Doping Ag-enhanced and glutathione-stabilized Au nanoclusters (GSH–Ag/AuNCs) were prepared by the one-step ultraviolet radiation combined with microwave heating method. The effects of the molar ratio of Au–Ag and different types of energy suppliers on the fluorescent performance of GSH–Ag/AuNCs were studied in detail. After that, a new ratio fluorescent probe (RF-probe) based on the mixing of GSH–Ag/AuNCs with carbon dots (CDs) was designed for sensitive and selective determination of copper gluconate (CG) and cupric sulfate (CS). For the CDs–GSH–Ag/AuNCs RF-probe, the fluorescence (FL) of CDs (at 440[Formula: see text]nm) and that of alloy nanoclusters (NCs) (at 605[Formula: see text]nm) were, respectively, unaffected and strongly quenched in the presence of CG/CS at [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]nm coming from the dynamic quenching process. Corresponding linear ranges and limit of detection (LOD) of the RF-probe for the CG/CS assay were estimated to be 0.17–6.20/0.17–5.62[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol/L and 16.80/15.95[Formula: see text]nmol/L, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed RF-probe was successfully used for the assays of CG in CG tablets and CG additive, and CS in infant formula and CS additive, respectively.

In this paper, a novel fluorescent nanoswitch based on carbon dots (CDs) was developed for the sensitive and selective determination of Hg[Formula: see text] and I[Formula: see text]. The CDs were obtained by simple hydrothermal process and had a strong fluorescence emission at 440[Formula: see text]nm. The fluorescence of the CDs can be selectively quenched by Hg[Formula: see text] ion, and then the I[Formula: see text] was added into the system, which can interact with Hg[Formula: see text] and recover fluorescence of the CDs. Under optimal conditions, the quenching fluorescence intensity on addition of Hg[Formula: see text] has obtained a satisfactory linear relationship covering the linear range of 0–50[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M with the linear relationship ([Formula: see text]), and the limit of detection is 0.047[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M. The additions of I[Formula: see text] could lead to the fluorescence intensity of the solution of CDs and Hg[Formula: see text] (50[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M) recover rapidly, which is linearly related ([Formula: see text]) to the concentration of I[Formula: see text] in the range from 0 to 70[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M, the detection limit for I[Formula: see text] was calculated to be 0.084[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M. Moreover, the developed method to detect Hg[Formula: see text] and I[Formula: see text] was evaluated in real examples, and the fluorescence switching can sensitively and selectively detect Hg[Formula: see text] and I[Formula: see text] over some potentially interfering ions, the recoveries were up to 97.8–107.0% and 96.7–106.6%, respectively.

A plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) membrane electrode based on 4-[(5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylimino)methyl]benzene-1,3-diol (L) for highly selective determination of palladium(II) (in PdCl42– form) is developed. The electrode showed a good Nernstian response (29.6 ± 0.4 mV per decade) over a wide concentration range (3.1 × 10–7 to 1.0 × 10–2 mol l–1). The limit of detection was 1.5 × 10–7 mol l–1. The electrode has a response time of about 20 s, and it can be used for at least 2 months without observing any considerable deviation from Nernstian response. The proposed electrode could be used in the pH range of 2.5–5.5. The practical utility of the electrode has been demonstrated by its use for the estimation of palladium content in aqueous samples.
