In this study, a fluorescent probe (GMP-Tb-SSA) utilizing lanthanide coordination polymer nanoparticles, GMP-Tb, as a sensing platform, and 5-sulfosalicylic acid (SSA) as a cofactor ligand was proposed for the detection of copper ions (Cu). GMP-Tb was synthesized by the self-assembly of guanine monophosphate (GMP) and terbium ion (Tb), and SSA was introduced as a sensitizer into the GMP-Tb network. Cu could efficiently inhibit the electron transfer from the ligand GMP to the central ion, Tb, leading to a significant quench of fluorescence of Tb. The method is highly selective with a linear range of 0 to 21 µM and a detection limit of 300 nM. It is not interfered by metal ions, amino acids, and other species, and can be successfully applied to the detection of Cu in real water samples.

The dynamic monitoring of cell death processes remains a significant challenge due to the scarcity of highly sensitive molecular tools. In this study, two hemicyanine-based probes (5a-5b) with D-π-A structures were developed for organelle-specific viscosity monitoring. Both probes exhibited correlation with the Förster-Hoffmann viscosity-dependent relationship (R > 0.

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.

Molecules that exhibit excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) have demonstrated great promise in fluorescent probes. The electronic effect of substituents has an important influence on the ESIPT process. In this study, we investigated the effects of substituents on the ESIPT mechanism and the photophysical behavior of single-benzene fluorophore (SBF) derivatives with computational chemistry methods.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition, imposing significant social and economic burdens globally. Despite extensive efforts have been devoted to developing fluorescent probes for Aβ imaging, further improving the luminescent efficiency of prevailing probes still remains a significant challenge. Herein, we investigated the inner mechanism of constructing high-efficient Aβ probes via a structural cyclization strategy.
