Abstract
The scarcity of water resources has raised concerns regarding drinking water safety. Excessive addition of hypochlorous acid (OCl-) as a disinfectant in drinking water can result in severe consequences. Moreover, abnormal levels of OCl- within the human body can lead to various diseases. Employing fluorescence analysis, the design and synthesis of specific fluorescent probes for simultaneous detection of OCl- in water environments and living organisms holds strategic significance in ensuring the safety of drinking water and mitigating potential risks caused by its abnormal concentrations. This article utilizes naphthalimide as a precursor to develop a novel probe enabling highly sensitive detection of OCl- in water environments and at the organelle level within living organisms. This endeavor serves to provide assurance for drinking water safety and offers health alerts.

Abstract
N2H4 is a common raw material used in the production of pesticides and has good water solubility, so it may contaminate water sources and eventually enter living organisms, causing serious health problems. Viscosity is an important indicator of the cellular microenvironment and an early warning signal for many diseases. The high reactivity of hydrazine depletes glutathione (GSH) in hepatocytes, causing oxidative stress ultimately leading to significant changes in intracellular viscosity and even death. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop an effective method to detect N2H4 and viscosity in environmental and biological systems. On this basis, we developed two fluorescent probes, BDD and BHD, based on xanthene and 2-benzothiazole acetonitrile. The experimental results show that BHD and BDD have good imaging capabilities for N2H4 in cells, zebrafish and Arabidopsis. BHD and BDD also showed sensitive detection and fluorescence enhancement in the near-infrared region when the intracellular viscosity was changed. Notably, the probe BDD has also successfully imaged N2H4 in a variety of real water samples.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a burgeoning iron-dependent cell death form, and has close relation with hypochlorous acid (HClO). Exploring the fluctuation of the HClO level in living cells during ferroptosis could contribute to the profound study of the biological functions of HClO during ferroptosis. Here, we present a turn-on probe (RH-C) for the imaging of intracellular HClO during ferroptosis. The probe RH-C utilized the N,N-dimethylthiocarbamate group as a selective recognition site for HClO, and displayed desirable sensitivity and selectivity to HClO. The probe RH-C could detect the exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells. Furthermore, RH-C was competent in monitoring the changes of endogenous HClO level during the process of ferroptosis. Biological imaging results suggested that erastin-induced ferroptosis can result in the excessive production of the endogenous HClO, and ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) and vitamin E (VE) could block the massive accumulation of HClO in living cells.

Abstract
Cytoarchitectural staining is of great importance in disease diagnosis and cell biology research. This study developed user-friendly multifunctional red-emissive carbon dots (R-CDs) for rapid cell nucleus staining via targeting nuclear proteins. R-CDs, simply prepared by electrochemical treatment of 1,2,4-benzenetriamine, exhibit strong emission at 635 nm when excited at 507 nm. The R-CDs can rapidly stain the nucleus of human SH-SY5Y, HepG2, and HUH-7 cells with a high signal-to-noise ratio owing to fluorescence enhancement after entering the nucleus. Compared to conventional cytosolic dyes such as Hoechst and DAPI, R-CDs are cheaper, more highly dispersed in water, and more stable (requiring no stringent storage conditions). The R-CDs show stable optical properties with insignificant photobleaching over 7 days and salt resistance up to 2 M of NaCl. More importantly, R-CDs, possessing a positive charge, allow rapid staining of live cells (3 min) and dead cells (10 s) in saline. According to kinetic variation, R-CDs can distinguish live cells from dead cells. Staining exhibits high efficiency in onion epidermal cells, Aspergillus niger, Caenorhabditis elegans, and human spermatozoa. The mechanism for efficient staining is based on their fast accumulation in the nucleus due to their small size and positive charge and strong interaction with nuclear proteins at amino acid residues of histidine and arginine, resulting in fluorescence enhancement by dozens of times. The developed R-CDs do not bind to DNA and would not cause genetic damage and will find various safe applications in biological and medical fields.

Abstract
Due to the serious harm of depression to human health and quality of life, an accurate diagnosis of depression is warranted. For the complex etiology of depression, a single biomarker diagnostic method often leads to misdiagnosis. As noradrenaline and HClO are closely related to depression, a "dual-locked" fluorescence probe R-NE-HClO for diagnosing of depression through the simultaneous detection of noradrenaline and HClO was designed and synthesized. Fluorescence of R-NE-HClO can only be restored in the presence of both noradrenaline and HClO. The probe demonstrates excellent selectivity for noradrenaline and HClO and low cytotoxicity in cell imaging experiments. It is to be observed that we successfully applied the probe to accurately detect depressed cells which provides a possible tool for diagnosing depression.

