Biosensors from conjugated polyelectrolyte complexes.
A charge neutral complex (CNC) was formed in aqueous solution by combining an orange light emitting anionic conjugated polyelectrolyte and a saturated cationic polyelectrolyte at a 1:1 ratio (per repeat unit). Photoluminescence (PL) from the CNC can be quenched by both the negatively charged dinitrophenol (DNP) derivative, (DNP-BS(-)), and positively charged methyl viologen (MV(2+)). Use of the...
متن کاملPolyelectrolyte–protein complexes
The field of polyelectrolye–protein complexes is now benefiting from the convergence of three themes whose disciplinary distinctions formerly produced fragmentation. Theory and simulations, previously restricted to isotropic models of colloids and polyelectrolytes, are now taking into account the heterogeneity of charges in both macroions and providing far more realistic depictions of proteins....
متن کاملElectronic properties of conjugated polyelectrolyte thin films.
The electronic properties of conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) with poly(fluorene-co-phenylene) backbones and different counterions and charges have been investigated using absorption and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). The optical energy band gap of CPEs depends mainly on their conjugated backbone and are nearly insensitive to the charges or counterions. UPS measurements reveal ...
متن کاملSalt-induced thermochromism of a conjugated polyelectrolyte.
We report here the photophysical properties of a water-soluble conjugated polythiophene with cationic side-chains. When dissolved in aqueous buffer solution (PBS, phosphate buffered saline), there is ordering of the polymer chains due to the presence of the salts, in contrast to pure water, where a random-coil conformation is adopted at room temperature. The ordering leads to a pronounced colou...
متن کاملStepwise disproportionation in polyelectrolyte complexes
Structural properties and the topology of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) formed in solution have been investigated under different conditions by Monte Carlo simulations using a coarse-grained model. The extension of individual polyions has been characterized by their radius of gyration, whereas the composition of the complexes has been investigated by their net charge and their internal topol...
