Abstract
Water contamination represents a significant ecological impact with global consequences, contributing to water scarcity worldwide. The presence of several pollutants, including heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and pathogens, in water resources underscores a pressing global concern, prompting the European Union (EU) to establish a Water Watch List to monitor the level of these substances. Nowadays, the standard methods used to detect and quantify these contaminants are mainly liquid or gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC/GC-MS). While these methodologies offer precision and accuracy, they require expensive equipment and experienced technicians, and cannot be used on the field. In this context, chalcogenide quantum dots (QDs)-based sensors have emerged as promising, user-friendly, practical, and portable tools for environmental monitoring. QDs are semiconductor nanocrystals that possess excellent properties, and have demonstrated versatility across various sensor types, such as fluorescent, electrochemical, plasmonic, and colorimetric ones. This review summarizes recent advances (2019-2023) in the use of chalcogenide QDs for environmental sensing, highlighting the development of sensors capable of detect efficiently heavy metals, anions, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, endocrine disrupting compounds, organic dyes, toxic gases, nitroaromatics, and pathogens.

Abstract
Hospital wastewater has emerged as a major category of environmental pollutants over the past two decades, but its prevalence in freshwater is less well documented than other types of contaminants. Due to compound complexity and improper operations, conventional treatment is unable to remove pharmaceuticals from hospital wastewater. Advanced treatment technologies may eliminate pharmaceuticals, but there are still concerns about cost and energy use. There should be a legal and regulatory framework in place to control the flow of hospital wastewater. Here, we review the latest scientific knowledge regarding effective pharmaceutical cleanup strategies and treatment procedures to achieve that goal. Successful treatment techniques are also highlighted, such as pre-treatment or on-site facilities that control hospital wastewater where it is used in hospitals. Due to the prioritization, the regulatory agencies will be able to assess and monitor the concentration of pharmaceutical residues in groundwater, surface water, and drinking water. Based on the data obtained, the conventional WWTPs remove 10-60% of pharmaceutical residues. However, most PhACs are eliminated during the secondary or advanced therapy stages, and an overall elimination rate higher than 90% can be achieved. This review also highlights and compares the suitability of currently used treatment technologies and identifies the merits and demerits of each technology to upgrade the system to tackle future challenges. For this reason, pharmaceutical compound rankings in regulatory agencies should be the subject of prospective studies.

Europium Nanoparticle-Based Lateral Flow Strip Biosensors Combined with Recombinase Polymerase Amplification for Simultaneous Detection of Five Zoonotic Foodborne Pathogens. BIOSENSORS 2023; 13:652. [PMID: 37367017 DOI: 10.3390/bios13060652] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
The five recognized zoonotic foodborne pathogens, namely, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus suis, Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli O157:H7, pose a major threat to global health and social-economic development. These pathogenic bacteria can cause human and animal diseases through foodborne transmission and environmental contamination. Rapid and sensitive detection for pathogens is particularly important for the effective prevention of zoonotic infections. In this study, rapid and visual europium nanoparticle (EuNP)-based lateral flow strip biosensors (LFSBs) combined with recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) were developed for the simultaneous quantitative detection of five foodborne pathogenic bacteria. Multiple T lines were designed in a single test strip for increasing the detection throughput. After optimizing the key parameters, the single-tube amplified reaction was completed within 15 min at 37 °C. The fluorescent strip reader recorded the intensity signals from the lateral flow strip and converted the data into a T/C value for quantification measurement. The sensitivity of the quintuple RPA-EuNP-LFSBs reached a level of 101 CFU/mL. It also exhibited good specificity and there was no cross-reaction with 20 non-target pathogens. In artificial contamination experiments, the recovery rate of the quintuple RPA-EuNP-LFSBs was 90.6-101.6%, and the results were consistent with those of the culture method. In summary, the ultrasensitive bacterial LFSBs described in this study have the potential for widespread application in resource-poor areas. The study also provides insights in respect to multiple detection in the field.

Abstract
In this paper, the fluorescence properties of ZnOQD-GO-g-C3N4 composite materials (ZCGQDs) were studied. Firstly, the addition of a silane coupling agent (APTES) in the synthesis process was explored, and it was found that the addition of 0.04 g·mL-1 APTES had the largest relative fluorescence intensity and the highest quenching efficiency. The selectivity of ZCGQDs for metal ions was also investigated, and it was found that ZCGQDs showed good selectivity for Cu2+. ZCGQDs were optimally mixed with Cu2+ for 15 min. ZCGQDs also had good anti-interference capability toward Cu2+. There was a linear relationship between the concentration of Cu2+ and the fluorescence intensity of ZCGQDs in the range of 1~100 µM. The regression equation was found to be F0/F = 0.9687 + 0.12343C. The detection limit of Cu2+ was about 1.74 μM. The quenching mechanism was also analyzed.