Abstract
Hydroxyl radical (•OH), one of the most reactive and deleterious substances in organisms, belongs to a class of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and it has been verified to play an essential role in numerous pathophysiological scenarios. However, due to its extremely high reactivity and short lifetime, the development of a reliable and robust method for tracking endogenous •OH remains an ongoing challenge. In this work, we presented the first ratiometric fluorescent nanoprobe NanoDCQ-3 for •OH sensing based on oxidative C-H abstraction of dihydroquinoline to quinoline. The study mainly focused on how to modulate the electronic effects to achieve an ideal ratiometric detection of •OH, as well as solving the inherent problem of hydrophilicity of the probe, so that it was more conducive to monitoring •OH in living organisms. The screened-out probe NanoDCQ-3 exhibited an exceptional ratiometric sensing capability, better biocompatibility, good cellular uptake, and appropriate in vivo retention, which has been reliably used for detecting exogenous •OH concentration fluctuation in living cells and zebrafish models. More importantly, NanoDCQ-3 facilitated visualization of •OH and evaluation of drug treatment efficacy in diabetic mice. These findings afforded a promising strategy for designing ratiometric fluorescent probes for •OH. NanoDCQ-3 emerged as a valuable tool for the detection of •OH in vivo and held potential for drug screening for inflammation-related diseases.

Abstract
Thiophenol (PhSH), a highly reactive aromatic thiol, plays an essential role as a common industrial raw material in food, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In this work, we designed and constructed two fluorescent probes CM-PhSH and CM-Ratio-PhSH by a rational strategy. Specifically, coumarin fluorophores with excellent optical properties were modified, and olefinic unsaturated bonds served as reaction sites for the detection of PhSH. Based on this, the introduction of the nitro group at specific positions of the CM-PhSH changed the fluorescence emission of the CM-Ratio-PhSH, eventually obtaining a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe CM-Ratio-PhSH for PhSH detection. Surprisingly, these two probes exhibited advantages such as high specificity and low limit of detection (LOD) for CM-PhSH 32.3 nM and CM-Ratio-PhSH 40.2 nM, respectively. Furthermore, subsequent experiments demonstrated CM-PhSH and CM-Ratio-PhSH could be successfully used for highly selective and rapid detection of PhSH in aqueous solutions, live cells, and complex food samples.

Abstract
An environmentally friendly smart ink was developed by incorporating fluorescein into functionalized poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanoparticles synthesized using an emulsifier-free emulsion copolymerization approach. The functional comonomers of 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA), acrylamide, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and glycidyl methacrylate in 10 wt % with respect to methyl methacrylate were used to obtain the functionalized colloidal PMMA nanoparticles. Functional groups of the latex nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Field emission scanning electron microscopy results showed that all of the latex nanoparticles have nearly spherical morphologies with variations in size and surface smoothness due to the presence of different comonomers. Ultraviolet-visible and fluorescence spectra indicated that the fluorescein-doped latex nanoparticles containing the DMAEMA comonomer had the highest absorbance and fluorescence intensity. In the alkaline media, fluorescein turns to a dianion, showing a red shift and increased absorbance in the UV-vis spectroscopy. In addition, the electron inductive characteristics of the tertiary amine groups result in enhancing the conjugation of fluorescein molecules and increasing the fluorescence intensities. Therefore, the colloidal nanoparticles with amine functional groups were used in the formulation of a smart ink with applications in securing documents and fingerprints, encrypting banknotes and money, detecting latent fingerprints, crafting anticounterfeiting paper, and eventually providing optical detection and indication of surface scratches.

Abstract
Latent fingerprint (LFP) powders are crucial in the detection of LFPs in forensic science. However, it is often plagued by poor image resolution and low contrast. Herein, enhanced LFP fluorescence (FL) visualizations are achieved by doping Eu(III) coordination compound Eu(TTA)3phen directly into SiO2 microspheres instead of Eu(III) ions. Using the synthesized Eu(TTA)3phen-SiO2 microspheres, the fine characteristic structure of LFP can be seen and recognized under 365 nm irradiation, up to Level 3. However, the Eu3+-SiO2 microspheres were difficult to recognize the Level 2,3 fingerprint structure. The difference between the ridge and furrow gray values of Eu(TTA)3phen-SiO2 microspheres is 2.1 times that of Eu3+-SiO2 microspheres. The coordination effect increased the asymmetry around Eu(III) ions, resulting in the ultrasensitive 5D0→7F2 transition, thus increasing the FL intensity, and the uniform doping of the Eu(III) coordination compound into SiO2 also reduced the surface FL quenching due to shielding from oxygen. Under this dual effect, the LFP performance of Eu(TTA)3phen-SiO2 microspheres has been significantly improved. We believe that this novel and easy LFP visualization method is a promising routine in specific target detection including criminal investigation, customhouse check-in, and drug control.

