AI Article Synopsis

  • A novel fluorescent sensor called CPM has been developed to specifically detect calcium (Ca) and fluoride (F) ions, showing strong fluorescence when interacting with Ca compared to other metal ions.
  • The CPM-Ca complex can selectively identify fluoride amongst various anions, boasting detection limits of 5.81 × 10^-6 M for Ca and 4.28 × 10^-6 M for F in a buffered aqueous solution.
  • Various methods such as UV-vis titration and fluorescence imaging confirm that CPM is capable of penetrating cells, allowing for effective detection of Ca and F within living cells.

Article Abstract

A novel fluorescent sensor CPM for relay detecting Ca and F based on coumarin has conveniently synthesized and characterized. The sensor CPM showed highly fluorescence enhancement to Ca over other metal ions, and the CPM-Ca complex could selectively recognize F among other anions. The limits of detection for Ca and F were 5.81 × 10 M and 4.28 × 10 M in aqueous solution (DMF/HEPES buffer 1:1 v/v, 10 mM, pH = 7.2), respectively. Their sensing mode had been testified by Job's plots, UV-vis titration, H NMR titrations, ESI-mass, fluorescence and DFT calculations. The fluorescence imaging indicated that CPM was cell-permeable and could be used to effectively detect Ca and F within living cells.

This study investigates the geochemical characteristics of rare earth elements (REEs) in highland karstic bauxite deposits located in the Sierra de Bahoruco, Pedernales Province, Dominican Republic. These deposits, formed through intense weathering of volcanic material, represent a potentially valuable REE resource for the nation. Surface and subsurface soil samples were analyzed using portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) and a NixPro 2 color sensor validated with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES).

Innovative double-emission carbon dots (DE-CDs) were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method using fennel and m-phenylenediamine (m-PD) as precursors. These DE-CDs exhibited dual emission wavelengths at 432 and 515 nm under different excitations, making them highly versatile for fluorescence-based applications. The fluorescence of the DE-CDs was efficiently quenched by tetracycline (TC) through the inner filter effect (IFE), allowing for the construction of a sensitive dual-response fluorescent sensor.

() is a major pathogenic bacterium responsible for bacterial foodborne diseases, making its rapid, specific, and accurate detection crucial. In this study, we develop a ratiometric biosensor based on the recombinase polymerase amplification-clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR associated protein 12a (RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a) system and Eu-metal-organic framework (Eu-MOF) fluorescent nanomaterials for the high-sensitivity detection of , combining with RPA for efficient isothermal amplification, this sensor enhances specificity and sensitivity by utilizing the target activation of CRISPR/Cas12a. The Eu-MOF serves a dual function, providing stable red fluorescence as a reference signal and adsorbing FAM-labeled probes for fluorescence quenching, forming a dual-signal system that significantly reduces background interference.

Over recent years, the LUMinescent AntiBody Sensor (LUMABS) system, utilizing bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), has emerged as a highly effective method for antibody detection. This system incorporates NanoLuc (Nluc) as the donor and fluorescent protein (FP) as the acceptor. However, the limited Stokes shift of FP poses a challenge, as it leads to significant spectral cross-talk between the excitation and emission spectra.
