The influence of confinement in the supramolecular β-cyclodextrin nanocavity on the excited state torsional dynamics of the amyloid fibril sensor, Thioflavin-T, is explored using subpicosecond fluorescence up-conversion spectroscopy. In the presence of β-cyclodextrin, the emission intensity and the fluorescence lifetime of Thioflavin-T significantly increases, indicating the confinement effect of the nanocage on the photophysical behaviour of the dye. Detailed time-resolved fluorescence studies show an appreciable dynamic Stokes' shift for the dye in the β-cyclodextrin nanocavity. Analysis of the time-resolved area normalized emission spectra (TRANES) indicates the formation of an emissive TICT state. The rate of formation of the TICT state, as calculated from the time dependent changes in the peak frequency and the width of the emission spectra, is found to be substantially slower in the β-cyclodextrin nanocavity compared to that in bulk water. Present results indicate that ultrafast torsional motion in Thioflavin-T is significantly retarded due to confinement by the β-cyclodextrin nanocavity. 相似文献

A collaborative study was conducted on an inhibition-based protein-binding assay using the Biacore Q biosensor instrument and the Biacore Qflex Kit Vitamin B12 PI. The samples studied included infant formula, cereals, premixes, vitamin tablets, dietary supplements, and baby food. The collaborative study, which involved 11 laboratories, demonstrated that the assay showed an RSDr of 1.59-27.8 and HorRat values for reproducibility of 0.34-1.89 in samples with levels ranging from ppm to ppb. The assay studied is a label-free protein binding-based assay that uses the principle of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to measure the interaction between vitamin B12 and a specific binding protein. A Biacore Q biosensor uses this principle to detect binding directly at the surface of a sensor chip with a hydrophilic gold-dextran surface. The instrument passes a mixture of prepared sample extract and binding protein solution across a covalently immobilized vitamin B12 chip surface, and the response is given as free-binding protein as the mixture binds to the immobilized surface. This technique uses the specificity and robustness of the protein-ligand interaction to allow minimal sample preparation and a wide range of matrixes to be analyzed rapidly. The reagents and accessories needed to perform this assay are provided as the ready-to-use format "Qflex Kit Vitamin B12 PI." The method is intended for routine use in the quantitative determination of vitamin B12 (as cyanocobalamin) in a wide range of food products, dietary vitamin supplements, and multivitamin premixes. 相似文献
