The surface of the starch-nanoparticles was combined with fluorescence material Ru(bpy)32+·6H2O, and then the particles were characterized via transmission electron microscope. The fluorescence nanoparticles were conjugated with plasmid DNA to form complexes, and then treated with ultrasound and DNase I. pEGAD plasmid DNA-nanoparticle complexes were co-cultured with plant suspension cells of Dioscrea Zigiberensis G H Wright, and treated with ultrasound. The results show that the diameter of the fluorescence starch-nanoparticles is 50-100 nm. DNA-nanoparticle complexes can protect DNA from ultrasound damage as well as from DNase I cleavage. Mediated by ultrasound, pEGAD plasmid DNA-nanoparticle complexes can pierce into the cell wall, cell membrane and nucleus membrane of plant suspension cells. The green fluorescence protein(GFP) gene at a high frequency exceeds 5%. This nano-biomaterial can efficiently solve the problem that exterior genes cannot traverse the plant cell wall easily.展开更多

The citrate-stabilized CdSe/CdS (QDs) were synthesized by using Se powder and Na2S as precursors instead of any pyrophoric organometallic precursors. The modified CdSe/CdS QDs are brighter and more stable against photobleaching in comparison with organic fluorophores. At pH 7.0, the fluorescence signal of CdSe/CdS is enhanced by increasing the concentration of BSA in the range of 0.1-10 μg/mL, and the low detection limit is 0.06 μg/mL. A linear relationship between the enhanced fluorescence peak intensity (△F) and BSA concentration (c) is established using equation △F=50.7c+16.4 (R=0.996 36). Results of determination for BSA in three synthetic samples are identical with the true values, and the recovery (98.9%-102.4%) and relative standard deviation (RSD, 1.8%-2.5%) are satisfactory.展开更多

The results show that the emission spectra have a sharp peak at 400 nm and a broad shoulder with the maximum centered at 460 nm. The excitation spectra have two peaks and exhibit red shift (shift to longer wavelengths) at 470 nm. The synchronous scan spectra present a number of peaks and shoulders, and the peaks at shorter wavelengths disappear gradually and form a shoulder. At the final stage of composting, the fluorescence spectra have similar shapes, but the fluorescence intensities decrease. P. chrysosporium increases the degree of aromatization and polymerization of HA when it is inoculated during the second fermentation phase, while it does not produce an obvious change on the humification degree of HA when it is inoculated during the first fermentation phase. Compared with the fluorescence spectroscopy characteristics of HA from soil, the structure of HA from compost is simpler and the activity is higher.展开更多

Traditional macro-humidity monitoring equipment in civil engineering cannot capture the microscale humidity inside cement-based materials in situ. In this paper, a method of using rhodamine 6G fluorescence to characterize the change in relative humidity in cement-based materials is proposed. Two kinds of moulding processes are designed, which are premixed and smeared after moulding, and the optimal preparation concentration is explored. The results showed that rhodamine 6G can reflect the relative humidity of cement-based materials in situ by its fluorescence intensity and had little effect on the hydration heat release and hydration products of cement-based materials;the fluorescence intensity was much higher when the internal relative humidity was 63% and 75%. The research results lead the application of polymer materials in the field of traditional building materials, help to explore the performance evolution law of cement-based materials in micro scale, and have important significance for the evolution from single discipline to interdisciplinary.展开更多

The ligand synthetic route was optimized. The fluorescence properties of the complex in solid state, in different kind of solvents and in solutions with different pH values were investigated in detail. The results show that the yields of DSPDA and 4-SPDA reach over 78% by Wittig-Horner reaction and other eight pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives with different substituents on pyridine ring, and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) are also obtained. The fluorescence intensities of the complexes with electron-donating groups are more intense than those of the complexes with electron-withdrawing groups on pyridine ring; fluorescence intensities of the complexes are the strongest in neutral solution (pH=7), and the less the dipole moment of solvent molecule is, the stronger the fluorescence intensity is. It is found that the two ligands (4-APDA and DSPDA) are the good sensitizers for Tb(Ⅲ) ion.展开更多

The results show that the fluorescence quenching for polysilanes by carbon tetrachloride is the static quenching with energy migration, which is also supported by the qualitative results of the fluorescence quenching behaviors of polysilane by nitromethane (CH3NO2) and 2, 4, 7trinitrofluorenone(TNF).展开更多

The additional irradiation sources with frequencies of 1.04MHz, 0.8MHz and 1.7MHz are individually combined with the main ultrasonic irradiation source with frequency of 28kHz to form bi-frequency ultrasonic irradiation. The intensity of 28kHz irradiation was fixed at 12.5W/cm^2, while the intensity of the ultrasound at the other three frequencies is varied from1 W/cm^2 to 18 W/cm^2. It turns out that under the influence of the bi-frequency irradiation, the fluorescence intensity is obviously greater than the sum of those at individual frequencies. So the frequency of the additional sonication strikingly influences the fluorescence enhancement effect. For example, the fluorescence enhancement effect of 1.04MHz is stronger than that of 1.7MHz, and the enhancement effect of 0.8MHz is further stronger than that of 1.04MHz. Under the sonic intensity of (7.9)W/cm^2, the fluorescence intensity of 1.04MHz is approximately twice that of 1.7MHz while the fluorescence intensity of 0.8MHz is approximately 1.5 times that of 1.04MHz.展开更多

Among all the complexes, Eu0.6Gd0.4(TTA)3Phen complex has the strongest fluorescent intensity. Applying Eu0.6Gd0.4(TTA)3Phen complex to plastic and printing inks, bright red fluorescence plastic and printing inks are obtained when the content of europium reaches 0.1%(mass fraction).

