Manganese dioxide (MnO) nanosheet-based fluorescence sensors often use oxidase-like activity or wide absorption spectrum for detection of antioxidants. In those strategies, MnO nanosheets were reduced to Mn by antioxidants. However, few strategies emphasize the role of Mn obtained from MnO reduction in the design of the fluorescence sensor. Herein, we expanded the application of a MnO nanosheet-based fluorescence sensor by involving Mn in the detection process using ascorbic acid (AA) as a model target. In this strategy, carbon dots (CDs), MnO nanosheets, and tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonic acid (TPPS) comprise a ternary system for ratiometric fluorescence detection of AA. Initially, CDs were quenched by MnO nanosheets based on the inner filter effect, while TPPS maintained its fluorescence intensity. After the addition of AA, MnO nanosheets were reduced to Mn so that the fluorescence intensity of CDs was recovered and TTPS was quenched by coordination with Mn. Overall, AA triggered an emission intensity increase at 440 nm for CDs and a decrease at 640 nm for TPPS. The ratio intensity of CDs to TPPS ( / ) showed a good linear relationship from 0.5 to 40 μM, with a low detection limit of 0.13 μM for AA detection. By means of the alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-triggered generation of AA, this strategy can be applied for the detection of ALP in the range of 0.1-100 mU/mL, with a detection limit of 0.04 mU/mL. Furthermore, this sensor was applied to detect AA and ALP in real, complex samples with ideal recovery. This novel platform extended the application of MnO nanosheet-based fluorescence sensors.

Glutathione (GSH) is a key biomarker closely associated with cancer, and its content varies greatly between normal cells and cancer cells. However, intracellular detection of GSH was challenging because existing probes not only have a long detection time but also have fluorescence in the blue-green region that overlaps with the biological matrix's spontaneous fluorescence, thus affecting the detection accuracy. Therefore, a new red fluorescent nano-probe was needed to rapidly and accurately detected GSH within the biological matrix.

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and AChE inhibitors play critical roles in the early diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, a fluorescence/colorimetry/smartphone triple-mode sensing platform was constructed for both AChE activity monitoring and AChE inhibitor screening by exploring a Cu (I) compound, CuI (SR) (R = CHCHNH), as a fluorescent probe. In comparison of most other fluorescent probes, CuI (SR) presented exceptional stability against pH, temperature, UV irradiation, redox agents, and metal ions, as well as good recyclability due to its unique chemical structure.

In this work, a simple and sensitive ratiometric fluorescence probe to detect isoniazid (INH) was developed on the basis of carbon dots and MnO nanosheets (MnO NS). Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (FMT-CDs) were synthesized by microwave method using formononetin (FMT) in ammonia water. The oxidase-like activity of MnO NS was utilized to oxidize non-fluorescent o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to 2, 3-diaminophenazine (DAP) with orange fluorescence.

This study investigates the catalytic potential of anionic MnO nanosheets (Mn), a cationic covalent organic Framework (COF), and their composites (CM, C2M, and CM2) with varying Mn weight percentages for arsenic removal from groundwater. The catalysts were used as activators of sodium sulfite (SS) under light conditions, enabling the pre-oxidation of arsenic (III) (As3) to arsenic(V) (As5), followed by the adsorption of As5 for complete arsenic removal from water. The Mn-COF-SS systems (C2M, CM, CM2) exhibited superior performance compared to Mn and COF alone, highlighting the dual functionality of the composites as both oxidizing agents and effective adsorbents for arsenic species.

Background: Simple, fast and low-cost paper-based analytical devices (PADs) have a good application prospect for point-of-care detection of GSH. However, effective immobilization of functional nanomaterials onto cellulose, as a critical factor in the construction of PADs, presents numerous difficulties and challenges.
