Cover Story: The extensive use of antibiotics by living systems has led to their large accumulation in water streams and the environment. This poses serious risks to human health and environmental well-being. Therefore, it is essential to find a suitable sensing probe for the trace detection of antibiotics in water. We developed a new nanoscale fluorescent Zn(II) coordination polymer, TB-Zn-CP, for differential sensing of various antibiotics in water. TB-Zn-CP exhibited a high binding affinity for chloramphenicol, 1,2-dimethyl-5-nitroimidazole, and sulfamethazine antibiotics with nanomolar levels of sensitivity. The differential sensing responses of TB-Zn-CP for different antibiotics were also reflected by marked visual color changes. This study demonstrates that TB-Zn-CP can be a useful sensor for differential sensing of antibiotics in water. View this paper
