Article Abstract
BODIPY-based chemosensors are widely used owing to merits like good selectivity, high fluorescence quantum yield, and excellent optical stability. As such, a pH-switchable hydrophilic fluorescent probe, BODIPY-PY-(SONa), was developed for detection of Fe ion in aqueous solutions. BODIPY-PY-(SONa) revealed strong fluorescence intensity and was responsive to pH value in the range of 6.59-1.96. Additionally, BODIPY-PY-(SONa) showed good selectivity and sensitivity towards Fe. A good linear relationship for Fe detection was obtained from 0.0 μM to 50.0 μM with low detecting limit of 6.34 nM at pH 6.59 and 2.36 nM at pH 4.32, respectively. The response to pH and detection of Fe induced obvious multicolor changes. BODIPY-PY-(SONa) can also be utilized to quantitatively detect Fe in real water sample. Different mechanisms of Fe detection at investigated pH values were unraveled through relativistic density functional theory (DFT) calculations in BODIPY-PY-(SONa) and experiments of coexisting cations, anions and molecules. These results enabled us to gain a deeper understanding of the interactions between BODIPY-PY-(SONa) and Fe and provide valuable fundamental information for design of efficient multicolor chemosensors for Fe as well.

In this work, a hydrophilic Eu-based ratiometric fluorescent nanosensor (PAAC-Eu) was developed for Cu ion detection in aqueous solutions and imaging in living cells. The sensor was prepared a simple one-step reaction at room temperature, leveraging the synergistic coordination of commercially accessible polyacrylic acid (PAA) and coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (CCAH) with Eu ions. PAAC-Eu was easy to disperse in aqueous media and exhibited two characteristic emission bands at 406 nm and 618 nm, respectively, upon excitation at 350 nm.

Heteroatom doping is a promising strategy for optimizing the photocatalytic activity of semiconductors. However, relying solely on single-element doping often poses challenges in modulating the capabilities of semiconductors. Herein, we adopt a strategy of simultaneously modifying ZnInS with the double non-metallic elements nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) to form (N, O)-ZnInS.

Physical and photophysical properties of starch-based biopolymer films containing 5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (NTA) powder as a nanofiller were examined using atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), stationary UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy as well as resonance light scattering (RLS) and time-resolved measurements, and where possible, analyzed with reference to pristine NTA solutions. AFM studies revealed that the addition of NTA into the starch biopolymer did not significantly affect surface roughness, with all examined films displaying similar Sq values ranging from 70.7 nm to 79.

In this study, the interaction of crebanine, an isoquinoline alkaloid, with immunoglobulin G (IgG) was evaluated. Subsequently, the anticancer effects of crebanine in MCF-7 breast cancer cells were assessed. The results demonstrate that static quenching plays a key role in the fluorescence quenching of the IgG by crebanine, and some embedded hydrophobic patches of the IgG are exposed upon interaction with crebanine, while the characteristic β-sheet conformation of the IgG was almost preserved.

Microfluidic chips play a crucial role in wearable sensors for sweat collection. However, previously reported wearable microfluidic chips, such as those based on poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and paper, encounter sweat accumulation at the skin-sensor interface in practical applications, which consequently affects both sensing stability and wearing comfort. Herein, we propose a composite nanofiber membrane (CNMF)-based microfluidic chip for in situ sweat collection.
