Visible fluorescence chemosensor for saxitoxin.

ABSTRACT: Absorption spectra of a number of shellfish extracts have been obtained and reveal prominent absorptions in all samples at 210 and 260 nm and at 325 nm in some of them. These absorptions preclude the use of chromophores with similar absorptions in testing of shellfish samples for paralytic shellfish toxins. Two crown ether chemosensors featuring a boron azadipyrrin chromophore have been synthesized; both have absorption maxima at 650 nm, where all the shellfish extracts are transparent. The synthetic sensors feature either 18- or 27-membered crown ether rings and have been evaluated as visible sensors for the paralytic shellfish toxin saxitoxin. The binding constant for one of them is in the range of 3-9x10(5) M-1 and exhibits a fluorescence enhancement of over 100% at 680 nm in the presence of 40 microM saxitoxin.

Fluorescence Anion Chemosensor Array Based on Pyrenylboronic Acid.

Project description:A novel fluorescence chemosensor array composed of pyrenylboronic acid-based probes for multi- anion detection has been developed. The pyrenylboronic acid derivatives showed fluorescence quenching or enhancement due to photoinduced electron transfer originating from anion binding. The recognition ability was assessed by fluorescence titrations and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Because the array is constructed with cross-reactive probes, the combination of differential binding affinities for anions (i.e., fluoride, acetate, oxalate, malonate, citrate, dihydrogen phosphate, and pyrophosphate) and pattern recognitions, such as linear discriminant analysis, offered a successful simultaneous anion detection with a classification rate of 100%. Furthermore, the chemosensor array allowed for quantitative prediction of oxalate, malonate, and citrate in mixtures using a support vector machine. Importantly, the array system employs low-cost and commercially available reagents as probes. Thus, this study could lead to the development of user-friendly and high-throughput methods to detect a variety of analytes in complicated systems.

Visible and near infrared fluorescence spectral flow cytometry.

Project description:There is a long standing interest in measuring complete emission spectra from individual cells in flow cytometry. We have developed flow cytometry instruments and analysis approaches to enable this to be done routinely and robustly. Our spectral flow cytometers use a holographic grating to disperse light from single cells onto a CCD for high speed, wavelength-resolved detection. Customized software allows the single cell spectral data to be displayed and analyzed to produce new spectra-derived parameters. We show that familiar reference and calibration beads can be employed to quantitatively assess instrument performance. We use microspheres stained with six different quantum dots to compare a virtual bandpass filter approach with classic least squares (CLS) spectral unmixing, and then use antibody capture beads and CLS unmixing to demonstrate immunophenotyping of peripheral blood mononuclear cells using spectral flow cytometry. Finally, we characterize and evaluate several near infrared (NIR) emitting fluorophores for use in spectral flow cytometry. Spectral flow cytometry offers a number of attractive features for single cell analysis, including a simplified optical path, high spectral resolution, and streamlined approaches to quantitative multiparameter measurements. The availability of robust instrumentation, software, and analysis approaches will facilitate the development of spectral flow cytometry applications.

Stimulated Raman Excited Fluorescence Spectroscopy of Visible Dyes.

Project description:Fluorescence spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy are two major classes of spectroscopy methods in physical chemistry. Very recently, stimulated Raman excited fluorescence (SREF) has been demonstrated ( Xiong, H.; et al. Nature Photonics , 2019 , 13 , 412 - 417 ) as a new hybrid spectroscopy that combines the vibrational specificity of Raman spectroscopy with the superb sensitivity of fluorescence spectroscopy (down to the single-molecule level). However, this proof-of-concept study was limited by both the tunability of the commercial laser source and the availability of the excitable molecules in the near-infrared. As a result, the generality of SREF spectroscopy remains unaddressed, and the understanding of the critical electronic preresonance condition is lacking. In this work, we built a modified excitation source to explore SREF spectroscopy in the visible region. Harnessing a large palette of red dyes, we have systematically studied SREF spectroscopy on a dozen different cases with a fine spectral interval of several nanometers. The results not only establish the generality of SREF spectroscopy for a wide range of molecules but also reveal a tight window of proper electronic preresonance for the stimulated Raman pumping process. Our theoretical modeling and further experiments on newly synthesized dyes also support the obtained insights, which would be valuable in designing and optimizing future SREF experiments for single-molecule vibrational spectroscopy and supermultiplex vibrational imaging.

Pentiptycene-Derived Fluorescence Turn-Off Polymer Chemosensor for Copper(II) Cation with High Selectivity and Sensitivity.

Project description:Fluorescent conjugated polymers (FCPs) have been explored for selective detection of metal cations with ultra-sensitivity in environmental and biological systems. Herein, a new FCP sensor, tmeda-PPpETE (poly[(pentiptycene ethynylene)-alt-(thienylene ethynylene)] with a N,N,N'-trimethylethylenediamino receptor), has been designed and synthesized via Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction with the goal of improving solid state polymer sensor development. The polymer was found to be emissive at λmax ~ 459 nm under UV radiation with a quantum yield of 0.119 at room temperature in THF solution. By incorporating diamino receptors and pentiptycene groups into the poly[(phenylene ethynylene)-(thiophene ethynylene)] (PPETE) backbone, the polymer showed an improved turn-off response towards copper(II) cation, with more than 99% quenching in fluorescence emission. It is capable of discriminating copper(II) cation from sixteen common cations, with a detection limit of 16.5 nM (1.04 ppb).

