Summary: In this study, a unique two-photon fluorescent probe (ER-ONOO-) was developed to detect ONOO- in aqueous solution with high sensitivity, high selectivity, and ultrafast response time. The probe successfully evaluated the levels of ONOO- at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in a hypoxia-induced endothelial injury model. Furthermore, it was able to monitor the changes in organ fluorescence through ONOO- variation in different stages of a cecum ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse model. The study confirmed the involvement of endoplasmic reticulum stress and oxidative stress in the CLP model, providing a reliable tool for studying ONOO- fluctuation in sepsis and offering new insights into the pathogenic and therapeutic mechanisms involved.

Summary: In recent years, the use of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on peracetic acid (PAA) has gained attention for its high oxidative potential and low byproduct formation. However, there is still a need to study the activation of PAA and the degradation mechanism to develop more efficient and stable PAA-based AOPs. This study investigates a new PAA-based AOP activated by metal-organic framework-derived cobalt phosphide (CoP) and accompanied by chemiluminescence (CL) behavior. The CoP/PAA system showed efficient degradation of RhB, with a degradation rate 23.7 times higher than that of the conventional Co3O4/PAA system, and the degradation process was confirmed to be driven by O-1(2).

Summary: In this study, nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) were found to significantly enhance the chemiluminescence (CL) intensity of the Ce (IV)-Na2S system. The mechanism was explored and discussed through experiments with free radical scavengers, CL spectra, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The enhancement is mainly attributed to the chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) between (1O2)2*/Ce (III)* and N-CDs, where mono-dispersed N-CDs catalyze the production of more 1O2 on their surface. The new CL system was successfully utilized for the detection of H2S with a linear range of 20-200 nM and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.32 nM. The system also demonstrated good recovery rates in different water samples, making it a promising platform for practical applications.