Abstract
The requirement to establish novel methods for visual detection is attracting attention in many application fields of analytical chemistry, such as, healthcare, environment, agriculture, and food. The research around subjects like "point-of-need", "hue recognition", "paper-based sensor", "fluorescent sensor", etc. has been always aimed at the opportunity to manufacture convenient and fast-response devices to be used by non-specialists. It is possible to achieve economic rationality and technical simplicity for optical sensing toward target analytes through introduction of fluorescent semiconductor/carbon quantum dot (QD) and paper-based substrates. In this Review, the mechanisms of anthropic visual recognition and fluorescent visual assays, characteristics of semiconductor/carbon QDs and ratiometric fluorescence test paper, and strategies of semiconductor/carbon QD-based hue recognition are described. We cover latest progress in the development and application of point-of-need sensors for visual detection, which is based on a semiconductor/carbon quantum dot-based hue recognition strategy generated by ratiometric fluorescence technology.

Abstract
Smartphone-derived colorimetric tools have the potential to revolutionize food safety control by enabling citizens to carry out monitoring assays. To realize this, it is of paramount significance to recognize recent study efforts and figure out important technology gaps in terms of food security. Driven by international connectivity and the extensive distribution of smartphones, along with their built-in probes and powerful computing abilities, smartphone-based sensors have shown enormous potential as cost-effective and portable diagnostic scaffolds for point-of-need tests. Meantime, the colorimetric technique is of particular notice because of its benefits of rapidity, simplicity, and high universality. In this study, we tried to outline various colorimetric platforms using smartphone technology, elucidate their principles, and explore their applications in detecting target analytes (pesticide residues, antibiotic residues, metal ions, pathogenic bacteria, toxins, and mycotoxins) considering their sensitivity and multiplexing capability. Challenges and desired future perspectives for cost-effective, accurate, reliable, and multi-functions smartphone-based colorimetric tools have also been debated.

Abstract
Clusters of (ZnO)n (n = 2-4) have been shown to play a central role in the detection of glucose entity based on the existence of photo-induced electrons (PE), which facilitates the interaction between (ZnO)n clusters and glucose entity guests. The electrochemistry experiment has confirmed the detection of glucose by the title clusters. The optimization, energetic parameters, and vibrational frequency calculations have indicated that the Cu-Znn-1On-glucose are more stable than the (ZnO)n-glucose complexes. It has been demonstrated that the Cu doping enhanced the chemical behavior of the clusters and formed a high intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) in the system. The glucose sensing by all the forms of Cu-Znn-1On clusters showed that the Cu-Zn3O4, Cu-Wurtzite, and Cu-Rocksalt clusters are the most suitable for adsorbing the glucose guest. The HOMO/LUMO iso-surfaces of the complexes showed that the electron concentrations are localized in the d orbitals and mainly in the form of the d10 orbitals around Zn atoms. The molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) has clearly indicated that a high charge transfer occurs between the copper and the oxygen atoms, which facilitate the adsorption of glucose. The reactivity parameters also indicated that the Wurtzite-glucose complex has a high electrophilicity index (ω), which means a good acceptor behavior to interact with glucose. Additionally, the bond between the (ZnO)n clusters and the glucose polar element has been studied in detail by using QTAIM theory. Finally, the theoretical and experimental studies prove that the Cu-Znn-1On clusters are very suitable and competent compounds for detecting glucose.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) is an antibiotic that has been widely used in the animal husbandry. Thus, TC residues may be found in animal products. Developing simple and sensitive methods for rapid screening of TC in complex samples is of great importance. Herein, we demonstrate a fluorescence-sensing method using Zn2+ as sensing probes for the detection of TC. Although TC can emit fluorescence under the excitation of ultraviolet light, its fluorescence is weak because of dynamic intramolecular rotations, leading to the dissipation of excitation energy. With the addition of Zn2+ prepared in tris(hydroxymethyl)amino-methane (Tris), TC can coordinate with Zn2+ in the Zn2+-Tris conjugates to form Tris-Zn2+-TC complexes. Therefore, the intramolecular motions of TC are restricted to reduce nonradiative decay, resulting in the enhancement of TC fluorescence. Aggregation-induced emission effects also play a role in the enhancement of TC fluorescence. Our results show that the linear dynamic range for the detection of TC is 15-300 nM. Moreover, the limit of detection was ~7 nM. The feasibility of using the developed method for determination of the concentration of TC in a complex chicken broth sample is also demonstrated in this work.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues have become a public health issues, the fast detection of tetracycline (Tc) in the environment is urgently required. In this work, Ti3C2 quantum dots (Ti3C2 QDs) and Europium ions jointly constructed a ratiometric fluorescence (FL) platform for the detection of Tc, based on synergistic impact of the Foster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) from Ti3C2 QDs to Eu3+ ions and the Antenna Effect (AE) between Tc and Eu3+ ions. And we proposed a ratiometric FL platform for detecting Tc with good linear response range (100-1000 uM) and low detection limit (48.79 nM). Meanwhile, we applied this platform to detect a serious of β-diketone ligands of Eu3+ ions, demonstrating the platform's versatility for this category of chemical. Furthermore, based on the color changes of QDs@Eu3+ from blue to red at 365 nm ultraviolet light, an intelligent detection smart device was built for the visual semi-quantitative detection of Tc in actual samples. We proved the applicability of the device in complicated samples and the potential for rapid, sensitive, intuitive and point-of-care detection in the field of environment, food, pharmaceutical and agriculture.

