A Fluorescent Probe for Diacetyl Detection

A water-soluble fluorescent probe, rhodamine B hydrazide (RBH), was prepared and its properties for recognition of diacetyl were studied. The method employs the reaction of diacetyl with RBH, a colorless and non-fluorescent rhodamine B spiro form derivative to give a pink-colored fluorescent substance. In weakly acidic media, RBH reacts more selectively with diacetyl than with other carbonyls, causing a large increase in fluorescence intensity and thereby providing an easy assay for the determination of diacetyl.

Spectroscopic and lasing characteristics of 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-8-ethyl-pyrromethene-BF2 complex

The basic optical properties of the newly synthesized pyrromethene-BF2 derivative (Compound 1) were investigated systematically by its ultraviolet to visible (UV-visible) absorption, fluorescence and triplettriplet absorption. Its lasing characteristics were measured on a dye laser system pumped by a continuous wave Ar ion laser. The results suggest that, compared with the typical pyrromethene-BF2 dye such as P546, Compound 1 possesses stronger fluorescence and lower triplet-triplet absorption over its fluorescence spectral region. Excellent laser properties were also observed for Compound 1. It outperforms the commercially available benchmark laser dye rhodamine 6G in laser wavelength tuning range, which proves that Compound 1 is probably a potential candidate to be developed as the all-solid-state laser material.

Detection of the vapor of asymmetric dimethyl hydrazine in the atmosphere by the method of spectrophotometry in the near IR range

We proposed and tested a method of detecting and determining the content of asymmetric dimethylhydrazine (ADMH) in the atmosphere based on measuring the absorption spectra in the near IR spectral region.

纳米银粒子对表面吸附罗丹明B的光谱学性质的影响及电解质效应研究

基于贵金属纳米粒子的局域场增强效应,利用透射电子显微镜、紫外-可见分光光度计和荧光分光光度计等分析手段研究了纳米银粒子对表面吸附罗丹明B的光谱学性质的影响以及罗丹明B-纳米银体系中加入电解质离子后,电解质离子与纳米银、染料分子间的相互关系和作用.研究结果表明,当罗丹明B溶液的浓度小于0.6 μmol·L－1时,微量纳米银可使其荧光强度略增加,继续增加纳米银浓度则造成荧光强度下降.当罗丹明B溶液的浓度高于0.6 μmol·L－1时,纳米银总是引起溶液的荧光强度下降.KNO3、KCl、Ca(NO3)2、MgCl2和CaCl2电解质可造成纳米银粒子不同程度的聚集和生长.引起的纳米银粒子的聚集程度关系为:CaCl2>MgCl2>KCl>Ca(NO3)2>KNO3.随着电解质加入量的增加,溶液的荧光强度先下降,而后又逐渐增强,直至达到定值.各电解质对罗丹明B-Ag溶液的荧光强度影响强弱关系为Ca(NO3)2>CaCl2>MgCl2>Cl>KNO3.     

A Chemosensing Ensemble for the Detection of Cysteine Based on the Inner Filter Effect Using a Rhodamine B Spirolactam

A fluorescent chemosensing ensemble for the detection of cysteine is designed based on the fluorescence inner filter effect. The method employs the coordination of Cu²⁺ ion with salicylaldehyde rhodamine B hydrazone (I), a colorless and non-fluorescent rhodamine B spirolactam derivative to form I-Cu(II), a pink color but weakly fluorescent complex. When rhodamine B was introduced to the I-Cu(II) complex solution, the fluorescence signal of rhodamine B is dramatically decreased because of the fluorescence inner filter effect (IFE). Upon adding cysteine to the above solution, it can complex preferentially to Cu²⁺ compared to I, and the I-Cu(II) complex dissociates, which thus decreases the fluorescence IFE of the solution, and in turn leading to the fluorescence increase of the chemosensing system. Based on the above mechanism, a fluorescent chemosensing ensemble for cysteine is developed. The fluorescence increase is linearly with cysteine concentration up to 10.0 μ mol L⁻¹, with a detection limit of 1.4 × 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ (3σ). The optimal conditions of the proposed method were studied and the selectivity of the proposed method was investigated in this paper.     

Influence of current amplitude on the nonlinear asymmetric ac volt-ampere characteristics in amorphous ribbons with GMI effect

Asymmetric giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) effect in amorphous ribbons is very promising due to its possible application in developing the highly sensitive linear magnetic-field sensors. In this paper, the model of the nonlinear asymmetric volt-ampere characteristics in field-biased Co-based amorphous ribbon has been established through the time derivative of the longitudinal magnetization component in the ribbon. Its harmonics are also developed by Fourier analysis. The influence of the current amplitude on the nonlinear asymmetric effect has been studied. It is found that when the current amplitude is 8.54 mA, the sensitivity of the first harmonic voltage on the external field is equal to that of the second harmonic voltage. The results obtained are useful for developing the high-sensitive magnetic-field sensors.     

