Article Abstract
The ferrozine assay is a widely used colorimetric method for determining soluble iron concentrations. We provide evidence for a heretofore unrecognized interference of ferric ions (Fe(3+)) on ferrous iron (Fe(2+)) measurements performed in the dark. Fe(3+) concentrations affected the absorbance measurements, which linearly increased with incubation time.

Degradable fluorescent sensors present a promising portable approach for heavy metal ion detection, aiming to prevent secondary environmental pollution. Additionally, the excessive intake of ferric ions (Fe), an essential trace element for human health, poses critical health risks that urgently require effective monitoring. In this study, we developed a thermally degradable fluorescent hydrogel sensor (Eu-CDs@DPPG) based on europium-doped carbon dots (Eu-CDs).

Real-time visualization of nanoscale chemical transformations is critical to understanding morphological dynamics that influence catalytic and material properties; however, conventional optical methods remain limited by shallow penetration depths and persistent imaging artifacts. Here, we present low-angle rotational interferometric scattering microscopy (LRISM), a label-free imaging approach that achieves artifact-free, high-contrast imaging with high depths (>6 μm) into bulk solutions. By rapidly modulating the azimuthal angle of illumination, LRISM eliminates interference artifacts and extends imaging depth into the bulk solution.

The accelerated increase in atmospheric CO concentration is one of the most pressing problems at present. It is possible that this increase causes slight modifications in intracellular CO. The aim of this work was to determine whether CO at different concentrations can affect the oxidative damage caused by ciprofloxacin (CIP) in and to evaluate the possible implications of this effect for human health.

This work addresses the challenge of achieving point-of-care (POC) surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of small-molecule biomarkers in real samples without pretreatment. We synthesized multifunctional CoFeO/APTES/Ag hybrids through a simple chemical approach for label-free SERS detection of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA), a key biomarker of in food samples. The hard-magnetic CoFeO component enabled rapid magnetic separation, reaching enrichment equilibrium in just 5 min while reducing matrix interference.
