A fluorescent thermometer operating in aggregation-induced emission mechanism: probing thermal transitions of PNIPAM in water.

چکیده
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) was labelled using a fluorogen with an aggregation-induced emission feature by direct polymerization; the label served as a fluorogenic probe that reveals fine details in the thermal transitions in the aqueous solution of the polymer; the working mode was readily tuned between non-monotonic and monotonic by changing the labelling degree of the polymer.

The thermoreversible phase transition of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) randomly labeled with a spin label, 4-amino-2,2',6,6'-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxide (TEMPO), and a fluorescent dye, 4-(pyren-1-yl)butyl (PNIPAM-Py-T), in different H2O/MeOH mixtures was studied by turbidimetry, continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (CW-EPR), and fluorescence spectroscopy. The macroscopic...
متن کاملLCST transition of PNIPAM-b-PVCL in water: cooperative aggregation of two distinct thermally responsive segments.
The self-aggregation behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-b-poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PNIPAM-b-PVCL) during the thermal-induced phase transition in water was explored by a combination of calorimetric, turbidity, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and FTIR measurements. Only one transition can be observed via all detecting methods, revealing the cooperative aggregation of the two distinct tempera...
متن کاملFluorometric probing of the lipase level as acute pancreatitis biomarkers based on interfacially controlled aggregation-induced emission (AIE).
As a sudden inflammation of the pancreas, acute pancreatitis presents severe complications and a high mortality rate, despite treatment. Lipase in serum serves as an essential biomarker of acute pancreatitis and even pancreatic cancer. Therefore, developing robust, convenient and sensitive probing of lipase levels is greatly needed. In this work, we present glutamate functionalized tetraphenyle...
