Resonance light scattering properties of Eu3+ in gold colloid

Gold colloidal containing rare-earth ions Eu3+ were prepared at room temperature. Fluorescence spectra and resonance light scattering (RLS) spectra of Eu3+ ions and gold colloid containing Eu3+ were measured. For solution containing Eu3+, RLS features show two peaks at the edges of the visible light wavelength region. The short wavelength peak takes place at about 400 nm and the longer wavelength peak is the corresponding 1/2 fraction frequency RLS peak, which takes place at about 780 nm. When gold colloids were added to the solution containing Eu3+, both these two RLS peaks were enhanced. We believe that the energies, which are absorbed by the surface plasmon resonance in the gold nanoparticles, are efficiently transferred into the Eu3+ ions to cause the increased scattering.

The Interaction between Propranolol and Gold Nanoparticles and its Analytical Application

The addition of propranolol induced the aggregation of gold nanoparticles, and increased Rayleigh light scattering (RLS) intensity greatly. The interaction between them was studied by RLS spectrum, UV-Vis spectrum and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Based on these results, a novel method was proposed for propranolol assay. With the combination of solid phase microextraction (SPME), the proposed method was successfully applied to determine propranolol in urine.     

Resonance light scattering spectroscopy study of interaction between norfloxacin and calf thymus DNA and its analytical application

The interaction between norfloxacin and calf thymus double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) has been studied by a resonance light scattering (RLS) technique with a common spectrofluorometer. The characteristics of RLS spectra, the effective factors and optimum conditions of the reaction have been investigated. In Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer (pH 5.87), norfloxacin has a maximum peak 405.5 nm and the RLS intensity is remarkably enhanced by trace amount of calf thymus dsDNA due to the interaction between norfloxacin and dsDNA. The binding of norfloxacin to DNA forms large particles, which were characterized by RLS spectrum, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectrum, and fluorescence spectrum. Based on the enhanced RLS intensity, a novel method for sensitive determination of calf thymus dsDNA concentration ranging from 0.02 to 2.3 microg ml(-1) was developed. The determination limit (3 sigma) was 1.2 ng ml(-1). The method is simple, rapid, practical and relatively free from interference generated by coexisting substance, as well as much more sensitive than most of the reported methods. Three synthetic samples of ctDNA were determined with satisfactory results.     

Determination of DNA based on localized surface plasmon resonance light scattering using unmodified gold bipyramids

The DNA was determined based on resonance light scattering (RLS) spectrometry and the localized surface plasmon resonance. The gold bipyramids were used as the probes and synthesized by a seed-mediated method. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide was used as stabilizing agent. DNA can be bound to the gold bipyramids due to electrostatic interaction and aggregates, which results in a strong enhancement of the RLS intensity. Under the optimal conditions, the intensity of RLS is directly proportional to the concentration of DNA in the range from 0.1 to 2.0 μg mL(-1).

It was found that the binding Kf and the number of binding n were 5.98 × 105 and 1.4, respectively.     

甲基紫与苋菜红相互作用的双波长共振光散射比率光谱研究及其分析应用

应用双波长共振光散射比率法(DW-RLS)研究了甲基紫与苋菜红之间的相互作用.在pH 1.24的乙酸钠-HCl缓冲溶液中,甲基紫和苋菜红本身的共振光散射(RLS)信号均很弱,但是当它们相互作用形成缔合物时,导致RLS信号明显增强并出现新的RLS光谱,适当浓度的Triton X-100存在使结合反应敏化,缔合物最大散射峰位于528 nm,RLS信号强度与苋菜红的浓度呈线性关系.通过测量528 nm处的RLS强度或两个波长处RLS强度比值(I417/I343),可对苋菜红进行定量检测.当溶液中甲基紫的浓度为1.54×10-5 mol/L时,RLS法测定苋菜红的线性范围和检出限分别为0.05～0.50 μg/mL和0.02 μg/mL,而DW-RLS法的线性范围和检出限分别为0.01～0.60 μg/mL和1 ng/mL,与RLS法相比较,DW-RLS法受酸度、离子强度等环境条件影响较小,并且有更宽的线性范围和更低的检出限.     

