Abstract— Time-resolved measurements were made of near-infrared emission from 5-( N -hexadecanoyl)amino-eosinlabeled L1210 leukemia cells following pulsed-laser excitation. The cells were suspended in phosphate-buffered saline made with deuterium oxide solvent. A significant fraction of the emission occuring10–80 μs after the laser pulse was due to singlet oxygen. This singlet-oxygen emission is believed to result from singlet oxygen generated near the cell-membrane surface, where 5-( N -hexadecanoyl)amino eosin is known to concentrate, and then diffusing out into the buffer. The intensity and the kinetics of the experimentally observed singlet-oxygen emission were in excellent agreement with the predictions of a theoretical one-dimensional model of singlet-oxygen diffusion and quenching.
During the10–80 μs time period studied, most of the singlet oxygen was located in the buffer. Thus, the use of water-soluble singlet-oxygen quenchers, such as histidine, provide one means of separating the singlet-oxygen emission quenchers, such as histidine, provide one means of separating the singlet-oxygen emission from other sources of light during this time interval.  相似文献

Abstract— Time-resolved measurements of 1270 nm singlet-oxygen emission following pulsed-laser excitation were made from unilamellar dimyristoyl 1-α-phosphatidylcholine liposomes labeled with zinc phthalocyanine. The effect of the hydrophobic quenchers, β-carotene and ethyl β-apo-8' trans carotenoate, and the hydrophilic quenchers, histidine and methionine, upon the kinetics of the 1270 nm singlet-oxygen emission was studied. Hydrophobic quenchers principally lowered the intensity of the 1270 nm emission and caused only modest changes in the lifetime of the 1270 nm emission. The decrease in 1270 nm emission caused by hydrophobic quenchers was related to the size of the liposomes. The larger the radius of the liposome, the greater the decrease in 1270 nm emission caused by a given concentration of hydrophobic quencher. In contrast, hydrophilic quenchers principally decreased the lifetime of the 1270 nm emission. The effect of hydrophilic quenchers was independent of the size of the liposomes.
There was good agreement between the experimental results and the kinetics of the singlet-oxygen emission calculated using a one dimensional model of singlet-oxygen quenching and diffusion. The kinetics of singlet-oxygen emission from liposomes without added hydrophobic quenchers closely approximated the theoretical kinetics of singlet oxygen in a homogeneous aqueous solution.  相似文献

The role of electronically excited singlet (1Δg) oxygen molecules in the photooxidation of polymers has received increased attention in recent years. Little information regarding the interaction of ultraviolet stabilizers with singlet oxygen is known, however. In this study, singlet oxygen was produced by a microwave discharge in a flow system and rate constants were obtained for quenching by ultraviolet stabilizers. It was found that some nickel chelate stabilizers are effective quenchers of singlet oxygen and their quenching behaviors can be correlated with ultraviolet stabilization effectiveness in thin polypropylene and polyethylene films. The best oxygen quenchers of those examined are nickel chelates with sulfur donor ligands.  相似文献

Abstract— On unsensitized photooxygenation magnesium meso -tetraphenylporphyrin underwent oxidative ring cleavage yielding a bilitriene derivative as the sole product. Kinetic studies by quenching technique using singlet-oxygen quenchers, ß-carotene and α-tocopherol, and by substrate direct disappearance technique (Foote and Ching) indicated that only singlet-oxygen process is involved in the photooxygenation, and that the rate of total consumption of singlet oxygen ( k Q+ k R) is 1.0 ± 0.4 times 108 M -1s-1.  相似文献

