Therefore, in this article, it has been evaluated the promising alternative alkali metals of sodium-ion and potassium-ion, batteries. The hypothesis of the hydrogen adsorption phenomenon was confirmed by density distributions of charge density differences (CDD), total density of state (TDOS), and electron localization function (ELF) for of Li[GeO-SiO], Na[GeO-SiO] or K[GeO-SiO] heterostructures that have revealed an efficient charge transfer owing to the internal electric field. Regardless of adsorption configurations of H2 molecules, the region of charge density variation is mainly concentrated between the H2 molecule and the layers of Li[GeO-SiO], Na[GeO-SiO] or K[GeO-SiO] heterostructures atoms. The maximum energy of TDOS for K[GeO-SiO] with several peaks around -0.35, -0.45, -0.6 and -0.75 a.u. with maximum density of state of ≈ 23 around -0.35 a.u. has been revealed. As the advantages of lithium, sodium or potassium over Si/Ge possess its higher electron and hole motion, allowing lithium, sodium or potassium instruments to operate at higher frequencies than Si/Ge instruments. K[GeO-SiO]-2H2 and Na[GeO-SiO]-2H2 heterostructures with band gap of 0.9230 and 0.8963 eV, respectively can be more efficient for hydrogen grabbing. The findings suggest that the proposed heterostructures offer appropriate band edge positions for saving energy in the batteries. Furthermore, the calculations have revealed that non-magnetic dopants can induce stable half-metallic ferromagnetic ground state in Li/Na/K. In particular, at the same levels of doping, the K/Na-doped [GeO-SiO] heterostructure framework exhibited the strongest H2 binding.","PeriodicalId":15800,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143468108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Surfactants are amphiphilic molecules with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions and can self-assemble into micelles above the critical micelle concentration, with the hydrophobic tails oriented inwards and hydrophilic head outwards. In this review article, critical micelle concentration determination using the fluorescence spectroscopy technique is described for both single and mixed micellar systems with the preparation of samples, working principle, and also about theoretical aspects. Fluorescence measurements using direct i.e. intrinsic fluorescence of surfactant molecule and indirect i.e. using extrinsic fluorescence probes have been discussed. Fluorescence spectroscopy offers a sensitive and valid approach for the characterization of surfactant behaviors in aqueous solutions. Various fluorescence parameters are measured at specific wavelengths with an increase in surfactant concentration and a plot is generated from which the critical micelle concentration is determined. Furthermore, the calculation of critical packing parameter is also described which gives an idea about the geometrical arrangement of the surfactant molecules in a micellar structure. This value also provides valuable insights into the micelle's shape and structure. In conclusion, the effectiveness of the fluorescence spectroscopy technique in determining the critical micelle concentration and the critical packing parameter is described in detail in this review article.","PeriodicalId":15800,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents a novel approach to fabricating highly fluorescent Carbon dots (CDs) through a facile one-step thermal calcination method, utilizing disposable face masks as the exclusive carbon source. The developed CDs demonstrated excellent fluorescence stability, excitation-dependent emission and particle sizes ranging from 4 - 10 nm. The developed CDs demonstrated efficient fluorescence quenching upon interaction with Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), attributed to the robust bonding between the bacterial species and the CD surface. This unique property positions the CDs as functional sensors for the detection of specific bacterial strains. The sensor displayed an impressive limit of detection, reaching as low as 8 CFU/ml for E. coli and 9 CFU/ml for S. aureus. Furthermore, the synthesized CDs were integrated into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix to fabricate PVA@CDs films. These films inherited the distinctive optical characteristics of fluorescent CDs, resulting in intense cyan fluorescence emission, high visible transparency, and an exceptional approximately 100% ultraviolet (UV) rays-blocking ratio in the UV region. This multifaceted approach not only addresses the urgent need for effective pathogenic bacterial detection but also extends the application of CDs to UV-blocking films with potential implications for various fields, including healthcare and environmental safety.","PeriodicalId":15800,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143440465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When combined with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), diffusion times and conformation lifetimes can be obtained. Alternating excitation (ALEX) further complements spFRET measurements on freely diffusing molecules, allowing for burst analysis, which can be used to reduce background signal without significant changes to the experimental setup. ALEX is particularly useful for extracting conformational dynamics, but extracting small differences in FRET levels and/or diffusion times can still be difficult for multi-species samples with fast or slow transition rates. Though the combination of spFRET, FCS and ALEX can help to constrain the fits of correlation curves, a rigorous analysis of the range of lifetimes that can be probed with a combination of these methods is lacking. Here, we simulated spFRET-ALEX-FCS experiments of molecules with two conformations that differ both in FRET levels and in diffusion coefficients, representative of fully wrapped and partially unwrapped nucleosomes. We show that we can distinguish small changes in the diffusion coefficient and that burst selection yields accurate lifetimes ranging from 100 us to 100 ms. The simulations provide a framework that can be expanded for more complex systems having a larger number of conformational states, variable stoichiometries from binding interactions and/or other excitation schemes.","PeriodicalId":15800,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143441217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although curcumin exhibits potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antitumor properties, its clinical application is limited by poor solubility, low bioavailability, and rapid metabolism. In this study, we developed a microorganism-metal-organic framework (MOF)-based carrier (1-CP1) by combining a novel Zn(II) coordination polymer, [Zn(Hbcb)(PYTPY)] (1), with CP1. The carrier, loaded with curcumin to form 1-CP1@Curcumin, significantly enhanced the solubility, bioavailability, and stability of curcumin. Fluorescence assays revealed that the composite demonstrated a fluorescence emission peak at 511 nm, with a strong response to Fe³⁺ ions, showing a quenching efficiency of over 95%. In vitro experiments on LNCaP prostate cancer cells showed that 1-CP1@Curcumin significantly inhibited cell viability, with a reduction of approximately 50% at 20 µM curcumin concentration after 48 h of treatment. Additionally, quantitative PCR analysis of apoptosis-related gene expression revealed a significant decrease in Bcl-2 mRNA levels, indicating that the composite induced apoptosis in prostate cancer cells. These results highlight that 1-CP1@Curcumin effectively overcomes curcumin's delivery limitations and offers strong antitumor efficacy, providing an innovative platform for potential clinical applications in prostate cancer therapy.","PeriodicalId":15800,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143425529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sensing mechanism relies on a unique disaggregation phenomenon observed under acidic conditions, where electrostatic repulsion between positively charged NS-CDs and metformin molecules leads to enhanced fluorescence emission. Upon metformin addition, the NS-CDs exhibit differential enhancement of their characteristic emission peaks, with the 562 nm peak showing markedly greater amplification than the 365 nm peak. This distinctive response enabled the development of a ratiometric detection approach using the F562/F365 intensity ratio as an analytical signal, providing enhanced measurement reliability by minimizing biological matrix interferences. The sensor demonstrated excellent analytical performance with a linear response range of 0.05-0.9 µM and an impressive detection limit of 15 nM, surpassing the sensitivity of many previously reported methods. The method exhibited remarkable selectivity toward metformin in the presence of common interferents including co-administered drugs, biomolecules, and ionic species typically present in plasma samples. The practical utility of the sensor was validated through successful application in pharmacokinetic studies in rabbit plasma following oral metformin administration, demonstrating its potential for therapeutic drug monitoring and bioanalytical applications. This sensing platform combines high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, and rapid response time, making it a promising tool for metformin quantification in complex biological matrices.","PeriodicalId":15800,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143408293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
