Herein, a fluorometric and colorimetric dual-mode assay platform used for α-glucosidase (α-Glu) activity sensing based on aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) of AuNCs was developed for the first time. The quantum yield (QY) and fluorescence lifetime of AuNCs were successfully ameliorated by Ce-triggered AIEE (Ce@AuNCs). Subsequently, on the basis of the inner filter effect (IFE) and dynamic quenching effect (DQE) between 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCIP) and Ce@AuNCs as well as the reduction of DCIP by ascorbic acid (AA) generated from α-Glu-catalyzed hydrolysis of L-ascorbic acid-2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl (AA2G), the marriage of fluorometric and colorimetric modes applied for α-Glu activity monitoring was achieved. Besides, the feasibility of this dual-mode sensing system was confirmed by the assays potential interfering substances and in real samples. In particular, this system was further applied to evaluate natural α-Glu inhibitors (AGIs) including luteolin, apigenin, and hesperidin. Overall, the multi-mode optical sensor newly designed here has the potential for the accurate discovery of natural anti-diabetes drugs and the therapy of diabetes.

In this work, the interaction behaviour of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with o-phenylenediamine (OPD) was studied to ascertain the nanozyme-substrate interaction. The UV-Vis absorption, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and zeta potential analysis revealed that the electron-rich nitrogen atoms in OPD showed a stronger affinity toward electron-deficient surface, indicating a stronger interaction between nanozyme and substrate molecules. Subsequently, under optimum conditions, AuNPs are used as nanozyme to catalyze the oxidation of OPD in the presence of HO.

The fluctuation of ion content has an important effect on human health and ecological environment. Herein, a novel colorimetric and fluorescent dual mode probe (DMHB) has been designed via the imine bond bridging of anthraquinone derivative dye and salicyl hydrazide. The DMHB displays significance wide-range pH dependent spectral behavior (pKa 5.

The DPE-based chromophores exhibit a large Stokes shift and maintain good fluorescence quantum yields. Remarkably, these chromophores demonstrate reversible colourimetric changes and a fluorometric 'on-off-on' switch in response to pH variations.

A novel probe NIR8 decorated with colorimetric, fluorometric, turn-on, and NIR properties was designed and synthesized using the chromenylium-cyanine platform for sensitive and selective quantification of Hg in real samples. The interaction between the probe and Hg resulted in the opening of the closed spirolactam ring of the chromenylium-cyanine platform, leading to a notable color shift from yellow to green. Concurrently, ratiometric spectral changes at 380 and 725 nm for UV-Vis and signal enhancement at 755 nm for fluorescence were observed.

Detections towards multiple analytes by one sensor remain a significant challenges. Herein, a high-sensitivity chemo-sensor ICZ-o-XFJ is designed and synthesized for the simultaneous detection of F and Al. Suffering from the ESIPT process, this sensor is colorless and almost non-emissive in solutions.
