Near infrared (NIR) emission AgS quantum dots (QDs) are of great value for biochemical sensing with strong anti-interference and low toxicity. Herein, NIR fluorescence AgS QDs were synthesized successfully. Combined with the excellent oxidase-like characteristics of manganese dioxide (MnO) nanosheets, a fluorescence and colorimetric dual-mode sensor for sulfide anion was developed. MnO nanosheets could effectively catalyze the oxidation of TMB to produce blue TMB oxide (ox TMB), at the same time, the fluorescence of AgS QDs could be effectively quenched by fluorescence internal filtration effect (IFE) and dynamic quenching effect. The enzyme-like activity was weakened and the NIR fluorescence of AgS QDs was restored when sulfide anion (S) was added, due to the reduction of MnO to Mn.The linear ranges for fluorescence and colorimetric analysis of S were 2-250 μM and 0.3-50 μM, with detection limits of 0.6 and 0.215 μM, correspondingly. The dual-mode sensor had a wider detection range, higher sensitivity and shorter reaction time, which could be used for highly selective detection of S in different concentration ranges. In addition, it had been successfully applied to the determination of sulfide in water samples with satisfactory accuracy and sensitivity.

Although curcumin is a well-known natural polyphenol with many biological activities, its clinical application has been limited by low aqueous solubility and stability. Therefore, curcumin derivatives have been proposed to overcome these limitations and increase anticancer activity. This study tested curcumin derivatives with modified feruloyl moieties ( and ) and the β-diketo moiety () to better understand their anticancer mechanism against human bladder cancer cells.

Polydiacetylenes (PDAs) are conjugated polymers that are well known for their colorimetric transition from blue to red with the application of energetic stimulus. Sensing platforms based on polymerized diacetylene surfactant vesicles and other structures have been widely demonstrated for various colorimetric biosensing applications. Although less studied and utilized, the transition also results in a change from a non-fluorescent to a highly fluorescent state, making polydiacetylenes useful for both colorimetric and fluorogenic sensing applications.
