Highly Sensitive Ratiometric Fluorescent Paper Sensors for the Detection of Fluoride Ions.

ABSTRACT: Two sensitive and ratiometric fluorescent probes (probe I and probe II) were developed for the detection of fluoride ions. Probe I can detect fluoride ions quantitatively within a range of 0-6 ?M and a detection limit of 73 nM, while probe II has a range of 0-40 ?M and a detection limit of 138 nM. The test strips from probe I are quickly able to recognize F- (5 min) inside of the F- safety level in drinking water (1.0 mg/L, ?5 ?M) under 254 nm ultraviolet light, and the test strips from probe II quickly recognize F- (12 min) in dangerously high F- levels in water (4.0 mg/L, ?21 ?M) under 254 nm ultraviolet light. This combination of fluorescent paper sensors from probe I and probe II can be used as a simple and convenient tool to determine whether water is safe to drink or dangerous.

Rationally designed upconversion nanoprobe for simultaneous highly sensitive ratiometric detection of fluoride ions and fluorosis theranostics.

Project description:For many years, fluorosis has been known as a worldwide disease which seriously diminishes quality of life through skeletal embrittlement and hepatic damage. Aiming to develop novel drugs for simultaneous fluorosis diagnosis and therapy, in this work we explore the feasibility of a novel pyrogallic acid-titanium(iv) complex-modified upconversion nanoprobe (UCNP-PA-Ti) for F- capture and real-time quantification. Utilizing the strong interaction between Ti4+ and F-, the modified PA-Ti decomposes in F--containing solution, which not only weakens the FRET but results in upconversion luminescence (UCL) recovery. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate a highly sensitive F- UCL response and therapeutic efficiency, which was promising for successful UCL image monitoring and the therapeutic process. Long blood circulation time and low toxicity ensured their safe application for fluorosis theranostics. Our work provides a new possibility for F- concentration detection within fluorosis therapeutic periods and encourages the development of novel drugs for fluorosis theranostics.

Ratiometric Fluorescent Nanoprobe for Highly Sensitive Determination of Mercury Ions.

Project description:In this study, a novel dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent nanoprobe (RFN) was synthesized and ultilized for highly sensitive determination of mercury ions. In this nanoprobe, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) doped silica (SiO2) served as a reference signal, FITC-SiO2 microspheres were synthesized and modified with amino groups, and then Au Nanoclusters (AuNCs) were combined with the amino groups on the surface of the FITC-SiO2 microspheres to obtain the RFN. The selectivity, stability, and pH of the RFN were then optimized, and the determination of mercury ions was performed under optimal conditions. The probe fluorescence intensity ratio (F520 nm/F680 nm) and Hg2+ concentration (1.0 × 10-10 mol/L to 1.0 × 10-8 mol/L) showed a good linear relationship, with a correlation coefficient of R2 = 0.98802 and a detection limit of 1.0 × 10-10 mol/L, respectively. The probe was used for the determination of trace mercury ion in water samples, and the recovery rate was 98.15~100.45%, suggesting a wide range of applications in monitoring pollutants, such as heavy metal ion and in the area of environmental protection.

Ratiometric fluorescent test paper based on silicon nanocrystals and carbon dots for sensitive determination of mercuric ions.

Project description:Classical dye absorption-based pH test papers are widely used to measure the degree of acidity of media for quantification or semi-quantification by the observation of the naked eye on the variation of colour. However, it remains a challenging task to extend portable and cheap methods to a wide range of analytes for accurate quantification. Here, we report a dosage-sensitive test paper for the assay of mercury ions (Hg2+) with wide colour evolution. The ratiometric fluorescent probe was prepared by mixing blue-emission silicon nanocrystals (Si NCs) and red-emission carbon dots (r-CDs). The Si NCs serve as the reaction site and the r-CDs as the internal reference. Upon the addition of Hg2+, the blue fluorescence of the Si NCs was quenched, while the red fluorescence of the r-CDs remained constant, resulting in the consecutive fluorescence colour changes from blue to orange red. The probe demonstrates high selectivity and sensitivity of the visualization assay of Hg2+ with a detection limit of 7.63?nM. Moreover, we printed the ratiometric fluorescence probe result onto a piece of filter paper to prepare a test paper, which represents an on-site, sensitive, rapid and cost-effective method for the visual determination of Hg2+ by the naked eye.

Highly Sensitive Detection for Mercury Ions Using Graphene Oxide (GO) Sensors.

Project description:The mercury ion (Hg2+) is one of the heavy metal ions, and its presence in trace amounts can cause physiological damage to an organism. Traditional methods of Hg2+ detection have been useful but have also had numerous limitations and challenges, and as a result, it is important to design new and sophisticated methods that can aid in the detection of Hg2+. In this paper, two fluorescent dyes, carboxyfluorescein (FAM) and SYBR Green I, were used to label and intercalate DNA probes immobilized on the surface of graphene oxide (GO) for sensors to detect Hg2+. FAM and SYBR Green I dye share close excitation and emission wavelength spectra, which can promote and amplify the detection of signals, and also increase the limit of detection (LOD). The results showed that the limit of detection in this method was 0.53 nM. Moreover, when the sensors with double amino groups on the surface of GO were carried out to detect Hg2+, a limit of detection was improved to 0.43 nM. The sensors were then applied in the real sample. The results show that this method has a promising potential in Hg2+ detection.