Abstract
In this work, hemin@ZIF-67 composites were prepared and were used to construct a chemiluminescence (CL) aptasensor for alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) detection. Hemin is a catalytic porphyrin with two carboxylate groups that can covalently bond to metal ions. A hemin/ZIF-67 composite was prepared via covalent bonding between the carboxyl groups of hemin and the cobalt ion of ZIF-67, and these materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectroscopy (IR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Hemin@ZIF-67 was used as the peroxidase material, and the aptamer of alpha-fetoprotein was modified on its surface by electrostatic adsorption. Then a simple CL aptasensor was constructed based on the CL system of luminol-H2O2-NaOH. Under the optimal conditions, the CL intensity value was linearly proportional to the concentration of AFP in the range of 4 × 10-10 to 200 × 10-10 mg/mL. The detection limit was 1.3 × 10-10 mg/mL. Thus the aptasensor enables highly sensitive and selective detection of AFP.

Research on Rapid Detection Technology for β2-Agonists: Multi-Residue Fluorescence Immunochromatography Based on Dimeric Artificial Antigen. Foods 2022; 11:foods11060863. [PMID: 35327285 PMCID: PMC8949518 DOI: 10.3390/foods11060863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2022] [Accepted: 03/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
To detect two types of β2-agonist residues at the same time, we coupled two haptens of clenbuterol (CLE) and ractopamine (RAC) to the same carrier protein through diazotization to prepare dimeric artificial antigen, and a fluorescent lateral flow immunoassay method based on europium nanoparticles (EuNP-FLFIA) was established by combining polyclonal antibodies with europium nanoparticles to form probes. Under optimized conditions, the EuNP-FLFIA could simultaneously detect eight aniline-type and one phenol-type β2-agonists, and the limits of detection (LOD) were 0.11−0.19 ng/mL and 0.12 ng/mL, respectively. The recovery rate of this method was 84.00−114.00%. This method was verified by liquid chromatography−tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and the test results were consistent (R2 > 0.98). Therefore, the method established in this study could be used as a high-throughput screening for the efficient and sensitive detection of β2-agonists in food.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2022; 414:2597-2606. [PMID: 35166867 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-022-03895-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2021] [Revised: 12/28/2021] [Accepted: 01/10/2022] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Although some ratiometric fluorescent sensors have been reported to detect tetracyclines, most of ratiometric fluorescent sensors were established based on europium ion with a narrow linear range. In this work, a ratiometric fluorescent sensor for tetracyclines detection was established based on the dual-emission lanthanum-doped carbon dots (La-CDs) as probes combining with the characteristic pH-response of tetracyclines. The fluorescence intensity of tetracyclines will be enhanced in high pH, and the emission peak of tetracyclines overlapped with the peak of probes. The superposition effect of tetracyclines and probes at 515 nm greatly improved the sensitivity of the ratiometric fluorescent sensor and widened the detection range, and linear ranges for oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC) were respectively 0.00-805.20 μM and 0.00-1039.50 μM. Moreover, the preparation procedure of the La-CDs was simple and time saving and the coupling agent was not required. A comparison of La-CDs with undoped carbon dots (un-CDs) showed that the optical performance and sensing performance of La-CDs were improved. In addition, a portable paper sensor with La-CDs as probes was preliminarily explored in this work, and the sensor has been applied to detect OTC and TC in pork and fish with satisfactory results.