Time resolved measurements of singlet oxygen phosphorescence at 1270 nm were made from unsealed red cell ghosts, labeled with 5-(N-hexadecanoyl)aminoeosin and suspended in deuterium oxide buffer. The singlet oxygen emission lifetime was long, 23 +/- 1 microseconds. The lifetime of the singlet oxygen phosphorescence from intact unsealed ghosts was not a measure of the singlet oxygen lifetime within the red cell ghost membrane, however. The prolonged singlet oxygen emission was due to singlet oxygen escaping from the thin membrane into the buffer, since the emission lifetime was significantly shortened by adding azide ion or water to the deuterium oxide buffer. The lifetime of singlet oxygen within the red cell ghosts membrane was estimated by dispersing the ghosts with detergent and then measuring the singlet oxygen lifetime in deuterium oxide buffers containing various dilutions of the dispersed ghosts. Apparent singlet-oxygen quenching constants were measured using four different photosensitizing dyes and two different detergents. The apparent quenching constant was independent of the dye used, but varied significantly with different detergents. Extrapolation of this data to "100%" ghost concentration gave a singlet oxygen lifetime from 24 and 130 ns. A ghost concentration of "100%" was defined as that concentration of red cell ghost molecules which would be contained within a red cell ghost membrane pellet containing no buffer solutions. Most of the singlet oxygen quenching was due to proteins. Lipids extracted from red cell ghosts accounted for only 2-7% of the total singlet oxygen quenching.  相似文献

Abstract— Several ozone-biomolecule reactions have previously been shown to generate singlet oxygen in high yields. For some of these orone-biomolecule reactions, we now show that the apparent singlet-oxygen yields determined from measurements of 1270 nm chemiluminescence were artifactually elevated by production of gas-phase singlet oxygen. The gas-phase singlet oxygen results from the reaction of gas-phase ozone with biomolecules near the surface of the solution. Through the use of a flow system that excludes air from the reaction chamber, accurate singlet-oxygen yields can be obtained. The revised singlet-oxygen yields (mol 1O2 per mol O3) for the reactions of ozone with cysteine, reduced glutathione, NADH, NADPH, human albumin, methionine, uric acid and oxidized glutathione are 0.23 ± 0.02, 0.26 ± 0.02, 0.48 ± 0.04, 0.41 ± 0.01, 0.53 ± 0.06, 1.11 ± 0.04, 0.73 ± 0.05 and 0.75 ± 0.01, respectively. These revised singlet-oxygen yields are still substantial.  相似文献

A study designed to ascertain the role of singlet molecular oxygen in the photodegradation of plastics established that most classes of dye chromophores are sensitizers in polymer films, absorbing light and transferring the absorbed energy to ambient triplet ground state molecular oxygen, generating metastable reactive singlet molecular oxygen. Unsaturated polymers containing polybutadiene, polyisoprene, etc. are highly reactive to singlet oxygen produced through photosensitization, generating hydroxylic and carbonyl derivatives and losing their rubbery properties as consequences of such reactions. Many types of transition metal chelates are singlet oxygen quenchers. The relationships of the structures and spectroscopic properties of these chelates to their efficiency in quenching singlet oxygen are examined and discussed.  相似文献

Abstract— A variety of experimental tests have been applied to the methylene-blue-sensitized photooxidation of amino acids to distinguish between singlet oxygen and non-singlet oxidation mechanisms. Conventional flash photolysis and laser photolysis were used to measure the rate constants for the quenching of excited triplet sensitizer and singlet oxygen by the amino acids histidine. tryptophan and methionine and the nucleotide guanosine-5′-monophosphate. In the case of histidine, the rate constants alone rule out an oxidation mechanism involving direct reaction with excited dye. With the other amino acids, and with guanosine monophosphate, the oxidation rates might be accounted for by either mechanism. The inhibition of the photo-oxidation of both tryptophan and methionine as well as histidine by the singlet-oxygen quenchers N3? and tetramethylethylene suggests that these reactions occur via a singlet-oxygen mechanism. A newly developed test of singlet oxygen reactions involving a comparison of photooxidation rates in normal and perdeuterated solvents has been used to establish that the photooxidation of tryptophan proceeds primarily by a singlet-oxygen mechanism. These experiments appear to constitute the first proof that singlet oxygen is involved in the photooxidation of the three amino acids tryptophan, methionine and histidine.  相似文献

Light-dependent oxygen uptake was observed and studied in thylakoids from early greening barley in comparison to oxygen uptake in chlorophyll solutions and in thylakoids from fully green leaves. Substantial oxygen uptake was observed in chlorophyll solutions supplemented with tryptophan, histidine, ascorbic acid or linoleic acid. This uptake was diminished by adding azide, beta-carotene and alpha-tocopherol, which are specific singlet-oxygen quenchers. Illuminated thylakoids from greening barley also exhibited marked oxygen uptake that, likewise, was strongly quenched by azide. In comparison, azide was found not to affect oxygen uptake that is associated with the methyl viologen-catalyzed Mehler reaction. It is reasoned that in the first two cases the oxygen uptake arises from chlorophyll-photosensitized activation of oxygen to the singlet state and its consumption by exogenous or endogenous substrates. In greening, we propose that disorganized chlorophyll photo-sensitizes the oxygen uptake.  相似文献

