Fluorescence Emission Spectra of Calcofluor Stained Yeast Cell Suspensions: Heuristic Assessment of Basis Spectra for their Linear Unmixing

Fluorescence emission spectra of yeast cell suspensions stained with calcofluor have recently been identified as promising markers of variations in the quality of yeast cell wall. It is shown in this paper how the raw fluorescence spectra of calcofluor can be transformed to reliable spectral signatures of cell wall quality, which are independent of actual dye-to-cell concentrations of examined cell suspensions. Moreover, the presented approach makes it possible to assess basis fluorescence spectra that allows for the spectral unmixing of raw fluorescence spectra in terms of respective fluorescence contributions of calcofluor solvated in the suspension medium and bound to yeast cell walls.     

Membrane Dipole Potential as Measured by Ratiometric 3-Hydroxyflavone Fluorescence Probes: Accounting for Hydration Effects

We previously applied the electrochromic modulation of excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer (ESIPT) reaction for the design of novel 3-hydroxyflavone (3-HF) derivatives as fluorescent probes for measuring the dipole potential, Ψ_D, in lipid bilayers (Klymchenko et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 2003, 100, 11219). In the present work, this method was revisited to take into account the influence of the bilayer hydration on the emission ratiometric response of 3-HF probes. For this reason, it was necessary to deconvolute the whole fluorescence spectra into three bands corresponding to the non H-bonded forms, normal N^* and tautomer T^* forms, both participating to the ESIPT reaction, and to the H-bonded H–N^* form, excluded from this reaction. This allowed us to determine the pure N^*/T^* intensity ratio, without any contribution from the H–N^* form emission depending essentially on the bilayer hydration. This new approach allowed us to confirm the correlation we obtained between the response of 3-HF probes on dipole potential modifications and the corresponding response of the reference fluorescent probe di-8-ANEPPS, thus further confirming the potency of 3-HF probes as excellent emission ratiometric probes to measure dipole potential in lipid membranes.

Fluorescence Spectra of Eu3+ and Tb3+ Doped Na6 Ln (BO3)3 (Ln = La,Gd, Y) Phosphors

The fluorescence properties of Eu^{3 +} and Tb³⁺ doped Na₆La(BO₃)₃, Na₆Gd(BO₃)₃, Na₆Y(BO₃)₃, Na₆(Gd, Y) (BO₃)₃ powder phosphors are reported. These phosphors display fluorescent RED and GREEN colours when droped with Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ ions, respectively. The best fluorescence performance was consistantly observed from the Na-Gd based hosts. The photoluminescence spectra were analysed by evaluating colour coordinates, relative intensity ratios, and stimulated emission cross-sections.     

Methods for the Numerical Calculation of the Plasma Potential from Measured Langmuir Probe Characteristics

In a previous paper the results of the Langmuir probe experiment carried out on board of two INTERKOSMOS satellites have been described. The experiences have shown that the usage of high quality algorithms for analyzing the current-voltage-characteristics is necessary to yield real physical parameters. The key problem is the determination of the plasma potential. This paper reviews the different methods to determine the plasma potential especially under the circumstances of computer application. The test of the well developed methods shows, that for the evaluation of the applied methods a number of different factors, discussed in the following sections of this paper, has to be taken into account. The used test data are model values or real measurements obtained by the satellite missions IK-10, IK-18 and BULGARIA-1300. The computer procedures have been realized as FORTRAN-subroutines for the BESM 6 and ES 1040.     

晶体Zn(antipyrine)2(NO3)2:VO2+的EPR谱及光吸收谱的理论研究

由于硝酸钒锌二安替比林晶体[Zn(antipyrine)2(NO3)2:VO2 ]中配体O2-的自旋-轨道耦合参量ζ0p≈150 cm-1与中心过渡族3d1离子V4 的ζ0d≈248 cm-1相差不太大,故配体的自旋-轨道耦合参量ζ0p对电子顺磁共振(EPR)谱和光吸收谱的贡献必须考虑.采用双自旋-轨道耦合参量模型和相关的晶体场能级公式,计算了Zn(antipyrine)2(NO3)2:VO2 晶体的EPR谱和光吸收谱,所得理论结果与实验发现很好符合;确定了该晶体的局域对称结构沿C4轴的四角畸变约为0.45 nm;计算发现,较大的κ值说明VO2 中未配对的s电子对超精细结构常数有较大的贡献.并对上述这些结果的合理性进行了讨论.

