Highly emissive PEG-encapsulated conjugated polymer nanoparticles.
A novel bioimaging probe based on a conjugated polymer, poly(9,9-dihexylfluorene-alt-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole) (PFBD), is demonstrated. Transfer of the hydrophobic polymer into water using a short chain poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) resulted in conjugated polymer nanoparticles (PEG-PFBD) with a fluorescence quantum yield of 46%. The PEG-PFBD nanoparticles possessed several desirable structural and ph...
متن کاملHighly emissive 'frozen-in' conjugated polymer nanofibers.
Conjugated-polymer nanofibers with a thermodynamically stable, coarsened, disordered structure in an amorphous glassy state were fabricated via a freeze-drying method using a poly(diphenylacetylene) derivative. The nanofibers were extremely emissive, with a fluorescence (FL) quantum yield of approximately 0.34, which was much higher than that of both the cast film (0.02) and the solution (0.21)...
متن کاملFluorescent-conjugated polymer superquenching facilitates highly sensitive detection of proteases.
Sensor formats have been developed for detecting the activity of proteolytic enzymes based on fluorescent conjugated polymer superquenching. These sensors employ a reactive peptide sequence within a tether linking a quencher to a biotin. The peptide binds to sensors containing colocated biotin-binding protein and fluorescent polymer by means of biotin-biotin binding protein interactions, result...
متن کاملHighly monodisperse conjugated polymer particles synthesized with drop-based microfluidics.
A facile method for preparing highly monodisperse, sub-micrometre conjugated polymer particles is reported. The particles are prepared through emulsification of a conjugated polymer solution on a microfluidic chip followed by solvent evaporation. The particle size is tuned between 150 nm to 2 μm, by controlling the polymer concentration.
متن کاملPolymer Microbead-Templated Nanostructures
In this chapter, nanostructures templated by polymer microbead, which is usually made of polystyrene with a diameter range of 300 nm–1 μm, are reviewed. We first focus on formation of the microbead monolayer in terms of the driving force for self-assembly, the junction among the neighbouring microbeads and the uniformity of microbead monolayer. Then, we discuss applications of microbead monolay...