Inflection point of the fluorescence excitation spectra induced by secondary inner filter effect

Abstract

The secondary inner filter effect on the fluorescence excitation spectra of rhodamine 6G aqueous solutions with concentration was demonstrated in this paper. The peak of fluorescence excitation spectrum stays at 525?nm at low concentrations, while it breaks up and turns into valley at high concentrations. The threshold concentration was determined to be 3.16?mg/L by the second derivative spectroscopy. A mathematical model was proposed to explain the inflection point of fluorescence excitation spectrum caused by the secondary inner filter effect. On the basis of it, the threshold concentration was calculated to be 2.86?mg/L, approaching to the experimental result.     

Chemical effect of swirling jet-induced cavitation: degradation of rhodamine B in aqueous solution

The chemical effect of swirling jet-induced cavitation was investigated with the decomposing reaction of rhodamine B in aqueous solution. It was found that rhodamine B in aqueous solution can be degraded with swirling jet-induced cavitation and the degradation can be described by a pseudo-first-order kinetics. The effects of operating conditions such as pressure, temperature, initial concentration of rhodamine B, pH of water on the degradation rate of rhodamine B were discussed. It was found that the degradation rate of rhodamine B increased with increasing pressure and decreased with increasing initial concentration. It was also found that the degradation of rhodamine B was strongly dependent of temperature and pH of aqueous solution. The oxidation efficiency of swirling jet-induced cavitation for rhodamine B degradation was discussed and compared with ultrasonic cavitation. The result indicated that the swirling jet-induced cavitation is more energy efficient as compared to sonochemical cavitation.     

Asymmetric heat conduction in nonlinear lattices

In this Letter, we conduct an extensive study of the two-segment Frenkel-Kontorova model. We show that the rectification effect of the heat flux reported in recent literature is possible only in the weak interfacial coupling limit. The rectification effect will be reversed when the properties of the interface and the system size change. These two types of asymmetric heat conduction are governed by different mechanisms though both are induced by nonlinearity. An intuitive physical picture is proposed to interpret the reversal of the rectification effect. Since asymmetric heat conduction depends critically on the properties of the interface and the system size, it is probably not an easy task to fabricate a thermal rectifier or thermal diode in practice.     

A New Rhodamine-Based “Off-On” Fluorescent Chemosensor for Hg (II) Ion and its Application in Imaging Hg (II) in Living Cells

A novel rhodamine derivative (Rh-C), synthesized by the reaction of rhodamine ethylenediamine and cinnamoyl chloride, was evaluated as a chemoselective Hg(2+) ion sensor. Addition of Hg(2+) to an ethanol aqueous solution of the Rh-C resulted in a color change from colorless to obvious pink color together with distinctive changes in UV-vis absorption spectrum and fluorescence spectrum. However, other common alkali-, alkaline earth-, transition- and rare earth metal ions induced no or minimal spectral changes. The interaction of Hg(2+) and sensor Rh-C was proven to adopt a 1:1 binding stoichiometry and the recognition process is reversible. The chemosensor displayed a linear response to Hg(2+) in the range of 0.4-5?μM with a detection limit of 7.4?×?10(-8)?M. The sensor Rh-C was also successfully applied to the imaging of Hg(2+) in HL-7702 cells.     

Effect of cyclooctatetraene on the laser properties of rhodamine 6G solution under flashlamp excitation

The metastable level lifetime of rhodamine 6G in ethanol solution was measured by a dye laser with and without a cyclooctatetraene additive. In contrast to the existing ideas it was shown that the presence of cyclooctatetraene not only fails to decrease but on the contrary increases the lifetime τ_T of this dye. The improvement observed in the oscillation properties is expected to be connected with the decrease of the interconversion rate in a rhodamine 6G molecule when it is surrounded by a shell of the cyclooctatetraene molecules.

Energy transfer in porous anodic alumina/rhodamine 110 nanocomposites

We have used porous anodic alumina (PAA) films as templates for embedding rhodamine 110 (Rh110) molecules and examined their photoluminescence (PL) properties in detail. The analysis of the polarization memory (PM) of PL strongly suggests that there is a significant energy transfer from PAA to Rh110 molecules. The effect of annealing the PAA layer on the PL properties of the nanocomposite has been studied. The results show that the energy transfer becomes more efficient in annealed PAA.     

