چکیده

Silica-encapsulated highly luminescent europium nanoparticles with a wide excitation range from UV to visible light (200-450 nm) have been prepared and used for streptavidin labeling and time-gated luminescence imaging of an environmental pathogen, Giardia lamblia.

Artificial luminescent protein as a bioprobe for time-gated luminescence bioimaging.

An artificial luminescent protein, apoferritin-encapsulated luminescent europium complex, has been designed/fabricated and displays good biocompatibility and long-lived luminescence, which means it can be used as a bioprobe to image living cells with a time-gated mode.

Visible light sensitized attapulgite-based lanthanide composites: microstructure, photophysical behaviour and biological application.

Attapulgite, an extremely stable fibrillar mineral present in nature, is a promising new carrier of luminescent lanthanide complexes for further applications. A europium complex Eu(DBM)(3)(H(2)O)(2) (HDBM = dibenzoylmethane) was covalently coupled onto modified attapulgites (or silica nanoparticles) via a ligand exchange reaction, generating attapulgite-based ternary europium complexes. The com...

Calibration beads containing luminescent lanthanide ion complexes.

The reliability of lanthanide luminescence measurements, by both flow cytometry and digital microscopy, would be enhanced by the availability of narrowband emitting, UV excited lanthanide calibration beads. 0.5-, 3-, and 5-microm beads containing a luminescent europium-complex are manufactured. The luminescence distribution of the 5-microm beads is measured with a time-delayed light-scatter-gat...

VUV and UV–vis optical study on KGd2F7 luminescent host doped with terbium and co-doped with europium

The KGd2F7:Tb and KGd2F7:Tb,Eu samples were obtained using a solid state reaction. Excitation spectra and emission spectra are reported and analyzed within the VUV–UV–vis spectral range. The intense green luminescence is observed in the KGd2F7:Tb while the combined emission of terbium and europium in the KGd2F7:Tb,Eu covers substantially the region of white light. The materials under study can ...

A Phosphorescent Iridium(III) Complex‐Modified Nanoprobe for Hypoxia Bioimaging Via Time‐Resolved Luminescence Microscopy

Oxygen plays a crucial role in many biological processes. Accurate monitoring of oxygen level is important for diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Autofluorescence is an unavoidable interference in luminescent bioimaging, so that an amount of research work has been devoted to reducing background autofluorescence. Herein, a phosphorescent iridium(III) complex-modified nanoprobe is developed, wh...
