Advances in Biosensors, Chemosensors and Assays for the Determination of Fusarium Mycotoxins

The contaminations of Fusarium mycotoxins in grains and related products, and the exposure in human body are considerable concerns in food safety and human health worldwide. The common Fusarium mycotoxins include fumonisins, T-2 toxin, deoxynivalenol and zearalenone. For this reason, simple, fast and sensitive analytical techniques are particularly important for the screening and determination ...

Coumarin-Derived Fluorescent Chemosensors

Fluorescent chemosensors are highly valuable in a variety of fields including environmental chemistry, analytical chemistry, and bio-medicinal science. They have provided accurate, on-line, and low-cost detection of toxic heavy metal ions, anions, and enzymes with high selectivity and sensitivity. Coumarins, with the structure of benzopyrone, have many advantages including high fluorescence qua...