含咔唑取代基喹啉铝衍生物的发光性能：一种潜在的多功能荧光传感材料

研究了一种含咔唑取代基喹啉铝(Alq₃)衍生物的发光性能。首先,研究了溶剂对其发光性能的影响。研究发现,在不同溶剂体系中,Alq₃衍生物在发光过程中均存在不同程度的能量传递;但是,溶剂影响Alq₃衍生物的空间结构和电子结构,进而影响能量传递效率,导致激发光谱、发射光谱、荧光效率和荧光寿命均不相同。其中,甲苯起到能量传递桥梁的作用;而DMF在一定程度上阻碍能量传递。与DMF结构类似的DMA作为电子给体加入到Alq₃衍生物溶液中,也起到了类似作用。另外,研究不同金属离子对Alq₃衍生物发光性能的影响发现,Fe3+和Cu2+可引起Alq₃衍生物的荧光猝灭,表明该Alq₃衍生物可以作为多功能荧光传感材料。

Luminescent spectral properties of rhodamine derivatives while binding to serum albumin

We have studied the effect of blood serum albumin on the absorption and fluorescence spectra of rhodamine C (RC), rhodamine 6G (R6G), and rhodamine 3B (R3B). Interaction of the dye with protein is assessed using the binding parameters: binding constants and concentrations of binding sites. We have studied the effect of temperature on the binding parameters. We have observed that heating a mixture of the dye solution with protein for 30 min leads to an increase in the binding constant for rhodamine 3B with protein by a factor of 2, while the concentration of binding sites increases by a factor of 2.3. This is explained by features of the globular protein structure and a change in its conformation when heated. We have shown that rhodamine 3B at a concentration of 10⁻⁵ M is the most effective among the studied rhodamine dyes for application as a fluorescent probe when studying conformational changes in blood serum protein.

Synthesis and optical properties of a new lipophilic derivative of rhodamine B1

In this paper, a new rhodamine B lauryl amine (RBL) lipophilic derivative was synthesized by amidation of phenyl carboxylic group of RB with lauryl amine, and then its optical properties were studied on different conditions, such as varied excitation wavelengths, different kinds of solvents, pH values, etc. The results show that the absorption and emission spectra are significant different with the different structures of RBL. The absorption intensity of RBL in solvents with weak acidic proton was stronger than that in aprotic solvent because the former one can form hydrogen bond and thus stabilize the opened form of RBL. The fluorescence emission of RBL in dichloromethane and ethanol was stronger than that in acetone, tetrahydrofuran and water. It indicated that most of RBL molecules were in opened form in dichloromethane and ethanol, but in closed form in acetone, tetrahydrofuran and water. Finally, the influence of pH values was studied, and found that the intensity and position of absorption and emission peaks were almost the same in the whole acidic range, but changed a lot in alkaline medium.     

硫醇衍生化的纳米金与癌胚抗原相互作用的光学分析

纳米金已在在药物靶向传输体系、疾病检测、分子识别、生物标签等领域有着广泛的应用,但是,由于纳米金的表面效应,大量的表面原子具有巨大剩余成键能力,使得纳米金粒子较容易团聚、沉聚,影响了其稳定性。为了实现对肿瘤靶标之一-癌胚抗原的痕量检测,需要制备出对癌胚抗原检测具有良好的增色效应与荧光增敏效应的纳米材料。该工作采用纳米金的硫醇衍生法制备了一种新型的硫醇衍生化的纳米金材料,并对此新型硫醇衍生化的纳米金材料的特性用透射电子显微镜,紫外-可见吸收光谱,荧光发射光谱和红外光谱等方法进行了研究。紫外-可见吸收光谱,荧光发射光谱的实验结果表明,在新的配体乙二硫醇存在下,有更多的电子从配体的轨道跃迁到与中心离子相关的轨道上,导致荧光增强。这种新型硫醇衍生化的纳米金与癌胚抗原作用时表现出增色效应与荧光增敏效应,而纳米金与癌胚抗原作用时看不到这种增色效应与荧光增敏效应。红外方法的研究结果表明,这种材料的蛋白增色机理为当硫醇衍生化纳米金与癌胚抗原蛋白作用时,体系中蛋白的—OH表现出更多的面外弯曲振动,有利于电子从硫醇衍生化纳米金配合物向蛋白转移而导致其增色和荧光增敏效应。因而这种新的硫醇衍生化纳米金材料比纳米金将具有更好的生物检测应用价值。
