In order to discriminate Hg2+ and CIP in application scenarios, cysteine (Cys) was utilized to design another ‘INHIBIT’ logic gate, in which Hg2+ and Cys were the two inputs. Thus, an intelligent biosensor with dual-target identification capacity was successfully developed by using a fluorescent natural protein in an ingenious logic gate system.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43880530","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 probe (named RS5) exhibits a red-shift of 54 nm upon binding with Al(III) ion. The significant enhancement response of RS5 at 481 nm is attributed to the formation of a 1:1 complex between the probe and Al(III), wherein RS5 acts as a tridentate NNN-donor ligand. The complexation process is ascertained by 1H, 13C, and 27Al NMR and HR-MS spectral techniques. The binding constant of the complex is determined to be 1.3 × 105 M−1. The ratiometric change in fluorescence upon complexation with Al(III) is ascribed to an increase in intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) transition along with chelation enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) processes. The probe can be applied for monitoring Al(III) in a pH range of 6–8. The limit of detection (LOD) of RS5 for the examination of Al(III) is found to be 0.3 μM. With an aim to understand the sensing behavior of RS5, the optical properties of the probe and its Al(III) complex are investigated using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) methods.

A major limiting factor of semiconductor assisted photocatalysis is the requirement of a continuous source of light to perform a redox reaction. One of the upcoming solutions is photon energy-storing long afterglow/persistent phosphors. They are an unusual kind of rechargeable, photon energy capturing/trapping phosphors that can trap charge carriers (electrons/holes) in their meta-stable energy levels, thereby resulting in persistent luminescence. Persistence luminescence from such materials can range from minutes to hours. The coupling of long afterglow phosphors (LAP) with the conventional semiconductor is a promising way to support the photocatalytic process even in dark. In addition, dissimilar band structures of LAPs and semiconductor results in formation of heterojunction which further suppresses the recombination of charge. Such an encouraging idea of LAP for round-the-clock working photocatalytic system is in its premature stage; which is required to be investigated fully. Thus, we present a state-of-art review on the potential materials for assisting round-the-clock photocatalysis, trapping-detrapping mechanism in LAP materials, fabrication strategies and their associated characterization tools.

To fully exploit the information given by the probe, we carefully re-investigated the thG spectroscopic properties in 12-bp duplexes, when the Set and Ring Associated (SRA) domain of UHRF1 flips its 5′ flanking methylcytosine (mC). The SRA-induced flipping of mC was found to strongly increase the fluorescence intensity of thG, but this increase was much larger when thG was flanked in 3′ by a C residue as compared to an A residue. Surprisingly, the quantum yield and fluorescence lifetime values of thG were nearly constant, regardless of the presence of SRA and the nature of the 3′ flanking residue, suggesting that the differences in fluorescence intensities might be related to changes in absorption properties. We evidenced that thG lowest energy absorption band in the duplexes can be deconvoluted into two bands peaking at ∼350 nm and ∼310 nm, respectively red-shifted and blue-shifted, compared to the spectrum of thG monomer. Using quantum mechanical calculations, we attributed the former to a nearly pure ππ* excitation localized on thG and the latter to excited states with charge transfer character. The amplitude of thG red-shifted band strongly increased when its 3′ flanking C residue was replaced by an A residue in the free duplex, or when its 5′ flanking mC residue was flipped by SRA. As only the species associated with the red-shifted band were found to be emissive, the highly unusual finding of this work is that the brightness of thG in free duplexes as well as its changes on SRA-induced mC flipping almost entirely depend on the relative population and/or absorption coefficient of the red-shifted absorbing species.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45986542","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}

Visible light is commonly used as the excitation source in PDT, which is not ideal for cancer treatment due to its reduced tissue penetration, and thus inefficiency to treat deep-lying tumours. Additionally, these wavelengths exhibit elevated autofluorescence background from the biological tissues which hinders optical biomedical imaging. An alternative to UV–Vis irradiation is the use of near infrared (NIR) excitation for PDT. This can be achieved using upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) functionalised with photosensitiser drugs where UCNPs can be used as an indirect excitation source for the activation of PS drugs yielding to the production of singlet 1O2 following NIR excitation. The use of nanoparticles for PDT is also beneficial due to their tumour targeting capability, either passively via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect or actively via stimuli-responsive targeting and ligand-mediated targeting (i.e. using recognition units that can bind specific receptors only present or overexpressed on tumour cells). Here, we review recent advances in NIR upconverting nanomaterials for PDT of cancer with a clear distinction between those reported nanoparticles that could potentially target the tumour due to accumulation via the EPR effect (passive targeting) and nanoparticle-based systems that contain targeting agents with the aim of actively target the tumour via a molecular recognition process.","PeriodicalId":18596,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Applications in Fluorescence","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45270553","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}
