Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), one of the important hydrolases, is associated with the progress of many diseases as a well-defined biomarker. Fluorescence imaging of ALP in living organisms is of great importance for biological studies. However, in vivo detection of ALP remains a great challenge because current fluorescent probes show short excitation and emission wavelength, which are not desired for...
The monitoring of K+ is very important and emergency because of their unique relationship in various disease diagnosis and treatment. G-quadruplex analogue is a classical recognition unit for K+ detection and has been widely applied in K+ relevant research. Common fluorescent dyes were employed for design of G-quadruplex structure-based K+ probes which suffered from the aggregation-caused quenching...
In this work we use a water-soluble cationic perylene derivative (compound 1) as the G-quadruplex (G4) structure fluorescence indicator to construct a fluorescent biosensor for simple, rapid and label-free detection of Pb2+. In the absence of Pb2+, strong electrostatic interactions between compound 1 and the G-rich DNA probe (PW17) induced the aggregation of compound 1 and resulted in the fluorescence...
DNAzyme-based catalytic beacons have been widely studied for both in vivo and in vitro molecular detection. However, only a few label-free catalytic beacons with excellent analytical performance have been reported so far. In this work, by combining a catalytic DNAzyme for amplified sensing through enzymatic turnover with cleavage-induced G-quadruplex formation, a label-free DNAzyme biosensor was developed...
Intracellular pH plays a pivotal role in various biological processes. In eukaryotic cells, lysosomes contain numerous enzymes and proteins exhibiting a variety of activities and functions at acidic pH (4.5–5.5), and abnormal variation in the lysosomal pH causes defects in lysosomal function. Thus, it is important to investigate lysosomal pH in living cells to understand its physiological and pathological...
Development of fluorescent probes for Hg 2+ has become a hot topic in modern chemical research due to its high toxicity. In this paper, we for the first time report the synthesis and application of a thioether spirocyclic rhodamine B derivative (TR) as an efficient fluorescent probe for Hg 2+ . TR was synthesized using a simple procedure under mild condition. By employing a thioether...
A new and facile strategy using double-stranded DNA-copper nanoparticles (dsDNA-Cu NPs) as fluorescence reporters for the highly sensitive and selective detection of l-histidine was demonstrated. In the dsDNA-Cu NPs-based sensing system, the fluorescence was quenched considerably upon the addition of l-histidine. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the probe exhibits excellent performance...
A sensitive immunosensor using colloidal gold as electrochemical label is described. In this method, the capture protein was first immobilized on a carbon paste electrode surface through passive adsorption to bind quantitatively with corresponding antigen and colloidal gold labeled antibody to perform a sandwich assay. To detect the amount of the colloidal gold captured on the electrode surface, the...
The design and synthesis of a porphyrin-appended terpyridine, 5-(4-([2,2′:6′,2″]-terpyridin-4-yl-carboxyamidyl)phenyl)-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin (H 2 TPPTPy) and its application as potential fluoroionophore for recognition of metal ions are reported. For preparation of the fluoroionophore, a novel simple strategy with improved total yield has been applied for the synthesis of 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine-4′-carboxylic...
An electrochemical immunoassay technique has been developed based on the sensitive detection of the enzyme-generated product with a bi-electrode signal transduction system. The system uses two separate electrodes, an immunoelectrode and a detection electrode to form a galvanic cell to implement the redox reactions on two different electrodes, that is the enzyme-generated reductant in the anode region...
In this paper, 2-(2′-hydroxy-phenyl)-4(3H)-quinazolinone (HPQ), a typical compound that exhibits excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction and possesses good photophysical properties, is synthesized and used as fluoroionophore for Fe 3+ sensitive optochemical sensor. The decrease of fluorescence intensity of HPQ membrane upon the addition of Fe 3+ was attributed...
A fluorescent chemical sensor for Hg(II) using 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (H 3 (tpfc)) as fluorophore is described in this paper. The response of the sensor is based on the fluorescence quenching of H 3 (tpfc) by coordination with Hg(II). H 3 (tpfc) based sensor shows a linear response towards Hg(II) in the concentration range from 1.2×10 −7 to 1.0×10 ...
