Chromogenic and fluorogenic probes may be described as the reagents that can interact
with analytes (targets) accompanied by the changes of their spectroscopic (chromogenic, or …

After a brief introduction on the main transduction mechanisms for metal ion detection by
fluorescence, this paper reviews ligand molecules containing fluorophores synthesized and …

The anti-fouling performance of an adsorbent is important for its application in wastewater,
because biological fouling severely reduces its adsorption capacity. A zeolitic imidazolate …

In the past decade, fluorescent chemosensors for zinc ion (Zn2+) have attracted great
attention because of the biological significance of zinc combined with the simplicity and high …

Herein, a dual-function Zeolitic Imidazole Frameworks (ZIFs) ZIF-90 grafted with
malononitrile by Knoevenagel reaction and following with an amidoximation reaction to form …

It is still a significant challenge to develop a Zn2+-selective fluorescent sensor with the ability
to exclude the interference of some heavy and transition metal (HTM) ions such as Fe2+ …

A new theranostic nanoplatform, comprising of monodisperse zirconium metal‐organic
frameworks (MOFs) as drug carriers and carboxylatopillar [5] arene‐based supramolecular …

A novel quinoline–coumarin (QC) fluoroionophore conjugated by means of a triazolyl-
pyrrolidinyl linker exhibits differential dual selectivity for Zn2+ and Al3+ in mixed media. QC …

Ratiometric imaging is a technique to reduce artifacts by minimizing the influence of
extraneous factors on the fluorescence of a sensor and is particularly useful for cellular …

A new fluorescent probe 3 was synthesized, and it exhibited high selectivity for FeIII over
other commonly coexistent metal ions in both ethanol and water. Upon the addition of FeIII …
