Sequential self-assembly for construction of Pt(II)-bridged [3]rotaxanes on gold nanoparticles.
An effective self-assembly route for construction of Pt(II)-bridged [3]rotaxane functionalized gold nanoparticles was developed through a stepwise introduction of Pt(II) coordination and gold-thiol binding in turn. The sequential self-assembly process can be quantitatively controlled and directly monitored by the naked eye.

Non-invasive detection of caspase-3/7 activity in vivo has provided invaluable predictive information regarding tumor therapeutic efficacy and anti-tumor drug selection. Although a number of caspase-3/7 targeted fluorescence and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging probes have been developed, there is still a lack of gadolinium (Gd)-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) probes that enabl...
متن کاملEngineering Nano-aggregates: β-Cyclodextrin Facilitates the Thiol-Gold Nanoparticle Self-Assembly
The structure and morphology of nonmaterial formed by colloidal synthesis represent a subject of interest as it is a factor deciding the physicochemical properties and biological applications of nanostructures. Among various nanoparticles, gold can develop fractal assembled patterns. Herein, we report a nano-aggregate of a thiol-on-gold self-assembled structure and the influence of β-cyclodextr...
متن کاملFluorescence turn-on detection of mercury ions based on the controlled adsorption of a perylene probe onto the gold nanoparticles.
A novel fluorescence turn-on strategy based on Au nanoparticles and a perylene probe for the sensing of Hg(2+) ions has been developed. It was observed that a perylene probe could be adsorbed onto the surface of Au NPs through strong electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Its fluorescence was efficiently quenched by the Au nanoparticles. However, in the presence of Hg(2+) and NaBH4, Hg(2+)...
متن کاملStudy of Cis–trans Isomerization Mechanism of [3-(3-Aminomethyl) Phenylazo] Phenyl Acetic Acid as a Causative Role in Alzheimer Using Density Functional Theory
Amyloid-β (Aβ) self-assembly into cross-β amyloidfibrils is implicated in a causative role in Alzheimer’s disease pathology.Uncertainties persist regarding the mechanisms of amyloid self assembly and the role of metastable prefibrillar aggregates. Aβ fibrilsfeature a sheet-turn-sheet motif in the constituent β-strands; as such, turn nucleation has been proposed as a rate-limiting step in the se...
