Abstract
To date, achieving enantioselective electroanalysis for electrochemically silent chiral molecules is still highly desired. Here, an ionic covalent organic framework (COF) consisting of the pyridinium cation was derived from the tripyridinium Zincke salt and 1,4-phenylenediamine in a one-pot reaction. The electrochemical measurements revealed that the ionic backbone contributed to the electron transfer with a low charge transfer resistance. Besides, the π-π+ interaction between the pyridinium cation and ferrocenyl unit can promote the absorption of electroactive chiral ferrocenyl reagents into the hole of COF, so as to afford the electrochemical signals by themselves, replacing the testing enantiomers. As a result, the electroactive complex used as an electrochemical platform was highly effective at enantiomerically recognizing amino alcohols (prolinol, valinol, leucinol, and alaninol) and amino acids (methionine, serine, and penicillamine), giving the ratios of current intensity between l- and d-enantiomers in the range of 1.46-1.72. Moreover, the density functional theory calculations determined the possible intermolecular interactions between the testing enantiomers and chiral selector: namely, hydrogen bonds and electrostatic attractions. Overall, the present work offers an effective strategy to enlarge the electrochemical scope for chiral recognition based on electroactive chiral COFs.

Abstract
Cysteine (Cys) enantiomorphs, important small-molecule biothiols, participate in various antioxidative, flavoring, and poison-removing processes in the food industry. Current cysteine enantiomorph analysis methods require effective strategies for distinguishing them due to their similar structures and reactivity. Herein, we present a metal ion-assisted enantiomorph-selective surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biosensor based on an amphiphilic polymer matrix (APM), which can promote cysteine enantiomorph (L/D-Cys) identification. The highly selective molecular orientation is perhaps caused by the intermolecular hydrogen bonding with chiral isomers (metal centers). The experimental results show that the SERS biosensor has a sensitivity-distincting factor toward L-Cys and D-Cys. The linear range is from 1 mmol L-1 to 1 nmol L-1, along with a low limit of detection of 0.77 pmol L-1. Moreover, the fabricated Cu-APM biosensor exhibits remarkable stability and high repeatability, with an RSD of 3.7%. Real food cysteine enantiomorph detection was performed with L-Cys-containing samples of onion, cauliflower, garlic, and apple, and D-Cys-containing samples of vinegar, black garlic, cheese, and beer. The results show that the Cu-APM biosensor can be utilized as a powerful tool for real-time determination of Cys enantiomorphs in different food samples. Thus, the metal-ion-assisted enantiomorph-selective SERS biosensor has potential as an adaptable tool for enantiomorph detection and food sample analysis.

Abstract
Rationally designing highly catalytic and stable nanozymes for metabolite monitoring is of great importance because of their huge potential in early disease diagnosis. Herein, a novel nanozyme based on hierarchically structured CuS/ZnS with a highly efficient peroxidase (POD)-mimic capability was developed and synthesized for multiple metabolite determination and recognition via the plasmon-stimulated biosensor array strategy. The designed nanozyme can simultaneously harvest plasmon triggered hot electron-hole pairs and generate photothermal properties, leading to a sharply boosted POD-mimic capability under 808 nm laser irradiation. Interestingly, because of the interaction diversity of the metabolite with POD-like nanomaterials, the unique inhibitory effect of metabolites on the POD-mimic activity could be the signal response as the differentiation. Thus, utilizing TMB as a typical chromogenic substrate in the addition of H2O2, the designed colorimetric biosensor array can produce diverse fingerprints for the three vital metabolisms (cysteine (Cys), ascorbic acid (AA), and glutathione (GSH)), which can be precisely identified by principal component analysis (PCA). Notably, a distinct fingerprint of a single metabolite with different levels and metabolite mixtures is also achieved with a detection limit of 1 μM. Most importantly, cell lysis could be effectively discriminated by the biosensor assay, implying its great potential in clinical diagnosis.
