Determination of trace glucose and forecast of human diseases by affinity adsorption solid substrate-room temperature phosphorimetry based on triticum vulgaris lectin labeled with dendrimers-porphyrin dual luminescence molecule

In this paper, 3.5-generation polyamidoamine dendrimers (3.5G-D)-porphyrin (P) dual luminescence molecule (3.5G-D-P) was developed as a new phosphorescence-labeling reagent. Meanwhile, the room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) characteristics of 3.5G-D-P and its product of labeling triticum vulgaris lectin (WGA) on the surface of polyamide membrane (PAM) were studied. Results showed that in the presence of heavy atom perturber LiAc, 3.5G-D and P of 3.5G-D-P molecule could emit strong and stable RTP on the PAM. And the Tween-80 would spike thoroughly the phosphorescence signal of 3.5G-D and P; moreover, specific affinity absorption (AA) reaction between the products (Tween-80-3.5G-D-P-WGA) of WGA labeled with Tween-80-3.5G-D-P and glucose (G) was carried out. The products of the AA reaction could keep good RTP characteristics of 3.5G-D and P dual luminescence molecule, and the DeltaI(p) was linear correlation to the content of G. According to the facts above, a new method of affinity adsorption solid substrate-room temperature phosphorimetry (AA-SS-RTP) for the determination of trace G was established, basing on WGA labeled with Tween-80-3.5G-D-P dual luminescence molecule. The detection limit of this method was 0.13fgspot(-1) (1.7x10(-12)moll(-1), 3.5G-D) and 0.14fgspot(-1) (2.2x10(-12)moll(-1), P). Determination of G in human serum using excitation/emission wavelength of either 3.5G-D or P, the result was coincided with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Not only the sensitivity and accuracy of this method were higher, but also the flexibility of AA-SS-RTP was obviously improved and the applicability was wider.

为了提高胆碱传感器的灵敏度和抗干扰性,以纳米碳管修饰铂电极为基础电极,采用溶胶-凝胶法固定胆碱氧化酶(ChOx),构建了电流型胆碱检测生物传感器,对纳米碳管修饰电极的电化学特征进行分析,得知纳米碳管的引入不仅使电极对H2O2的催化电流增大,同时降低了电催化所需的恒定电位。讨论了缓冲液介质、pH值、酶负载量对传感器响应的影响。研究表明,所制备的传感器在pH 7.2、电位为0.15V条件下对氯化胆碱的线性响应范围为5.0×10-6~1.0×10-4mol/L;检出限为5.0×10-7mol/L;灵敏度为9.48μA/mmol/L。传感器的稳定性好,经过1个月,仍可保持初始电流的85%。抗干扰能力有很大提高。用于人体血清中的胆碱浓度测定,结果令人满意。     

CEC with tris(2,2′‐bipyridyl) ruthenium(II) electrochemiluminescent detection

For the first time, CEC was coupled with tris(2,2‐bipyridyl) ruthenium(II) ( Ru(bpy) electrochemiluminescence detection. Efficient CEC separations of proline, putrescine, spermidine and spermine were achieved when the pH of the mobile phase is in the range of 3.5–7.0. The optimum mobile phase for CEC separation is much less acidic than that for CZE separation, which matches better with the optimum pH for Ru(bpy) electrochemiluminescence detection and dramatically shortens the analysis time because of larger EOF at higher pH. The time for CEC separation of the polyamines is less than 12.5 min, which is about half as much as the time needed for CZE. The detection limits were 1.7, 0.2, and 0.2 μM for putrescine, spermidine, and spermine, respectively. The RSD of retention time and peak height of these polyamines were less than 0.85 and 6.1%, respectively. The column showed good long‐term stability, and the RSD of retention time is below 5% for 150 runs over one‐month use. The method was successfully used for the determination of polyamines in urine samples.     

Poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐based comb‐type grafted hydrogel with rapid response to blood glucose concentration change at physiological temperature

A new type of glucose‐responsive hydrogel with rapid response to blood glucose concentration change at physiological temperature has been successfully developed. The polymeric hydrogel contains phenylboronic acid (PBA) groups as glucose sensors and thermo‐responsive poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) groups as actuators. The response rate of the hydrogel to environmental glucose concentration change was significantly enhanced by introducing grafted poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide‐co‐3‐acrylamidophenylboronic acid) [poly(NIPAM‐co‐AAPBA)] side chains onto crosslinked poly(NIPAM‐co‐AAPBA) networks for the first time. The synthesized comb‐type grafted poly(NIPAM‐co‐AAPBA) hydrogels showed satisfactory equilibrium glucose‐responsive properties, and exhibited much faster response rate to glucose concentration change than normal type crosslinked poly(NIPAM‐co‐AAPBA) hydrogels at physiological temperature. Such glucose‐responsive hydrogels with rapid response rate are highly attractive in the fields of developing glucose‐responsive sensors and self‐regulated drug delivery systems.

