Highly selective detection of Fe3+, Cd2+ and CH2Cl2 based on a fluorescent Zn-MOF with azine-decorated pores
摘要： The design and synthesis of sensitive and selective luminescent materials as chemical sensing agents is a fundamental goal in fluorescence assays. Considering high porosity, large surface area, excellent photoluminescence property of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), luminescent properties of a microporous azine-functionalized MOF, TMU-16, dispersed in different metal ions and solvents have been investigated systematically. The TMU-16 displays superb luminescence emission, and it can detect Fe(III) and Cd(II) ions with high selectivity, excellent sensitivity, and short response time (<1 min). The emission intensities of TMU-16 were quenched upon the addition of Fe3+ and increased upon the addition of Cd2+. The detection limits of TMU-16 for Fe3+/Cd2+ in DMF are estimated to be 0.2 and 0.5 μM, respectively. The effect of other metal ions on the fluorescence intensity of the MOF was also studied and other metal ions showed low interference response in recognition of Fe3+ and Cd2+. Furthermore, TMU-16 exhibits distinct solvent-dependent luminescent spectra with emission intensity significantly enhanced toward dichloromethane. More importantly, this is the first example of MOF-based luminescent sensor as efficient multifunctional fluorescence material which can use for selective sensing of Fe(III) and Cd(II) ions and small molecules such as CH2Cl2.

Graphene quantum dots and carbon nano dots for the FRET based detection of heavy metal ions
摘要： We demonstrate the development of a FRET based novel optical sensing system for the efficient detection of heavy metal pollutants. The studied sensing system is comprised of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) as donor and carbon nano dots (C-Dots) as an acceptor component. When these fluorescent nano-dots are within the FRET distance, fluorescence of the donor GQDs is quenched by the non-radiative energy transfer to acceptor C-Dots. Fluorescence lifetime is measured by time resolved photo-luminescence spectroscopic study to validate the FRET efficacy of the mix dot based sensor system. Upon gradual addition of heavy metals like arsenic (As5+) and mercury (Hg2+) into this sensor system, a significant amount of reduction in the investigated FRET signal is experienced. The detailed mechanisms of the molecular interactions between GQDs and C-Dots are thoroughly studied by UV–Visible absorption, infrared, steady state and time resolved spectroscopy.

Ultrathin and Isotropic Metal Sulfide Wrapping on Plasmonic Metal Nanoparticles for SERS-based Detection of Trace Heavy Metal Ions.
摘要： A facile and general strategy is presented for homogenous and ultrathin metal sulfide-wrapping on plasmonic metal (PM) nanoparticles (NPs) based on a thiourea-induced isotropic shell growth. This strategy is typically implemented just via adding the thiourea into pre-formed PM colloidal solutions containing target metal ions. The validity of this strategy is demonstrated by taking the wrapped NPs with Au core and CuS shell or Au@CuS NPs as an example. They are successfully fabricated via adding the thiourea and Cu2+ solutions into pre-formed Au NP colloidal solution. The CuS shell layer is highly homogenous (<10% in relative standard deviation of shell thickness), regardless of the NPs’ shape or curvature. The shell thickness can be controlled from tens down to 0.5 nm just by the addition amounts of the shell precursors. The formation of the shell layer on the Au NPs can be attributed to the alternative deposition of Cu2+ and S2- ions on the thiourea-modified surface of Au NPs in the solution, which induces the isotropic shell growth. Further, this strategy is of good universality. Many other sulfide-wrapped PM NPs, such as Ag@CuS, Au@PtS2, Au@HgS, Ag@Ag2S NPs and Ag@CuS nanorods have been successfully obtained with homogeneous and ultrathin shells. Importantly, such ultrathin sulfide-wrapped PM NPs can be used for SERS-based detection of trace heavy metal ions with strong anti-interference via ion exchange process between the metal sulfide shell and heavy metal ions. This study provides a simple and controllable route for wrapping the homogenous and ultrathin sulfide layers on the PM NPs, and such wrapped NPs have good practical applications in the SERS-based detection of trace heavy metal ions.

Tannic acid-derivatized graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots as an “on-off-on” fluorescent nanoprobe for ascorbic acid via copper(II) mediation
摘要： A microwave-assisted hydrothermal route was employed to prepare fluorescent tannic acid (TA)-derivatized graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots. The resulting dots display blue fluorescence (best measured at excitation/emission wavelengths of 350/452 nm) with a quantum yield as high as ~44%. The incorporated TA imparts a fluorescence switching behavior in that very low concentrations of Cu(II) can quench the fluorescence, while (AA) can restore it. It is presumed that AA causes Cu(II) to be transformed to Cu(I). Based on these findings, a fluorometric method was designed for AA detection. The probe allows AA to be detected with a 50 pM limit of detection and a linear analytical range that extends from 0.1 to 200 nM of AA. Real and spiked samples were successfully assayed by the probe to demonstrate its analytical applicability.

