Metals play vital roles in nutrients and medicines and provide chemical functionalities that
are not accessible to purely organic compounds. At least 10 metals are essential for human …

Metal ions exist globally. Therefore, the study of the design strategies, mechanistic insights,
and applications of fluorescent Schiff base sensors for metal ion detection constitutes an …

Aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active micelles are a type of fluorescent functional
materials that exhibit enhanced emissions in the aggregated surfactant state. They have …

All life forms have an absolute requirement for metals, as metals play critical roles in
fundamental processes, including osmotic regulation, catalysis, metabolism …

In recent years, the research on fluorescent probes has developed rapidly. Coumarin
fluorescent probes have also been one of the hot topics in recent years. For the synthesis …

Gaining greater understanding of the structural and functional properties of living systems is
a key challenge in biology and medicine. On a more practical side, the diagnosis and …

It has long been axiomatic that a protein's structure determines its function. Intrinsically
disordered proteins (IDPs) and disordered protein regions (IDRs) defy this structure …

Heavy metal ions are of great concern, not only among the scientific community, especially
chemists, biologists, and environmentalists, but increasingly among the general population …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) play their essential
roles in regulating biological events. Their aberrant behaviors are mostly associated with …

A new rhodamine functionalized fluorogenic Schiff base CS was synthesized and its
colorimetric and fluorescence responses toward various metal ions were explored. The …
