Colorimetric Sugar Sensing Using Boronic Acid-Substituted Azobenzenes.

ABSTRACT: In association with increasing diabetes prevalence, it is desirable to develop new glucose sensing systems with low cost, ease of use, high stability and good portability. Boronic acid is one of the potential candidates for a future alternative to enzyme-based glucose sensors. Boronic acid derivatives have been widely used for the sugar recognition motif, because boronic acids bind adjacent diols to form cyclic boronate esters. In order to develop colorimetric sugar sensors, boronic acid-conjugated azobenzenes have been synthesized. There are several types of boronic acid azobenzenes, and their characteristics tend to rely on the substitute position of the boronic acid moiety. For example, o-substitution of boronic acid to the azo group gives the advantage of a significant color change upon sugar addition. Nitrogen-15 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) studies clearly show a signaling mechanism based on the formation and cleavage of the B-N dative bond between boronic acid and azo moieties in the dye. Some boronic acid-substituted azobenzenes were attached to a polymer or utilized for supramolecular chemistry to produce glucose-selective binding, in which two boronic acid moieties cooperatively bind one glucose molecule. In addition, boronic acid-substituted azobenzenes have been applied not only for glucose monitoring, but also for the sensing of glycated hemoglobin and dopamine.

Boronic acid porphyrin receptor for ginsenoside sensing.

Project description:Ginsenoside detection was pursued through the design of a porphyrin receptor containing two boronic acid units. This receptor was found to undergo different degrees of fluorescence quenching with five ginsenoside guests and an acylated derivative. The trends in the 1:1 binding constants, as well as ESI-HRMS analysis, support a binding mode in which the ginsenoside sugar units are bound to the boronic acid groups, while the steroid core and porphyrin ring participate in hydrophobic interactions.

Highly Selective Fluorescence Sensing and Imaging of ATP Using a Boronic Acid Groups-Bearing Polythiophene Derivate.

Project description:A boronic acid groups-bearing polythiophene derivate (L) was designed and synthesized for highly sensitive fluorescence detection of ATP based on a multisite-binding coupled with analyte-induced aggregation strategy. L has a polythiophene backbone as fluorophores and two functional side groups, i.e., quaternary ammonium group and boronic acid group, as multibinding sites for ATP. When various structural analogues such as ADP, AMP, and various inorganic phosphates were added into the aqueous solution of L, only ATP caused a remarkable fluorescence quenching of about 60-fold accompanied by obvious color changes of solution from yellow to purple. The detection limit is estimated to be 2 nM based on 3σ/slope. With the advantage of good water solubility, low toxicity, and highly selective response to ATP, L was successfully utilized as a probe to real-time assay activity of adenylate kinase (ADK) and map fluorescent imaging of ATP in living cells.

Anomeric sugar boronic acid analogues as potential agents for boron neutron capture therapy.

Project description:After the development of accelerators as neutron source, the access to new suitable agents for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) became a major need. Among many others, sugar boronic acids have recently attracted attention as boron carriers. Herein we report the synthesis and preliminary biological studies of two new sugar analogues containing a boronic acid at the anomeric position. The analogues were obtained by hydroboration of proper open-chain terminal alkenes that, after quenching with water, spontaneously afforded cyclic boronic acids with hemiacetal-like structures.

Colorimetric bacteria sensing using a supramolecular enzyme-nanoparticle biosensor.

Project description:Rapid and sensitive detection of pathogens is a key requirement for both environmental and clinical settings. We report here a colorimetric enzyme-nanoparticle conjugate system for detection of microbial contamination. In this approach, cationic gold nanoparticles (NPs) featuring quaternary amine headgroups are electrostatically bound to an enzyme [β-galactosidase (β-Gal)], inhibiting enzyme activity. Analyte bacteria bind to the NP, which releases the β-Gal and restores its activity, providing an enzyme-amplified colorimetric readout of the binding event. Using this strategy, we have been able to quantify bacteria at concentrations of 1 × 10(2) bacteria/mL in solution and 1 × 10(4) bacteria/mL in a field-friendly test strip format.

Ratiometric Sensing of Hydrogen Peroxide Utilizing Conformational Change in Fluorescent Boronic Acid Polymers.

Project description:We demonstrate that the copolymers containing boronic acid and pyrene units can be utilized for the fluorometric sensing of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in aqueous solutions. The copolymer exists in a relatively extended conformation in the absence of H2O2, whereas the polymer chain is contracted by the reaction of boronic acid moieties with H2O2 to form phenol groups. This conformational change induces aggregation of the originally isolated pyrene groups. As a result, relative intensity of excimer emission with respect to monomer emission increases with H2O2 concentration. Accordingly, the present methodology enables us to measure H2O2 by means of ratiometric fluorescence change in the range of 0-30??M.

Colorimetric bacteria sensing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa using gold nanoparticle probes.

