A simple pyrazoline-based ''turn off'' fluorescent sensor 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole (PFM) was synthesized and well characterized by different techniques such as FT-IR, H-NMR, C-NMR, and mass spectrometry. The synthesized sensor PFM was utilized for the detection of Fe ions. Fluorescence emission selectively quenched by Fe ions compared to other metal ions (Mn, Al, Fe, Hg, Cu, Co, Ni, Cd, Pb, and Zn) via paramagnetic fluorescence quenching and showed good anti-interference ability over the existence of other tested metals. Under optimum conditions, the fluorescence intensity of sensor quenched by Fe in the range of 0 to 3 μM with detection limit of 0.12 μM. Binding of Fe ions to PFM solution were studied by fluorescent titration, revealed formation of 1:1 PFM-Fe metal complex and binding constant of complex was found to be of 1.3 × 10 M. Further, the fluorescent sensor has been potentially used for the detection of Fe in environmental samples (river water, tap water, and sewage waste water) with satisfactory recovery values of 99-101%.

A new method was developed to quickly produce carboxymethyl hemicellulose (CM-Hemi) and fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) from sugarcane bagasse (SB). These materials were then combined with calcium chloride (CaCl₂) to create hydrogel sensors with antibacterial and antifungal properties. The CM-Hemi@Ca-N-CDs hydrogel was effective against both Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria compared to CM-Hemi@Ca which give no antibacterial activity.

This research presents a systematic review of the application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs, compounds with high vapor pressure at ambient temperature and normal pressure, are widely present in a variety of industrial and living environments. VOCs are not only hazardous to the environment but also have a severe impact on human health.

The detection of both Br and its derivative of tetrabutylammonium tribromide (TBATB) is a very important issue concerning their biological toxicity but remains challenging. Fluorescent sensing is one of the few methods possessing both selectivity and sensitivity. Moreover, it could be able to be utilized in biological system, but rarely reported.

The denatured bovine serum albumin (dBSA) is coupled with the CdTe/CdS quantum dot and the resulting CdTe/CdS@dBSA complex is assembled and retained in the poly(n-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogel via regulating temperature and pH to form the CdTe/CdS@dBSA-PNIPAM fluorescence hydrogel substrate, which is able to adsorb and sense cadmium ions (Cd). Based on this fluorescence hydrogel, a fluorescence and colorimetric dual-mode detection system is established to quantitatively detect Cd with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.88 nM for fluorescence detection and 11.
