“…One is the long-term stability of the probe would face challenges from the liquid environment resulted undesired activity, and the other is the inevitable transport and diffusion of either the solid analyte or the reaction product would cause a fatal dilution of the limited color signal. In terms of the above issues, various mediums have been investigated, such as paper strips, , fibrous membranes, , hydrogels, − and so on, mainly focusing on solving the second challenge. However, no matter what kind of materials or technologies applied for solid–liquid type sensing, remarkably fundamental and crucial role of solvent should not be neglected.…”