Abstract— A series of amines were found to quench singlet oxygen in the order tertiary > secondary > primary, with a reasonable correlation between the log of their rate constant of quenching and their ionization potential. In addition, a Hammett rho plot gave a rho value of - 1.39 for the quenching of singlet oxygen by a series of substituted N, N-dimethylanilines, in good agreement with the results obtained by a different method. It was found that some of the amines (anilines) quenched the triplet state of the dye-sensitizer (Rose Bengal) used for the production of singlet oxygen. Corrections in the results were made in the calculations of rates of quenching of singlet oxygen to allow for the triplet-state quenching. No extensive quenching of the singlet state of the dye was observed at the concentrations of the amines necessary for singlet-oxygen quenching. In one case (N, N, N', N'-tetramethylphenylenediamine) there was no observable chemical reaction between singlet oxygen and the amine. It was concluded that singlet oxygen undergoes physical quenching by the amines via partial charge-transfer intermediates.  相似文献

The relative importance of type I and type II mechanisms in the photodynamic treatment of red blood cell concentrations (RBCC) to inactivate viruses was studied using aluminum phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate (AlPcS4), visible light and quenching or enhancing agents of reactive forms of oxygen. Treatment of a human RBCC with 10-13 microM AlPcS4 and 25-26 mW/cm2 visible light resulted in the rapid and complete inactivation of added vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). The addition of mannitol, glycerol, reduced glutathione (GSH), or superoxide dismutase (SOD), known quenching agents of type I mechanisms, had little to no effect on the rate of inactivation of VSV. Significant inhibition of VSV kill was observed on addition of tryptophan or sodium azide, known quenchers of type II mechanisms. Additionally, the rate of VSV kill was enhanced in the presence of D2O. Taken together, these results indicate a predominant role of singlet oxygen in the inactivation of VSV on photodynamic treatment of RBCC. The relative importance of type I and type II mechanisms on cellular toxicity was also evaluated. Little, if any hemoglobin release was observed on treatment of human or rabbit RBCC with 10 microM AlPcS4 and 44 J/cm2 of visible light in the presence or absence of the above mentioned quenchers. The effect of the addition of quenchers on the recovery and circulatory survival of treated, autologous rabbit RBCC, labeled with 51Cr, was also assessed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A method based on infrared spectral changes in thin films was devised and used to evaluate the relative effectiveness of various types of additives on photodegradative processes in an olefinically unsaturated polymer. Nickel chelates of the thiobisphenol-amine complex type are shown to be quantitatively more effective in retarding the photodegradation of these polymers than other additives having greater singlet oxygen quenching efficiencies, ultraviolet absorption, or radical antioxidant properties. Photosensitization with a singlet oxygen sensitizer (fluoranthene) rapidly produces degradative effects in the polymer which are identical with those of its direct degradation by light. The sensitized effects are also retarded by the nickel chelates. Photosensitization by a hydrogen atom-abstracting sensitizer (a benzophenone) proved considerably less effective. The effectiveness of the nickel complexes appears to be due to a combination of their ability to quench singlet oxygen and precusor excited states and their relative stability under photoexposure conditions.  相似文献

The importance of singlet (1Δg) oxygen quenching in the stabilisation mechanism of polypropylene by metal chelates has been investigated. Methylene blue was used as the sensitiser and 9,10-dimethyl anthracene was used as a singlet oxygen chemical trap. The results show that singlet oxygen quenching has no important rôle in the stabilising mechanism of metal chelates, in a polypropylene matrix.The importance of ultraviolet screening by the chelates as a stabilising mechanism is also considered. Various concentration levels, ranging from 0·001% to 1·0% w/w, were used. The results show that, as in the case of singlet oxygen quenching, ultraviolet screening is unimportant as an effective photo-stabilising mechanism.The photo-stability of four nickel chelates in both polar and non-polar solvents has been examined using conventional flash photolysis. It is found that their activity correlates with their ability to protect the polymer at concentrations below 0·2% w/w. The radicals formed during flash photolysis are tentatively assigned to be phenoxy radicals.  相似文献

