Ratiometric fluorescence and mesoporous structured imprinting nanoparticles for rapid and sensitive detection 2,4,6-trinitrophenol.

The present study reports the fabrication of mesoporous-structured ratiometric molecularly imprinted sensors using a combined surface-imprinted and ratiometric fluorescence method. The sensors were subsequently examined in the selective and sensitive determination of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP). In the preparation of the ratiometric system, the reference dye CdTe quantum dots were embedded in si...

A FRET-based ratiometric sensor for mercury ions in water with multi-layered silica nanoparticles as the scaffold.

A FRET system was built for ratiometric sensing of Hg(2+) in water with multilayered silica nanoparticles as the scaffold. This architecture ensures the control over the location of both donor and acceptor and their separation distance within nanoparticles, affording higher energy transfer efficiency and higher signal-to-background ratio for particle-based sensing.

Nanoparticles as scaffolds for FRET-based ratiometric detection of mercury ions in water with QDs as donors.

The quenching of quantum dots' emission by some analytes (Hg(2+), Pb(2+), etc.) has long been hindering the fabrication of QD-based 'turn-on' or ratiometric fluorescent sensors for these analytes. In this study, we demonstrate a facile solution for constructing a robust FRET-based ratiometric sensor for Hg(2+) detection in water with CdTe QDs as the donor. By using the reverse microemulsion app...

Hybrid Photonic Antennae Based on Mesoporous Silica Frameworks

This contribution describes design, preparation and physico-chemical characterization of a new photostable hybrid antenna based on mesoporous SBA-15 silica. Concepts of host-guest chemistry are applied in such a way that one or more photoactive guest molecules are incorporated into the silica channels and on the outer surface, acting as energy harvesting and transferring units. The presented co...
