pH-Responsive quantum dots (RQDs) that combine a fluorescent nanoparticle with a pH-sensitive dye.
A quantum dot conjugated to a dye through an experimentally simple process of self-assembly exhibits an enhanced emission when the dye is attached, and this effect is pH-sensitive.
متن کاملHigh-throughput phagocytosis assay utilizing a pH-sensitive fluorescent dye.
We describe a development of a novel high-throughput phagocytosis assay based on a pH-sensitive cyanine dye, CypHer5E, which is maximally fluorescent in an acidic environment. This dye is ideally suited for the study of phagocytosis because of the acidic conditions generated in the intracellular phagocytic vesicles after particle uptake. Use of CypHer5E-labeled particles results in greatly redu...
متن کاملFluorescent graphene quantum dots as traceable, pH-sensitive drug delivery systems.
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) were rationally fabricated as a traceable drug delivery system for the targeted, pH-sensitive delivery of a chemotherapeutic drug into cancer cells. The GQDs served as fluorescent carriers for a well-known anticancer drug, doxorubicin (Dox). The whole system has the capacity for simultaneous tracking of the carrier and of drug release. Dox release is triggered upon ...
متن کاملA ratiometric near-infrared pH-responsive fluorescent dye based on distyryl BODIPY.
A novel distyryl boron dipyrromethene substituted with two 4-(dimethylamino)phenylethynyl groups at the 2- and 6-positions has been synthesised and characterised. It exhibits remarkable and reversible pH-responsive changes in the absorption and fluorescence emission spectra, both in organic and in aqueous media.
متن کاملA highly fluorescent pH sensing membrane for the alkaline pH range incorporating a BODIPY dye.
A robust and re-usable dipstick-type fluorescent pH sensor for the alkaline pH range was developed by embedding a brightly fluorescent boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dye bearing an acidic phenol moiety into a polyurethane matrix immobilized on a 3D epoxy-functionalized polymer support. The sensor strip has a dynamic working range of pH 10.0-13.1, i.e., operates in strongly basic media where pH g...
