A new available multi-analyte fluorescent sensor based on a bisphenol A-quinoline conjugate (BFQ) was synthesized in two facile steps and was characterized systematically. BFQ exhibited an effectively selective and sensitive recognition toward Zn(2+)and Al(3+) cations in EtOH-H2O (v/v = 9/1) over other cations and F(-) anion in CH3CN over other anions with remarkably enhanced fluorescent intensities. According to the quantum yield (Φ) measurements, BFQ-Zn(2+), BFQ-Al(3+) and BFQ-F(-) complexes showed 16, 22 and 30 times higher Φ values than BFQ, respectively. The complexation properties of BFQ with Zn(2+), Al(3+) and F(-) ions were also examined by (1)H NMR titration experiments.

During the last decades, the use of innovative hybrid materials in energy storage devices has led to notable advances in the field. However, further enhancement of their electrochemical performance faces significant challenges nowadays, imposed by the materials used in the electrodes and the electrolyte. Such problems include the high solubility of both the organic and the inorganic anode components in the electrolyte as well as the limited intrinsic electronic conductivity and substantial volume variation of the materials during cycling.

Construction of single probes for simultaneous detection of common trivalent metal ions has attracted much attention due to higher efficiency in analysis and cost. A naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe K1 was synthesized for selective detection of Al, Cr and Fe ions. Fluorescence emission intensity at 534 nm of probe K1 in DMSO/HO (9:1, v/v) was significantly enhanced upon addition of Al, Cr and Fe ions while addition of other metal ions (Li, Na, K, Ag, Cu, Fe, Zn, Co, Ni, Mn, Sr, Hg, Ca, Mg, Ce, Bi and Au) did not bring about substantial change in fluorescence emission.

The exorbitant production costs associated with natural tannases pose a significant challenge to their widespread industrial utilization. Microbial expression systems provide a cost-effective method for enzyme production. In this study, a putative gene encoding the subtype B tannase (Gt-Tan) was cloned from Galactobacillus timonensis and expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells.

Mimosine, a non-essential amino acid derived from plants, has a strong affinity for binding divalent and trivalent metal cations, including Zn, Ni, Fe, and Al. This ability endows mimosine with significant antimicrobial and anti-cancer properties, making it a promising candidate for therapeutic applications. Previous research has demonstrated the effectiveness of mimosine-containing peptides as metal chelators, offering a safer alternative to conventional chelation agents.
