Article Abstract
This study introduces a novel microfluidic polymer chip system that employs an embedded anionic surfactant (AS) ion-selective fluorescence optode (AS fluorescence optode) as a detector for measuring AS. The AS fluorescent optode comprises a lactone form of rhodamine B (L-RB) embedded in 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) membrane. The AS fluorescence optode demonstrated a linear correlation between fluorescence intensity peak heights and AS concentrations within the range of less than 20 µM under optimal flow conditions. The limit of detection for AS was approximately 0.06 µM. The microfluidic system was utilized to measure AS levels in environmental samples, such as river water and tap water.

In this study, we used three different potassium ionophores developed for ion-selective electrodes to fabricate nanoemulsion-type ion-selective optodes (NE-ISOs) with a pH-independent response mechanism based on cation exchange between a polarity-responsive cationic dye in the organic phase and potassium ions in the aqueous phase and compared their responses. As a result, the NE-ISO prepared with valinomycin as the typical ionophore showed an ideal response in which the initial fluorescence intensity decreased with increasing ion concentration, as the cationic dye was extruded out into the aqueous phase following extraction of potassium ions by valinomycin. On the other hand, when the same experiment was performed using a bis-crown-type ionophore with a long alkyl chain, the initial fluorescence intensity became extremely small and increased with increasing potassium ion concentration, indicating a completely opposite response behavior that cannot be explained by the conventional ion exchange model.

Nerve agents seriously threaten the viability of the contemporary environment and public health. In the current contribution, we have introduced a Schiff base-based probe, MIDA to "detect and degrade" sarin simulant, diethyl chlorophosphate (DCP) in solution and gaseous phases. MIDA is highly selective and sensitive towards DCP emitting a highly intensified yellow fluorescence having detection and quantification limits within the μM range.

Minimizing autofluorescence is a crucial step for enhancing fluorescence-based bioanalytical assays. Although inorganic "glow-in-the-dark" persistent luminescence phosphors are commonly used to achieve this, they require rare earth elements and complex synthetic procedures. In this work, we introduce a suite of chemo- and biosensors that leverage the ultralong phosphorescence of pyrene-doped benzophenone, a fully organic host-guest material.

This study presents an Hg ion-responsive ratiometric green-to-blue emitting ionic liquid (IL), trihexyltetradecylphosphonium hydroxyproline-1,3,6-trisulfonate (HPTIL), and its micro-optode, mHPTIL. Neat HPTIL functioned as a photoluminescent ink without a solvent, highlighting its effectiveness as a safekeeping script material and served as a green-to-blue-emitting Hg ion-responsive photoluminescent IL. Upon the introduction of heavy metal Hg ions into the water-suspended mHPTIL system, a noticeable ratiometric shift from greenish to bluish fluorescence was observed, exhibiting detection and quantification limits in the nanomolar (nM) range with the lowest LOD of 1.

Designing advanced photofunctional materials within the core of ionic liquids (ILs) has stimulated considerable attention within the scientific communities due to their impactful significance and physicochemical properties such as ionic nature, low melting point, non-volatility, and tunability without hampering their inherent photofunctionality. Herein, we have synthesized a photoluminescent IL, HTIL from 8-hydroxy pyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt [HPTS] and trihexyltetradecylphosphonium chloride ([TTP]Cl) by simple ionic exchange reaction. Water-dispersible IL-based low-dimensional materials referred to as nHTIL were developed by a reprecipitation technique and validated using various spectroscopic and microscopic analyses methods.
