RESUMO
Biomaterials like chitosan, hydroxyapatite have been used in biomedical and pharmaceutical field, due to its valuable biochemical and physiological properties. In current work firstly our group has isolated a polysaccharide chitosan along with hydroxyapatite biomaterial from the same source by varying the process condition via greener approach. We have adapted greener approach for the isolation of chitosan within a short period of time and this is the very first report for the isolation of both chitosan and hydroxyapatite simultaneously from the same waste edible garden snail shells. Both these materials were thoroughly characterized by using UV, FT-IR, SEM techniques. Among synthetic colourants, congo red dye is recognized as carcinogens, which are usually used in the textile manufacturing. Interestingly, one of our biomaterial hydroxyapatite has shown good selectivity towards Congo red dye. The sensitivity range was obtained from 10 to 100 µM within the LOD of 101.52 nM. The developed sensor has been tested for various industrial effluents and shown good agreement with our results. Meanwhile these chitosan and hydroxyapatite have also been used as capping agent for the preparation of stable gold nanoparticles.

For the first time, a novel fluorescent moiety, 2-amino-4-(7-formyl-1,8-dihydropyren-2-yl)-7-hydroxy-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile (ACC), was synthesized by an ultrasonication method. The synthesis of this moiety was confirmed via structural elucidation using FTIR and NMR spectroscopy techniques. Further, photophysical properties of the fluorescent moiety were tested using UV-visible and emission spectroscopy techniques. In this case, the moiety was tagged with an antibody of Enterobacter cloacae via 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) coupling and applied as a sensing element for the detection of Enterobacter cloacae (E. cloacae) by UV-visible and emission spectroscopy techniques. The developed fluorescent sensor detected E. cloacae via a FRET mechanism. Under optimized conditions, ACC-anti-E. cloacae detected E. cloacae in the linear range from 101 to 1010 CFU mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10.55 CFU mL-1. The developed sensor was applied for the detection of E. cloacae in food samples such as orange, pomegranate, milk, rice, tomato, potato and onion.

In this paper, simple imine-based organic fluorophore 4-amino-3-(anthracene-9 yl methyleneamino) phenyl (phenyl) methanone (APM) has been synthesized via a greener approach and the same was used to construct a fluorescent immunoassay for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes (LM). A monoclonal antibody of LM was tagged with APM via the conjugation of the amine group in APM and the acid group of anti-LM through EDC/NHS coupling. The designed immunoassay was optimized for the specific detection of LM in the presence of other interfering pathogens based on the aggregation-induced emission mechanism and the formation of aggregates and their morphology was confirmed with the help of scanning electron microscopy. Density functional theory studies were done to further support the sensing mechanism-based changes in the energy level distribution. All photophysical parameters were measured by using fluorescence spectroscopy techniques. Specific and competitive recognition of LM was done in the presence of other relevant pathogens. The immunoassay shows a linear appreciable range from 1.6 × 106-2.7024 × 108 cfu/mL using the standard plate count method. The LOD has been calculated from the linear equation and the value is found as 3.2 cfu/mL, and this is the lowest LOD value reported for the detection of LM so far. The practical applications of the immunoassay were demonstrated in various food samples, and their accuracy obtained was highly comparable with the standard existing ELISA method.

Current study is focusing mainly on the development of simple, novel, and cost-effective optical sensor to detect and quantify Bisphenol A (BPA) contamination. We designed a very selective and sensitive colorimetric sensor using synthesized 3', 6'- bis(diethylamino) -2- ((3,4,5 trimethyl benzylidene) amino)spiro [isoindoline-1,9'-xanthen] -3-one (BTSIXO) conjugated with Fe3+-ions via very simple eco- friendly synthetic protocol. The sensor has an excellent wide detection range for BPA from 0.1 to 150 ppm with LODs of 0.02 ppm. Finally, the applicability of the sensor was demonstrated in fish samples especially in the organs of Oreochromis mossambicus fingerlings and contaminated industrial water samples. The sensor was also applied for the quantification of BPA present drinking water stored in the plastic bottles. The developed sensor has shown a good agreement and accuracy when compared with ESI-Mass techniques.