Effect of Crown Ether Ring Size on Binding and Fluorescence Response to Saxitoxin in Anthracylmethyl Monoaza Crown Ether Chemosensors.

Project description:Convenient macrocyclization synthetic routes for the preparation of different-sized monoaza anthracylmethyl crown ether chemsensors (15-crown-5, 18-crown-6, 21-crown-7, 24-crown-8 and 27-crown-9) are described. Evaluation of these crowns as chemosensors for saxitoxin revealed that the larger crowns have moderately higher binding constants, with the 27-crown-9 chemosensor having the largest binding constant: 2.29×10(5) M(-1). Fluorescence enhancements of 100% were observed at saxitoxin concentrations of 5 ?M, which is close to the detection limit in mouse bioassay.

Visible fluorescence detection of type III protein secretion from bacterial pathogens.

Project description:Type III protein secretion is essential for many gram-negative bacterial infections of host cells and an attractive target for new antibacterial drugs. Here, we describe a bacterial protein effector-carboxypeptidase G2 (CPG2) reporter system for fluorescence and visible detection of type III protein secretion in Salmonella typhimurium. This system provides a general method for measuring protein expression and secretion as well as a high-throughput and quantitative assay for analyzing type III protein secretion inhibitors.

Excitation-dependent visible fluorescence in decameric nanoparticles with monoacylglycerol cluster chromophores.

Project description:Organic fluorescent nanoparticles, excitation-dependent photoluminescence, hydrogen-bonded clusters and lysobisphosphatidic acid are four interesting individual topics in materials and biological sciences. They have attracted much attention not only because of their unique properties and important applications, but also because the nature of their intriguing phenomena remained unclear. Here we report a new type of organic fluorescent nanoparticles with intense blue and excitation-dependent visible fluorescence in the range of 410-620 nm. The nanoparticles are composed of ten bis(monoacylglycerol)bisphenol-A molecules and the self-assembly occurs only in elevated concentrations of 2-monoacylglycerol via radical-catalysed 3,2-acyl migration from 3-monoacylglycerol in neat conditions. The excitation-dependent fluorescence behaviour is caused by chromophores composed of hydrogen-bonded monoacylglycerol clusters, which are linked by an extensive hydrogen-bonding network between the ester carbonyl groups and the protons of the alcohols with collective proton motion and HO···C=O (n??) interactions.

Visible Light Chemical Micropatterning Using a Digital Light Processing Fluorescence Microscope.

Project description:Patterning chemical reactivity with a high spatiotemporal resolution and chemical versatility is critically important for advancing revolutionary emergent technologies, including nanorobotics, bioprinting, and photopharmacology. Current methods are complex and costly, necessitating novel techniques that are easy to use and compatible with a wide range of chemical functionalities. This study reports the development of a digital light processing (DLP) fluorescence microscope that enables the structuring of visible light (465-625 nm) for high-resolution photochemical patterning and simultaneous fluorescence imaging of patterned samples. A range of visible-light-driven photochemical systems, including thiol-ene photoclick reactions, Wolff rearrangements of diazoketones, and photopolymerizations, are shown to be compatible with this system. Patterning the chemical functionality onto microscopic polymer beads and films is accomplished with photographic quality and resolutions as high as 2.1 μm for Wolff rearrangement chemistry and 5 μm for thiol-ene chemistry. Photoactivation of molecules in living cells is demonstrated with single-cell resolution, and microscale 3D printing is achieved using a polymer resin with a 20 μm xy-resolution and a 100 μm z-resolution. Altogether, this work debuts a powerful and easy-to-use platform that will facilitate next-generation nanorobotic, 3D printing, and metamaterial technologies.

A Naphthalimide-Based Fluorescence "Off-on-Off" Chemosensor for Relay Detection of Al<sup>3+</sup> and ClO.

Project description:A novel Al3+ chemosensor NPA was designed and synthesized on basis of the mechanism of ICT and CHEF. Upon addition of Al3+, the probe NPA displayed a bright green fluorescence under UV radiation and visual color change from yellow to colorless. Spectrum titrations showed that NPA could be recognized as a fluorescent turn-on probe with 10-8 M detection level. The probe was successfully applied in real water sample and test paper. More important, NPA-Al3+ complex were used as a fluorescent turn-off probe for the detection of ClO- with the detection as low as 2.34 × 10-8 M. The performance of NPA to Al3+ and NPA-Al3+ complex to ClO- demonstrated that NPA could be served as a sensitive probe and exhibit INHIBIT logic gate behavior with Al3+ and ClO- as inputs.

A stereocontrolled synthesis of (+)-saxitoxin.

Project description:A concise stereoselective total synthesis of (+)-saxitoxin is described. A silver(I)-initiated hydroamination cascade constructs the bicyclic guanidinium ion core from a alkynyl bisguanidine. This sequence creates two C-N bonds, one C-O bond, and three rings and forms a single stereoisomer in a single synthetic transformation. This process enabled us to complete the synthesis of (+)-saxitoxin in 14 steps from N-Boc-l-serine methyl ester.
