Highly Sensitive Detection of Benzoyl Peroxide Based on Organoboron Fluorescent Conjugated Polymers.

ABSTRACT: The method capable of rapid and sensitive detection of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) is necessary and receiving increasing attention. In consideration of the vast signal amplification of fluorescent conjugated polymers (FCPs) for high sensitivity detection and the potential applications of boron-containing materials in the emerging sensing fields, the organoboron FCPs, poly (3-aminophenyl boronic acid) (PABA) is directly synthesized via free-radical polymerization reaction by using the commercially available 3-aminophenyl boronic acid (ABA) as the functional monomer and ammonium persulfate as the initiator. PABA is employed as a fluorescence sensor for sensing of trace BPO based on the formation of charge-transfer complexes between PABA and BPO. The fluorescence emission intensity of PABA demonstrates a negative correlation with the concentration of BPO. And a linear range of 8.26 × 10-9 M-8.26 × 10-4 M and a limit of detection of 1.06 × 10-9 M as well as a good recovery (86.25%-111.38%) of BPO in spiked real samples (wheat flour and antimicrobial agent) are obtained. The proposed sensor provides a promising prospective candidate for the rapid detection and surveillance of BPO.

Fluorene-Based Fluorometric and Colorimetric Conjugated Polymers for Sensitive Detection of 2,4,6-Trinitrophenol Explosive in Aqueous Medium.

Project description:Nitroaromatic explosives are a class of compounds that are responsible for various health hazards and terrorist outrages. Among these, sensitive detection of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) explosive has always been highly desirable considering public health and national security. In this regard, three fluorene-based conjugated polymers (CP 1, CP 2, and CP 3) were synthesized through the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction and were found to be highly sensitive for fluorescence detection of TNP with detection limits of 3.2, 5.7, and 6.1 pM, respectively. Excellent selectivity of CPs toward TNP was attributed to their unique π-π interactions based on fluorescence studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The high sensitivity of CPs to TNP was attributed to the static quenching mechanism based on the photoinduced electron transfer process and was evaluated by fluorescence, UV-visible absorption, dynamic light scattering, Job's plots, the Benesi-Hildebrand plots, and DFT calculations. CPs were also used for colorimetric and real-water sample analysis for the detection of TNP explosive. Meanwhile, sensor-coated test strips were fabricated for on-site detection of TNP, which makes them convenient solid-supported sensors.

Highly Sensitive and Selective Fluorescent Detection of Gossypol Based on BSA-Stabilized Copper Nanoclusters.

Project description:In this paper, fluorescent copper nanoclusters (NCs) are used as a novel probe for the sensitive detection of gossypol for the first time. Based on a fluorescence quenching mechanism induced by interactions between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and gossypol, fluorescent BSA-Cu NCs were seen to exhibit a high sensitivity to gossypol in the range of 0.1?100 µM. The detection limit for gossypol is 25 nM at a signal-to-noise ratio of three, which is approximately 35 times lower than the acceptable limit (0.9 µM) defined by the US Food and Drug Administration for cottonseed products. Moreover, the proposed method for gossypol displays excellent selectivity over many common interfering species. We also demonstrate the application of the present method to the measurement of several real samples with satisfactory recoveries, and the results agree well with those obtained using the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. The method based on Cu NCs offers the followings advantages: simplicity of design, facile preparation of nanomaterials, and low experimental cost.

Multimodal Fluorescent Polymer Sensor for Highly Sensitive Detection of Nitroaromatics.