Abstract
Mercury ions are notoriously difficult to biodegradable, and its abnormal bioaccumulation in the human body through the food chain can cause various diseases. Therefore, the quantitative and real-time detection of Hg2+ is very extremely important. Herein, we have brilliant designed and synthesized (E)-O-(4-(2-(3-(dicyanomethylene)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)vinyl)phenyl) O-phenyl carbonothioate (ICM-Hg) as a selective fluorescent probe for Hg2+ detection in real samples and intracellular staining. ICM-Hg displayed high specificity toward Hg2+ by activating the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process, resulting in distinguished color change from colorless to bright yellow along with noticeable switch on yellow fluorescence emission. The fluorescent intensity of ICM-Hg at 585 nm shows a well linear relationship in the range of Hg2+ concentration (0-45 μM), and the detection of limit for Hg2+ is calculated to be 231 nM. Promisingly, ICM-Hg can efficiently detect Hg2+ in real samples including tap water, tea, shrimp, and crab with quantitative recovery as well as the intracellular fluorescence imaging.

Abstract
Creation of AIEgens with high brightness is compactly related to acquiring optimum AIE capabilities and still faces challenges. This study proposes an ingenious structurally regulative approach for preparing ultrabright AIEgens, taking iridium complexes as the model. The incremental rotational activity of substituents obtained by fine adjustment of the stereoscopic configuration efficaciously activates the AIE of iridium complexes and synchronously imparts high-brightness luminescence. Subsequently, benefitting from the ultrabright AIE, high-resolution visualization of latent fingerprints (LFPs) is achieved on diverse substrates by transient immersion in a solution of the AIE-active iridium complex (Ir3) for 60 s. The LFPs stained by Ir3 are integral and distinct enough to possess level 1-3 detail features, which allow precisely realizing personal identification. The LFP photograph emerges inconspicuous attenuation of contrast when aged under ambient light for 10 days and then being continuously irradiated with high-power ultraviolet light for 1 h, reflecting extraordinary aging resistance. Notably, the ultrabright AIE of Ir3 with room-temperature phosphorescence feature successfully achieves enhanced visualization of local fingerprint details with ultrahigh contrast. This LFP visualization protocol based on the ultrabright AIEgens is practical and provides a reliable solution for forensic investigations in actual scenarios.

Abstract
Bimodal imaging probes that combine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photoluminescence imaging are quite appealing since they can supply both anatomical and molecular information to effectively ameliorate the accuracy of detection. In this study, an activatable nanoprobe, [Eu(BTD)3(DPBT)]@MnO2, for bimodal time-gated luminescence imaging (TGLI) and MRI has been constructed by anchoring visible-light-excitable Eu3+ complexes on lamellar MnO2 nanosheets. Due to the luminescence quenching effect and non-magnetic resonance (MR) activity of MnO2 nanosheets, the developed nanoprobe presents quite weak TGL and MR signals. After exposure to H2O2 or GSH, accompanied by the transformation from MnO2 to Mn2+, the nanoprobe exhibits rapid, sensitive, and selective "turn-on" responses towards GSH and H2O2 in TGL and MR detection modes. Furthermore, the nanoprobe displays high stability, low cytotoxicity, good biocompatibility and water dispersion. Given the high contents of GSH and H2O2 in cancer cells, the nanoprobe was used for the identification of cancer cells by TGLI of intracellular GSH and H2O2, as well as for the tracing of tumor cells in tumor-bearing mice by tumor-targeting in vivo MRI and TGLI of tumor tissues. The research outcomes proved the potential of [Eu(BTD)3(DPBT)]@MnO2 as a useful nanoprobe for the tracing and accurate detection of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo via bimodal TGLI and MRI.

