    Abstract:
    This tutorial demonstrates how to exploit the second-order advantage on excitation-emission fluorescence matrices (EEFMs) acquired from sensing platforms based on analyte-triggered semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) fluorescence modulation (quenching/enhancing). The advantage in processing such second-order EEFMs data from complex samples, seeking successful quantification, is comprehensively addressed. It is worth emphasizing that, aiming to exploit the second-order advantage, the selection of the most appropriate advanced chemometric model should rely on the matching between the data structure and the physicochemical chemometric model assumption. In this sense, the achievement of second-order advantage after EEFMs' processing is extensively addressed throughout this tutorial taking into consideration three different analytical situations, each involving a specific data structure: i) parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), which is applied in a real dataset stacked in a three-way data array containing a trilinear data structure acquired from QDs-based detection with non-selective species; ii) multivariate curve resolution - alternating least-squares (MCR-ALS), which is also employed in a real dataset arranged in an augmented data matrix containing non-trilinear data structure acquired from QDs-based detection with a single breaking mode caused by background signals; iii) unfolded partial least-squares with residual bilinearization (U-PLS/RBL), which is applied in a dataset containing non-trilinear data acquired from a classical fluorescence system with two breaking modes caused by inner filter effect (IFE) in both instrumental modes (excitation and emission). The latter challenging data structure can be acquired via fluorescence quenching from IFE-based sensing platforms and chemometrically handled in two main steps. First, a set of calibration EEFMs data is converted into an unfolded data matrix during the unfolding process, followed by applying U-PLS model. Second, a post-calibration procedure using RBL analysis is applied to a test sample of EEFM maintained in its matrix form, in order to handle potential interferents. In the last section, the state-of-the-art of second-order EEFMs data acquired from semiconductor QDs-based sensing platforms and coupled to multi-way fluorescence data processing to accomplish a successful quantification, even with substantial interfering species, is critically reviewed.
