Journal ArticleDOI

Supramolecular Luminescent Sensors

TL;DR: Specific focus is placed on the development of new macrocycle hosts since 2010, coupled with considerations of the underlying principles of supramolecular chemistry as well as analytes of interest and common luminophores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensitive and selective detection of cesium via fluorescence quenching

TL;DR: A robust and easy method for detecting cesium metal ion (Cs(+)) in partially aqueous solutions using the fluorescence quenching of 2,4-bis[4-(N,N-dihydroxyethylamino)phenyl]squaraine is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrasensitive Detection of Nitrite through Implementation of N-(1-Naphthyl)ethylenediamine-Grafted Cellulose into a Paper-Based Device.

TL;DR: The reported functionalization procedure resulted in a 12.9-fold higher functionalization density than the density that results from previously reported procedures, and the subsequent device allows for nitrite detection limits in synthetic freshwater and real seawater of 0.26 μM and 0.22 μM, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Paper-Based Device for Ultrasensitive, Colorimetric Phosphate Detection in Seawater

TL;DR: Improved phosphate detection methods were developed, benefited from improved stabilization of the molybdenum blue reagent as well as minimal user contact with toxic reagents, and resulted in the detection of phosphate at detection limits between 1.3 and 2.8 ppm in various aqueous media, including real seawater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescent detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in ternary cyclodextrin complexes

TL;DR: In this article, a new method for the detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was proposed, which relies on energy transfer from the PAH to a near-infrared emitting squaraine fluorophore.