Aggregation-Induced Emission by Molecular Design: A Route to High-Performance Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells

The emission efficiency of organic semiconductors (OSCs) often suffers from aggregation caused quenching (ACQ). An elegant solution is aggregation-induced emission (AIE), which constitutes the design of the OSC so that its morphology inhibits quenching π–π interactions and non-radiative motional deactivation. The light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) can be sustainably fabricated, but its function depends on motion of bulky ions in proximity of the OSC. It is therefore questionable whether the AIE morphology can be retained during LEC operation. Here, we synthesize two structurally similar OSCs, which are distinguished by that 1 features ACQ while 2 delivers AIE. Interestingly, we find that the AIE-LEC significantly outperforms the ACQ-LEC. We rationalize our finding by showing that the AIE morphology remains intact during LEC operation, and that it can feature appropriately sized free-volume voids for facile ion transport and suppressed non-radiative excitonic deactivation.     

Enabling the Operation of Highly Compatible LiI-3-Hydroxypropionitrile Small-Molecule Solid-State Electrolytes in Lithium Metal Batteries via Stepped-Amorphization Strategy

Integrating the advantages of both inorganic ceramic and organic polymer solid-state electrolytes, small-molecule solid-state electrolytes represented by LiI-3-hydroxypropionitrile (LiI-HPN) inorganic–organic hybrid systems possess good interfacial compatibility and high modulus. However, their lack of intrinsic Li⁺ conduction ability hinders potential application in lithium metal batteries until now, despite containing LiI phase composition. Herein, inspired by evolution tendency of ionic conduction behaviors together with first-principles molecular dynamics simulations, we propose a stepped-amorphization strategy to break the Li⁺ conduction bottleneck of LiI-HPN. It involves three progressive steps of composition (LiI-content increasing), time (long-time standing), and temperature (high-temperature melting) regulations, to essentially construct a small-molecule-based composite solid-state electrolyte with intensified amorphous degree, which realizes efficient conversion from an I⁻ to Li⁺ conductor and improved conductivity. As a proof, the stepped-optimized LiI-HPN is successfully operated in lithium metal batteries cooperated with Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ cathode to deliver considerable compatibility and stability over 250 cycles. This work not only clarifies the ionic conduction mechanisms of LiI-HPN inorganic–organic hybrid systems, but also provides a reasonable strategy to broaden the application scenarios of highly compatible small-molecule solid-state electrolytes.     

Ruthenium-Catalyzed Activation of Nonpolar C−C Bonds via π-Coordination-Enabled Aromatization

Activation of C−C bonds allows editing of molecular skeletons, but methods for selective activation of nonpolar C−C bonds in the absence of a chelation effect or a driving force derived from opening of a strained ring are scarce. Herein, we report a method for ruthenium-catalyzed activation of nonpolar C−C bonds of pro-aromatic compounds by means of π-coordination-enabled aromatization. This method was effective for cleavage of C−C(alkyl) and C−C(aryl) bonds and for ring-opening of spirocyclic compounds, providing an array of benzene-ring-containing products. The isolation of a methyl ruthenium complex intermediate supports a mechanism involving ruthenium-mediated C−C bond cleavage.     

Synthesis,Subcellular Localization and Anticancer Mechanism Studies of Unsymmetrical Iridium(III) Complexes

Two novel unsymmetrical Ir(III) complexes [Ir(ppy)₂(N N)Cl₂] (N N=2-(pyrazin-2-yl)naphtha[1,2-e][1,2,4]triazine, Ir1 ; 2-(pyrazin-2-yl)-4b,4b’-dihydroaceanthryleno[1,2-e][1,2,4]triazine, Ir2 ) were developed as chemotherapy agents. Ir1 was mainly located in mitochondria. In contrast, Ir2 accumulated in mitochondria but subsequently migrated to the nucleus. Ir1 and Ir2 showed cytotoxicity toward cancerous cells, especially the cisplatin-resistant ones, indicating their ability to overcome cisplatin resistance. Although both Ir1 and Ir2 disrupted mitochondrial metabolism, they showed different cell death mechanisms. Ir1 induced mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in cisplatin-resistant A549R cells. Ir2 was demonstrated to cause PARP-1 activated necroptosis in A549R cells. This study provides an experimental basis for the rational design of metal-based chemotherapeutic drugs.
