However, brain metastasis in TNBC at early stages often lacks noticeable symptoms, making it challenging to detect. Near-infrared II (NIR-II) fluorescence microscopic imaging obtains long wavelength, which enables reduced scattering, high spatial resolution and minimal autofluorescence, it is also a favorable imaging method for tumor diagnosis. PbS@CdS quantum dots (QDs) are one of the popular NIR-II fluorescence nanoprobes for well brightness. In this study, NIR-II emissive PbS@CdS QDs were utilized and further encapsulated with thiol-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) (SH-PEG, MW = 5000) to form PbS@CdS@PEG QDs nanoparticles (NPs). The obtained PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs were then characterized and further studied in detail. The PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs had large absorption spectra, exhibited strong NIR-II fluorescence emission at approximately 1300nm, and possessed good NIR-II fluorescence properties. Then, the mice model of early-stage brain metastases of TNBC was established, and the PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs were injected into the tumor-bearing mice for NIR-II fluorescence microscopic bioimaging. The brain vessels and tumors of the living mice were detected with high spatial resolution under the NIR-II fluorescence microscopic imaging system with irradiation of 808nm laser. The tumor tissues were further restricted and prepared as thin slices. The NIR-II fluorescence signals were collected from the tumor slices with high spatial resolution and signal-to-background ratio (SBR). Thus, the PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs-assisted NIR-II fluorescence microscopic system can effectively achieve targeting brain metastases of TNBC imaging, offering a novel and promising approach for TNBC-specific diagnosis.展开更多

文摘Two novel lanthanide complexes,[Sm_(2)(BA)_(6)(4-OH-terpy)_(2)]·2H_(2)O·2EtOH(1)and[Pr_(2)(BA)_(6)(4-OH-terpy)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)]·HBA·H_(2)O(2),where HBA=benzoic acid,4-OH-terpy=4-hydroxy-2,2'∶6',2″-terpyridine,were successfully synthesized using ultrasonic dissolution and the conventional solution method with two mixed ligands HBA and 4-OH-terpy.During the synthesis,4-OH-terpy was involved in the reaction as a neutral ligand,while HBA,in its deprotonated form(BA-),coordinated with the lanthanide ions as an acidic ligand.The crystal structures of these two complexes were precisely determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.Elemental analysis,infrared and Raman spectroscopy,and powder X-ray diffraction techniques were also employed to further explore the physicochemical properties of the two complexes.The single-crystal X-ray diffraction data indicate that,despite their structural differences,both complexes belong to the triclinic crystal system P1 space group.The central lanthanide ions have the same coordination number but exhibit different coordination environments.To comprehensively evaluate the thermal stability of these two complexes,comprehensive tests including thermogravimetric analysis,differential thermogravimetric analysis,differential scanning calorimetry,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,and mass spectrometry were conducted.Meanwhile,an in-depth investigation was conducted into the 3D infrared stacked images and mass spectra of the gases emitted from the complexes.In addition,studies of the fluorescence properties of complex1 showed that it exhibited fluorescence emission matching the Sm^(3+)characteristic transition.

文摘We used the natural product chamomile as a carbon source to synthesize praseodymium(Pr) and nitrogen(N) co-doped biomass carbon dots(Pr/N-BCDs) with remarkable luminescence properties by one-step hydrothermal method.Compared with single N-doped BCDs(N-BCDs) and Pr-doped BCDs(Pr-BCDs),Pr/N-BCDs not only showed better fluorescence properties and stability but also achieved a significant increase in quantum yield of 12%.More importantly,under certain conditions,Pr/N-BCDs and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazide(2,4-DNPH) had significant fluorescence internal filtration effect(IFE) and dynamic quenching effect,and in the concentration range of0.50-20 μmol·L^(-1),the concentration of 2,4-DNPH had a good linear relationship with the fluorescence quenching signal,and the detection limit was as low as 2.1 nmol·L^(-1).
文摘In this editorial,we comment on the article by Li et al.We specifically focus on the novel use of multicolor near-infrared fluorescence imaging(MCFI)with indocyanine green in laparoscopic cholecystectomy,which is an innovative approach for enhancing biliary visualization during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.This study also highlighted the limitations of conventional single-color fluorescence imaging(SCFI),which relies solely on a green fluorescence signal,leading to challenges such as visual fatigue and difficulty in distinguishing biliary structures from background hepatic tissue.Given the complex anatomy of the biliary system and the challenges of visual fatigue encountered with SCFI,MCFI addresses these issues by enabling the differentiation of biliary structures by mapping the fluorescence intensity across a unique blue-to-purple color spectrum,thus improving the clarity of anatomical structures and reducing the visual strain for surgeons.We also focus specifically on the complications and cautious usage of indocyanine green in this context,as well as the advantages and disadvantages of MCFI and SCFI.Overall,MCFI represents a significant advancement in fluorescence-guided surgery,with the potential to become a standard imaging modality for safer and more effective laparoscopic procedures.

