A probe with an isothiocyanate group was synthesized and evaluated for its HS sensing ability. Upon addition of HS, the probe exhibited ratiometric properties during absorption with a red-shift. The probe exhibited fluorescent off-on responses towards HS via the ESIPT process, due to the conversion of isocyanate into amine. UV-vis, fluorescence, and H NMR spectroscopic analyses were performed to investigate the sensing mechanism. The probe has a large Stokes shift, short response time, and low detection limit. It can be used to estimate HS levels within the range of 0-36 nM. The practical applicability of the probe was demonstrated using water samples and living cells.

Antibiotic residues in milk pose public health risks by promoting antimicrobial resistance, necessitating advanced detection methods. This study presents a dual-color "turn-on" aptasensor for simultaneous detection of ampicillin (AMP) and oxytetracycline (OTC). Aptamer-functionalized silica nanoparticles doped with Rhodamine B isothiocyanate (apt-RBITC@SiO) and Alexa Fluor 488 (apt-AF488@SiO) serve as fluorescence probes, while multicore iron oxide nanoparticles (MIONs) act as capture probes.

A ratiometric fluorescence sensor for detecting Escherichia coli (E. coli) was fabricated based on the fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled zirconium (Zr)-tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonic acid (TPPS) hydrate metal-organic frameworks (ZTMs@FITC). The ZTMs have strong red fluorescence emission at 683 nm, which can be quenched by Cu.

This study presents the development of cellulose acetate nanofiber aerogels (CA NFAs) as a novel solid-phase carrier for ratiometric fluorescence sensors, designed for detecting volatile amines, which is critical for monitoring the freshness of aquatic products. The sensors were functionalized with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) as an indicator and protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) as an internal reference, which were covalently attached to the cellulose backbone. The FITC/PPIX-CA NFAs were fabricated using electrospinning and freeze-drying techniques, resulting in a 3D porous structure that significantly enhanced the mass transfer of target gas molecules and their interaction with probe molecules.

Developing a versatile probe for activity detection of protease is of significant importance due to its crucial roles in food processing, disease diagnosis, and pharmaceuticals. However, the sensitivity of probe towards interfering agents especially in complex samples hindered its development. Here, casein-directed gold nanoclusters (casein-AuNCs) were fabricated in a household microwave oven in 30 s, which displayed strong red emission with a large Stokes shift of 310 nm and high storage stability.

Oxazole, a versatile and significant heteroarene, serves as a bridge between synthetic organic chemistry and applications in the medicinal, pharmaceutical, and industrial fields. Polycyclic aromatic compounds with amino groups substituted at the 2-position of an oxazole, such as 2-aminonaphthoxazoles, are expected to be functional probes, but their synthetic methods are extremely limited. Herein, we describe electrochemical reactions of 3-amino-2-naphthol or 3-amino-2-anthracenol and isothiocyanates in DMSO, using a graphite electrode as an anode and a platinum electrode as a cathode in the presence of potassium iodide (KI), which afford -arylnaphtho- and -arylanthra[2,3-]oxazol-2-amines via cyclodesulfurization.