Project description:Detection of nitroaromatic explosives with high sensitivity and selectivity is extremely important for civilian and military safety. Here, we report the synthesis and multimodal sensing applications of an emissive alanine based dansyl tagged copolymer P(MMA-co-Dansyl-Ala-HEMA) (DCP), synthesized by RAFT copolymerization. The fluorescent co-polymer exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity towards conventional nitroaromatic explosives such as DNT, TNT and TNP in solution at lower range of µM level and also with saturated vapor of NACs. The quantum yield of the co-polymer was measured to be very high (?f?=?77%) which make it an ideal candidate for sensing in solution as well as in vapor phase. The fluorescence signal from DCP copolymer gets significantly quenched upon addition of aliquots of DNT, TNT, and TNP. The Stern-Volmer constant was calculated to be very high. The quenching mechanism was further established by fluorescence up-conversion, time-resolved fluorescence and steady state absorption spectroscopy. The energetics of sensing process was calculated by Density Functional Theory (DFT) studies. We also fabricate a thin film polymer sensor which was able to detect nitroaromatic vapors with high selectivity. This opens up the possibility of building a low-cost and light-weight nitroaromatic explosives sensor for field use.

Horseradish Peroxidase-Encapsulated Fluorescent Bio-Nanoparticle for Ultra-Sensitive and Easy Detection of Hydrogen Peroxide.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has been a fascinating target in various chemical, biological, clinical, and industrial fields. Several types of fluorescent protein-stabilized gold nanoclusters (protein-AuNCs) have been developed for sensitive and easy detection of H2O2. However, its low sensitivity makes is difficult to measure negligible concentrations of H2O2. Therefore, to overcome this limitation, we developed a horseradish peroxidase-encapsulated fluorescent bio-nanoparticle (HEFBNP), comprising bovine serum albumin-stabilized gold nanoclusters (BSA-AuNCs) and horseradish peroxidase-stabilized gold nanoclusters (HRP-AuNCs). The fabricated HEFBNP can sensitively detect H2O2 owing to its two properties. The first is that HEFBNPs have a continuous two-step fluorescence quenching mechanism, which comes from the heterogenous fluorescence quenching mechanism of HRP-AuNCs and BSA-AuNCs. Second, the proximity of two protein-AuNCs in a single HEFBNP allows a reaction intermediate (•OH) to rapidly reach the adjacent protein-AuNCs. As a result, HEFBNP can improve the overall reaction event and decrease the loss of intermediate in the solution. Due to the continuous quenching mechanism and effective reaction event, a HEFBNP-based sensing system can measure very low concentrations of H2O2 up to 0.5 nM and show good selectivity. Furthermore, we design a glass-based microfluidic device to make it easier use HEFBNP, which allowed us to detect H2O2 with the naked eye. Overall, the proposed H2O2 sensing system is expected to be an easy and highly sensitive on-site detection tool in chemistry, biology, clinics, and industry fields.

A Highly Sensitive Chemiluminometric Assay for Real-Time Detection of Biological Hydrogen Peroxide Formation.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a major reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by various cellular sources, especially mitochondria. At high levels, H2O2 causes oxidative stress, leading to cell injury, whereas at low concentrations, this ROS acts as an important second messenger to participate in cellular redox signaling. Detection and measurement of the levels or rates of production of cellular H2O2 are instrumental in studying the biological effects of this major ROS. While a number of assays have been developed over the past decades for detecting and/or quantifying biological H2O2formation, none has been shown to be perfect. Perhaps there is no perfect assay for sensitively and accurately quantifying H2O2 as well as other ROS in cells, wherein numerous potential reactants are present to interfere with the reliable measurement of the specific ROS. In this context, each assay has its own advantages and intrinsic limitations. This article describes a highly sensitive assay for real-time detection of H2O2 formation in cultured cells and isolated mitochondria. This assay is based on the luminol/horseradish peroxidase-dependent chemiluminescence that is inhibitable by catalase. The article discusses the usefulness and shortcomings of this chemiluminometric assay in detecting biological H2O2 formation induced by beta-lapachone redox cycling with both cells and isolated mitochondria.

Highly Sensitive Ratiometric Fluorescent Paper Sensors for the Detection of Fluoride Ions.

