Abstract
Modern society has been facing serious health-related problems including food safety, diseases and illness. Hence, it is urgent to develop analysis methods for the detection and control of food contaminants, disease biomarkers and pathogens. As the traditional instrumental methods have several disadvantages, including being time consuming, and having high cost and laborious procedures, optical nanosensors have emerged as promising alternative or complementary approaches to those traditional ones. With the advantages of simple preparation, high surface-to-volume ratio, excellent biocompatibility, and especially, unique optical properties, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been demonstrated as excellent transducers for optical sensing systems. Herein, we provide an overview of the synthesis of AuNPs and their excellent optical properties that are ideal for the development of optical nanosensors based on local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), colorimetry, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) phenomena. We also review the sensing strategies and their mechanisms, as well as summarizing the recent advances in the monitoring of food contaminants, disease biomarkers and pathogens using developed AuNP-based optical nanosensors in the past seven years (2015-now). Furthermore, trends and challenges in the application of these nanosensors in the determination of those analytes are discussed to suggest possible directions for future developments.

Abstract
![]()
The small molecule
8-methoxy-2-oxo-1,2,4,5-tetrahydrocyclopenta[de]quinoline-3-carboxylic
acid (2b) behaves as a reactive non-fluorescent Michael
acceptor, which after reaction with thiols becomes fluorescent, and
an efficient Eu3+ antenna, after self-assembling with this
cation in water. This behavior makes 2b a highly selective
GSH biosensor, which has demonstrated high potential for studies in
murine and human cells of the immune system (CD4+ T, CD8+ T, and B cells) using flow cytometry. GSH can be monitored
by the fluorescence of the product of addition to 2b (445
nm) or by the luminescence of Eu3+ (592 nm). 2b was able to capture baseline differences in GSH intracellular levels
among murine and human CD4+ T, CD8+ T, and B
cells. We also successfully used 2b to monitor intracellular
changes in GSH associated with the metabolic variations governing
the induction of CD4+ naïve T cells into regulatory
T cells (TREG).

Abstract
The contamination of heavy metals (e.g., Hg, Pb, Cd and As) poses great risks to the environment and human health. Rapid and simple detection of heavy metals of considerable toxicity in low concentration levels is an important task in biological and environmental analysis. Among the many convenient detection methods for heavy metals, DNA-inspired gold nanoparticles (DNA-AuNPs) have become a well-established approach, in which assembly/disassembly of AuNPs is used for colorimetric signaling of the recognition event between DNA and target heavy metals at the AuNP interface. This review focuses on the recent efforts of employing DNA to manipulate the interfacial properties of AuNPs, as well as the major advances in the colorimetric detection of heavy metals. Beginning with the introduction of the fundamental aspects of DNA and AuNPs, three main strategies of constructing DNA-AuNPs with DNA binding-responsive interface are discussed, namely, crosslinking, electrostatic interaction and base pair stacking. Then, recent achievements in colorimetric biosensing of heavy metals based on manipulation of the interface of DNA-AuNPs are surveyed and compared. Finally, perspectives on challenges and opportunities for future research in this field are provided.

Abstract
Herein, we have developed citrate-, glutathione-, and ascorbate-functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to examine their interactions with diverse heavy metal ions, such as Cd, Mn, Cr, Fe, Co, Pb, Hg, Zn, and Ti. These interactions are crucial in defining the final outcome of AuNP-based sensing/removal of heavy metals. We have evaluated these interactions by analyzing the variations in the color and spectroscopic signals of functionalized AuNPs. Additionally, the obtained results were also compared and validated with the computational studies. It has been observed that citrate-AuNPs and GSH-AuNPs displayed high selectivity toward Cr and Mn with Eforce values of -23.4 and -14.0 kJ/mol, respectively. Likewise, the ascorbate-AuNPs displayed sensitivity for multiple ions, for example, Cd, Fe, and Mn, with an Eforce value of -19.6 kJ/mol. A detailed analysis focusing on the electrostatic charges, ionic sizes, and interaction energy values has been provided to show specific interactions between functionalized AuNPs and heavy metal ions. The respective mechanisms of interaction between heavy metal ions and functionalized AuNPs have been explored with the help of experimental and computational outcomes.

