In contrast to conventional NIR-I window excitation (808nm/980nm), FLI with NIR-II window excitation (1064nm/other wavelength beyond 1000nm) can afford deeper tissue penetration depth with high clarity due to the merits of suppressed photon scattering and diminished autofluorescence. In this review, we have summarized NIR-II window excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores recently developed. The characteristics of these fluorophores such as chemical structures and photophysical properties have also been critically discussed. Furthermore, the latest development of noninvasive in vivo FLI with NIR-II excitation was highlighted. The ideal imaging results emphasized the importance of NIR-II excitation of these fluorophores in enabling deep tissue penetration and high-resolution imaging. Finally, a perspective on the challenges and prospects of NIR-II excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores was also discussed. We expected this review will be served as a source of inspiration for researchers, stimulating the creation of novel NIR-II excitable fluorophores and fostering the development of bioimaging applications.展开更多

文摘Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease with multi-system damage and autoimmune features.The main clinical manifestations of RA include joint pain,swelling,and stiffness,and RA may lead to joint deformity and dysfunction in severe cases.The pathologic development of RA involves complex interactions of multiple biomarkers,and detecting a single biomarker may produce falsepositive results due to other confounding factors.Therefore,fluorescent probes that can detect multiple biomarkers simultaneously are crucial for precise RA diagnosis.Peroxynitrite(ONOO^(-)) and viscosity are inflammation-related factors in cells.In this study,we developed a dual responsive near-infrared fluorescent probe,YLS,for ONOO^(-) and viscosity.The probe features dual-channel turn-on fluorescence responses at 625 and 760 nm upon the presence of ONOO^(-) and viscosity,respectively.Supported by YLS,we found that during RA pathology,lymphocyte infiltration not only increases the concentration of proteins in the joint fluid resulting in elevated viscosity;at the same time,the overproduction of ONOO^(-) exacerbates oxidative stress and inflammatory responses.This multiparameter assay is expected to improve the diagnostic accuracy of the early stages of RA,thus providing a scientific basis for early intervention and personalized treatment.

文摘Plants play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity.However,plant health is easily affected by environmental stresses.Hence,the rapid and precise monitoring of plant health is crucial for global food security and ecological balance.Currently,traditional detection strategies for monitoring plant health mainly rely on expensive equipment and complex operational procedures,which limit their widespread application.Fortunately,near-infrared(NIR)fluorescence and surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)techniques have been recently highlighted in plants.NIR fluorescence imaging holds the advantages of being non-invasive,high-resolution and real-time,which is suitable for rapid screening in large-scale scenarios.While SERS enables highly sensitive and specific detection of trace chemical substances within plant tissues.Therefore,the complementarity of NIR fluorescence and SERS modalities can provide more comprehensive and accurate information for plant disease diagnosis and growth status monitoring.This article summarizes these two modalities in plant applications,and discusses the advantages of multimodal NIR fluorescence/SERS for a better understanding of a plant’s response to stress,thereby improving the accuracy and sensitivity of detection.

文摘The fluorescence imaging (FLI) in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700nm) has attracted considerable attention in the past decade. In contrast to conventional NIR-I window excitation (808nm/980nm), FLI with NIR-II window excitation (1064nm/other wavelength beyond 1000nm) can afford deeper tissue penetration depth with high clarity due to the merits of suppressed photon scattering and diminished autofluorescence. In this review, we have summarized NIR-II window excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores recently developed. The characteristics of these fluorophores such as chemical structures and photophysical properties have also been critically discussed. Furthermore, the latest development of noninvasive in vivo FLI with NIR-II excitation was highlighted. The ideal imaging results emphasized the importance of NIR-II excitation of these fluorophores in enabling deep tissue penetration and high-resolution imaging. Finally, a perspective on the challenges and prospects of NIR-II excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores was also discussed. We expected this review will be served as a source of inspiration for researchers, stimulating the creation of novel NIR-II excitable fluorophores and fostering the development of bioimaging applications.