A Fluorescence Light-up Silver Nanocluster Beacon Modulated by Metal Ions and Its Application in Telomerase Activity Detection
摘要： DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs) have been extensively studied in recent years. The enhancement of fluorescence emission from the DNA-AgNCs is still being explored. Herein, we report a new study on the fluorescence enhancement of DNA-AgNCs induced by metal ions. The enhancement is greatly dependent on the primary sequence and secondary structure of DNA strands. Thus, a label-free AgNCs-based molecular beacon (MB) is explored for the detection of telomerase activity. Nonfluorescent MB-AgNCs in phosphate buffer emit a dramatic red fluorescence when Mg2+ is introduced, whereas Mg2+ has a limited effect on the weak fluorescence of DNA-AgNCs when the hairpin structure of MB is opened. Telomerase primer (TP) can be elongated by telomerase, resulting in the unfolding of MB via strand displacement reaction. Based on the different brightnesses of AgNCs produced by the two DNA templates, telomerase activity is detected. MB-AgNCs sensing platform provides a simple and low-costing method to detect telomerase activity and shows a great potential in the construction of cost-effective probes for biomolecular detection.

A highly efficient fluorescent material based on rare-earth-modified polyhydroxyalkanoates
摘要： Fluorescent materials play an important role in biomedical fields. However, the main types of fluorescent materials suffer from several disadvantages especially the biotoxicity, which largely restrict its wider applications in biological fields. In this study, a highly efficient rare-earth-modified fluorescent material was successfully designed and fabricated based on polyhydroxyalkanoates, which are known as biodegradable and biocompatible material. A new Functional-PHA polymer was microbially synthesized by engineered Halomonas bluephagenesis and was used as a basal matrix to generate the rare-earth-modified PHA. N-acetyl-L-cysteine-grafted PHA (NAL-grafted-PHA) was first produced via a UV-initiated thiol-ene click reaction and the rare earth metal ions (Eu3+ and Tb3+) were subsequently chelated onto the NAL-grafted-PHA through the coordination effect. The composite material exhibited intense photoluminescence properties under UV laser excitation, indicating the excellent features as fluorescent material. The enhanced hydrophilicity and superior biocompatibility of rare earth-chelated PHA were confirmed, suggesting its great potential application value in biomedical fields.

Novel rhodamine-based colorimetric and fluorescent sensor for the dual-channel detection of Cu2+ and Co2+/trivalent metal ions and its AIRE activities
摘要： A rhodamine hydrazone 1 bearing coumarin moiety was designed and prepared. Compound 1 exhibited high selectivity toward Co2+ and trivalent metal ions with fluorescence enhancement in CH3OH solution. However, 1 selectively responded to Al3+ in nearly pure H2O media and was further applied to monitor Al3+ in live cells. Moreover, 1 could also act as a colorimetric probe toward Cu2+ in either CH3OH or H2O solution. In addition, sensor 1 displayed aggregation-induced ratiometric emission (AIRE) activities in mixed H2O/CH3OH solution.

Photoinduced Electron Transfer in Carbon Dots with Long Wavelength Photoluminescence
摘要： Carbon dots have often been studied to investigate their unique optical properties such as excitation wavelength-independence emission. Carbon dots have also been shown to undergo electron transfer in different situations. This study endeavors to investigate the properties of carbon dots photoluminescence and electron transfer. Herein, the preparation and characterization of carbon dots which exhibit long wavelength photoluminescence has been reported. These carbon dots exhibit quenching when exposed to metal ions in proportion to the reduction potential of the metal, which experimental evidence has shown for the first time. This property of metal ion reduction potential-dependent quenching has been studied to show the collisional electron transfer from amine groups in carbon dots to the metal ions. Therefore, the photoluminescence in these carbon dots are directly related to organic functional groups on the surface of the carbon dots.

Alkali Metal Ions: A Secret Ingredient for Metal Nanocluster-Sensitized Solar Cells
摘要： The presence of alkali metal ions (AMIs) during the adsorption of thiolated Au nanoclusters (NCs) onto TiO2 plays a critical role in achieving high power conversion efficiency and suppressing anomalous current?voltage hysteresis in metal nanocluster-sensitized solar cells. This hidden role of the AMIs is intimately related to the adsorption strength between the NCs and TiO2, indicating the importance of seeking a comprehensive understanding of NC?TiO2 interfaces and devising interfacial engineering techniques to support the next advance in light energy conversion applications of NCs.

Bacteria functionalized gold nanoparticle matrix based fiber-optic sensor for monitoring heavy metal pollution in water
摘要： In the present study, E.coli B40 bacteria were explored as possible receptors on localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) based biosensor for sensing heavy metal ions viz. mercury (Hg2+) and cadmium (Cd2+) in water. The E.coli B40 bacteria were immobilized on gold nanoparticles (AuNP) coated fiber-optic probes by depositing two bi-layers of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes. The E.coli immobilized sensor probes were subjected to different concentrations of Hg2+ and Cd2+ ions, ranging from 0.5 ppb to 2000 ppb. These metal ions interact with the thiols and other surface groups present on the bacterial cells, resulting in the change of refractive index around AuNP coated sensor probes, thereby modulating the sensor response. The detection was performed by spiking de-ionized (DI) water and tap water with metal ions and the limit of detection was found to be 0.5 ppb. The proposed sensor could detect heavy metal ions within 10 min from a small sample (< 1 ml) and showed good selectivity towards heavy metal ions over other transition metal ions. Control studies performed using amino acids like cysteine as receptors were found to be less sensitive than the proposed scheme using bacterial cells.
