Fluorescence quenching based detection of nitroaromatics using luminescent triphenylamine carboxylic acids.

ABSTRACT: Detection of nitroaromatics employing greener techniques has been one of the most active research fields in chemistry. A series of triphenylamine (TPA) functionalized carboxylic acids were synthesized and characterized using various spectroscopic techniques including single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The interaction of carboxylic acid-decorated TPAs with nitroaromatic compounds was photophysically explored using absorption and emission spectroscopy. Stern-Volmer plot accounts for the appreciable quenching constant of the TPA-acids. Density functional theory calculations were carried out to study the new compounds' frontier molecular orbital energy levels and the possible interactions with picrate anion and revealed an unusual charge transfer interaction between acids and picrate anion. The contact mode detection shows the TPA-acids can be used as dip-strip sensors for picric acid detection.

Rapid Fluorescence Quenching Detection of Escherichia coli Using Natural Silica-Based Nanoparticles.

Project description:The development of fluorescent silica nanoparticles (SNP-RB) from natural amorphous silica and its performance as an Escherichia coli (E. coli) biosensor is described in this paper. SNP-RB was derived from silica recovered from geothermal installation precipitation and modified with the dye, Rhodamine B. The Fourier Infrared (FTIR) confirms the incorporation of Rhodamine B in the silica matrix. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) micrographs show that the SNP-RB had an irregular structure with a particle diameter of about 20-30 nm. The maximum fluorescence spectrum of SNP-RB was recorded at 580 nm, which was further applied to observe the detection performance of the fluorescent nanoparticles towards E. coli. The sensing principle was based on the fluorescence-quenching mechanism of SNP-RB and this provided a wide linear E. coli concentration range of 10-105 CFU/mL with a limit detection of 8 CFU/mL. A rapid response time was observed after only 15 min of incubation of SNP-RB with E. coli. The selectivity of the biosensor was demonstrated and showed that the SNP-RB only gave quenching response only to live E. coli bacteria. The use of SNP-RB as a sensing platform reduced the response time significantly compared to conventional 3-day bacterial assays, as well having excellent analytical performance in terms of sensitivity and selectivity.

Albuminuria detection using graphene oxide-mediated fluorescence quenching aptasensor.

Project description:A simple and sensitive graphene oxide-mediated fluorescence quenching aptasensor is developed to quantify albuminuria in urine samples. The developed aptasensor used the specific target binding property of aptamer and fluorescence quenching property of graphene oxide to determine the concentration of human serum albumin in urine. The limit of detection of the developed platform is 0.05 µg.mL-1 and the detection range is 0.1-600 µg.mL-1, which covers the albuminuria concentration range present in normal human urine and the urine of the patient with chronic kidney disease. This approach can be modified to measure albuminuria using a high-throughput quantification platform and portable point of care testing. In addition, the production cost for one reaction is cheaper than those for the standard automated method. Therefore, this aptasensor has significant potential for commercialization and public use.•Our protocol is customized by using the fluorescence quenching property of graphene oxide and specific binding property of human serum albumin aptamer to detect human serum albumin in urine sample•The limit of detection of our developed platform is 0.05 µg.mL-1•The detection range of our aptasensor is 0.1-600 µg.mL-1.

DNA analysis by fluorescence quenching detection.

Project description:The analysis of human genetic variations such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has great applications in genome-wide association studies of complex genetic traits. We have developed an SNP genotyping method based on the primer extension assay with fluorescence quenching as the detection. The template-directed dye-terminator incorporation with fluorescence quenching detection (FQ-TDI) assay is based on the observation that the intensity of fluorescent dye R110- and R6G-labeled acycloterminators is universally quenched once they are incorporated onto a DNA oligonucleotide primer. By comparing the rate of fluorescence quenching of the two allelic dyes in real time, we have extended this method for allele frequency estimation of SNPs in pooled DNA samples. The kinetic FQ-TDI assay is highly accurate and reproducible both in genotyping and in allele frequency estimation. Allele frequencies estimated by the kinetic FQ-TDI assay correlated well with known allele frequencies, with an r(2) value of 0.993. Applying this strategy to large-scale studies will greatly reduce the time and cost for genotyping hundreds and thousands of SNP markers between affected and control populations.

Detection of ochratoxin A using a "turn-on" fluorescence assay based on guanine quenching of the aptamer.