文摘Lake Baiyangdian is one of China’s largest macrophyte-derived lakes,facing severe challenges related to water quality maintenance and eutrophication prevention.Dissolved organic matter(DOM)was a huge carbon pool and its abundance,property,and transformation played important roles in the biogeochemical cycle and energy flow in lake ecosystems.In this study,Lake Baiyangdian was divided into four distinct areas:Unartificial Area(UA),Village Area(VA),Tourism Area(TA),and Breeding Area(BA).We examined the diversity of DOM properties and sources across these functional areas.Our findings reveal that DOM in this lake is predominantly composed of protein-like substances,as determined by excitation-emission matrix and parallel factor analysis(EEM-PARAFAC).Notably,the exogenous tyrosine-like component C1 showed a stronger presence in VA and BA compared to UA and TA.Ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry(FT-ICR MS)unveiled a similar DOM molecular composition pattern across different functional areas due to the high relative abundances of lignan compounds,suggesting that macrophytes significantly influence the material structure of DOM.DOM properties exhibited specific associations with water quality indicators in various functional areas,as indicated by the Mantel test.The connections between DOM properties and NO_(3)-N andNH3-Nwere more pronounced in VA and BA than in UA and TA.Our results underscore the viability of using DOM as an indicator for more precise and scientific water quality management.

文摘Coating microdefects and localized corrosion in coating/metal system are inevitable,accelerating the degradation of metal infrastructure.Early evaluating coating microdefects and detecting corrosion sites are urgent yet remain challenge to achieve.Herein,we propose a robust,universal and efficient fluorescence-based strategy for hierarchical warning of coating damage and metal corrosion by introducing the concepts of damage-induced fluorescence enhancement effect(DIE)and ionic-recognition induced quenching effect(RIQ).The coatings with dualresponsiveness for coating defect and steel corrosion are constructed by incorporating synthesized nanoprobes composed of metal organic frameworks(Ni–Zn-MOFs)loaded with Rhodamine B(RhB@MOFs).The initial damage to the coating causes an immediate intensification of fluorescence,while the specific ionic-recognition characteristic of RhB with Fe3t results in an evident fluorescence quenching,enabling the detection of coating damage and corrosion.Importantly,this nanoprobes are insensitive to the coating matrix and exhibit stable corrosion warning capability across various coating systems.Meanwhile,electrochemical investigations indicate that the impedance values of RM/EP maintain above 10^(8)Ωcm^(2)even after 60 days of immersion.Therefore,the incorporation of fluorescent nanoprobes greatly inhibits the intrusion of electrolytes into polymer and improves the corrosion protection performance of the coating.This powerful strategy towards dual-level damage warning provides insights for the development of long-term smart protective materials.

