Summary: The study formulated a recognition solution for cyanide detection and developed chromogenic test-strips, with a detection limit of 0.27 ppm for the method and 1 ppm for the test-strips. The spectrophotometric method detected cyanide contamination of 0.77 ppm, 2.56 ppm and 2.71 ppm in samples from canal, tannery and textile industry effluents, respectively. The developed method and test-strips are selective for cyanide and unaffected by interferents like Cl-, Br-, I-, HCO-, PO3-, SO2- and AcO-.

Summary: Two novel fluorescent peptide-based chemosensors, A and B, show excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards Al3+ ions with detection limits of 155 nM and 195 nM respectively. They form a 1:1 coordination complex with Al3+ and produce turn-on responses through an intramolecular charge transfer mechanism.

Summary: Designing fluorescent sensors for selective detection of CN- in aqueous and even solid states is a challenge due to the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect. The novel fluorescent probe C-1 reported in this paper exhibited orange-red fluorescence with emission peak centered at 597nm in aqueous solution and solid state, making it a selective CN-sensor with sensitivity and detection limit of 5.97 x 10(-4) M-1 and 1.2 mu M respectively. The interactions between C-1 and CN- were confirmed by UV-visible and fluorescent measurements, and the H-1 NMR titration method demonstrated the detection mechanism.

Summary: An abnormal intake of Cu2+ can lead to cellular homeostasis disruption, oxidative damage, cardiovascular disorders, severe neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. A rapid SERS assay for picomolar copper ions is developed based on the click reaction of Cu+-catalyzed alkyne azide cycloaddition. This method shows high sensitivity and selectivity and can be used for water quality assessment in onshore and offshore water treatment systems.

Summary: A fluorescent probe KS4 with multiple reaction sites has been synthesized and characterized, showing high selectivity towards CN- with an amazing turn-on fluorescence. The probe exhibits a detection limit of 1.3 mu M for CN-, lower than the standard set by WHO. The interaction between KS4 and CN- was determined to be 1:1 and the binding constant was found to be 1.5x104 M-1. The probe has shown excellent applicability for qualitative detection of CN- in almond and cassava powder as well as quantification in real water samples. It is also safe for living HeLa cells and successfully used for the detection of endogenous cyanide ions in HeLa cells.