Project description:Two sensitive and ratiometric fluorescent probes (probe I and probe II) were developed for the detection of fluoride ions. Probe I can detect fluoride ions quantitatively within a range of 0-6 μM and a detection limit of 73 nM, while probe II has a range of 0-40 μM and a detection limit of 138 nM. The test strips from probe I are quickly able to recognize F- (5 min) inside of the F- safety level in drinking water (1.0 mg/L, ∼5 μM) under 254 nm ultraviolet light, and the test strips from probe II quickly recognize F- (12 min) in dangerously high F- levels in water (4.0 mg/L, ∼21 μM) under 254 nm ultraviolet light. This combination of fluorescent paper sensors from probe I and probe II can be used as a simple and convenient tool to determine whether water is safe to drink or dangerous.

Highly Sensitive and Selective Fluorescent Probes for Cu(II) Detection Based on Calix[4]arene-Oxacyclophane Architectures.

Project description:A new topological design of fluorescent probes for sensing copper ion is disclosed. The calix[4]arene-oxacyclophane (Calix-OCP) receptor, either wired-in-series in arylene-alt-ethynylene conjugated polymers or standing alone as a sole molecular probe, display a remarkable affinity and selectivity for Cu(II). The unique recognition properties of Calix-OCP system toward copper cation stem from its pre-organised cyclic array of O-ligands at the calixarene narrow rim, which is kept in a conformational rigid arrangement by a tethered oxacyclophane sub-unit. The magnitude of the binding constants (Ka = 5.30 - 8.52 × 104 M-1) and the free energy changes for the inclusion complexation (-?G = 27.0 - 28.1 kJmol-1), retrieved from fluorimetric titration experiments, revealed a high sensitivity of Calix-OCP architectures for Cu(II) species. Formation of supramolecular inclusion complexes was evidenced from UV-Vis spectroscopy. The new Calix-OCP-conjugated polymers (polymers 4 and 5), synthesized in good yields by Sonogashira-Hagihara methodologies, exhibit high fluorescence quantum yields (?F = 0.59 - 0.65). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to support the experimental findings. The fluorescence on-off behaviour of the sensing systems is tentatively explained by a photoinduced electron transfer mechanism.

An ESIPT-Based Ratiometric Fluorescent Probe for Highly Sensitive and Rapid Detection of Sulfite in Living Cells.

Project description:The novel ratiometric fluorescent probe HPQRB with an ESIPT effect based on Michael addition for highly sensitive and fast detection of sulfite in living HepG2 cells is reported. HPQRB can be easily synthesized by a two-step condensation reaction. HPQRB has a large emission shift (??=116?nm), which is beneficial for fluorescence imaging research, and its sulfite-responsive site is based on a rhodamine-like structure with the emission peak at 566?nm, which decreases with increasing sulfite concentration. and its HPQ structure always has an ESIPT effect throughout the reaction process, keeping the emission peak at 450?nm as a self-reference. In particular, HPQRB has high selectivity for sulfite and responds quickly (within 30?s) with a low detection limit (44?nM). Furthermore, HPQRB has been successfully used for fluorescence imaging of sulfite in HepG2 cells, demonstrating the superior ability to detect sulfite under physiological conditions.

Highly Sensitive Detection of Melamine Based on the Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer between Conjugated Polymer Nanoparticles and Gold Nanoparticles.

Project description:Adding melamine as additives in food products will lead to many diseases and even death. However, the present techniques of melamine detection require time-consuming steps, complicated procedures and expensive analytical apparatus. The fluorescent assay method was facile and highly sensitive. In this work, a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system for melamine detection was constructed based on conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The energy transfer efficiency is up to 82.1%, and the system is highly selective and sensitive to melamine detection with a lower detection limit of 1.7 nmol/L. Moreover, the interaction mechanism was explored. The results showed that the fluorescence of CPNs were firstly quenched by AuNPs, and then restored after adding melamine because of reducing FRET between CPNs and AuNPs. Lastly, the proposed method was carried out for melamine detection in powdered infant formula with satisfactory results.
