As the contamination and enrichment in food chain of levofloxacin (LV) antibiotics have caused a significant threat to life safety, the instant detection of LV has become an urgent need. Here, a PDI-functionalized imine-based covalent organic framework (PDI-COF300) was prepared by the electrostatic self-assembly method as fluorescent probe for smartphone visual detection of LV, which exhibited excellent fluorescence quantum yield (82.68%), greater stability, high sensitivity with detection limit of 0.303 μM. Based on the results of molecular docking and Stern-Volmer equation, the LV detection by PDI-COF300 was mainly a static quenching process through π-π stacked hydrophobic interactions and fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Besides, PDI-COF300 was applied to LV detection in environmental medium and milk samples with recoveries from 85.56% to 108.34% and relative standard deviations <2.70%. This work also provided a new general strategy for using PDI-COF in smartphone devices and fluorescent papers for LV fluorescence detection and microanalysis.

Developing a fluorescence sensing platform for point-of-care detection of low abundance biomarkers is highly valuable for early diagnosis of disease. Herein, a biomimetic fluorescence-enhanced platform based on photonic crystals and DNAzyme walker was constructed and further applied to visualize and quantify the miRNA-21 in biological samples. The DNAzyme walker was orthogonally activated by the target miRNA-21, which enabled the unlocking of the DNAzyme walker strand and the subsequently repeated substrate cleavage, thus generating enhanced fluorescence signals.

Development of accurate, convenient and portable methods for monitoring 4-aminophenol (4-AP) is extremely important because of its strong toxicity. Here, a ratiometric fluorescence sensor based on Ag-enhanced luminescence of Tb-DNA complexes has been presented for the detection of 4-AP. The luminescence of Tb-DNA complexes is enhanced about 30 times by Ag, which can trigger energy transfer from DNA to Tb more efficiently.

Unreasonable or illegal utilization of pesticides may lead to pollution of agricultural products, especially with some persistent but effective pesticides. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop sensitive and rapid methods for pesticide detection to ensure the safety of agricultural products. Herein, a dual-mode ratiometric sensing system utilizing two gold nanoclusters (G/R-AuNCs) was designed and constructed for paraquat (PQ) detection, a typical, highly toxic, widely used pesticide.

Organicphosphorus is a ubiquitous pesticide that has potential hazards to human health and environmental well-being. Therefore, the precise identification of residues of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) emerges as an urgent necessity. A ratiometric fluorescent sensor for the detection of OPs by leveraging the catalytic activities of Ce and Ce on the two fluorescent substrates 4-Methylumbelliferyl phosphate (4-MUP) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) correspondingly was designed.

Objective: The care of patients with dysphonia will change due to the growing shortage of specialists, demographic change, and digitalization. To counteract the associated problems in patient care, the LAOLA app demonstrator is to be developed. In the future, patients will receive exercise videos for their training from their treating speech and language pathologist (SLP) via LAOLA.