Analysis of the photomixtures resulting from irradiation of aqueous solutions of linoleic acid sensitized by tiaprofenic acid (TPA) or its major photoproduct (DTPA) by HPLC has shown the formation of all the four possible conjugated dienic hydroperoxides. According to laser flash photolysis experiments the rate constants for hydrogen abstraction from linoleic acid by the excited triplet states of TPA and DTPA are 2 x 10(5) and 3.2x 10(5) M(-1) s(-1), respectively. These data, together with the known rate constants for oxygen quenching of triplet (D)TPA and for the reaction of singlet oxygen with linoleic acid, show that the mechanism is mixed type I/type II. Finally, typical radical scavengers such as BHA and singlet oxygen quenchers such as DABCO and sodium azide are efficient quenchers of the triplet excited state of DTPA. This shows the risk of assigning mechanisms based on indirect 'evidences' using 'specific' additives.  相似文献

The azide anion is often used as a physical quencher of singlet oxygen, the important active intermediate in photosensitized oxidation. An observed effect of azide on the rate of a reaction is considered an indication to the involvement of singlet oxygen. In most biological photosensitizations, the light‐absorbing sensitizer is located in a membrane or in an intracellular organelle, whereas azide is water soluble. The quenching it causes relies on a physical encounter with singlet oxygen during the latter's short lifetime. This can happen either if azide penetrates into the membrane's lipid phase or if singlet oxygen is intercepted when diffusing in the aqueous phase. We demonstrate in this article the difference, in liposomes’ suspension, between the effect of azide when using a water‐soluble and membrane‐bound chemical targets of singlet oxygen, whereas this difference does not exist when micelles are used. We explain the difference on the population of sensitizer and target in the liposome vs micelle. We also show the effect that exists on azide quenching of singlet oxygen by electrically charged lipids in liposomes. This is a result of the accumulation or dilution of azide in the debye layer near the membranes’ surface, due to the surface Gouy–Chapman potential.  相似文献

MECHANISM OF PHOTOINACTIVATION OF PLANT PLASMA MEMBRANE ATPASE   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Abstract UV radiation at 290 and 365 nm inactivates two forms of the K+-stimulated ATPase associated with the plasma membrane of suspension-cultured cells of Rosa damascena . One form is 15 and 36 times more sensitive than the other to 290 and 365 nm, respectively. For both forms, the inactivation requires oxygen, is inhibited by azide and diazobicyclo(2.2.2.2)octane, but not glycerol, and is enhanced up to 7.5 times in deuterium oxide solvent. Inactivation occurs concomitantly with loss of absorbance at 290 nm. Cs+ and NO3, quenchers of tryptophan fluorescence, inhibit inactivation. The results suggest that inactivation involves singlet-oxygen mediated destruction of tryptophans in the ATPases.  相似文献

Ratiometric photonic explorers for bioanalysis with biologically localized embedding (PEBBLE) nanoprobes have been developed for singlet oxygen, using organically modified silicate (ORMOSIL) nanoparticles as the matrix. A crucial aspect of these ratiometric singlet-oxygen fluorescent probes is their minute size. The ORMOSIL nanoparticles are prepared via a sol-gel-based process and the average diameter of the resultant particles is about 160 nm. These sensors incorporate the singlet-oxygen-sensitive 9,10-dimethyl anthracene as an indicator dye and a singlet-oxygen-insensitive dye, octaethylporphine, as a reference dye for ratiometric fluorescence-based analysis. We have found experimentally that these nanoprobes have much better sensitivity than does the conventional singlet-oxygen-free dye probe, anthracene-9,10-dipropionic acid disodium salt. The much longer lifetime of singlet oxygen in the ORMOSIL matrix, compared to aqueous solutions, in addition to the relatively high singlet oxygen solubility because of the highly permeable structure and the hydrophobic nature of the outer shell of the ORMOSIL nanoparticles, results in an excellent overall response to singlet oxygen. These nanoprobes have been used to monitor the singlet oxygen produced by "dynamic nanoplatforms" that were developed for photodynamic therapy. The singlet oxygen nanoprobes could potentially be used to quantify the singlet oxygen produced by macrophages.  相似文献

