Glucose monitoring with high sensitivity and accuracy in the cerebrospinal fluid is a challenge for evaluating the role of glucose in the physiological and pathological processes. In this work, a ratiometric fluorescent probe for sensing glucose was developed. In the probe, the gold nanoclusters protected by ovalbumin played the role as the reference of fluorophore and the Alizarin Red S-3-aminophenyl boronic acid immobilized on the poly(N-acryloxysuccinimide) acted as both the response signal and specific recognition unit for sensing glucose. Once the ratiometric fluorescent probe reacted with glucose in the biological system, its fluorescence intensity at 567 nm was quenched, while the fluorescence intensity at 610 nm was essentially unchanged. In addition, the prepared ratiometric fluorescent probe showed higher stability against environmental effects. As a result, the present ratiometric fluorescent probe was successfully used for monitoring of glucose in the rat brain following the cerebral calm/ischemia.

With the development and improvement of analysis and detection systems, low-toxicity and harmless detection systems have received much attention, especially in the field of food detection. In this paper, a low-toxicity dual-emission molecularly imprinted fluorescence sensor (CdTe QDs@SiO/N-CDs@MIPs) was successfully designed for highly selective recognition and visual detection of tetracycline (TC) in food samples. Specifically, the non-toxic blue-emission N-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) with high luminous performance acted as the response signals to contact TC via the covalent bond between amino and carboxyl groups.

Preparation of carbon dots (CDs) from biomass waste is of great interest due to its low cost synthesis, environmental compatibility and functionalization without adding dangerous chemicals. Herein, S-doped carbon dot (SCD) was synthesized using agricultural waste as carbon precursors and modified in-situ with rhodamine B dye (SCD@RHB) to construct efficient flouresent probe. SCD@RHB was loaded into HKUST-1 metal-organic framework (SCD@RHB/HKUST-1) and the probe was employed as ratiometric flouresent (RF) sensor for the determination of ciprofloxacin (CIP) antibiotic in trace level.

Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is a commonly used antibiotic, but its abuse may cause bacterial resistance, posing a high risk to the environment and human health. Herein, based on the molecular imprinting technology, this study proposed a ratiometric fluorescence sensor employing the "post-doping" strategy, which aims to be rapid, selective, and visually easy-to-use for CIP detection to address antibiotic residues and environmental risks. Specifically, by exploiting the "antenna effect" of lanthanide metal ions (Ln), terbium (III) (Tb) chosen as a fluorescence-assisted functional monomer as well as the red emitting CdTe quantum dots (QDs) as the internal reference signal were introduced into multi-emission Tb-CdTe@SiO@MIPs (TbMIPs).

As an important biological indicator, the abnormity of the lysozyme level is closely related to many diseases. Herein, we devise a novel ratiometric fluorescence aptasensor for lysozyme based on the controllable excimer formation of a perylene probe, N, N'-bis(6-caproic acid)-3,4:9,10-perylene diimide (PDI) induced by cationic silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). Binding of lysozyme aptamer with multiple phosphate groups to cationic Ag NPs strongly hinders the formation of excimer, yielding intense monomer fluorescence of PDI probe.

The problem of excessive use and abuse of antibiotics in the environment and food biology is becoming increasingly prominent, and norfloxacin (NOR) is widely used as an inexpensive and broad-spectrum antibiotic drug. Therefore, rapid and effective detection of antibiotics and residues in biological samples has become a demand of the times. This article describes a ratiometric fluorescence sensor based on molecular imprinting technology for the rapid and visual detection of NOR.