We report an optical biosensor using imine, 5-((anthrcene-9-ylmethylene) amino)-2,3dihydrophthalazine) 1-4-dione (ADD) for direct detection of ascorbic acid (AA) via FRET quenched. The ADD was successfully prepared by using simple ultra - sonication method, which was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The fluorescence intensity of ADD probe was drastically quenched in presence of AA, and shown excellent selectivity towards the detection of AA in presence of possible biological active interferences. A wide linear range from 0.25 to 190 µM was achieved towards the detection of AA with a LOD of 10 nM. The occurrence of FRET mechanism is due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding between ADD and AA, which was confirmed by Density Functional Theory calculations. Moreover, the biosensor was successfully applied for the detection of AA in real samples such as fruits and vegetables to demonstrate the practicability. In addition, the developed biosensor could be a simple and economically cheap platform for the detection of AA in food samples.

A one-pot greener methodology has been adopted for the synthesis of a simple 4H-chromene core-based fluorescent tag of (S)-2-amino-4-(anthracen-9-yl)-7-hydroxy-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile (AHC), and its structure has been analyzed using NMR spectroscopy. The physicochemical properties of AHC were well-studied by UV-vis and fluorescent spectroscopy techniques. As a result of excellent emitting property (Ï ≈ 0.75), it has been coupled with anti-AH through amide linkage, and the AHC-tagged anti-AH has been used as an immunoassay for the selective detection of Aeromonas hydrophila in the presence of interfering pathogens. Under optimized conditions, immunosensors could successfully quantify A. hydrophila from 4 to 736 CFU/mL, and the LOD was 2 CFU/mL. Saliently, the immunoassay has been successfully demonstrated for the analysis of A. hydrophila in the organs of Oreochromis mossambicusfingerlings, and results have shown a very good agreement with our optimized neat AH fluorimetric titration results.
RESUMO
A very simple chemodosimeter has been developed for creatinine biomolecules based on Michael addition reaction by using ( E)-3-(Pyren-2-yl)-1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2- en-1-one Chalcone. The photophysical properties of the chalcone were thoroughly analyzed using UV-vis and emission techniques. The chalcone has exhibited two absorption maxima at 297 and 407 nm which are due n-π* and π-π* transactions, respectively. This property was further confirmed by repeating UV-vis absorbance studies of the chalcones in different solvents having different polarity. The PTP chalcone has originally exhibited ICT mechanism and it is arrested while creatinine is added. However, a ratiometric response is observed due to the creatinine induced ICT mechanism and it is also clearly supported with DFT studies. In our original work, we did DFT studies for only one isomer of the creatinine. Currently, we have extended our DFT studies for another isomer also. The relative quantum yield of the PTP chalcone was calculated in sensing and standard conditions as 0.85 and 0.45, respectively.

Microbes accumulate heavy metals after adsorption or absorption. This study exhibited that Trametes versicolor can tolerate up to 5 mg/g concentration of cadmium. Change in fungus morphology due to cadmium along with its absorption were analyzed using SEM, XRD, and EDAX. Cadmium absorption usually increased with time, and it was determined quantitatively by a fluorimetry technique using a synthesized imine fluorophore as a specific probe and compared with results obtained from atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The intensity of the cadmium-specific XRD peak gradually increased up to the seventh day, and the absorption by the organisms reduced the concentration of cadmium even from the effluent of the plating industry. After the seventh day, Trametes versicolor absorbed almost 0.300 mg/g concentration of cadmium as visualized under high content screening from the fluorescence appearance of hyphae. Hence it can be concluded that Trametes versicolor may play a key role in reducing cadmium from a contaminated environment.
RESUMO
First, a simple and highly emissive fluorescent chalcone ( E)-3-(pyren-2-yl)-1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (PTP) was synthesized via simple shaking along with an excellent quantum yield of 0.85, and proved as a stable, highly sensitive, and selective biosensor for creatinine. Owing to its unique photophysical interaction with creatinine through Michael adduct formation, PTP was utilized as a Chemodosimeter for the selective recognition of creatinine in blood serum. Under optimized conditions, a broad range of creatinine detection was achieved from 0.00000113 mg/dL to 15.8 mg/dL along with an excellent limit of detection of 0.00000065 mg/dL (0.058 nM). This biosensor is highly reproducible even for different concentration levels of creatinine. It is the very first creatinine biosensor possessing a wider linear range for clinical applications for creatinine. To ensure its clinical application, blood serum samples of people of different age groups were collected from Alpha Hospital and analyzed for creatinine by using our chemodosimeter method and compared with data obtained using a commercial method in the Alpha hospital. Our data show very good agreement with clinical data. Because clinical protocol involves trienzymes and tedious sample preparation, no doubt, our chemodosimeter will be a cheap and sensitive option compared to the existing clinical methods.
