7-Hydroxy-4-methyl-8-(4′-methylpiperazine-1′-yl)methyl coumarin: An efficient probe for fluorescence resonance energy transfer to a bioactive indoloquinolizine system

Solvatochromic effects on the fluorescence behavior of 7-hydroxy-4-methyl-8-(4′-methyl-piperazine-1′ yl)methylcoumarin (HMMC) was studied in different solvents. The fluorescence of HMMC was found to be highly sensitive to both the polarity and the protic character of the solvent. Exploiting the polarity-sensitive fluorescence property of HMMC, its excited-state dipole moment has been determined. Fluorescence (Förster) resonance energy transfer (FRET) process from HMMC to a potent bioactive molecule 3-acetyl-4-oxo-6,7-dihydro-12 H indolo-[2,3-a] quinolizine (AODIQ) was studied. From the determined K_SV and R₀ values, it is argued that a long-range dipole-dipole interaction is operating for the energy transfer mechanism. The energy transfer efficiency (E) and the distance between the acceptor and the donor (r₀) have been determined.     

X射线荧光光谱检测多层薄膜样品的增强效应研究

研究了X射线荧光光谱检测多层薄膜样品的增强效应。根据多层膜中的X荧光强度理论计算公式编写了计算机程序,并计算了Zn/Fe和Fe/Zn双层膜样品中不同薄膜厚度时Fe Kα的一次荧光强度、二次荧光强度、二次荧光与一次荧光强度比以及二次荧光在总荧光强度中比例。研究发现,在多层膜样品的X射线荧光分析中,激发条件不变的情况下,元素谱线的一次荧光相对强度、二次荧光相对强度和二次荧光在总荧光强度中所占比例都随薄膜厚度及位置的变化而变化。当Fe和Zn层厚度相同时,随厚度的变化,对于Fe/Zn样品,Fe Kα二次荧光强度占总荧光强度最高为9％,而对于Zn/Fe样品这一比例最高可达35％。

Fluorescence Study of Dehydroabietic Acid-Based Bipolar Arylamine-Quinoxalines

The absorption and fluorescence spectra, lifetimes and quantum yields of a series of triarylaminequinoxaline bipolar compounds, with and without the bulky dehydroabietic acid group, have been studied in toluene solution. This bulky group is introduced to improve solubility and thermal properties of these systems. It is shown that this does not affect their spectral or photophysical behavior. The compounds show relatively strong fluorescence, with the emission maximum strongly dependent upon the substituents present. Oxidation potentials have also been determined in acetonitrile solution, and again indicate that introduction of the resin acid moiety has no effect on these properties.     

Preparation and Photophysics of 2-(1-Pyrenyl)acrylic Acid and Its Methyl and 2′,2′,6′,6′-Tetramethyl-4′-Piperidyl Esters

Novel probes represented connection of pyrene as chromophore and sterically hindered amine stabilizers (HAS) in the form of esters of 2-(1-pyrenyl)acrylic acid were synthesized. HAS was in the form of parent amine (PAP) as well as stable nitroxyl radical form (PAP-NO^.). Photophysics of these probes were compared with their precursor as 2-(1-pyrenyl)acrylic acid (PAA) and its methyl ester (PAM). The fluorescence spectrum of PAA strongly depends on the acidity of the solution. The spectrum in neutral methanol indicates that it originates from the anionic form –COO⁻. Changes of acidity or basicity of methanol solution resulted in the changes of shape, position as well as the intensity of fluorescence band. This is due to the presence of protolytic equilibria, either in the ground state or in the singlet excited state, leading to the formation of molecular form –COOH and the cationic form –COOH₂⁺. The ester analogues did not show any changes in various pH conditions. Fluorescence of all probes depends on the polarity of solvents and the presence of oxygen. Intermolecular quenching was studied with external quenchers TEMPO and oxygen and the data were compared with the intramolecular quenching using 1′-oxo-2′,2′,6′,6′-tetramethyl-4′-piperidinyl-2-(1-pyrenyl)acrylate (PAP-NO^.).

Specificity of Cyanine Dye L-21 Aggregation in Solutions with Nucleic Acids

Optical spectroscopy experiments were used to study the features of cyanine dye 3,3′-dimethyl-9-(2-thienyl)-thiacarbocyanine iodide (L-21) aggregation in binary solutions DMF:Tris–HCl buffer (pH = 8) containing nucleic acids (DNA or RNA). The appearance of absorption and luminescence bands associated with J-aggregates and dimers that are formed within the minor groove of DNA has been observed. The model of L-21 J-aggregate structure is proposed. It has been found that dimers are the building blocks of L-21 J-aggregates. Disorientation in dimers caused by the minor groove curvature is reason of observation of Davydov splitting in absorption spectrum of L-21 J-aggregates. In the solution containing DNA the absorption and luminescence bands of L-21 J-aggregates exhibit the specific properties that allows the dye L-21 to be used as a fluorescent probe for DNA detection.     

Simultaneous two color image capture for sub-diffraction localization fluorescence microscopy

A sub-diffraction limit fluorescence localization microscope was constructed using a standard cooled 1.4 mega-pixel fluorescence charge-coupled device (CCD) camera to simultaneously resolve closely adjacent paired quantum dots on a flat surface with emissions of 540 and 630 nm. The images of the overlapping Airy discs were analyzed to determine the center of the point spread function after noise reduction using Fourier transformation analysis. The Cartesian coordinates of the centers of the point spread functions were compared in serial images. Histograms constructed from serial images fit well to Gaussian functions for resolving two quantum dots separated by as little as 10 nm in the x–y coordinates. Statistical analysis of multiple pairs validated discrimination of inter-fluorophore distances that vary by 10 nm. The method is simple and developed for x–y resolution of dilute fluorophores on a flat surface, not serial z sectioning.
