Abstract
Copper is an essential trace element in the human body, and its level is directly related to many diseases. While the source of copper in human body is mainly intake from food, then the detection of copper ions (Cu2+) in food becomes crucial. Here, we synthesized a novel probe (E)-3-hydroxy-2-styryl-4H-benzo[h]chromen-4-one (NSHF) and explored the binding ability of NSHF for Cu2+ using nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy (1H NMR), high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), Job's plot method and density functional theory (DFT). NSHF shows the advantages of fast response time, good selectivity and high sensitivity for Cu2+. The fluorescence intensity ratio (F/F0) of NSHF shows a good linear relationship with the concentration of Cu2+ and the detection limit is 0.061 μM. NSHF was successfully applied to the detection of Cu2+ in real samples. In addition, a simple and convenient Cu2+ detection platform was constructed by combining NSHF with a smartphone and a UV lamp, which can realize the rapid detection of Cu2+. This work provides an effective tool for the real-time detection of Cu2+.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes for metal ion recognition can be divided into selective probes, weakly selective probes, and non-selective probes roughly. Weakly selective probes are not often used for quantitative analysis of metal ions due to their overlapping spectra resulting from simultaneous interactions with multiple metal ions. Conversely, the different metal ions contained in herbal medicine extracts from different geographical origins will produce corresponding fluorescence fingerprint profiles after interaction with weakly selective fluorescence probes. The performance can be used in the study of origin tracing of food or Chinese herbal medicine. Weakly selective fluorescent probes of benzimidazole derivatives have been synthesized and attempted to be used in the origin tracing of Radix Astragali in this work. Radix Astragali from different origins will produce different fluorescence fingerprint spectra due to the difference of metal ions and content in combination with the probe. Excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy in conjunction with N-way partial least squares discriminant analysis (N-PLS-DA), and unfolded partial least squares discriminant analysis (U-PLS-DA) were used to identify the origin of 150 Radix Astragali samples from five geographical origins. The prediction results showed that the correct recognition rates of the U-PLS-DA model and N-PLS-DA model are 95.92% and 93.88%, respectively. In comparison, the results of U-PLS-DA are slightly better than those of N-PLS-DA. These findings indicate that EEM fluorescence spectroscopy based on weakly selective fluorescent probes combined with multi-way chemometrics provides a good idea for the origin tracing of traditional Chinese medicine.

Abstract
Mercury ion (Hg2+) is one of harmful heavy metal ions that can accumulate inside the human organism and cause some health problems. In the article, a highly effective fluorescent probe named EC-T-PCBM was prepared by grafting flavonol derivatives onto ethyl cellulose for the specific recognition of Hg2+. EC-T-PCBM exhibited a remarkable fluorescence light-up response toward Hg2+ with excellent sensitivity. EC-T-PCBM possessed several prominent sensing properties for Hg2+, such as low detection limit (43.9 nM), short response time (5 min), and wide detection pH range (6-9). The response mechanism of EC-T-PCBM to Hg2+ has been verified through 1H NMR titration and DFT computation. Additionally, EC-T-PCBM not only can be used for accurately determining trace amount of Hg2+ in actual environmental water samples, but also can serve as a portable and rapid device by loading it on test strips for sensitive and selective visualization of Hg2+. More importantly, the confocal fluorescence imaging of onion cells suggested the favorable cell membrane permeability of EC-T-PCBM and its prominent ability to continuously monitor the enrichment from Hg2+ within fresh plant tissues.

Abstract
Iron ions play a crucial role in the environment and the human body. Therefore, developing an effective detection method is crucial. In this paper, we report CNS2, a chitosan-based fluorescent probe utilizing naphthalimide as a fluorophore. CNS2 is designed to "quench" its own yellow fluorescence through the specific binding of compounds containing enol structures to Fe3+. Studying the fluorescence lifetime of CNS2 in the presence or absence of Fe3+ reveals that the quenching mechanism is static. The presence of multiple recognition sites on the chitosan chain bound to Fe3+ gave CNS2 rapid recognition (1 min) and high sensitivity, with a detection limit as low as 0.211 μM. Moreover, the recognition of Fe3+ by CNS2 had a good specificity and was not affected by interferences. More importantly, in this study, CNS2 was successfully utilised to prepare fluorescent composite membranes and to detect Fe3+ in real water samples and a variety of food samples. The results show that the complex sample environment still does not affect the recognition of Fe3+ by CNS2. All the above experiments obtained more satisfactory results, which provide strong support for the detection of Fe3+ by the probe CNS2 in practical applications.

Abstract
Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer with good biocompatibility and easy modification characteristics. In this paper, a novel cellulose fluorescence probe CNS for detecting ClO- was prepared by modifying microcrystalline cellulose (MCC). The fluorescence detection results indicate that CNS exhibits a highly specific "ratiometric" and "colorimetric" fluorescence response to ClO-. In the presence of ClO-, the fluorescence color changes from green to cyan. In addition, the color of the solution changes from yellow to colorless, which can be observed with the "naked eye". Considering the good selectivity and anti-interference ability of CNS, the probe can be used for the detection of ClO- in real water samples. Importantly, CNS composite films and test papers were prepared and showed practicability in the detection of ClO-, highlighting its broad application potentials.

Abstract
Fe3+ is one of the most widely distributed and abundant elements on earth. Realizing efficient and real-time monitoring of Fe3+ is of great significance for the natural environment and the health of living organisms. In this paper, a flavonol-labelled cellulose-based fluorescent probe (ACHM) was synthesized by using dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) as the backbone and combining with flavonol derivatives (AHM - 1). The mechanism of recognizing Fe3+ was verified by characterizing the structure of ACHM by NMR, HRMS (High Resolution Mass Spectrometry), FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), XRD (X-ray Diffraction), TG (Thermogravimetry) and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy). The H2O solution of the probe ACHM showed good fluorescence properties. It has quenching fluorescence properties for Fe3+, with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.10 μM and a fast response time of only 20 s. In addition, in order to expand the application range of the probe, ACHM was prepared as a fluorescent composite film with an average tensile strength of 32.9 MPa and an average elongation at break of 3.39 %. It shows its superiority in mechanical properties. The probe also demonstrated its practical application value for detecting Fe3+ in smartphone imaging applications.

Abstract
Fe3+ is essential for humans, and its deficiency or excess can be harmful to human health; thus, it is crucial to detect Fe3+. Herein, a novel 1,8-naphthylimide rhodamine-based fluorescent probe (NA-RhBEA) was prepared from rhodamine B, anhydrous ethylenediamine, and 1,8-naphthoic anhydride. This fluorescent probe complexes Fe3+ with N and O on the carboxyl groups of its spironolactam structure and part of the 1,8-naphthalenedicarboxylic anhydride structure, which results in spironolactam ring-opening and fluorescence. NA-RhBEA has high selectivity for Fe3+ in ethanol/buffer solution (4 : 1, v/v), and fluorescence is detected at an excitation wavelength λEX = 500 nm, an absorption peak appears at 585 nm, and a significant color change appears. The effect of the fluorescence intensity of Fe3+ under a series of different concentration conditions was investigated, and it was concluded that the fluorescence intensity increased with increasing Fe3+ concentration in the range of 0-500 μmol, and its detection limit was 0.84 μmol L-1. In addition, we explored the detection ability of NA-RhBEA in solutions with different pH values, mixed metal ions, and different solvents, and the results showed that the fluorescent sensor also has good anti-interference properties and some practical applicability.
