Article Abstract
Metal nanoclusters (NCs) have recently emerged as a novel class of luminescent nanomaterials and held significant potential in analytical chemistry. In this work, novel polyethyleneimine stabilized palladium nanoclusters (PEI-Pd NCs) were synthesized by chemical reduction at 60 °C for 6 h, and used as a fluorescent nanosensor for the detection of oxytetracycline (OTC). The spectral characteristics, surface structure and morphology of the Pd NCs were studied. The selectivity and stability of the nanosensor were also investigated. The experimental results showed that the Pd NCs had good biocompatibility, stability and photobleaching resistance in aqueous solution. The fluorescence quenching effect showed a good linear relationship with the degree of fluorescence quenching of Pd NCs and OTC in the range of 25-440 nM, with a correlation coefficient of 0.99. The limit of detection (LOD) of the proposed nanosensor for OTC was calculated to be 22 nM. The mechanism of determination was thought to be an inner filter effect (IFE) between OTC and Pd NCs. Based on this, we have established a new nanosensing analysis method for detecting OTC.

Rhodamine derivatives exhibiting inverted open-closed form fluorescence behavior redefines conventional photochemical paradigms while illuminating new structure-property relationships and fascinating application potentials. Herein, we report a donor-acceptor engineering strategy that activates closed form emission in rhodamines, achieving unprecedented Stokes shifts (>280 nm) while overcoming aggregation-caused quenching. The new class of rhodamines with inverted open-close form emission behavior are created through simultaneous substitution of N,N-diethyl groups with indole (donor) and conversion of spiro-lactam to benzene sulfonamide (acceptor).

Development of suitable carbohydrate-decorated, biocompatible, and stimuli-responsive fluorescent microgels that can selectively bind and detect proteins (such as lectins) is an important research topic. Herein, we report the development of mannose-decorated, dual-stimuli (temperature and pH)-responsive fluorescent poly(aminoamide) microgels, which can selectively bind to and thereby detect the presence of concanavalin A (Con A). The resultant stimuli-responsive microgels have a lower critical solution temperature (VPTT) of 37.

The interactions of three berberine mid-chain fatty acid salts ([BBR][C], n = 6, 7, 8) with lysozyme (Lyz) are investigated in detail using multi-spectroscopic and molecular docking techniques. Steady-state fluorescence and UV-visible absorption experiments suggest that the binding mechanism of [BBR][C] on Lyz is a static quenching with a binding ratio of 1:1. The compound [BBR][C] exhibits a moderate binding affinity toward Lyz.

The antibiotic contamination in aquatic environments, particularly in aquaculture systems, poses substantial risks to ecological balance and human health. To address this issue, we engineered a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe utilizing dual-emission carbon dots (D-CDs) synthesized from sustainable biomass carrot and nitrogen-rich precursors (melamine and o-phenylenediamine) through an efficient one-pot hydrothermal approach. The D-CDs exhibited dual emission peaks at 425nm and 540 nm under 370nm excitation.

This work presents the development of a highly sensitive, selective, and efficient aptamer-based fluorescent sensor for detecting cortisol in human urine. Carbon quantum dots-nucleic acid aptamer (CQDs-Apt) synthesized with excellent photoluminescent properties and stability, were selected as the fluorescent probe. In the presence of MoS-NSs, CQDs-Apt adsorbed onto the surface of MoS-NSs via electrostatic and π-π interactions, leading to strong and rapid fluorescence quenching due to static quenching mechanism between them.