城市空气质量监测系统(DOAS)谱线漂移问题及解决方法

城市空气质量监测系统中差分光学吸收光谱法的光学部分受到外界影响(温度、光纤位置等),或是氙灯自身的变化,都会引起测量谱线的漂移。如果灯信号谱与大气测量信号谱谱线漂移不一致而产生谱线相对偏移,将直接影响测量结果的准确性。因此,在运用DOAS方法进行大气痕量气体污染物浓度反演时,必须对大气测量信号谱和灯信号谱进行波长匹配。文章通过对氙灯自身发射光谱特殊结构的研究,提出了利用氙灯特征发射峰,通过对两个信号光谱进行最小二乘拟合,达到谱线校正的方法。实验结果证明,这种方法可以有效地减小谱线相对偏移对大气痕量气体污染物浓度反演结果的影响。

This research note reports the fluorescence properties of Eu³⁺-doped in three sets of (Y-Zn, La-Zn and Gd-Zn) oxy fluoride powder phosphors. on excitation with a UV-source, these phosphors have displayed orangish-red color and for which the chromaticity coordinates ([Xbar], [Ybar] have been computed. the relative fluorescence intensity ratios (R) for the different measured emission transitions have been evaluated in order to examine the effect of substitution of zinc ions in the host matrix on the fluorescence behavior.

Pyrene Fluorescence as a Probe for the Monitoring of Polymerization Processes: Simultaneous DSC and Fluorescence Study

The polymerization of cyclohexylmethacrylate was monitored, over a wide temperature range, by simultaneous differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and fluorimetry (FL); the equipment for both being optically coupled. Pyrene was used as a fluorescent probe. There was excellent agreement between the exothermic peak time obtained by DSC and the time at which the maximum gradient was obtained in the fluorescence intensity–time curves, but only for temperatures above 60°C, Activation energies for the gel effect onset were obtained for both, the conversion–time and intensity–time curves being concordant except for data at low temperatures, below 60°C. It was concluded that vitrification occurs at temperatures below 60°C and its presence was demonstrated by fluorimetry, by means of the conversion change associated with the fluorescence intensity jump_(off-on).

Short-Range Characterization of the MeAr (Me=Zn, Cd) Ground-State Potentials from Fluorescence Spectra

First-time observed D1(¹Π)_v′=10→X0⁺(¹Σ) fluorescence in ZnAr, and A0⁺(³Π)_v′=4→X0⁺ and D1(¹Π)_v′=7,8→X0⁺ fluorescence in CdAr van der Waals (vdW) molecules were produced in a continuous supersonic molecular beam crossed with a pulsed dye-laser beam, following excitation of single vibronic levels. The dispersed fluorescence spectra displayed characteristic Condon internal diffraction (CID) patterns consisting of bound-free, reflection type, continuous spectra, and, in certain cases, bound-bound discrete features. An analysis of the A0⁺→X0⁺ and D1→X0⁺ bound-bound spectra indicates that Morse functions are adequate representations of the X0⁺ potential energy (PE) curves below their dissociation limits. In simulation of the A0⁺→X0⁺ and D1→X0⁺ bound-free spectra, the Morse, Lennard-Jones L-J(n−6), and Maitland-Smith M-S(n₀,n₁) functions were tested, and the respective M-S(11.3, 9.0) and M-S(10.6, 7.0) potentials were found to be good representations for the repulsive walls of the X0⁺ PE curves of ZnAr and CdAr, respectively, over the short range, R=2.45-4.38 Å (ZnAr) and R=2.85-4.31 Å (CdAr), of internuclear separations.