Abstract
An adept, rapid and novel water-soluble glutathione functionalized CdS quantum dots (GSH@CdS QDs) were fabricated using green pathway for sensing of heavy metal contamination prevalent in industrial wastewater. GSH@CdS QDs were facilely synthesized in an aqueous phase reaction and were effectively characterized using FT-IR, XRD, FESEM, HRTEM and EDX techniques. The distinct fluorescence characteristics of GSH@CdS QDs were explored and the QDs showed selective sensitivity towards mercury ions with a low limit of detection of 0.54 nM under optimal conditions. The detailed interaction between GSH@CdS QDs and Hg2+ and the probable fluorescence quenching mechanism were established in this study. In comparison to already reported fluorescent probes, GSH@CdS QDs showed high sensitivity, biocompatibility, long fluorescence stability and convenient removal of mercury ions. Graphical Abstract Facile green route for the fabrication of glutathione capped CdS quantum dots for fluorescence-based detection of toxic Hg2+ ions.

Abstract
Sensing of metal contaminants at ultralow concentrations in aqueous environments is vital in today's overpopulated world, with an extremely stringent limit (<5 ppb) for Cd2+ ions in drinking water. Here, we utilize sonochemically exfoliated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets functionalized with l-cysteine (Cys) as highly sensitive and selective two-dimensional (2D) materials for solid-state chemiresistors. We specifically targeted Cd2+ ions due to their high toxicity at low concentrations. MoS2-Cys nanosheets are fabricated using an ad hoc, low-complexity, one-pot synthesis method. Porous MoS2-Cys thin films with a high surface area are assembled from these nanosheets. Two-terminal chemiresistors incorporating MoS2-Cys films are demonstrated to be preferentially sensitive to Cd2+ ions at neutral pH, irrespective of other metal ions present in water flowing through the device. A 5 ppb concentration of the Cd2+ ions in the water stream increases the device resistivity by 20 times. Our devices operate at broad (1-500 ppb) range and fast (∼1 s) response times. Cd2+ is selectively detected because of preferential, size-driven adsorption at the interstitials between l-cysteine functional groups, combined with pH-controlled charge transfer that removes electronic gap states from MoS2. MoS2-Cys-based chemiresistors can be deployed in-line to detect metal ions without any need for additional offline measurements.

JOURNAL OF ANALYTICAL METHODS IN CHEMISTRY 2020; 2020:6026312.

Abstract
Development of selective colorimetric detectors that can use green-fabricated silver nanoparticles' (AgNPs) with localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) to rapidly, simply, and selectively detect Hg(II) ions was undertaken in this study. Onion extract was used for synthesising photo-induced green crystalline silver nanoparticles (NPs). The formation of nanoparticles is enhanced when ultrasound irradiation is present; bioligands could serve as stabilizing and reducing agents. Different methods of measurement, including UV-Vis, TEM, SEM/EDAX, FT - IR, and XRD, are effective for characterization of nanoparticles. The spherical nature of green-fabricated AgNPs is confirmed by TEM. High-density, spherical, and uniformly formed silver nanoparticle shapes were found in silver nanoparticle SEM images. The arrangement of AgNPs in the form of face-centered cubic structures was confirmed by XRD patterns. The formation of impurity-free AgNPs was confirmed using the EDAX analysis results. Hg2+ with excellent sensitivity was sensitively and selectively detected by employing green-synthesized silver nanoparticles. The reduction of Ag (1) to Ag (0) was confirmed by a slight increase in Hg (II) concentration and progressive reduction of green-synthesized AgNPs, whose absorbance changed abruptly. The reduction of LSPRs by the phosphate buffer medium enables AgNPs to sensitively and selectively detect Hg2+ ions by providing good environment. Besides, a selective, sensitive, simple, and rapid method that is proposed for detecting Hg (II) ions in samples of water is presented in the study. Harmful mercury ions in real samples of water (tap and ground water) can colorimetrically and selectively be detected using the AgNPs. The results showed an RSD of below 6% and over 92% of good recovery.

Abstract
: Microsystems and biomolecules integration as well multiplexing determinations are key aspects of sensing devices in the field of heavy metal contamination monitoring. The present review collects the most relevant information about optical biosensors development in the last decade. Focus is put on analytical characteristics and applications that are dependent on: (i) Signal transduction method (luminescence, colorimetry, evanescent wave (EW), surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), surface plasmon resonance (SPR)); (ii) biorecognition molecules employed (proteins, nucleic acids, aptamers, and enzymes). The biosensing systems applied (or applicable) to water and milk samples will be considered for a comparative analysis, with an emphasis on water as the primary source of possible contamination along the food chain.
