  • CRISPR-based detection has long been challenged by the separation of amplification and detection steps. In this study, Cheng et al., show that heparin sodium modulates Cas12 cleavage activity and apply a one pot system to detect clinical influenza A virus and SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater.

  • Structural vacancies in crystalline solids have potential in tuning optoelectronic properties. However, the random distribution of vacancies a problem when creating materials with completely reproducible functions. Here authors use vacancy engineering to improve electronic communication between cluster units in 3D orientationally ordered MOF crystals.

  • Achieving precise and controllable hierarchical self-assembly of nanoclusters within crystal lattices is of immense significance yet remains challenging. Here the authors synthesize a silver nanowheel Ag40, along with its optically pure enantiomers S-/R-Ag40, and characterize its self-assembly into double- and triple-helical superstructures.

  • Incorporating dual fluorescence and phosphorescence into a single matrix is attractive for oxygen sensing, but material design is challenging. Here the authors achieve dual fluorescence-phosphorescence from a single linker chromophore in a silver chalcogenolate-cluster-based metal-organic framework.

  • Chiral coinage metal clusters show promise for use in emerging circularly polarized light-emitting materials and diodes but research on efficient circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) with enantiopure metal clusters remains elusive. Herein, the authors design a multidentate chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand which is used in the synthesis of enantiopure Au(I)-Cu(I) clusters with exceptional stability and demonstrate application of these clusters in the fabrication of CP-OLEDs