Abstract
Organic luminescent materials that can simultaneously achieve multimode mechanochromism and its water-vapor-induced recovery are desirable for practical applications but rarely reported. Herein, an amphiphilic compound, 4-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridin-1-ium bromide (CPAB), is designed by integrating a lipophilic aromatic unit and hydrophilic end in the molecular architecture. Self-recovered mechanochromism from brown to cyan is observed upon mechanical grinding in air. Comprehensive research by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and single-crystal analysis reveals that the photoluminescence switch originates from the variation in intermolecular hydrogen bonds and molecular packing mode. The amphiphilic nature of CPAB allows water molecules to enter the crystalline lattice, forming two polymorphs of the crystalline phase, namely CPAB-D and CPAB-W. The hydrosoluble CPAB exhibits excellent capability in probing the level 3 details of fingerprints because its lipophilic part can target the fatty acid residues of fingerprints, leading to strong aggregation-induced fluorescence. The research may inspire the design of latent fingerprint developers and application in forensics/anti-counterfeiting.

Abstract
Liquid safety is considered a serious public health problem; a convenient and effective viscosity determination method has been regarded as one of the powerful means to detect liquid safety. Herein, one kind of triphenylamine-modified cinnamaldehyde-based fluorescent sensor (3-(4'-(diphenylamino)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)acrylaldehyde (DPABA)) has been developed for sensing viscosity fluctuations in a liquid system, where a cinnamaldehyde derivative was extracted from one kind of natural plant cinnamon and acted as an acceptor, which has been combined with a triphenylamine derivate via the Suzuki coupling reaction within one facile step. Twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) was observed, and the rotation could be restricted in the high-viscosity microenvironment; thus, the fluorescent signal was released at 548 nm. Featured with a larger Stokes shift (223.8 nm in water, 145.0 nm in glycerol), high adaptability, sensitivity, selectivity, and good photostability, the capability of high signal-to-noise ratio sensing was achieved. Importantly, this sensor DPABA has achieved noninvasively identifying thickening efficiency investigation, and viscosity fluctuations during the liquid deterioration program have been screened as well. We believed that this unique strategy can accelerate intelligent molecular platforms toward liquid quality and safety inspection.

Abstract
Lysosomal viscosity is a significant parameter of lysosomes and closely related to various diseases. Herein, two fluorescent probes, Lyso-vis-A and Lyso-vis-B, were developed, which demonstrate diverse advantages, including great water solubility, lysosome targeting ability and viscosity sensitivity. In particular, Lyso-vis-A exclusively showed fluorescence response toward viscosity but was not influenced by pH changes, rendering it a selective lysosomal viscosity probe. Furthermore, Lyso-vis-A was successfully applied to monitor lysosomal viscosity variations in living cells and differentiate cancer cells and normal cells.

Abstract
Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) is an important cofactor in the progress of antioxidant synthesis and biosynthesis, and an abnormal NADPH level has been observed in many viral infection processes. However, efficient tools to monitor NADPH in living cells after viral infection have not been reported. In this work, we present a fluorescent probe, NAFP4, that could detect NADPH ex vivo with a low detection limit of 3.66 nM and image mitochondrial NADPH level changes in living cells. The probe exhibits excellent cell permeability, rapid reactivity, and high selectivity with minimal cytotoxicity. Using NAFP4, we reveal that the NADPH is overproduced in the host cells infected by influenza virus, which was caused by an elevated level of G6PDH during the virus infection. Moreover, there was positive association between the G6PDH level and virus replication. With the proposed probe NAFP4, our study highlights that the virus infection would influence the host metabolism in NADPH production and also suggests that G6PDH is expected to be a promising target for antiviral therapy.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active micelles are a type of fluorescent functional materials that exhibit enhanced emissions in the aggregated surfactant state. They have received significant interest due to their excellent fluorescence efficiency in the aggregated state, remarkable processability, and solubility. AIE-active micelles can be designed through the self-assembly of amphipathic AIE luminogens (AIEgens) and the encapsulation of non-emissive amphipathic molecules in AIEgens. Currently, a wide range of AIE-active micelles have been constructed, with a significant increase in research interest in this area. A series of advanced techniques has been used to characterize AIE-active micelles, such as cryogenic-electron microscopy (Cryo-EM) and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). This review provides an overview of the synthesis, characterization, and applications of AIE-active micelles, especially their applications in cell and in vivo imaging, biological and organic compound sensors, anticancer drugs, gene delivery, chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and photocatalytic reactions, with a focus on the most recent developments. Based on the synergistic effect of micelles and AIE, it is anticipated that this review will guide the development of innovative and fascinating AIE-active micelle materials with exciting architectures and functions in the future.

