Dual-fluorescent molecularly imprinted nanoparticles with a red-emissive carbon nanodot-doped silica core and a chlorogenic acid-imprinted fluorescent polymer layer are prepared and their use in ratiometric fluorometric analysis is described. Nanoparticle probes consisting of a shielded and stably emitting core and a shell with embedded binding sites that indicates the presence of an analyte with a change in emission allow for internally referenced measurements potentially accounting for detrimental influences from instrument drifts, light source fluctuations or sensor materials-related inhomogeneities.

Radiation therapy is a common cancer treatment but often damages surrounding healthy tissues, leading to unwanted side effects. Despite technological advancements aimed at improving targeting, minimizing exposure to normal cells remains a major challenge. High-Z nanoparticles, such as gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), are being explored as nano-radiosensitizers to enhance cancer treatment through physical, biological, and chemical mechanisms.

Chemically-synthesized Nanozymes that are widely used as alternatives to enzymes face challenges such as high precursor costs, complex preparation processes, and limited catalytic efficiency. To overcome these drawbacks, we introduce naturally derived nanozymes, nanomineralzymes, as a promising alternative, offering benefits like affordability, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. Chalcopyrite (CP, CuFeS) was sourced from a mineral deposit, and CP nanoparticles were produced by milling.

A fluorescence "turn-off-on" nanoprobe is designed by using europium-doped strontium molybdate perovskite quantum dots (Eu:SMO PQDs) for the sequential detection of hypoxanthine (Hx) and Fe. The Eu:SMO PQDs were prepared by the sol-gel method using Sr(NO), (NH)MoO.4HO, and Eu(OCOCH) as precursors.

Biogenic amines (BAs), produced in fish and seafood due to microbial contamination, pose significant health risks. This study introduces a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe, synthesized by integrating rhodamine 6G(R6G) and gold nanoparticles (AuNCs), for the sensitive and specific detection of BAs. The probe operates on the principle of BAs hydrolysis, catalyzed by diamine oxidase, to produce hydrogen peroxide (HO), which selectively quenches the fluorescence of AuNCs at 620 nm, while the fluorescence of R6Gat 533 nm remains unaffected.