文摘Silver ion(Ag^(+))is a highly toxic metal ion,and its monitoring in water or food resources has become extraordinarily necessary within the scope of human health.In the light of the fact of Ag^(+)-induced folding structure of specific peptides,an unlabeled and highselectivity Ag^(+)assay is presented by means of intrinsic fluorescence of peptides.Under the quenching effect of gold nanoparticles(AuNPs),characteristic fluorescence of peptides could be considerably reduced by rapid modification.Along with the Ag adding,the fluorescence signals of peptide-AuNPs are largely enhanced by the behavior between peptides and Agt.This is basically involving the formation of 4-coordinated complexes,generating the changes of peptides in structure and fluorescence properties.Under this circumstance,the adverse influence of plenty of interfering ions is suppressed,including the toxic Hg^(2+),Pb^(2+).The results highlight that Ag ions could be selectively recognized as low as 2.4 nmol/L with a linear range of 5 to 800 nmol/L.In comparison with other programs,the given approach declares simplicity,sensitivity,and superior selectivity.Furthermore,the biosensor excels in the practical application in water samples(e.g.,lake,tap and drinking water)owing to its non-interference and on-site rapid determination.

文摘Calcium ions(Ca^(2+))and manganese ions(Mn^(2+))are essential for sustaining life activities and are key monitoring indicators in drinking water.Developing highly sensitive,selective,and portable detection methods for Ca^(2+)and Mn^(2+)is significant for water quality monitoring and human health.In this paper,blue fluorescent Ti3C2 MXene-based quantum dots(MQDs,λ_(em)=445 nm)are prepared using Ti_(3)C_(2)MXene as the precursor.Through the chelation effect of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid(EDTA),a blue and red dual-emission fluorescent probe,MQDs-EDTA-Eu^(3+)-DPA,was constructed.Herein,dipicolinic acid(DPA)acts as an absorbing ligand and significantly enhances the red fluorescence of europium ions(Eu^(3+))at 616 nm through the“antenna effect”.The blue fluorescence of MQDs serves as an internal reference signal.High concentrations of Ca^(2+)can quench the red fluorescence of Eu^(3+)-DPA;Mn^(2+)can be excited to emit purple fluorescence at 380 nm after coordinating with DPA,red fluorescence of Eu^(3+)-DPA serves as the internal reference signal.Based on the above two fluorescence intensity changes,ratiometric fluorescence detection methods for Ca^(2+)and Mn^(2+)are established.The fluorescence intensity ratio(IF_(616)/IF_(445))exhibits a linear relationship with Ca^(2+)in the range of 35-120μmol/L,with a detection limit of 5.98μmol/L.The fluorescence intensity ratio(IF_(380)/IF_(616))shows good linearity with Mn^(2+)in the range of 0-14μmol/L,with a detection limit of 28.6 nmol/L.This method was successfully applied to the quantitative analysis of Ca^(2+)and Mn^(2+)in commercially available mineral water(Nongfu Spring,Ganten,and Evergrande),with recovery rates of 80.6%-117%and relative standard deviations(RSD)of 0.76%-4.6%.Additionally,by preparing MQD-based fluorescent test strips,visual detections of Ca^(2+)and Mn^(2+)are achieved.This work demonstrates the application potential of MQDs in the field of visual fluorescence sensing of ions in water quality.
文摘A coordination polymer{[Cd(H_(2)dpa)(bpy)]·3H_(2)O}_(n)(Cd-CP)was designed and hydrothermal synthesized based on 4-(2,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)phthalic acid(H_(4)dpa),2,2'-bipyridine(bpy)and Cd(NO_(3))_(2)·4H_(2)O.The structure was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction,powder X-ray diffraction,elemental analysis,and infrared spectroscopy.Cd-CP belongs to the monoclinic crystal system with the P2_1/c space group and performs in a 1D double-chain structure.The adjacent double chains further form a 3D supramolecular network structure through hydrogen bonding.Thermogravimetric analysis shows that Cd-CP has good thermal stability.Fluorescence analysis showed that Cd-CP had good choosing selectively and was sensitive to metal ions(Fe^(3+)and Zn^(2+)),2,4,6-trinitrophenylhydrazine(TRI),and pyrimethanil(Pth).Interestingly,when Cd-CP was used for fluorescence detection of metal ions,it was found to have a fluorescence quenching effect on Fe^(3+)but had an obvious enhancement effect on Zn^(2+).Therefore,we designed an“on-off-on”logic gate.In addition,the mechanism of fluorescence sensing has been deeply explored.CCDC:2258625.