Abstract
Colorimetric and fluorescent probes have received a lot of attention for detecting lethal analytes in realistic systems and in living things. Herein, a dual-approachable Benzo-hemicyaninebased red-emitting fluorescent probe PBiSMe, for distinct and instantaneous detection of CN- and HS- was synthesized. The PBiSMe emitted red fluorescence (570 nm) can switch to turn-off (570 nm) and blue fluorescence (465 nm) in response to CN- and HS-, respectively. Other nucleophilic reagents, such as reactive sulfur species (RSS) and anions, have no contact or interference with the probe; instead, a unique approach is undertaken to exclusively interact with CN- and HS- over a wide pH range. The measured detection limits for CN- (0.43 μM) and HS- (0.22 μM) ions are lower than the World Health Organization's (WHO) recommended levels in drinking water. We confirmed 1:1 stoichiometry ratio using Job's plot and observed good quantum yield for both analytes. The probe-coated paper strips were used to detect the H2S gas produced by food spoilage (such as eggs, raw meat, and fish) via an eye-catching visual response. Moreover, fluorescence bioimaging studies of living cells was done to confirm the probe's potential by monitoring the presence of CN- and HS- in a living system.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has comprehensive contributions to maintaining the normal operation and stability of organisms, and it also occurs in the wastewater environment and is related to the deterioration of foodstuffs. Therefore, developing high-sensitive detection techniques for tracing H2S is promising and meaningful. Inspired by this, a novel nopinone-based fluorescent probe NPS for the recognition of H2S was designed and synthesized with excellent sensitivity, low limit of detection (79 nM), good selectivity, and wide pH range (5-9). NPS could emit strong yellow fluorescence and its emission intensity showed a remarkable augmentation at 520 nm upon the supplement of H2S. Furthermore, the recognition mechanism of NPS for H2S was verified by the HRMS analysis, 1H NMR spectra titration, and DFT computation. What is more, NPS also had broad applications in the monitoring of real water samples, red wine, beer, and eggs samples, which showed its development prospect and value in environmental pollution, foodstuffs quality analysis fields. NPS also was applied to monitor trace exogenous H2S and bioimaging in living cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
The contamination of tetracycline antibiotics and dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4−) in food and the environment is one of the major concerns for human health. Herein, a water-stable carboxyl-functionalized europium metal–organic framework (Eu-MOF) was prepared and demonstrated, for the first time, as a dual-responsive fluorescent sensor of tetracycline antibiotics (oxytetracycline (OTC), tetracycline (TC), and doxycycline (DOX)) and H2PO4−via fluorescent turn-on and turn-off, respectively. Eu-MOF presents a sensitive and selective detection of OTC with a rapid response time (1 min) and good anti-interference ability. The limits of detection (LODs) of 78 nm, 225 nm, and 201 nM were achieved for OTC, TC, and DOX, respectively. Coordination and hydrogen bonding led to energy and electron transfer from the TC to the MOF, contributing to the fluorescent enhancement mechanism. Moreover, Eu-MOF can effectively detect H2PO4−via fluorescence turn-off with a LOD of 0.70 μM. The interactions between H2PO4− and MOF interrupt the energy transfer from ligand to MOF, leading to fluorescence quenching. In addition, Eu-MOF was successfully applied to determine OTC and H2PO4− in real samples, obtaining satisfactory recoveries and RSDs. More fascinating, Eu-MOF could be utilized to develop latent fingerprints on various surfaces, providing well-defined fluorescent fingerprint details in which the sweat pores can be seen with the naked eye. Water-stable Eu-MOF as a fluorescent probe for detecting tetracycline antibiotics and dihydrogen phosphate in real samples and visualization of latent fingerprints.![]()

Abstract
Despite their status of being widely used as food additives, bisulfite (HSO3-)/sulfite (SO32-) can pose serious health risks when they are excessively added. Therefore, it is vital to develop a new method for detecting HSO3-/SO32- in foodstuff. In this paper, a benzopyran-benzothiazole derivative (probe DCA-Btl) with near-infrared emission was designed and synthesized by constructing a "push-pull" electronic system. DCA-Btl can selectively recognize HSO3-/SO32- via a colorimetric and fluorescence dual channel in DMF/PBS (1:1, v/v, pH = 8.4), and the emission wavelength of DCA-Btl can reach 710 nm. The fluorescence quenching of DCA-Btl after recognition of HSO3- is attributed to the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process of the adduct DCA-Btl-HSO3- as evaluated by the DFT/TD-DFT method. In addition, DCA-Btl has many advantages, including a large Stokes shift (95 nm), good anti-interference ability, and little cytotoxicity. What's more, DCA-Btl has been successfully applied for the detection of HSO3-/SO32- in actual water samples and food samples such as sugar, red wine, and biscuits with satisfying results, as well as for fluorescent imaging of HSO3- in living MCF-7 cells.
