Caging Metal Ions with Visible Light-Responsive Nanopolymersomes
Polymersomes are bilayer vesicles that self-assemble from amphiphilic diblock copolymers, and provide an attractive system for the delivery of biological and nonbiological molecules due to their environmental compatibility, mechanical stability, synthetic tunability, large aqueous core, and hyperthick hydrophobic membrane. Herein, we report a nanoscale photoresponsive polymersome system featuri...
متن کاملVisible-light-driven superhydrophilicity by interfacial charge transfer between metal ions and metal oxide nanostructures.
Single-crystalline rutile nanorods were synthesized by a facile acid treatment on titanate nanotubes. These rutile nanorods could be highly dispersed in water to form a stable colloidal solution. Cu(2+) ions were grafted onto these rutile nanorods, and the Cu(2+)-grafted nanorods could absorb visible light by the interfacial charge transfer between the valence band of rutile TiO(2) and surface-...
متن کاملPhotorelease of GABA with Visible Light Using an Inorganic Caging Group
We describe the selective photorelease of gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) with a novel caged-GABA compound that uses a ruthenium complex as photosensor. This compound ("RuBi-GABA") can be excited with visible wavelengths, providing greater tissue penetration, less photo-toxicity, and faster photorelease kinetics than currently used UV light-sensitive caged compounds. Using pyramidal neurons fro...
متن کاملVisible light-responsive micelles formed from dialkoxyanthracene-containing block copolymers.
A class of dialkoxyanthracene-containing diblock copolymers is synthesized which possesses visible light-responsivity. These copolymers can self-assemble into a micellar structure in water. Green visible light (540 nm) is able to scissor these anthracene species and cleave the diblock copolymer into two fragments, inducing disassembly of the self-assembled micelles.
متن کاملA visible light-responsive iodine-doped titanium dioxide nanosphere.
I-doped titanium dioxide nanospheres (I-TNSs) were synthesized via a two-step hydrothermal synthesis route, their potential for the efficient utilization of visible light was evaluated. The prepared anatase-phase I-TNSs had a bimodal porous size distribution with a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area of 76 m2/g, a crystallite size of approximately 14 nm calculated from X-ray diffraction data, a...
