Synthesis of Silica Nanoparticles with Physical Encapsulation of Near-Infrared Fluorescent Dyes and Their Tannic Acid Coating.

ABSTRACT: This study reports a novel method for the synthesis of silica nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulating near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dyes through physical adsorption. Although a NIR cationic fluorescent dye, oxazine 725 (OXA), has no chemical bonding moiety toward silica NPs such as the triethoxysilyl group, the dyes were successfully incorporated into silica NPs without denaturation under the mild reaction conditions. Next, tannic acid (TA) molecules were coated in the presence of Fe³⁺ on the particle surface for the functionalization of silica NPs encapsulating OXA (OXA@SiO₂ NPs). The TA coating on the surface of OXA@SiO₂ NPs was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The TA coating significantly contributed to the resistance improvement against photobleaching and leakage of the dyes in the NPs. Furthermore, the obtained TA-coated silica NPs encapsulating OXAs (OXA@SiO₂@TA NPs) were used for the fluorescence imaging of African green monkey kidney (COS-7) cells, and it was shown that the fluorescence originated from OXA@SiO₂@TA NPs was clearly observed in the COS-7 cells.

The Development of Novel Near-Infrared (NIR) Tetraarylazadipyrromethene Fluorescent Dyes.

Project description:Novel structures of an near-infrared (NIR) tetraarylazadipyrromethene (aza-BODIPY) series have been prepared. We designed the core structure containing two amido groups at the para-position of the aromatic rings. The amido group was incorporated to secure insensitivity to pH and to ensure a bathochromic shift to the NIR region. Forty members of aza-BODIPY compounds were synthesized by substitution of the acetyl group with commercial amines on the alpha bromide. The physicochemical properties and photostability were investigated and the fluorescence emission maxima (745~755 nm) were found to be in the near infrared (NIR) range of fluorescence.

Near infrared excitation and emission in rare earth MOFs via encapsulation of organic dyes.

Project description:We successfully demonstrate that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be designed to be excited and emit within the biological diagnostic window (650-1450 nm). An isoreticular series of anionic rare earth MOFs with fcu topology was synthesized using 10 different rare earth elements (Y3+, Eu3+, Gd3+, Tb3+, Dy3+, Ho3+, Er3+, Tm3+, Yb3+, Lu3+) and common linear ditopic ligands. Five different cationic dye molecules were incorporated into the MOFs via ion exchange. When LDS 750, which exhibits low-energy absorption in the range 450-770 nm, is loaded into an Yb3+-MOF, it can be used as an antenna to sensitize the near-infrared (NIR) emission of Yb3+ centred at 980 nm.

Synthesis and spectroscopy of near infrared fluorescent dyes for investigating dichromic fluorescence.

Project description:We developed a series of near infrared (NIR) cyanine dyes to study dichromic fluorescence phenomenon, which provides new protocols for in vivo optical imaging. Preliminary spectroscopic studies show that dichromic fluorescence correlates with structural symmetry. This feature suggests the potential use of dichromic fluorescent molecules to study biological processes that can alter the structural symmetry of the molecular probes.

Assembling Near-Infrared Dye on the Surface of Near-Infrared Silica-Coated Copper Sulphide Plasmonic Nanoparticles.

Project description:Functionalization of colloidal nanoparticles with organic dyes, which absorb photons in complementary spectral ranges, brings a synergistic effect for harvesting additional light energy. Here, we show functionalization of near-infrared (NIR) plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) of bare and amino-group functionalized mesoporous silica-coated copper sulphide (Cu2-xS@MSS and Cu2-xS@MSS-NH2) with specific tricarbocyanine NIR dye possessing sulfonate end groups. The role of specific surface chemistry in dye assembling on the surface of NPs is demonstrated, depending on the organic polar liquids or water used as a dispersant solvent. It is shown that dye binding to the NP surfaces occurs with different efficiency, but mostly in the monomer form in polar organic solvents. Conversely, the aqueous medium leads to different scenarios according to the NP surface chemistry. Predominant formation of the disordered dye monomers occurs on the bare surface of mesoporous silica shell (MSS), whereas the amino-group functionalized MSS accepts dye predominantly in the form of dimers. It is found that the dye-NP interaction overcomes the dye-dye interaction, leading to disruption of dye J-aggregates in the presence of the NPs. The different organization of the dye molecules on the surface of silica-coated copper sulphide NPs provides tuning of their specific functional properties, such as hot-band absorption and photoluminescence.

Interface-Induced Near-Infrared Response of Gold-Silica Hybrid Nanoparticles Antennas.