Project description:Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a common mycotoxin with high carcinogenicity; therefore, it is crucial to establish a simple, rapid, and sensitive method for its detection. In this study, we developed a "turn-on" fluorescence assay for detecting OTA based on guanine quenching of the aptamer. The method uses fluorescein (FAM) fluorophore to label the complementary strand of the OTA aptamer, Fc-DNA. In the absence of OTA, the Fc-DNA hybridizes with the aptamer to form a double strand. Due to the occurrence of photo-induced electron transfer (PET), the FAM fluorescence signal is quenched as the FAM on the Fc-DNA approaches the guanine of the aptamer at the 5' end. When OTA is present, the aptamer binds to it and thus, is unable to hybridize with Fc-DNA to form a double strand; the FAM fluorescence signal is restored as FAM moves away from the guanine of the aptamer. The assay achieved OTA detection at a detection limit of 28.4 nM. The application of the original guanine of the aptamer as the quenching agent helps avoid the complex designing and labeling of the aptamer, which ensures the high affinity of the aptamer for OTA. Meanwhile, this "turn-on" detection mode helps avoid potential false-positive results as in the "turn-off" mode and improves the assay's sensitivity. Additionally, the method has good selectivity and can be used to detect OTA in traditional Chinese medicine. This method provides a simple, low-cost, and rapid method for OTA detection.

Ultrasensitive fluorescence immunoassay for detection of ochratoxin A using catalase-mediated fluorescence quenching of CdTe QDs.

Project description:Herein, for the first time we report an improved competitive fluorescent enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the ultrasensitive detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) by using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced fluorescence quenching of mercaptopropionic acid-modified CdTe quantum dots (QDs). In this immunoassay, catalase (CAT) was labeled with OTA as a competitive antigen to connect the fluorescence signals of the QDs with the concentration of the target. Through the combinatorial use of H2O2-induced fluorescence quenching of CdTe QDs as a fluorescence signal output and the ultrahigh catalytic activity of CAT to H2O2, our proposed method could be used to perform a dynamic linear detection of OTA ranging from 0.05 pg mL(-1) to 10 pg mL(-1). The half maximal inhibitory concentration was 0.53 pg mL(-1) and the limit of detection was 0.05 pg mL(-1). These values were approximately 283- and 300-folds lower than those of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-based conventional ELISA, respectively. The reported method is accurate, highly reproducible, and specific against other mycotoxins in agricultural products as well. In summary, the developed fluorescence immunoassay based on H2O2-induced fluorescence quenching of CdTe QDs can be used for the rapid and highly sensitive detection of mycotoxins or haptens in food safety monitoring.

Luminescent probes for ultrasensitive detection of nucleic acids.

Project description:Novel amino-reactive derivatives of lanthanide-based luminescent labels of enhanced brightness and metal retention were synthesized and used for the detection of cDNA oligonucleotides by molecular beacons. Time-resolved acquisition of the luminescent signal that occurs upon hybridization of the probe to the target enabled the avoidance of short-lived background fluorescence, markedly enhancing the sensitivity of detection, which was less than 1 pM. This value is about 50 to 100 times more sensitive than the level achieved with conventional fluorescence-based molecular beacons, and is 10 to 60 times more sensitive than previously reported for other lanthanide-based hybridization probes. These novel luminescent labels should significantly enhance the sensitivity of all type of nucleic acid hybridization probes, and could dramatically improve the detection limit of other biopolymers and small compounds that are used in a variety of biological applications.

Thumb Imprint Based Detection of Hyperbilirubinemia Using Luminescent Gold Nanoclusters.

Project description:Early and easy detection of diseases, using point-of-care and inexpensive devices, not only provides option for early treatment but also reduces the risk of propagation. Herein we report the fabrication of a robust film based luminescence indicator of bilirubin, which can indicate hyperbilirubinemia through the thumb imprint of the patient. The UV-light induced luminescence intensity of the film, made out of chitosan stabilised gold (Au) nanoclusters, which was effectively quenched in the presence of Cu2+ ions, recovered in the presence of bilirubin from skin or blood serum. Moreover, the sensitivity of detection of bilirubin was tuneable with the amount of Cu2+ added, thereby facilitating the detection of the desired concentration range of bilirubin.