Highly Sensitive Simultaneous Detection of Mercury and Copper Ions by Ultrasmall Fluorescent DNA-Ag Nanoclusters.

Project description:Fluorescent metal nanoclusters (NCs) have given rise to a new class of fluorescent nanomaterials for the detection of heavy metals. Here, we design a simple, rapid and highly sensitive sensing nanosystem for the detection of Hg2+ and Cu2+ based on fluorescence quenching of ultrasmall DNA-Ag NCs. The fluorescence intensity of DNA-Ag NCs was selectively quenched by Hg2+ and Cu2+, and the limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 5 nM and 10 nM, respectively. The technique was renewable employment by EDTA addition and successfully applied to detection of Hg2+ and Cu2+ in domestic water samples. The quantum yield (QY) of DNA-Ag NCs was significantly higher to ~30% compared to traditional water-soluble fluorescent metal NCs. The DNA-Ag NC detection system make it potentially suitable for detecting Hg2+ and Cu2+ and monitoring water quality in a wide range of samples regulated under the Environmental Protection Agency.

An ESIPT-Based Ratiometric Fluorescent Probe for Highly Sensitive and Rapid Detection of Sulfite in Living Cells.

Project description:The novel ratiometric fluorescent probe HPQRB with an ESIPT effect based on Michael addition for highly sensitive and fast detection of sulfite in living HepG2 cells is reported. HPQRB can be easily synthesized by a two-step condensation reaction. HPQRB has a large emission shift (??=116?nm), which is beneficial for fluorescence imaging research, and its sulfite-responsive site is based on a rhodamine-like structure with the emission peak at 566?nm, which decreases with increasing sulfite concentration. and its HPQ structure always has an ESIPT effect throughout the reaction process, keeping the emission peak at 450?nm as a self-reference. In particular, HPQRB has high selectivity for sulfite and responds quickly (within 30?s) with a low detection limit (44?nM). Furthermore, HPQRB has been successfully used for fluorescence imaging of sulfite in HepG2 cells, demonstrating the superior ability to detect sulfite under physiological conditions.

Highly Sensitive Ratiometric Chemosensor and Biomarker for Cyanide Ions in the Aqueous Medium.

Project description:A newly designed cyanide-selective chemosensor based on chromone containing benzothiazole groups [3-(2,3-dihydro-benzothiazol-2-yl)-chromen-4-one (DBTC)] was synthesized and structurally characterized by physico-chemical, spectroscopic, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The compound DBTC can detect cyanide anions based on nucleophilic addition as low as 5.76 nM in dimethyl sulfoxide-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine-N'-ethanesulfonic acid buffer (20 mM, pH 7.4) (v/v = 1:3). The binding mode between receptor DBTC and cyanide nucleophile has also been demonstrated by experimental studies using various spectroscopic tools and theoretical studies, and the experimental work has also been verified by characterizing one supporting compound of similar probable structure of the final product formed between DBTC and cyanide ion (DBTC-CN compound) by single-crystal X-ray analysis for detailed structural analyses. In theoretical study, density functional theory procedures have been used to calculate the molecular structure and the calculation of the Fukui function for evaluation of the electrophilic properties of each individual acceptor atom. Furthermore, the efficacy of the probe (DBTC) to detect the distribution of CN- ions in living cells has been checked by acquiring the fluorescence image using a confocal microscope. Notably, the paper strips with DBTC were prepared, and these could serve as efficient and suitable CN- test kits successfully.

A mitochondria-targeted ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe for biological zinc ions detection.

Project description:A mitochondria-targeted ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe (Mito-MPVQ) for biological zinc ions detection was developed based on quinolone platform. Mito-MPVQ showed large red shifts (68 nm) and selective ratiometric signal upon Zn(2+) binding. The ratio of emission intensity (I488 nm/I420 nm) increases dramatically from 0.45 to 3.79 (ca. 8-fold). NMR titration and theoretical calculation confirmed the binding of Mito-MPVQ and Zn(2+). Mito-MPVQ also exhibited large two-photon absorption cross sections (150 GM) at nearly 720 nm and insensitivity to pH within the biologically relevant pH range. Cell imaging indicated that Mito-MPVQ could efficiently located in mitochondria and monitor mitochondrial Zn(2+) under two-photon excitation with low cytotoxicity.

Controllable In-Situ Growth of Silver Nanoparticles on Filter Paper for Flexible and Highly Sensitive SERS Sensors for Malachite Green Residue Detection.

Project description:In this work, a series of highly flexible and sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates were fabricated by the in-situ growth of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on polydopamine (PDA) templated filter papers (FPs), based on mussel-inspired surface chemistry. The obtained FP@PDA@AgNPs strips exhibited high sensitivity and reproducibility with Rhodamine 6G (R6G) probe molecules, with a calculated detection limit of approximately 10-10 M. More critically, these FP@PDA@AgNPs strips could be used as outstanding flexible SERS sensors to quickly collect and detect malachite green (MG) residues on fish scales, crab shells and shrimp skins by a swabbing extraction method. The detection limits for MG residues were calculated to be approximately as low as 0.04635 pg/cm2, 0.06952 pg/cm2 and 0.09270 pg/cm2, respectively. This facile and efficient strategy could to be utilized as a universal approach to fabricating a variety of flexible, cheap and portable SERS sensors for surface contamination analysis, and has great potential in the environmental scientific analysis and food safety monitoring fields.