文摘Pure organic materials with ultralong room-temperature phosphorescence(RTP)and persistent luminescence in broad color gamut exhibit tremendous potential and broad application prospects due to their unique optical properties.This article proposes a simple strategy,polyatomic synergistic effect,to endow persistent luminescent materials with ultralong lifetime and broad color-tunability through polyatomic synergistic effect and non-traditional phosphorescence resonance energy transfer(PRET).By leveraging the polyatomic synergistic effect to enhance the intersystem crossing(ISC)in bibenzimidazole(BBI)derivatives and suppress the non-radiative transition process,ultralong persistent room-temperature phosphorescence has been successfully achieved after incorporating BBI-Cl-M into poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)to form a rigid matrix(BBI-Cl-M@PMMA).Specifically,the ester functionalized bibenzimidazole with modified chlorine on molecular skeleton(BBI-Cl-M)demonstrates a remarkable phosphorescent lifetime(τp)of up to 256.4 ms.In addition,the behaviors and mechanism of RTP via polyatomic synergistic effect have been further understood by theoretical calculation and single crystal analysis.Subsequently,utilizing BBI-Cl-M as the energy donor and Rhodamine B(RB)as the energy acceptor,persistent and multicolor organic afterglow covering from green to red has been realized successfully by simply regulating the doping composition and concentration of PRET systems.These RTP materials have also been applied in underwater afterglow emission and multilevel anti-counterfeiting technology successfully.

文摘Room-temperature phosphorescence(RTP)materials exhibiting long emission lifetimes have gained increasing attention owing to their potential applications in encryption,anti-counterfeiting,and sensing.However,most polymers exhibit a short RTP lifetime(<1 s)because of their unstable triplet excitons.Herein,a new strategy of polymer chain stabilized phosphorescence(PCSP),which yields a new kind of RTP polymers with an ultralong lifetime and a sensitive oxygen response,has been reported.The rigid polymer chains of poly(methyl mathacrylate)(PMMA)immobilize the emitter molecules through multiple interactions between them,giving rise to efficient RTP.Meanwhile,the loosely-packed amorphous polymer chains allow oxygen to diffuse inside,endowing the doped polymers with oxygen sensitivity.Flexible and transparent polymer films exhibited an impressive ultralong RTP lifetime of 2.57 s at room temperature in vacuum,which was among the best performance of PMMA.Intriguingly,their RTP was rapidly quenched in the presence of oxygen.Furthermore,RTP microparticles with a diameter of 1.63μm were synthesized using in situ dispersion polymerization technique.Finally,oxygen sensors for quick,visual,and quantitative oxygen detection were developed based on the RTP microparticles through phosphorescence lifetime and image analysis.With distinctive advantages such as an ultralong lifetime,oxygen sensitivity,ease of fabrication,and cost-effectiveness,PCSP opens a new avenue to sensitive materials for oxygen detection.