Advance Progress on Luminescent Sensing of Nitroaromatics by Crystalline Lanthanide-Organic Complexes.

Project description:Water environment pollution is becoming an increasingly serious issue due to industrial pollutants with the rapid development of modern industry. Among many pollutants, the toxic and explosive nitroaromatics are used extensively in the chemical industry, resulting in environmental pollution of soil and groundwater. Therefore, the detection of nitroaromatics is of great significance to environmental monitoring, citizen life and homeland security. Lanthanide-organic complexes with controllable structural features and excellent optical performance have been rationally designed and successfully prepared and used as lanthanide-based sensors for the detection of nitroaromatics. This review will focus on crystalline luminescent lanthanide-organic sensing materials with different dimensional structures, including the 0D discrete structure, 1D and 2D coordination polymers and the 3D framework. Large numbers of studies have shown that several nitroaromatics could be detected by crystalline lanthanide-organic-complex-based sensors, for instance, nitrobenzene (NB), nitrophenol (4-NP or 2-NP), trinitrophenol (TNP) and so on. The various fluorescence detection mechanisms were summarized and sorted out in the review, which might help researchers or readers to comprehensively understand the mechanism of the fluorescence detection of nitroaromatics and provide a theoretical basis for the rational design of new crystalline lanthanide-organic complex-based sensors.

Mapping Hfq-RNA interaction surfaces using tryptophan fluorescence quenching.

Project description:Hfq is a posttranscriptional riboregulator and RNA chaperone that binds small RNAs and target mRNAs to effect their annealing and message-specific regulation in response to environmental stressors. Structures of Hfq-RNA complexes indicate that U-rich sequences prefer the proximal face and A-rich sequences the distal face; however, the Hfq-binding sites of most RNAs are unknown. Here, we present an Hfq-RNA mapping approach that uses single tryptophan-substituted Hfq proteins, all of which retain the wild-type Hfq structure, and tryptophan fluorescence quenching (TFQ) by proximal RNA binding. TFQ properly identified the respective distal and proximal binding of A15 and U6 RNA to Gram-negative Escherichia coli (Ec) Hfq and the distal face binding of (AA)3A, (AU)3A and (AC)3A to Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (Sa) Hfq. The inability of (GU)3G to bind the distal face of Sa Hfq reveals the (R-L)n binding motif is a more restrictive (A-L)n binding motif. Remarkably Hfq from Gram-positive Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) binds (GU)3G on its proximal face. TFQ experiments also revealed the Ec Hfq (A-R-N)n distal face-binding motif should be redefined as an (A-A-N)n binding motif. TFQ data also demonstrated that the 5'-untranslated region of hfq mRNA binds both the proximal and distal faces of Ec Hfq and the unstructured C-terminus.

Reversible Oxygen Sensing Based on Multi-Emission Fluorescence Quenching.

Project description:Oxygen is ubiquitous in nature and it plays a key role in several biological processes, such as cellular respiration and food deterioration, to name a few. Currently, reversible and non-destructive oxygen sensing is usually performed with sensors produced by photosensitization of phosphorescent organometallic complexes. In contrast, we propose a novel route of optical oxygen sensing by fluorescence-based quenching of oxygen. We hereby developed for the first time a set of multi-emissive purely organic emitters. These were produced through a one-pot hydrothermal synthesis using p-phenylenediamine (PPD) and urea as starting materials. The origin of the multi-emission has been ascribed to the diversity of chemical structures produced as a result of oxidative oligomerization of PPD. A Bandrowski's base (BB, i.e., trimer of PPD) is reported as the main component at reaction times higher than 8 h. This indication was confirmed by electrospray-ionization quadrupole time-of-flight (ESI-QTOF) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis. Once the emitters are embedded within a high molecular weight poly (vinyl alcohol) matrix, the intensities of all three emission centers exhibit a non-linear quenching provoked by oxygen within the range of 0-8 kPa. The detection limit of the emission centers are 0.89 kPa, 0.67 kPa and 0.75 kPa, respectively. This oxygen-dependent change in fluorescence emission is reversible (up to three tested 0-21% O2 cycles) and reproducible with negligible cross-interference to humidity. The cost-effectiveness, metal-free formulation, cross-referencing between each single emission center and the relevant oxygen range are all appealing features, making these sensors promising for the detection of oxygen, e.g., in food packaged products.
