Proton Triggered Colorimetric and Fluorescence Response of a Novel Quinoxaline Compromising a Donor-Acceptor System
摘要： Quinoxaline-based novel acid-responsive probe Q1 was designed on the basis of a conjugated donor-acceptor (D-A) subunit. Q1 shows colorimetric and fluorometric changes through protonation and deprotonation in dichloromethane. With the addition of the trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), UV-vis absorption spectral changes in peak intensity of Q1 was observed. Moreover, the appearance of a new peaks at 284 nm 434 nm in absorption spectra with the addition of TFA indicating protonation of quinoxaline nitrogen and form Q1.H+ and Q1.2H+. The emission spectra display appearance of new emission peak at 515 nm. The optical property variations were supported by time resolved fluorescence studies. The energy band gap was calculated by employing cyclic voltammetry and density functional calculations. Upon addition of triethylamine (TEA) the fluorescence emission spectral changes of Q1 are found to be reversible. Q1 shows color changes from blue to green in basic and acidic medium, respectively. The paper strip test was developed for making Q1 a colorimetric and fluorometric indicator.

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.

A new multi-analyte fluorogenic sensor for efficient detection of Al <sup>3+</sup> and Zn <sup>2+</sup> ions based on ESIPT and CHEF features
摘要： The fluorogenic chemosensor 3-(((2-hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)imino)methyl)-[1,10-biphenyl]-4-ol (H2L) efficiently detects Zn2+ and Al3+ ions and subsequently fluoride ion in methanol–water (4/1, v/v, pH = 7.2) solution. The probe itself is non-emissive but upon treatment with Al3+ and Zn2+, it exhibits high fluorescence emission at two different wavelengths of 546 nm and 529 nm, respectively. Both excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and chelation enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) processes play important roles in the enhancement of fluorescence intensity. Chelation of Zn2+ and Al3+ with the probe (H2L) inhibits CQN isomerization and ESIPT which consequently enhances the emission intensity. The emission intensity of H2L–Al3+ is selectively quenched upon titration with F- anions. The structure of the probe is confirmed by the single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The electronic structure and sensing mechanism of the probe (H2L) are supported by density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT).

Plasmon-Enhanced Fluorescent Sensor based on Aggregation-Induced Emission for the Study of Protein Conformational Transformation
摘要： The alteration in protein conformation not only affects the performance of its biological functions, but also leads to a variety of protein-mediated diseases. Developing a sensitive strategy for protein detection and monitoring its conformation changes is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of protein conformation diseases. Herein, a plasmon-enhanced fluorescence (PEF) sensor is developed, based on an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecule to monitor conformational changes in protein, using prion protein as a model. Three anthracene derivatives with AIE characteristics are synthesized and a water-miscible sulfonate salt of 9,10-bis(2-(6-sulfonaphthalen-2-yl)vinyl)anthracene (BSNVA) is selected to construct the PEF–AIE sensor. The sensor is nearly non-emissive when it is mixed with cellular prion protein while emits fluorescence when mixed with disease-associated prion protein (PrPSc). The kinetic process of conformational conversion can be monitored through the fluorescence changes of the PEF–AIE sensor. By right of the amplified fluorescence signal, this PEF–AIE sensor can achieve a detection limit 10 pM lower than the traditional AIE probe and exhibit a good performance in human serum sample. Furthermore, molecular docking simulations suggest that BSNVA tends to dock in the β-sheet structure of PrP by hydrophobic interaction between BSNVA and the exposed hydrophobic residues.

A sensitive polymer dots fluorescent sensor for determination of α-L-fucosidase activity in human serum
摘要： α-L-Fucosidase (AFu) is an important biomarker for early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and fucosidosis. In this study, a novel, sensitive and selective polymer dots (PDs) fluorescent sensing strategy based on inner filter effect was firstly developed for AFu activity determination. The PDs with a high quantum yield of 53.6% were synthesized by a mild one-pot method. The detection mechanism of this strategy was based on inner filter effect between PDs and p-nitrophenol (PNP) which was the hydrolyzate of 4-nitrophenyl-α-L-fucopyranoside (PNPF) catalyzed by AFu. The absorption of PNP overlapped the fluorescence excitation spectrum of the PDs, which resulted in a fluorescence quenching or weakening of PDs. The sensing system showed a good linear relationship within 0.01-0.9 U L-1 and provided a low AFu detection limit of 0.001 U L-1 (S/N=3). This PDs sensor were successfully applied for the determination of AFu in human serum samples.

A novel rhodamine-based turn-on probe for fluorescent detection of Au3+ and colorimetric detection of Cu2+
摘要： In this work, we design and synthesize the novel probe RC through introduction the 1-aza-4,13-dithia-15-crown-5 ring into the structure of rhodamine 6G hydrazide, where the N atom of crown ring is responsible for quenching of rhodamine fluorescence. The compound obtained behaves as multifunctional cation sensor providing selective fluorescent response to Au3+ and selective colorimetric response to Cu2+ ions in aqueous acetonitrile (1/1, v/v) at pH 7.0. The use of 10-5 M RC solution allowed reliable determination of target cations in the presence of a wide range of environmentally relevant ions with detection limits of 2×10-6 M and 5×10-7 M for gold and copper, respectively.