Abstract— The triplet state characteristics (spectrum, lifetime and quantum yield) for four dye sensi tisers [methylene blue (MB), erythrosin (ER), haematoporphyrin (HP) and riboflavin (RF)] were determined in methanol by laser flash photolysis and singlet oxygen yields (0.60 to 0.48) from time-resolved measurements of the 1270 nm near infrared emission. The reaction of singlet oxygen with four long chain unsaturated phenyl esters [oleate (18: 1), linoleate (18: 2), linolenate (18: 3) and arachidonate (20: 4)] was followed quantitatively using the singlet oxygen luminescence technique and also, after continuous420–700 nm irradiation, by HPLC and other analysis of the isomeric product monohydroperoxides. The overall quantum yield of photooxidation (∼10-2) was shown to be consistent with the observed singlet oxygen quenching constants(2–12 times 104 dm3 mol-1 s-1) for the four esters studied and the singlet oxygen lifetime in methanol (τ∼ 9 μs). The isomer product distribution was interpreted in terms of a dual singlet oxygen and radical mechanism, the radical contribution increasing with sensitiser in the order ER = MB < HP ≪ RF, but also showing some dependence on substrate unsaturation. Evidence is presented for singlet oxygen quenching by MB and RF ( kO = 1.6 and 6.0 times 107 dm3 mol-1 s-1) and for the accelerated photobleaching of the dye sensitisers in the presence of the unsaturated esters.  相似文献

PHOTODYNAMIC INACTIVATION OF LYSOZYME BY EOSIN   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Abstract— It has been demonstrated that singlet oxygen is the major oxidizing entity in the photo-dynamic inactivation of hen egg white lysozyme by eosin, using D2O to enhance the solvent-induced decay lifetime, and azide ion as a specific scavenger. Two regimes of inactivation can be distinguished depending on whether the sensitizer is free or complexed to the enzyme. The kinetic analysis for free dye sensitization, based on photostationary measurements and inactivation quantum yields, indicates that at least 1 in 15 singlet oxygen interactions with lysozyme leads to loss of lytic activity. The direct attack of triplet eosin makes a lesser overall contribution in air-saturated solutions, where 1 in 4 reactions induces inactivation. Lysozyme binds 1 eosin molecule from pH 4 to 12, leading to almost total quenching of the tryptophyl residue fluorescence without inhibition of the enzymic activity. The inactivation quantum yields indicate that singlet oxygen generated from the bound dye is the inactivating agent, but the dominant attack takes place with the complexed fraction of lysozyme molecules. The tryptophyl residue loss is the same or smaller in changing from H2O to D2O despite the 5–10 times increase in quantum yield, indicating that singlet oxygen inactivates also by reacting with residues other than tryptophan. The photochemical and fluorescence results are consistent with the the identification of tryptophyl site 108 with the eosin binding site and a reaction target for singlet oxygen. In a re-examination of earlier work on eosin-sensitized photo-oxidation of I", it has been found that singlet oxygen is the oxidizing agent in aerobic solutions.  相似文献

An absorptive chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) was generated by the quenching of singlet oxygen by nitroxide radicals (TEMPO derivatives). The spin polarization decay time of the nitroxide (measured by time-resolved EPR) correlates with the lifetime of singlet oxygen (measured by singlet oxygen phosphorescence spectroscopy). In addition, a deuterium isotope effect on the spin polarization decay time was observed, a signature of singlet oxygen involvement. With use of isotope labeled nitroxides (15N, 14N), the relative spin polarization efficiencies of TEMPO, 4-oxo-TEMPO, and 4-hydroxy-TEMPO by singlet oxygen were determined. The relative spin polarization efficiencies (per quenching event) decrease in the order 4-hydroxy-TEMPO > TEMPO > 4-oxo-TEMPO, whereas an opposite trend was observed for the total quenching rate constants of singlet oxygen by the nitroxides where the order is 4-hydroxy-TEMPO < TEMPO < 4-oxo-TEMPO.  相似文献