Project description:BackgroundDue to the advantages of molecular methods over biochemical methods, the use of molecular methods for diagnosing nosocomial infections such as Pseudomonas can be an appropriate and rapid way to choose the right diagnosis and treatment of infection and prevent further complications caused by the infection. The present article provides a description of the development of a nanoparticle-based detection technique for sensitive and specific deoxyribonucleic acid-based diagnostic of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Specific thiolated oligonucleotide probes for one of the hypervariable regions of the 16S rDNA gene were designed and applied for colorimetric detection of the bacteria.ResultsThe results of gold nanoprobe-nucleic sequence amplification indicated the probe attached to gold nanoparticles in the presence of the target deoxyribonucleic acid. It caused aggregation of gold nanoparticles in the form of connected networks resulting in color change and indicating the presence of the target molecule in the sample, which could be observed by the naked eye. In addition, the wavelength of gold nanoparticles changed from 524 to 558 nm. Multiplex polymerase chain reactions were performed using four specific genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (oprL, oprI, toxA, and 16S rDNA). The sensitivity and specificity of the two techniques were assessed. According to the observations, the specificity of both techniques was 100%, and the sensitivity was 0.5 ng/μL and 0.01 ng/μL of genomic deoxyribonucleic acid for multiplex polymerase chain reaction and colorimetric assay, respectively.ConclusionsThe sensitivity of colorimetric detection was about 50 times higher than the polymerase chain reaction using the 16SrDNA gene. The results of our study proved to be highly specific with potential use for early detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Dual colorimetric sensing of ascorbic acid and thyroxine using Ag-EGCG-CTAB <i>via</i> a DFT approach.

Project description:In this work, a colorimetric approach for the detection of ascorbic acid (AA) and thyroxine (TH) was developed by synthesizing cost-effective silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) decorated with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and CTAB. EGCG is the major bioactive chemical constituent that played a significant role in this study. The environment around the nanoparticle (NP) was controlled by adding CTAB surfactants. The synthesized NPs were characterized by different advanced techniques including XRD, XPS, SEM, and TEM. UV-visible spectra were thoroughly analyzed for sensing of AA and TH and the colour change of the solution can be visually monitored. The change in the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties was used as an asset for the detection of AA and TH. A good linear relationship was obtained in both the sensing schemes with a limit of detection (LoD) of 0.67 μM and 0.33 μM for AA and TH respectively. Furthermore, the nanoparticles (NP) were implemented for real-sample analysis (pharmaceutical tablets). A cost-effective filter paper strip-based method coupled with smartphone scanning sensing was developed for the detection of AA. The interaction of AA and TH with the probe was depicted by a density functional theory (DFT) analysis. The synthesized NPs show tremendous selectivity towards AA and TH and excellent potential for practical applications.

Novel Carboxylic Acid-Capped Silver Nanoparticles as Antimicrobial and Colorimetric Sensing Agents.

Project description:The present work reports the synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial activities of adipic acid-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@AA) and their utilization for selective detection of Hg2+ ions in an aqueous solution. The AgNPs were synthesized by the reduction of Ag+ ions with NaBH4 followed by capping with adipic acid. Characterization of as-synthesized AgNPs@AA was carried out by different techniques, including UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), and zeta potential (ZP). In the UV-Vis absorption spectrum, the characteristic absorption band for AgNPs was observed at 404 nm. The hydrodynamic size of as-synthesized AgNPs was found to be 30 ± 5.0 nm. ZP values (-35.5 ± 2.4 mV) showed that NPs possessed a negative charge due to carboxylate ions and were electrostatically stabilized. The AgNPs show potential antimicrobial activity against clinically isolated pathogens. These AgNPs were found to be selectively interacting with Hg2+ in an aqueous solution at various concentrations. A calibration curve was constructed by plotting concentration as abscissa and absorbance ratio (AControl - AHg/AControl) as ordinate. The linear range and limit of detection (LOD) of Hg2+ were 0.6-1.6 μM and 0.12 μM, respectively. A rapid response time of 4 min was found for the detection of Hg2+ by the nano-probe. The effect of pH and temperature on the detection of Hg2+ was also investigated. The nano-probe was successfully applied for the detection of Hg2+ from tap and river water.

Selective Sugar Recognition by Anthracene-Type Boronic Acid Fluorophore/Cyclodextrin Supramolecular Complex Under Physiological pH Condition.

Project description:We synthesized novel PET (photoinduced electron transfer)-type fluorescence glucose probe 1 [(4-(anthracen-2-yl-carbamoyl)-3-fluorophenyl)boronic acid], which has a phenylboronic acid (PBA) moiety as the recognition site and anthracene as the fluorescent part. Although the PBA derivatives dissociate and bind with sugar in the basic condition, our new fluorescent probe can recognize sugars in the physiological pH by introducing an electron-withdrawing fluorine group into the PBA moiety. As a result, the pK a value of this fluorescent probe was lowered and the probe was able to recognize sugars at the physiological pH of 7.4. The sensor was found to produce two types of fluorescent signals, monomer fluorescence and dimer fluorescence, by forming a supramolecular 2:1 complex of 1 with glucose inside a ?-cyclodextrin (?-CyD) cavity. Selective ratiometric sensing of glucose by the 1/?-CyD complex was achieved in water at physiological pH.
