum. Thus, the proposed sensing system is simple, convenient, and straightforward and can be potentially applied for real time monitoring of H2O2 and glutathione in biological samples.
