We propose the potential of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and surface plasmon-enhanced auto-fluorescence spectroscopy (SPEAS) for the label-free identification and quantification of bacterial pathogens at low concentrations collecting its unique auto-fluorescence and Raman signatures utilising highly anisotropic three-dimensional nanostructures of silver nano dendrites (Ag-NDs). The SERS data facilitates qualitative bacterial identification using the spectral features coming from the bacterial cell wall compound, and the SPEAS data was utilised to gain unique auto-fluorescence spectra present on the bacterial cell wall with enhanced quantification. The enhancement of Raman and auto-fluorescence signals of Ag-NDs were first evaluated using rhodamine 6g (R6G) as a probe molecule that exhibits a significant enhancement of 106 and limit of detection (LOD) of 10-12 M for SERS and 15 fold intensity enhancement and LOD of 10-15 M for SPEAS measurements. Further, the SERS and SPEAS measurements of bacterial pathogens, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), using the Ag-NDs were recorded, and the results exhibit high auto-fluorescence and Raman signal intensity for both the samples up to 100 cfu/ml for both modalities. The significant photon count and distinct emission range in SPEAS measurements of bacteria enables accurate quantification. Therefore, the comprehensive investigation of plasmonic enhancement of Ag-NDs for SPEAS and SERS techniques provides complementary information about molecules to enable accurate and quick identification and quantification of pathogens.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142837755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effective management requires rapid identification of pathogens and their antibiotic resistance profiles. In this study, we utilized the photoconvertible mEos4b protein, which transitions from green to red fluorescence upon blue light exposure, to distinguish live from dead bacteria. The mEos4b gene was cloned into a prokaryotic vector and expressed inEscherichia coliBL21. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the transgenic bacteria was determined for five antibiotics, followed by a post-antibiotic effect assessment over a two-hour exposure period. The optimal photoconversion time for mEos4b was established as 90 s, and confocal microscopy was used to visualize live (green) and dead (red) cells post-exposure. The mEos4b-TR system proved highly specific, accurately distinguishing live and dead bacteria without producing false positives, even in control groups, which is a common issue in commercial live-dead kits. By relying on cellular metabolic activity rather than dyes, this system minimizes nonspecific interactions and contamination, making it more reliable than traditional methods prone to false readings. These results highlight the potential of the mEos4b-TR system as a superior alternative for rapid, precise bacterial viability assessments, particularly in determining antibiotic susceptibility. This preliminary study demonstrates the system's differentiation of viable and non-viable cells, suggesting its potential application in future studies involving novel antibacterial agents to refine antibiotic sensitivity testing.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142623968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The LEGO-LPPO mechanism of antibacterial action has been determined to be the depolarization and disruption of bacterial membranes. Their modular nature is advantageous for fine tuning their biological properties. In order to optimize the structure of LEGO-LPPO even further, it is important to understand the interaction of LEGO-LPPO with bacterial membranes at the molecular level. In this work, we present the synthesis of five LEGO-LPPO (designated as1_naph2-4-G to5_naph2-4-G) molecules bearing fluorescent naphtylethyl moieties and their usage in the study of LEGO-LPPO behaviour in the membrane. Our goal was to characterize fluorescently labelled LEGO-LPPO under conditions that do not completely disrupt the membrane, mostly in the form of membrane-bound monomers. We observed the intramolecular interactions of hydrophobic modules of1_naph2-4-G in the buffer by detecting dynamic naphthyl excimers and their disappearance after1_naph2-4-G bind into the membranes. In the membrane, the molecule1_naph2-4-G slightly affects the membrane fluidity of DOPG membranes above the phase transition. The naphthyl fluorophore itself has fast and almost unrestricted rotation around ethylene linking groups (rinf= 0.010), which indicates a considerable chaotropic effect of the hydrophobic modules of1_naph2-4-G at the given depth of the membrane.1_naph2-4-G proved to be a useful model for observing the interaction of LEGO-LPPO antibiotics with the phospholipid bilayer enabling us to decipher its effects on membrane state and dynamics; its binding and penetration into the membrane, its structure and the particular depth that it occupies.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142503960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The response of algal cells to controlled white light and DCMU herbicide was analyzed by monitoring changes in peak FL intensity at 680 nm and in F680/F750 ratio. Determining the association between the selected spectral FL parameters revealed an exponential relationship, which provides a quantitative description of photoinduced changes. The ability to discern the effect of DCMU not only in the autofluorescence spectra of dark-adapted cells, but also in the case of light-adapted cells, and even after certain doses of excess light, suggests that the proposed autofluorescence analysis ofN. obtusamay be useful for detecting external stressors in the field.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141902303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, controlling toxicity due to the presence of Pb2+in lead-based halide perovskites is a major challenge for the environment that needs to be tackled cautiously. In this work, we have partially replaced Pb2+with Mn2+ions in the CsPb(Cl/Br)3nanocrystals and investigated their impact on the structural and optical properties. The Rietveld refinement shows that CsPbCl2Br nanocrystals possess a cubic crystal structure withPm3̅mspace group, the Mn2+doping results in the contraction of the unit cell. The CsPb(Cl/Br)3: Mn nanocrystals show a substantial change in the optical properties with an additional emission band at ∼588 nm through a d-d transition, changing the emission color from blue to pink. Here, a didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB) ligand that triggers both anion and ligand exchange in the CsPb(Cl/Br)3: Mn nanocrystals have been used to regulate the exchange reaction and tune the emission color of halide perovskites by changing the peak position and the PL intensities of band-edge and Mn2+defect states. We have also shown that oleic acid helps in the desorption of oleylamine capping from the CsPb(Cl/Br)3: Mn nanocrystal surfaces and DDAB, resulting in the substitution of Cl-with Br-as well as provides capping with shorter branched length ligand which led to increase in the overall PL intensity by many folds.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141902304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
