Title A name given to the resource Heavy metal ion sensing strategies using fluorophores for environmental remediation Subject The topic of the resource Analytical techniques; Biological fluorophores; Environmental issues; Heavy metal ions; Organic dyes; Quantum dots Description An account of the resource The main aim of this review is to provide a holistic summary of the latest advances within the research area focusing on the detection of heavy metal ion pollution, particularly the sensing strategies. The review explores various heavy metal ion detection approaches, encompassing spectrometry, electrochemical methods, and optical techniques. Numerous initiatives have been undertaken in recent times in response to the increasing demand for fast, sensitive, and selective sensors. Notably, fluorescent sensors have acquired prominence owing to the numerous advantages such as good specificity, reversibility, and sensitivity. Further, this review also explores the advantages of various nanomaterials employed in sensing heavy metal ions. In this regard, exclusive emphasis is placed on fluorescent nanomaterials based on organic dyes, quantum dots, and fluorescent aptasensors for metal ion removal from aqueous systems, and to identify the fate of heavy metal ions in the natural environment. 2024 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Shanmugavel A.; Rene E.R.; Balakrishnan S.P.; Krishnakumar N.; Jose S.P.
