The measurement of biologically relevant anions, such as fluoride, is an important task in analytical chemistry, in particular, for dental health and osteoporosis. Although a large number of fluoride probes are known, the applicability under relevant conditions is limited to a few examples. To improve this situation, BODIPY-amidothiourea dyes with varying hydrogen-bond donating strengths were developed, the most H-acidic of which (1 c) could detect F(-) from an inorganic source (NaF) in 50 % aqueous solution (DMSO/water 1:1, v/v) with 0.01 ppm sensitivity through selective fluorescence quenching by a photoinduced electron-transfer (PET) process. Use of the probe and a reference dye with a test-strip assay and a portable and rapidly recording lateral-flow fluorescence reader made determination of F(-) in neat aqueous solutions, such as spiked water samples and toothpaste extracts, possible in a self-referenced manner, achieving a detection limit of 0.2 ppm.

A new Hf(iv) based metal-organic framework with the UiO-66 (UiO = University of Oslo) topology was prepared via a standard modulated solvothermal reaction. The weakly emissive MOF material was well characterized via various analytical techniques. The parent MOF was then post-synthetically modified with a highly emissive pyrene based chemodosimeter probe without altering the parent framework structure.

There have been enormous efforts for developing the next generations of fluorometric lateral flow immunochromatographic strip (ICTS) owing to the great advances in fluorescent materials in these years. Here we developed one type of fluorometric ICTS based on ultrabright semiconducting polymer dots (Pdots) in which the traffic light-like signals were created by energy transfer depending on the target concentration. This platform was successfully applied for qualitatively rapid screening and quantitatively precise analysis of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in 10 min from merely one drop of the whole blood sample.
