Sulphur dioxide (SO) and its derivatives (SO/HSO) are extensively utilized in food processing for their roles as bleaching agents, preservatives, and antimicrobials. Research has shown a strong association between high sulfur dioxide intake and various diseases. Consequently, developing rapid and accurate analytical techniques to monitor sulfur dioxide and its derivatives in food is of great value. This work designed a fluorescent probe ZR-I with a D-π-A structure using triphenylamine derivatives as electron donors. The probe ZR-I demonstrated high sensitivity and selectivity towards SO/HSO, along with strong anti-interference ability. The probe has effectively quantified SO/HSO in environmental and food samples, achieving a recovery rate of 97.65-104.15 %. Additionally, in situ tracking and imaging of SO/HSO in HepG2 cells and zebrafish were successfully achieved using ZR-I, which demonstrated high contrast and high sensitivity. To enhance the convenience and practicality of detection, a smartphone-based portable sensing platform has been developed, providing an efficient and practical tool for food safety assessment.

Microplastics have increasingly accumulated in sulfate- and organic matter-rich mangrove ecosystems, yet their effects on microbially mediated carbon and sulfur cycling in sediments remains poorly understood. In this study, we performed a 70-day anaerobic microcosm experiment to examine the effects of polylactic acid (PLA) microplastics with different sizes on sulfate reduction and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) degradation in mangrove sediments. Our results demonstrated that millimeter-scale PLA (mm-PLA) more effectively enhanced sulfate reduction, sulfur isotope fractionation, reduced sulfide production, and carbon dioxide (CO) emission compared to micrometer-scale PLA (m-PLA).

Overcoming tumor antioxidant defenses remains a critical challenge for reactive-oxygen-species-mediated tumor therapies. To address this problem, herein, a theranostic nanomedicine designated as CCM@MIB has been elaborately constructed. Homologous cancer cell membrane (CCM) camouflage significantly enhances the selective accumulation of the nanomedicine at tumor sites.

Sulfur dioxide (SO) is one of the hazardous gases during coal or hydrogen sulfide combustion in petrochemical and coal-related industries. Unfortunately, SO is released into the atmosphere in most SO-involved industries. The high concentration of SO in the atmosphere leads to acid rain, which leads to various damage and destruction of the environment.

Sulfur dioxide is a critical factor in evaluating food safety, as excessive intake can lead to various adverse reactions. Additionally, viscosity is a key indicator of food quality. However, to date, dual-response probes capable of detecting both viscosity and sulfur dioxide in food remain scarce.
