Singlet oxygen delivery through the porous cap of a hollow-core fiber optic device.

چکیده
The development of the first photosensitizer/fiber optic device is reported. An oxygen-flowing, fiber-capped configuration is used for the application of heterogeneous, spatially confined singlet oxygen delivery in aqueous media. This is a unique device, unlike other heterogeneous photosensitizers, in which local concentrations of singlet oxygen can be delivered via introduction and withdrawal of the fiber tip.

Fiber-optic Singlet Oxygen
Traditionally, Type II heterogeneous photo-oxidations produce singlet oxygen via external irradiation of a sensitizer and external supply of ground-state oxygen. A potential improvement is reported here. A hollow-core fiber-optic device was developed with an ‘‘internal’’ supply of light and flowing oxygen, and a porous photosensitizer-end capped configuration. Singlet oxygen was delivered throu...
متن کاملPhotosensitizer drug delivery via an optical fiber.
An optical fiber has been developed with a maneuverable mini-probe tip that sparges O(2) gas and photodetaches pheophorbide (sensitizer) molecules. Singlet oxygen is produced at the probe tip surface which reacts with an alkene spacer group releasing sensitizer upon fragmentation of a dioxetane intermediate. Optimal sensitizer photorelease occurred when the probe tip was loaded with 60 nmol sen...
متن کاملMid-IR quantum cascade laser mode coupling in hollow-core, fiber- optic waveguides with single-mode beam delivery
We report a theoretical and experimental study of laser coupling in hollow-core, fiber-optic waveguides with small-bore diameters of d=200 μm. For the experiments we utilized three mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers with different emission wavelength, which were coupled into the waveguides using lenses with focal lengths in the range 25-76 mm. Measurements of the output beam profiles and propa...
متن کاملEnhanced High Oxygen Permeation of Mixed-Conducting Multichannel Hollow Fiber Membrane via Surface Modified Porous Layer
The oxygen permeation performance of Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3−δ (BSCF) mixed-conducting multichannel hollow fiber (MCMHF) membranes was improved by surface modification via spin-spraying of a La0.6Sr0.4CoO3−δ (LSC) porous layer. At 1173 K, the oxygen permeation flux of the modified membranes was clearly enhanced and reached 9.68 mL·cm−2·min−1, which is a remarkable high value in the field of mixe...
متن کاملGas Permeation Modeling through a Multilayer Hollow Fiber Composite Membrane
In this study, a time-dependent 2D axisymmetric model of a multilayer hollow fiber composite membrane for gas separation is proposed. In spite of the common multilayer membranes, which a dense layer coated on a porous support layer and subjected into the feed stream, here, the porous support is exposed to the feed gas. In this regard, the governing equations of species transport are developed f...
