A Redox-Nucleophilic Dual-Reactable Probe for Highly Selective and Sensitive Detection of H2S: Synthesis, Spectra and Bioimaging.

ABSTRACT: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important signalling molecule with multiple biological functions. The reported H2S fluorescent probes are majorly based on redox or nucleophilic reactions. The combination usage of both redox and nucleophilic reactions could improve the probe's selectivity, sensitivity and stability. Herein we report a new dual-reactable probe with yellow turn-on fluorescence for H2S detection. The sensing mechanism of the dual-reactable probe was based on thiolysis of NBD (7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole) amine (a nucleophilic reaction) and reduction of azide to amine (a redox reaction). Compared with its corresponding single-reactable probes, the dual-reactable probe has higher selectivity and fluorescence turn-on fold with magnitude of multiplication from that of each single-reactable probe. The highly selective and sensitive properties enabled the dual-reactable probe as a useful tool for efficiently sensing H2S in aqueous buffer and in living cells.

A Highly Sensitive and Selective Fluorescein-Based Cu<sup>2+</sup> Probe and Its Bioimaging in Cell.

Project description:Copper is a vital trace metal in human body, which plays the significant roles in amounts of physiological and pathological processes. The application of copper-selective probe has attracted great interests from environmental tests to life process research, yet a few of sensitive Cu2+ tests based on on-site analysis have been reported. In this paper, a novel fluorescein-based fluorescent probe N4 was designed, synthesized, and characterized, which exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity to Cu2+ comparing with other metal ions in ethanol-water (1/1, v/v) solution. The probe N4 bonded with Cu2+ to facilitate the ring-opening, and an obvious new band at 525 nm in the fluorescence spectroscopy appeared, which could be used for naked-eye detection of Cu2+ within a broad pH range of 6-9. Meanwhile, a good linearity between the fluorescence intensity and the concentrations of Cu2+ ranged 0.1-1.5 eq. was observed, and the limit of detection of N4 to Cu2+ was calculated to be as low as 1.20 μm. In addition, the interaction mode between N4 and Cu2+ was found to be 1:1 by the Job's plot and mass experiment. Biological experiments showed that the probe N4 exhibited low biological toxicity and could be applied for Cu2+ imaging in living cells. The significant color shift associated with the production of the N4-Cu2+ complex at low micromolar concentrations under UV light endows N4 with a promising probe for field testing of trace Cu2+ ions.

A Near-Infrared Ratiometric Fluorescent Probe for Highly Selective Recognition and Bioimaging of Cysteine.

Project description:A benzothiazole-based near-infrared (NIR) ratiometric fluorescent probe (HBT-Cys) was developed for discriminating cysteine (Cys) from homocysteine (Hcy) and glutathione (GSH). The probe was designed by masking phenol group in the conjugated benzothiazole derivative with methacrylate group that could be selectively removed by Cys, and therefore an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) fluorescence was switched on in the NIR region. In the absence of Cys, the probe exhibited a strong blue fluorescence emission at 431 nm, whereas a NIR fluorescence emission at 710 nm was significantly enhanced accompanied by a decrease of emission at 431 nm in the presence of Cys, allowing a ratiometric fluorescence detection of Cys. The fluorescence intensity ratio (I710nm/I431nm) showed a good linear relationship with Cys concentration of 1-40 μM with the detection limit of 0.5 μM. The sensing mechanism was explored based on MS experimental analysis and DFT theoretical calculation. Moreover, the fluorescent probe was successfully used for fluorescence bioimaging of Cys in living cells.

A dual responsive fluorescent probe for selective detection of cysteine and bisulfite and its application in bioimaging.

Project description:A coumarin-based dual responsive fluorescent probe with a simple structure was developed for the detection of Cys and HSO3 -. Under simulated physiological conditions, Cou-F displayed an on-off fluorescence response to Cys at 521 nm and an off-on fluorescence response to HSO3 - at 500 nm. Furthermore, Cou-F had the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity and rapid response. The detection limits of Cou-F toward Cys and HSO3 - were 0.54 μM and 0.65 μM, respectively. Cou-F enabled high selective responses to Cys and HSO3 - over other biologically related species. The response times of Cou-F toward Cys and HSO3 - were 80 s and 100 s. The fluorescence imaging of Cys and HSO3 - was achieved in living RAW246.7 cells.

A Highly Sensitive and Selective Nano-Fluorescent Probe for Ratiometric and Visual Detection of Oxytetracycline Benefiting from Dual Roles of Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Dots.