文摘Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive and often fatal disease, especially since the brain metastasis of TNBC has been a particularly severe manifestation. However, brain metastasis in TNBC at early stages often lacks noticeable symptoms, making it challenging to detect. Near-infrared II (NIR-II) fluorescence microscopic imaging obtains long wavelength, which enables reduced scattering, high spatial resolution and minimal autofluorescence, it is also a favorable imaging method for tumor diagnosis. PbS@CdS quantum dots (QDs) are one of the popular NIR-II fluorescence nanoprobes for well brightness. In this study, NIR-II emissive PbS@CdS QDs were utilized and further encapsulated with thiol-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) (SH-PEG, MW = 5000) to form PbS@CdS@PEG QDs nanoparticles (NPs). The obtained PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs were then characterized and further studied in detail. The PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs had large absorption spectra, exhibited strong NIR-II fluorescence emission at approximately 1300nm, and possessed good NIR-II fluorescence properties. Then, the mice model of early-stage brain metastases of TNBC was established, and the PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs were injected into the tumor-bearing mice for NIR-II fluorescence microscopic bioimaging. The brain vessels and tumors of the living mice were detected with high spatial resolution under the NIR-II fluorescence microscopic imaging system with irradiation of 808nm laser. The tumor tissues were further restricted and prepared as thin slices. The NIR-II fluorescence signals were collected from the tumor slices with high spatial resolution and signal-to-background ratio (SBR). Thus, the PbS@CdS@PEG QDs NPs-assisted NIR-II fluorescence microscopic system can effectively achieve targeting brain metastases of TNBC imaging, offering a novel and promising approach for TNBC-specific diagnosis.
文摘In the past decade,people have conducted extensive research on the synthesis and application properties of various functionalized pillararenes.Pillararenes show good application prospects in the field of sensors due to the rich host-vip recognition in their rigid electron-rich cavities.However,most reported pillararenes are functionalized by alkoxy modification,which results in poor charge transfer nature and weak fluorescence response.A π-conjugated charge-transfer system P5BN was obtained by introducing electron-donating triarylamine(Ar_(3)N)and electron-deficient triarylborane(Ar_(3)B)into pillar[5]arene skeleton,which significantly improved its luminescence behavior and was further used for fluorescence detection applications.The molecular structure showed that P5BN provided a good macrocyclic cavity to encapsulate amino acids molecules of suitable size.It was found that P5BN,as a fluorescent sensor,showed a highly sensitive and selective response to L-arginine(L-Arg),resulting in a significant enhancement of the fluorescence at 408 nm of P5BN with the lowest detection concentration being 2.21×10^(-8) mol/L.The recognition mechanism was demonstrated through experiments and DFT theoretical calculations.

文摘Rapid diagnosis of rice bacterial diseases is critical for early warning and precise management during their initial phases.The use of rapid nucleic acid detection on paper-based platforms is an innovative technique that offers simplicity,portability,and affordability.However,the temperature dependence of the amplification process and variations in paper device technologies hinder on-site detection of pathogens using paper-based platforms.

文摘Up to now,“Turn-on”fluorescence sensor exhibits promising potential toward the detection of heavy metal ions,anions,drugs,organic dyes,DNA,pesticides,and other amino acids due to their simple,quick detection,and high sensitivity and selectivity.Herein,a novel fluorescence method of detecting Cr^(3+)in an aqueous solution was described based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer between rhodamine B(Rh B)and gold nanoparticles(Au NPs).The fluorescence of Rh B solution could be obviously quenched(“off”state)with the presence of citrate-stabilized Au NPs.However,upon addition of Cr^(3+)to Au NPs@Rh B system,the fluorescence of Au NPs was recovered owing to the strong interaction between Cr^(3+)and the specific groups on the surface of citrate-stabilized Au NPs,which will lead to the aggregation of Au NPs(“on”state).At this point,the color of the reaction solution turned to black.Under optimal conditions,the limit of detection(LOD)for Cr^(3+)was 0.95 n M(signal-to-noise ratio,S/N=3)with a linear range of 0.164 n M to 3.270μM.Furthermore,the proposed method exhibits excellent performances,such as rapid analysis,high sensitivity,extraordinary selectivity,easy preparation,switch-on fluorescence response,and non-time consuming.

文摘Introduction Early cancer detection represents a critical evolution in healthcare,addressing a significant pain point in cancer treatment:the tendency for diagnoses to occur at advanced stages.Traditionally,many cancers are not identified until they have progressed to late stages,where treatment options become limited,less effective,and more costly.This late detection results in poorer prognoses,higher mortality rates,and increased healthcare costs.Without early detection tools like Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization(FISH),these challenges persist,leaving patients with fewer opportunities for successful outcomes.