Pyrene-SH functionalized OTFT for detection of Hg2+ ions in aquatic environments
摘要： Mercury ion (Hg2+) sensor based on bottom gate top contact organic thin film transistor (OTFT) was fabricated. The OTFT channel area was functionalized with pyrene that contain thiol group, which has strong binding affinity toward Hg2+ ion. The OTFT sensor exhibited a charge mobility of 0.28 cm2 V–1 s–1, a threshold voltage of -22.3 V and on-to-off ratio 103. The sensor shows high selectivity to Hg2+ ion over other two valence metal ions. OTFT sensor exhibited high sensitivity to Hg2+ ion, indicated by increasing of drain current after exposed to different concentration of Hg2+ ion ranging from 1 mM to 0.01 μM. Moreover, the OTFT sensor capability for practical application was also demonstrated by sensing the present of 25 μM of Hg2+ ion in tap, drinking and seawater samples.

A high-performance room temperature methanol gas sensor based on alpha-iron oxide/polyaniline/PbS quantum dots nanofilm
摘要： A high-performance room temperature methanol gas sensor based on alpha-iron oxide/polyaniline/lead sulfide quantum dots (α-Fe2O3/PANI/PbS QDs) nanofilm was demonstrated in this paper, among which the α-Fe2O3 was an urchin-shaped hollow microsphere. The sensing film was fabricated on an epoxy substrate with interdigital electrodes via successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction technique. The prepared α-Fe2O3/PANI/PbS QDs nanocomposite was examined by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning election microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectrum. The methanol sensing performances of the α-Fe2O3/PANI/PbS QDs film sensor were investigated against methanol from 10 to 100 ppm at room temperature. The experimental results indicated that the methanol sensor in this work had an excellent response, outstanding selectivity and good repeatability at room temperature. The underlying sensing mechanism of the α-Fe2O3/PANI/PbS QDs film toward methanol was ascribed to a series of interactions and changes on the surface of thin films, which make their resistance change greatly. Larger surface area and much more active adsorption sites also played an important role.

Dopamine-functionalized upconversion nanoparticles as fluorescent sensors for organophosphorus pesticide analysis
摘要： Organophosphorus pesticide (OP) residues in agricultural products, herbal medicines and environment have attracted increasing concerns because they cause high healthy risk. Herein, a tyrosinase-mediated photoinduced electron transfer system was constructed for OPs analysis by using dopamine-functionalized upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) as fluorescent (FL) sensors. Dopamine quinone was produced by tyrosinase-mediated oxidation of dopamine on the surface of UCNPs, which acted as electron accepter to quench the FL emission of UCNPs. The FL quenching was inhibited by OP since it inhibited the activity of tyrosinase. Chlorpyrifos was used as a model analyte to investigate the feasibility of the FL sensor for the analysis of OPs. Under the optimal conditions, chlorpyrifos can be analysed in a wide range of 1.0 ? 1000 ng mL?1, with a detection limit of 0.38 ng mL?1 (3σ). Some other groups pesticides, including organonitrogen pesticide, organochlorine pesticide and chloronicotinyl insecticide all showed negligible interference. The proposed sensor was successfully used to analyse chlorpyrifos spiked in Balloonflower and Angelica with acceptable recovery values of 95.4–120.0%, demonstrating its application potential for real samples. It exhibits some advantages like low cost, high sensitivity and free of autofluorescent interference and photobleaching.

Ethanol sensing properties and reduced sensor resistance using porous Nb2O5-TiO2 n-n junction nanofibers
摘要： One-dimensional (1D) and porous Nb2O5-TiO2 n-n junction nanofibers with different Nb molar ratios have been synthesized by a simple electrospinning approach. A decrease in the average grain size and consequently an increase in the specific surface area were observed due to the introduction of Nb2O5 into TiO2 nanofibers. In comparison with pure TiO2 nanofibers, the Nb2O5-TiO2 nanofibers exhibited improved ethanol sensing response and a reduction in electrical resistance. The optimum operation temperature was reduced from 300 °C for pure TiO2 to 250 °C for Nb2O5-TiO2. The best sensing property was found for Nb2O5-TiO2 with 6 mol% Nb2O5, showing the highest response of 21.64–500 ppm ethanol at 250 °C, which was 2.79 times as high as that of pure TiO2 nanofibers at 300 °C. The reduction of Nb2O5-TiO2 based sensor resistance was attributed to the substitution of Ti4+ by Nb5+ ions and the formation of n-n junctions between Nb2O5 nanoparticles and TiO2 nanoparticles. The enhancement sensing mechanism of Nb2O5-TiO2 nanofibers was mainly ascribed to the enhanced resistance modulation owing to the substitution of Ti4+ by Nb5+ ions, formation of n-n junctions, and high surface area as well as small grain size of Nb2O5-TiO2 nanofibers.