文摘Thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)materials driven by a through-space charge transfer(TSCT)mechanism have garnered wide interest.However,access of TSCT-TADF molecules with longwavelength emission remains a formidable challenge.In this study,we introduce a novel V-type DA-D-A’emitter,Trz-mCzCbCz,by using a carborane scaffold.This design strategically incorporates carbazole(Cz)and 2,4,6-triphenyl-1,3,5-triazine(Trz)as donor and acceptor moieties,respectively.Theoretical calculations alongside experimental validations affirm the typical TSCT-TADF characteristics of this luminogen.Owing to the unique structural and electronic attributes of carboranes,Trz-mCzCbCz exhibits an orange-red emission,markedly diverging from the traditional blue-to-green emissions observed in classical Cz and Trz-based TADF molecules.Moreover,bright emission in aggregates was observed for Trz-mCzCbCz with absolute photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)of up to 88.8%.As such,we have successfully fabricated five organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)by utilizing Trz-mCzCbCz as the emitting layer.It is important to note that both the reverse intersystem crossing process and the TADF properties are profoundly influenced by host materials.The fabricated OLED devices reached a maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE)of 12.7%,with an emission peak at 592 nm.This represents the highest recorded efficiency for TSCT-TADF OLEDs employing carborane derivatives as emitting layers.
文摘In this study,a self-calibrating near-infrared fluorescence probe was designed and synthesized based on the dual-fluorophore strategy utilizing methylene blue and coumarin.The probe utilized methylene blue(emission spectrum range:640-740 nm)and coumarin fluorophore(emission spectrum range:440-600 nm)as signal output units,thereby achieving effective spectral separation and highly selective detection of HClO.Under physiological pH conditions,HClO triggers an oxidation-cleavage reaction,releasing methylene blue and coumarin,which emit distinct red and green fluorescence,respectively.This dual-emission feature enabled rapid HClO detection with two-channel detection limits of 25.13 nmol·L^(-1)(green channel)and 31.55 nmol·L^(-1)(red channel).Furthermore,in cell imaging experiments,this probe demonstrated excellent cell membrane permeability and low cytotoxicity,successfully enabling the monitoring of both endogenous and exogenous HClO in living cells.By incorporating a twochannel self-calibration system,the probe effectively mitigated signal variations caused by instrumental or environmental interference,substantially improving detection sensitivity and reliability.
文摘The abnormal metabolic activity of the tumor can increase the oxygen consumption in tumor cells,and the poor blood perfusion often happens in tumor regions as well,which are the main reasons that result in a hypoxic situation in the tumor.A fluorescence probe,AQD,with selective response toward hypoxia was designed for the detection of hypoxic tumor cells,which was obtained by the covalent connection of a large planar conjugated fluorophore with good fluorescence stability and a N,N-dimethylaniline moiety via the azo bond.The introduction of the azo bond in AQD caused significant fluorescence emission quenching,and the probe was reduced under hypoxic conditions to release the fluorophore via breaking the azo bond,resulting in the gradual recovery of fluorescence emission.Probe AQD exhibited a remarkable fluorescence response in hypoxic conditions,high selectivity,and good biocompatibility,which was successfully used for the imaging of hypoxic tumor cells and realized the detection of hypoxic A549 cells.

文摘Fluorescence lateral flow immunoassay(LFA)has emerged as a powerful tool for rapid screening of various biomarkers owing to its simplicity,sensitivity and flexibility.It is noteworthy that fluorescent probe mainly determines the analytical performance of LFA.Due to the emission and excitation wavelengths are located in the visible region,most fluorophores are inevitably subject to light scattering and background autofluorescence.Herein,we reported a novel LFA sensor based on the second near-infrared(NIR-Ⅱ)fluorescent probe with excellent anti-interference capability.The designed NIR-Ⅱprobe was the Nd^(3+)and Yb^(3+)doped rare earth nanoparticles(RENPs)by employing Nd^(3+)as energy donor and Yb^(3+)as energy acceptor,which of the donor-acceptor energy transfer(ET)efficiency reached up to 80.7%.Meanwhile,relying on the convenient and effective encapsulation strategy of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA)microspheres to RENPs,the surface functionalized NIR-Ⅱprobe(RE@PLGA)was obtained for subsequent bioconjugation.Benefiting from the optical advantages of NIR-Ⅱprobe,this proposed NIR-ⅡLFA displayed a good linear relationship ranging from 7 ng/mL to 200 ng/mL for the detection ofα-fetoprotein(AFP),an important biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).The limit of detection(LOD)was determined as low as 3.0 ng/m L,which was of 8.3 times lower than clinical cutoff value.It is promising that LFA sensor based on this efficient RENPs probe provides new opportunities for high sensitive detection of various biomarkers in biological samples.

