TL;DR: In this critical review, the fluorescent and colorimetric sensors are classified according to their receptors into several categories, including small molecule based sensors, calixarene based Chemosensors, BODIPY based chemosensor, polymer based chemOSensors), DNA functionalized sensing systems, protein based sensing systems and nanoparticle based sensing Systems.
Abstract: Exposure to even very low levels of lead, cadmium, and mercury ions is known to cause neurological, reproductive, cardiovascular, and developmental disorders, which are more serious problems for children particularly. Accordingly, great efforts have been devoted to the development of fluorescent and colorimetric sensors, which can selectively detect lead, cadmium, and mercury ions. In this critical review, the fluorescent and colorimetric sensors are classified according to their receptors into several categories, including small molecule based sensors, calixarene based chemosensors, BODIPY based chemosensors, polymer based chemosensors, DNA functionalized sensing systems, protein based sensing systems and nanoparticle based sensing systems (197 references).

TL;DR: An overview of the design principles underlying small fluorescent probes that have been applied to the ratiometric detection of various analytes, including cations, anions, and biomolecules in solution and in biological samples are provided.
Abstract: Quantitative determination of specific analytes is essential for a variety of applications ranging from life sciences to environmental monitoring. Optical sensing allows non-invasive measurements within biological milieus, parallel monitoring of multiple samples, and less invasive imaging. Among the optical sensing methods currently being explored, ratiometric fluorescence sensing has received particular attention as a technique with the potential to provide precise and quantitative analyses. Among its advantages are high sensitivity and inherent reliability, which reflect the self-calibration provided by monitoring two (or more) emissions. A wide variety of ratiometric sensing probes using small fluorescent molecules have been developed for sensing, imaging, and biomedical applications. In this research highlight, we provide an overview of the design principles underlying small fluorescent probes that have been applied to the ratiometric detection of various analytes, including cations, anions, and biomolecules in solution and in biological samples. This highlight is designed to be illustrative, not comprehensive.

Abstract: Heavy metal ions are of great concern, not only among the scientific community, especially chemists, biologists, and environmentalists, but increasingly among the general population, who are aware of the some of the disadvantages associated with them. In spite of the fact that some heavy metal ions play important roles in living systems, they are very toxic and hence capable of causing serious environmental and health problems.1-6 Some heavy metal ions, such as Fe(III), Zn(II), Cu(II), Co(II), Mn(II), and Mo(VI), are essential for the maintenance of human metabolism. However, high concentrations of these ions can lead to many adverse health effects.1,2,7-20 It is also a fact that others such as Hg(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), and As(III) are among the most toxic ions known that lack any vital or beneficial effects. Accumulation of these over time in the bodies of humans and animals can lead to serious debilitating illnesses.2,21-30 Therefore, the development of increasingly selective and sensitive methods for the determination of heavy metal ions is currently receiving considerable attention.7,23,31-36 Several methods, including atomic absorption spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, electrochemical sensoring, and the use of piezoelectric quartz crystals make it possible to detect low limits.37-40 However, these methods require expensive equipment and involve time-consuming and laborious procedures that can be carried out only by trained professionals. Alternatively, analytical techniques based on fluorescence detection are very popular because fluorescence measurements are usually very sensitive (parts per billion/trillion), easy to perform, and inexpensive.23,37,41-45 Furthermore, the photophysical properties of a fluorophore can be easily tuned using a range of routes: charge transfer, electron transfer, energy transfer, the influence of the heavy metal ions, and the destabilization of nonemissive n-π* excited states.5 Consequently, a large number of papers involving fluorescent chemosensors (see definition in section 2) have been published. In general to date, fluorescent chemosensors for anions and cations have proven popular, but those for many heavy metal ions such as Hg(II), Pb(II), Cu(II), Fe(III), and Ag(I) present challenges because these ions often act as fluorescence quenchers. Cu(II) is a typical ion that causes the chemosensor to decrease fluorescent emissions due to quenching of the fluorescence by mechanisms inherent to the paramagnetic species.46-48 Such decreased emissions are impractical for analytical purposes because of their low signal outputs upon complexation. In addition, temporal separation of spectrally similar complexes by time-resolved fluorimetry is subsequently prevented.49 Compared to the relatively well-developed fluorescent chemosensors, fluorescent chemodosimeters (see definition in section 2) have recently emerged as a research area of * Corresponding author.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

Abstract: Supplementary Table 9, column 'Edoxaban', row 'eGFR category', '95 mL/min' (page 15). The cell should be coloured green instead of yellow. It should also read "60 mg"instead of "60 mg (use with caution in 'supranormal' renal function)."In the above-indicated cell, a footnote has also been added to state: "Edoxaban should be used in patients with high creatinine clearance only after a careful evaluation of the individual thromboembolic and bleeding risk."Supplementary Table 9, column 'Edoxaban', row 'Dose reduction in selected patients' (page 16). The cell should read "Edoxaban 60 mg reduced to 30 mg once daily if any of the following: creatinine clearance 15-50 mL/min, body weight <60 kg, concomitant use of dronedarone, erythromycin, ciclosporine or ketokonazole"instead of "Edoxaban 60 mg reduced to 30 mg once daily, and edoxaban 30 mg reduced to 15mg once daily, if any of the following: creatinine clearance of 30-50 mL/min, body weight <60 kg, concomitant us of verapamil or quinidine or dronedarone."