Project description:We proposed an IR absorber hybrid nanoantenna comprise of two overlapping gold nanoparticles residing over larger a silica nanoparticle. A wet chemical route was employed to prepare the hybrid structure of nanoantenna. High-resolution transmission electron microscope was used to measure the size and morphology of the nanoantenna. The Hybrid nanoantenna was excited by electron beam to investigate the optical response over a large wavelength range using Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy. The beam of the electron was focused and we measured the electron energy loss spectra at different point of interest, which confirmed the of Low Energy Surface Plasmon Politron resonances in the IR region. The optical response of the nanoantenna was simulated numerically by employing Electric Hertzian dipole using finite element method with frequency domain solver in CST Microwave Studio. We used the Electric Hertzian dipole approach for the first time to model the Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy experiment. The Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy experimental results with their numerically simulated values confirmed the plasmonic resonance at the interface of the two overlapped gold nanoparticles.

Dye Encapsulation in Fluorescent Core-Shell Silica Nanoparticles as Probed by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy.

Project description:Synthetic advances in the formation of ultrasmall (<10 nm) fluorescent poly(ethylene glycol)-coated (PEGylated) core-shell silica nanoparticles (SNPs), enabling improved particle size and surface chemical property control have led to successful clinical translation of SNPs as diagnostic probes in oncology. Despite the success of such probes, details of the dye incorporation and resulting silica architecture are still poorly understood. Here, we employ afterpulse-corrected fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) to monitor fast fluorescence fluctuations (lag times <10-5 s) of the negatively charged cyanine dye Cy5 as a probe to study such details for dye encapsulation in 5 nm silica cores of PEGylated core-shell SNPs (C dots). Upon deposition of additional silica shells over the silica core we find that the amplitude of photo-induced cis-trans isomerization decreases, suggesting that the Cy5 dyes are located near or on the surface of the original SNP cores. In combination with time correlated fluorescence decay measurements we deduce radiative and non-radiative rates of the Cy5 dye in these particles. Results demonstrate that FCS is a well-suited tool to investigate aspects of the photophysics of fluorescent nanoparticles, and that conformational changes of cyanine dyes like Cy5 are excellent indicators for the local dye environment within ultrasmall SNPs.

Near infrared fluorescent peptide nanoparticles for enhancing esophageal cancer therapeutic efficacy.

Project description:Various types of nanoparticles have been proposed for targeted drug delivering, imaging, and tracking of therapeutic agents. However, highly biocompatible nanoparticles with structure-induced fluorescence and capability to conjugate with biomarkers and drugs remain lacking. This research proposes and synthesizes fluorescent nanoparticles (f-PNPs) assembled by cyclic peptides to combine imaging and drug delivering for esophageal cancer (EC). To achieve tumor targeting, f-PNPs are first conjugated with RGD moieties to selectively target EC cells via αvβ3 integrin; the nanoparticles are then embedded with epirubicin (EPI). Cell viability assays and analysis of tissue histology reveal that EPI-loaded RGD-f-PNPs (RGD-f-PNPs/EPI) led to significantly reduced cardiotoxicity and improved anti-tumor activity compared to EPI alone. Moreover, the drug delivery to tumor sites and therapeutic responses could be monitored with near-infrared fluorescence using RGD-f-PNPs/EPI. This unique nanoparticle system may lead to potential approaches for bioorganic fluorescence-based delivering, imaging, and drug release tracking.

Highly photostable near-infrared fluorescent pH indicators and sensors based on BF2-chelated tetraarylazadipyrromethene dyes.

Project description:In this study, a series of new BF(2)-chelated tetraarylazadipyrromethane dyes are synthesized and are shown to be suitable for the preparation of on/off photoinduced electron transfer modulated fluorescent sensors. The new indicators are noncovalently entrapped in polyurethane hydrogel D4 and feature absorption maxima in the range 660-710 nm and fluorescence emission maxima at 680-740 nm. Indicators have high molar absorption coefficients of ~80,000 M(-1) cm(-1), good quantum yields (up to 20%), excellent photostability and low cross-sensitivity to the ionic strength. pK(a) values of indicators are determined from absorbance and fluorescence measurements and range from 7 to 11, depending on the substitution pattern of electron-donating and -withdrawing functionalities. Therefore, the new indicators are suitable for exploitation and adaptation in a diverse range of analytical applications. Apparent pK(a) values in sensor films derived from fluorescence data show 0.5-1 pH units lower values in comparison with those derived from the absorption data due to Förster resonance energy transfer from protonated to deprotonated form. A dual-lifetime referenced sensor is prepared, and application for monitoring of pH in corals is demonstrated.