Project description:The specific detection of oxytetracycline (OTC) residues is significant for food safety and environmental monitoring. However, rapid specific determination of OTC from various tetracyclines is still challenging due to their similar chemical structures. Here, nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCDs) with excitation and pH-dependent optical properties and a high-fluorescence quantum yield were successfully synthesized, which were directly employed to fabricate a dual-response fluorescence probe by self-assembly with Eu3+ (NCDs/Eu3+) for the ratiometric determination of OTC. The addition of OTC into the probe greatly enhances the characteristic emission of Eu3+ due to the "antenna effect", and the incorporation of NCDs into the probe further improves the Eu3+ fluorescence by remarkably weakening the quenching effect caused by H2O molecules and efficiently shortening the distance of energy transfer from OTC to Eu3+. Meanwhile, the fluorescence of NCDs apparently decreases due to aggregation-caused quenching. The results demonstrate that a ratiometric detection of OTC (0.1-25 µM) with a detection limit of 29 nM based on the double response signals is achieved. Additionally, visual semi-quantitative assay of OTC can be realized with the naked eye under a 365 nm UV lamp according to the fluorescence color change of the as-fabricated probe. This probe exhibits acceptable specificity and anti-interference for OTC assay, holding promise for the fast detection of OTC in real water and milk samples.

Non-invasive sensitive brain tumor detection using dual-modality bioimaging nanoprobe.

Project description:Despite decades of efforts, non-invasive sensitive detection of small malignant brain tumors still remains challenging. Here we report a dual-modality 124I-labeled gold nanostar (124I-GNS) probe for sensitive brain tumor imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) and subcellular tracking with two-photon photoluminescence (TPL) and electron microscopy (EM). Experiment results showed that the developed nanoprobe has potential to reach sub-millimeter intracranial brain tumor detection using PET scan, which is superior to any currently available non-invasive imaging modality. Microscopic examination using TPL and EM further confirmed that GNS nanoparticles permeated the brain tumor leaky vasculature and accumulated inside brain tumor cells following systemic administration. Selective brain tumor targeting by enhanced permeability and retention effect and ultrasensitive imaging render 124I-GNS nanoprobe promise for future brain tumor-related preclinical and translational applications.

Project description:A new highly selective and sensitive fluorescent probe for Cu2+, N-n-butyl-4-(1'-cyclooctene-1',3',6'-triazole)-1,8-naphthalimide (L), was synthesized and evaluated. The structure of compound L was characterized via IR, ¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR and HRMS. The fluorescent probe was quenched by Cu2+ with a 1:1 binding ratio and behaved as a "turn-off" sensor. An efficient and sensitive spectrofluorometric method was developed for detecting and estimating trace levels of Cu2+ in EtOH/H₂O. The ligand exhibited excitation and emission maxima at 447 and 518 nm, respectively. The equilibrium binding constant of the ligand with Cu2+ was 1.57 × 10⁴ M-1, as calculated using the Stern.

Oriented, molecularly imprinted cavities with dual binding sites for highly sensitive and selective recognition of cortisol.

Project description:Novel, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were developed for the highly sensitive and selective recognition of the stress marker cortisol. Oriented, homogeneous cavities with two binding sites for cortisol were fabricated by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization, using a cortisol motif template molecule (TM1) which consists of a polymerizable moiety attached at the 3-carbonyl group of cortisol via an oxime linkage and an adamantane carboxylate moiety coupled with the 21-hydroxyl group. TM1 was orientationally immobilized on a β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-grafted gold-coated sensor chip by inclusion of the adamantane moiety of TM1, followed by copolymerization of a hydrophilic comonomer, 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine, with or without a cross-linker, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide. Subsequent cleavage of the oxime linkage leaves the imprinted cavities that contain dual binding sites-namely, the aminooxy group and β-CD-capable of oxime formation and hydrophobic interaction, respectively. As an application, MIP-based picomolar level detection of cortisol was demonstrated by a competitive binding assay using a fluorescent competitor. Cross-linking of the MIP imparts rigidity to the binding cavities, and improves the selectivity and sensitivity significantly, reducing the limit of detection to 4.8 pM. In addition, detection of cortisol in saliva samples was demonstrated as a feasibility study.

Dual-Surfactant-Capped Ag Nanoparticles as a Highly Selective and Sensitive Colorimetric Sensor for Citrate Detection.

Project description:A colorimetric sensor for the detection of citrate ions is reported here using dual-surfactant-capped Ag nanoparticles (dual-AgNP sensor). A mixture of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and a newly prepared gemini nonionic (GFEO) surfactant was used as a capping agent to synthesize dual-surfactant-capped Ag NPs for selective and sensitive citrate detection. The GFEO surfactant was designed with a specific chemical structure to provide strong binding with citrate for selective and sensitive detection. The developed dual-AgNP sensor showed extremely high selectivity toward citrate even in the presence of interfering species. Quantitative detection of citrate was carried out based on the changes in UV-vis absorbance and naked-eye readout. After optimization, the dual-AgNP sensor exhibited a visual detection limit of 25 μM and a low limit of detection of 4.05 nM with a UV-vis spectrometer. The developed citrate sensor performed well with a urine sample, with a high recovery of 99.6%. The prepared solution sensor was constructed on a paper-based analytical device.