曙红Y的共振光散射与共振荧光

研究了曙红Y（EY）的共振散射光谱、荧光光谱和吸收光谱,讨论了共振光散射与共振荧光的区别与联系。在EY水溶液三维荧光等高线光谱图中,瑞利散射线与荧光等高线有部分相交。EY的共振散射峰（525nm）介于荧光激发峰（514nm）和发射峰（536nm）之间。由光偏振实验,测得EY共振散射光谱525nm处的偏振度P=0．20。上述实验结果证明,EY的共振散射峰主要是共振荧光。在改变pH的实验中发现,EY共振光散射增强是由于酸碱平衡的移动导致荧光型体的形成。由于自吸收的影响,共振散射光强度与EY浓度之间不是严格的线性关系。     

Evanescent Wave Light Scattering A Fusion of the Evanescent Wave and Light Scattering Techniques to the Study of Colloids and Polymers Near the Interface

The evanescent wave light scattering technique, which is produced by a fusion of the evanescent wave technique and light scattering technique, is a very powerful and useful tool for investigation of colloidal particles and polymers near the surface and interfaces. We have developed two kinds of evanescent wave light scattering apparatuses. One is the evanescent wave dynamic light scattering (EVDLS) technique and the other is the evanescent wave light scattering microscope (EVLSM). By EVDLS, the diffusion behavior of a colloidal particle near the interface can be extracted quantitatively as a function of the distance from the interface. The diffusion coefficient was smaller than those for particles in bulk, reflecting electrostatic and hydrodynamic interactions. By EVLSM, the interaction potential profile between a colloidal particle and the surface in dispersion can be evaluated directly. EVLSM will play an important role in colloidal interaction studies, especially at a low ionic strength. It is also pointed out that a particle dynamics study is also possible by the EVLSM technique. A new field will be developed in colloid science and polymer science by application of the evanescent wave light scattering technique, i. e. a fusion of the evanescent light and a light scattering techniques.     

A new way to detect the interaction of DNA and anticancer drugs based on the decreased resonance light scattering signal and its potential application

A novel assay has been developed to detect the interaction of DNA and anticancer drugs based on the decreased resonance light scattering (RLS) technique. The proposed method can be used to study those drugs which do not produce a RLS-signal after binding to DNA. RLS was used to monitor the interaction of five anticancer drugs with DNA. The reaction between anticancer drugs and DNA took place in BR buffer solution. From the RLS assay, the sequence of five anticancer drugs activities was as follows: CTX < MTX < Pt < MMC < 5-Fu. Mammary cancer cell DNA (mcDNA) was involved to validate the RLS assay. The results showed that the sensitivities of the five anticancer drugs targeting both mcDNA and ctDNA increased in the same order. However the sensitivity of each drug to mcDNA was higher than that to ctDNA It is a significant innovation of the RLS method to detect the interaction of DNA and anticancer drugs and to obtain drug sensitivity, which provides new strategies to screen DNA targeted anticancer drugs.

Determination of a cationic surfactant with naphthalene black 12B by the resonance light scattering technique

A new determination method for a cationic surfactant, zephiramine (Zeph), was developed with resonance light scattering (RLS) technique, based on the interaction of naphthalene black 12B with Zeph. The resonance light scattering (RLS) and UV characteristics of interaction between naphthalene black 12B and Zeph were studied. The RLS intensity of naphthalene black 12B at 363 nm was greatly enhanced in the presence of Zeph at pH 6.0. The enhanced RLS is proportional to the concentration of Zeph in the range of 3.20 x 10(-7) - 1.44 x 10(-5) mol L(-1). The limit of detection was 8.8 x 10(-8) mol L(-1). The proposed method was applied to the determination of Zeph in synthetic and spiked water samples with the recovery of 96.2-104% and RSD of 1.1-2.5%.

Determination of proteins with Fast Red VR by a corrected resonance light-scattering technique.

A simple corrected resonance light-scattering (CRLS) technique was established to correct for any distortion of the resonance light scattering (RLS) spectra resulting from molecular absorption. By using an absorption cell holder to change the propagation direction of the incident light beam of a common spectrofluorometer, the molecular absorption was directly measured through a spectrofluorometer. With measurements of the CRLS signals of the interaction of Fast Red VR (FRV) and proteins, we proved that the present correction for the RLS spectra in terms of the molecular absorption of excitation and scattering radiation can improve the detection sensitivity by about two fold.     

Raman scatterings of colloidal silver and gold prepared in the presence of a nonionic surfactant,Surfynol 465

The FT-Raman and resonance Raman scatterings of colloidal silver or gold formed in the presence of a nonionic surfactant, Surfynol 465, were studied. The intensity of Raman scattering of colloidal solution was strongly affected by the power of laser for excitation. At the low power, the intensity of scattering and the spectrum of colloidal solution were normal. However, at the high power, the intensity of Raman scattering anomalously increased over the whole frequency region, suggesting the surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) on colloidal silver or gold. And in the Raman spectra new bands were found in addition to bands of starting materials. Through the assignment of new bands, the working mechanism of Surfynol 465 for the formation of colloidal silver or gold was discussed.     