文摘Fluorescence imaging in the second near-infrared window(NIR-II,900-1880 nm)offers high signalto-background ratio(SBR),enhanced definition,and superior tissue penetration,making it ideal for real-time surgical navigation.However,with single-channel imaging,surgeons must frequently switch between the surgi⁃cal field and the NIR-II images on the monitor.To address this,a coaxial dual-channel imaging system that com⁃bines visible light and 1100 nm longpass(1100LP)fluorescence was developed.The system features a custom⁃ized coaxial dual-channel lens with optimized distortion,achieving precise alignment with an error of less than±0.15 mm.Additionally,the shared focusing mechanism simplifies operation.Using FDA-approved indocya⁃nine green(ICG),the system was successfully applied in dual-channel guided rat lymph node excision,and blood supply assessment of reconstructed human flap.This approach enhances surgical precision,improves opera⁃tional efficiency,and provides a valuable reference for further clinical translation of NIR-II fluorescence imaging.

文摘The electrocatalytic nitrogen oxidation reaction(NOR)is a sustainable approach for converting N_(2)to NO_(3)^(-)under mild conditions.However,it still faces challenges including inefficient N_(2)absorption/activation and oxygen evolution competition,sluggish kinetics,low Faradaic efficiency,and limited nitrate yields.In this work,a novel two-dimensional(2D)layered MOF Mn-BCPPy(H_(2)BCPPy=3,5-di(4'-carboxyphenyl)pyridine)has been successfully synthesized.The framework is composed of a rod-manganese motifs and possesses abundant active sites including open metal sites(OMSs)and Lewis base sites(LBSs).The Mn-BCPPy is the first MOF catalyst applied in electrocatalytic NOR which NO_(3)^(-)exhibited relatively high activity with a yield of 99.75μg/(h·mg)and a Faraday efficiency(FE)of 32.09%.Furthermore,it can be used as fluorescent sensor for selectively and sensitively detect nitrofuran antibiotics(NFs).Therefore,this work explores the application of MOF materials in the field of electrocatalytic NOR,which reveals that manganese-based MOFs have great potential prospects.
文摘Bovine serum albumin(BSA)and glycine(Gly)dual-ligand-modified copper nanoclusters(BSA-Gly CuNCs)with high fluorescence intensity were synthesized by a one-pot strategy.Based on the competitive fluorescence quenching and dynamic quenching effects of ornidazole(ONZ)on BSA-Gly CuNCs,a simple and sensitive detection method for ONZ was successfully developed.The experimental results demonstrate that the addition of the small molecule Gly can more effectively protect CuNCs,and thus enhance its fluorescence intensity and stability.The proposed assay allowed for the detection of ONZ in a linear range of 0.28 to 52.60μmol·L^(-1)and a detection limit of 0.069μmol·L^(-1).Compared with the single-ligand-modified CuNCs,dual-ligand-modified BSA-Gly CuNCs had higher fluorescence intensity,stability,and sensing ability and were successfully applied to evaluate ONZ in actual ONZ tablets.

文摘Manganese(Mn),an essential trace element in the human body,plays critical roles in many biological processes.Recent studies have discovered that Mn^(2+)may promote or directly activate the cGAS-STING pathway,thereby subsequently initiating the natural immune response and augmenting antitumor therapy.However,the current lack of accurate methods for Mn^(2+)determination in cells significantly limits their mechanism investigation;hence,it is urgent to establish novel tools to detect Mn^(2+)in cells.In this study,the dual-emission carbon dots were initially synthesized via the one-pot hydrothermal method employing L-aspartic acid and p-phenylenediamine as raw materials.In the presence of Mn^(2+),the emission peak centered at 350 nm exhibited significant enhancement,whereas another peak at 610 nm remained stable.Consequently,a ratiometric sensor for Mn^(2+)determination was established using the signal at 350 nm as the responsive signal and the signal at 610 nm as an internal reference.Under the optimal condition,a good linear relationship was achieved between the F350/F610 value and Mn^(2+)concentration ranging from 0.9 to 15μmol/L,with a calculated LOD of 61 nmol/L.Benefiting from the special Mn^(2+)-induced ratiometric approach,this method demonstrates outstanding sensitivity,selectivity,and stability,rendering it applicable for Mn^(2+)determination in complex biological samples,as well as Mn^(2+)imaging in MKN-45 and LO2 cells.
