Particle-based assays are becoming versatile analytical tools due to their cost-effectiveness, speed, straightforward and diverse functionalization chemistries, especially when polystyrene particles are used. The introduction of functional groups (–COOH, –NH2, etc.) to the surface of such polystyrene particles promotes their application in bioanalytics. However, the traditional method to determine the amount of surface carboxylate groups is conductivity titration, which is usually time- and resources-consuming and discontinuous. Here, we synthesized polystyrene microparticles with different contents of carboxylate groups, and then investigated a simpler and potentially continuous approach to determine the amount of surface carboxylate groups by Zeta potential measurements. The results were compared to the traditional titration method and to actual coupling efficiencies of the functionalized particles with a model oligonucleotide probe as determined by flow cytometry. All quantification methods revealed good agreement.
Luminescence amplification strategies integrated with microparticle and nanoparticle platforms
(2011)
The amplification of luminescence signals is often the key to sensitive and powerful detection protocols. Besides optimized fluorescent probes and labels, functionalized nano- and microparticles have received strongly increasing attention in this context during the past decade. This contribution introduces the main signalling concepts for particle-based amplification strategies and stresses, especially the important role that metal and semiconductor nanoparticles play in this field. Besides resonance energy transfer, metal-enhanced emission and the catalytic generation of luminescence, the impact of multi-chromophoric objects such as dye nanocrystals, dendrimers, conjugated polymers or mesoporous hybrid materials is assessed. The representative examples discussed cover a broad range of analytes from metal ions and small organic molecules to oligonucleotides and enzyme activity.
The successful synthesis of tetraphenyltetraphenanthroporphyrin (TPTPhenP; 5a) in 2006 under modified Rothemund–Lindsey conditions yielded a tetraphenyl porphyrinoid with a B band redshifted to an unprecedented 576 nm. Radially symmetric fused-ring expansion of tetraphenylporphyrin with phenanthrene moieties results in very deep saddling due to steric crowding and very marked redshifts of the Q and B (or Soret) porphyrinoid absorption bands. The extent to which the TPTPhenP structure can be further modified is explored, and the optical properties of TPTPhenPs are analyzed based on a perimeter model approach that makes use of time-dependent DFT calculations and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy and also based on a detailed analysis of the fluorescence emission. Attempts to introduce substituents at the ortho and meta positions of the meso-phenyl groups and to insert a central metal proved unsuccessful. The synthesis of a series of TPTPhenPs with strong electron-withdrawing (—CN, —NO2) and -donating (—CH3, —N(CH3)2) substituents at the para positions of the meso-phenyl rings is reported. Marked redshifts of the main spectral bands were consistently observed. The most pronounced spectral changes were observed with —N(CH3)2 groups (5i) due to a marked destabilization of the HOMO, which has large MO coefficients on the meso-carbon atoms. Protonation of 5i at both the ligand core and at the —N(CH3)2 groups resulted in unprecedented Q00 band absorption at wavelengths greater than 1200 nm.
Mit dem Testsystem zur Probe
(2021)
Nitroaromaten und insbesondere Trinitrotoluol (TNT) sind weit verbreitete Spreng- und Umweltschadstoffe. Die größte Herausforderung bei der Detektion von TNT in der Gasphase ist der geringe Dampfdruck. Derzeit werden vielerorts günstige, schnelle, handliche und einfach zu bedienende Alternativen zur klassischen TNT-Analytik entwickelt. Aktuell existieren keine einheitlichen Richtlinien für Sprengstoffsensoren. Hier wird die Entwicklung eines Messplatzes zur Validierung von Sprengstoffsensoren sowie die Erprobung eines kompakten Mustersensors vorgestellt.
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are potent and established recognition phases in separation and enrichment applications. Because of their robustness, versatility and format adaptability, they also constitute very promising sensing phases, especially when the active sensing element is directly integrated into the MIP. Fluorescent MIPs incorporating fluorescent monomers are perhaps the best developed and most successful approach here. This article reviews the state of the art in this field, discussing the pros and cons of the use of fluorescent dye and probe derivatives as such monomers, the different molecular interaction forces for template complexation, signalling modes and a variety of related approaches that have been realized over the years, including Förster resonance energy transfer processes, covalent imprinting, postmodification attachment of fluorescent units and conjugated polymers as MIPs; other measurement schemes and sensing chemistries that use MIPs and fluorescence interrogation to solve analytical problems (fluorescent competitive assays, fluorescent analytes, etc.) are not covered here. Throughout the article, photophysical processes are discussed to facilitate understanding of the effects that can occur when one is planning for a fluorescence response to happen in a constrained polymer matrix. The article concludes with a concise assessment of the suitability of the different formats for sensor realization.
A 2,3-diaminophenazine bis-urea fluorescent probe monomer (1) was developed. It responds to phenylphosphate and phosphorylated amino acids in a ratiometric fashion with enhanced fluorescence accompanied by the development of a redshifted emission band arising from an excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) process in the hydrogen-bonded probe/analyte complex. The two urea groups of 1 form a cleft-like binding pocket (Kb>10^10 L^2 mol^-2 for 1:2 complex). Imprinting of 1 in presence of ethyl ester- and fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc)-protected phosphorylated tyrosine (Fmoc-pTyr-OEt) as the template, methacrylamide as co-monomer, and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate as crosslinker gave few-nanometer-thick molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) shells on silica core microparticles with excellent selectivity for the template in a buffered biphasic assay. The supramolecular recognition Features were established by spectroscopic and NMR studies. Rational screening of comonomers and cross-linkers allowed to single out the best performing MIP components, giving significant imprinting factors (IF>3.5) while retaining ESPT emission and the ratiometric response in the thin polymer shell. Combination of the bead-based detection scheme with the phase-transfer assay dramatically improved the IF to 15.9, allowing sensitive determination of the analyte directly in aqueous media.
Integration of a polymerisable fluorescent urea-nitrobenzoxadiazole monomer 1 into a few-nanometre thin molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) shell coated onto a 300 nm silica core with the tetrabutylammonium salt of N-carbobenzyloxy-L-phenylalanine (Cbz- or Z-ʟ-Phe) as the imprinted template yields core/shell MIP nanoparticles that respond to the designated analyte with a strong fluorescence increase in the visible spectral range. The system shows promising imprinting and enantioselectivity factors of 3.6 and 1.9 when benzylmethylacrylate (BMA) is used as co-monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA) as cross-linker. A second, naphthalimide-based fluorescent urea 2 is employed in the preparation of MIP thin-films and monolithic polymers for separation techniques. Spectroscopic and chromatographic studies of the MIPs with the analytes Z-ʟ-Phe, Z-ʟ-glutamic acid (Z-ʟ-Glu) and penicilin G (PenG) revealed the (enantio)selective discrimination behaviour of these materials.