A DNA biosensor based on resonance light scattering using unmodified gold bipyramids

We report on a novel biosensor for determining sequence-specific DNA. It is based on resonance light scattering (RLS) caused by the aggregation of gold bipyramids. These display localized surface plasmon resonance and can be used as a bioprobe. The absorption spectra and the transmission electron micrographs provide visual evidence of the aggregation of the gold bipyramids in the presence of DNA. The RLS intensity of the gold bipyramids increases with the concentration of the target DNA. The method was successfully applied to the determination of a 30-mer single-stranded oligonucleotide and works over the 0.1–10?nM concentration range.

Assessment of silver and gold substrates for the detection of amphetamine sulfate by surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)

Methods of detection of amphetamine sulfate using surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from colloidal suspensions and vapour deposited films of both silver and gold are compared. Different aggregating agents are required to produce effective SERS from silver and gold colloidal suspensions. Gold colloid and vapour deposited gold films give weaker scattering than the equivalent silver substrates when high concentrations of drug are analysed but they also give lower detection limits, suggesting a smaller surface enhancement but stronger surface adsorption. A 10(-5) mol dm(-3) solution (the final concentration after addition of colloid was 10(-6) mol dm(-3)) of amphetamine sulfate was detected from gold colloid with an RSD of 5.4%. 25 microl of the same solution could be detected on a roughened gold film. The intensities of the spectra varied across the film surface resulting in relatively high RSDs. The precision was improved by averaging the scattering from several points on the surface. An attempt to improve the detection limit and precision by concentrating a suspension of gold colloid and amphetamine sulfate in aluminium wells did not give effective quantitation. Thus, positive identification and semi-quantitative estimation of amphetamine sulfate can be made quickly and easily using SERS from suspended gold colloid with the appropriate aggregating agents.

A High-Sensitivity Assay of Nucleic Acids with Tetraphenyl Porphyrin Cobalt Chlorine by Resonance Light Scattering Technique

Abstract

A novel probe, tetraphenyl porphyrin cobalt chlorine (CoTPPCl), is first applied to determine nucleic acids at the nanogram level based on the measurement of resonance light scattering (RLS) signals, which result from the interaction of CoTPPCl with nucleic acids. Under pH 6.37 conditions, the reaction between CoTPPCl and nucleic acid enhances the weak resonance light scattering (RLS) signal of CoTPPCl, and the enhanced light scattering intensity is proportional to the concentration of nucleic acid. The method is sensitive (3.45 ng/mL for ctDNA), simple (one step and a common fluorimeter), and tolerant of the metal ions and other coexistent substances. The mode of the combination between CoTPPCl and nucleic acids and the reasons for RLS enhancement are clearly clarified. Synthetic samples were determined with satisfactory results.     

H-aggregation of cationic palladium-porphyrin as a function of anionic surfactant studied using phosphorescence, absorption and RLS spectra

Room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) was used as a useful analytical tool to investigate the interaction behavior between tetracationic meso-tetrakis (4-trimethylaminophenyl) porphyrin palladium (Pd-TAPP) and anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). UV-vis absorption and resonance light scattering (RLS) were further applied to characterize the system. It was presumably suggested that nonspecific self-aggregates among porphyrins formed considering the relatively high concentration of Pd-TAPP. Furthermore, Pd-TAPP changed from free monomer/nonspecific aggregate to H-aggregate and then to out-micellized monomer/nonspecific aggregate as a function of SDS concentration. The fact that RTP signal enhanced obviously and excitation spectrum was blue-shifted by 1580cm(-1) in energy with respect to energy of free Pd-TAPP monomer demonstrated that 1:4 electrostatic interaction between Pd-TAPP and SDS led to the formation of the premicellar porphyrin-surfactant H-aggregates. The RLS spectrum reviewed that the formed H-aggregates were multiple porphyrin units, and UV-vis spectra revealed that cationic groups of monomers/nonspecific aggregates of Pd-TAPP were electrostatically attracted in favor of the surface of anionic micelles but were not encapsulated within apolar regions of SDS micelles when the concentration of SDS was above its critical micelle concentration (CMC).