文摘Starch-nanoparticles were synthesized in water-in-oil microemusion at room temperature, and the starch-nanoparticles were coated with poly-L-lysine. The surface of the starch-nanoparticles was combined with fluorescence material Ru(bpy)32+·6H2O, and then the particles were characterized via transmission electron microscope. The fluorescence nanoparticles were conjugated with plasmid DNA to form complexes, and then treated with ultrasound and DNase I. pEGAD plasmid DNA-nanoparticle complexes were co-cultured with plant suspension cells of Dioscrea Zigiberensis G H Wright, and treated with ultrasound. The results show that the diameter of the fluorescence starch-nanoparticles is 50-100 nm. DNA-nanoparticle complexes can protect DNA from ultrasound damage as well as from DNase I cleavage. Mediated by ultrasound, pEGAD plasmid DNA-nanoparticle complexes can pierce into the cell wall, cell membrane and nucleus membrane of plant suspension cells. The green fluorescence protein(GFP) gene at a high frequency exceeds 5%. This nano-biomaterial can efficiently solve the problem that exterior genes cannot traverse the plant cell wall easily.

文摘A rapid, ultrasensitive and convenient fluorescence measurement technology based on the enhancement of the fluorescence intensity resulting from the interaction of functionalized CdSe/CdS quantum dots (QDs) with bov/ne serum albumin (BSA) was proposed. The citrate-stabilized CdSe/CdS (QDs) were synthesized by using Se powder and Na2S as precursors instead of any pyrophoric organometallic precursors. The modified CdSe/CdS QDs are brighter and more stable against photobleaching in comparison with organic fluorophores. At pH 7.0, the fluorescence signal of CdSe/CdS is enhanced by increasing the concentration of BSA in the range of 0.1-10 μg/mL, and the low detection limit is 0.06 μg/mL. A linear relationship between the enhanced fluorescence peak intensity (△F) and BSA concentration (c) is established using equation △F=50.7c+16.4 (R=0.996 36). Results of determination for BSA in three synthetic samples are identical with the true values, and the recovery (98.9%-102.4%) and relative standard deviation (RSD, 1.8%-2.5%) are satisfactory.

文摘The white-rot fungus, Phanerochaete chrysosporium (P. chrysosporium), was inoculated during different phases of agricultural waste composting, and its effect on the fluorescence spectroscopy characteristics of humic acid (HA) was studied. The results show that the emission spectra have a sharp peak at 400 nm and a broad shoulder with the maximum centered at 460 nm. The excitation spectra have two peaks and exhibit red shift (shift to longer wavelengths) at 470 nm. The synchronous scan spectra present a number of peaks and shoulders, and the peaks at shorter wavelengths disappear gradually and form a shoulder. At the final stage of composting, the fluorescence spectra have similar shapes, but the fluorescence intensities decrease. P. chrysosporium increases the degree of aromatization and polymerization of HA when it is inoculated during the second fermentation phase, while it does not produce an obvious change on the humification degree of HA when it is inoculated during the first fermentation phase. Compared with the fluorescence spectroscopy characteristics of HA from soil, the structure of HA from compost is simpler and the activity is higher.

文摘The transmission and distribution of moisture in cement-based materials are of great significance to the properties and durability of materials. Traditional macro-humidity monitoring equipment in civil engineering cannot capture the microscale humidity inside cement-based materials in situ. In this paper, a method of using rhodamine 6G fluorescence to characterize the change in relative humidity in cement-based materials is proposed. Two kinds of moulding processes are designed, which are premixed and smeared after moulding, and the optimal preparation concentration is explored. The results showed that rhodamine 6G can reflect the relative humidity of cement-based materials in situ by its fluorescence intensity and had little effect on the hydration heat release and hydration products of cement-based materials;the fluorescence intensity was much higher when the internal relative humidity was 63% and 75%. The research results lead the application of polymer materials in the field of traditional building materials, help to explore the performance evolution law of cement-based materials in micro scale, and have important significance for the evolution from single discipline to interdisciplinary.

文摘Two novel ligands named 4-styrylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (4-SPDA) and 4-(4-(2-(2, 6-dicarboxypyridin-4-yl)- vinyl)styryl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid(DSPDA) and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectrometry, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, elemental analysis and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry. The ligand synthetic route was optimized. The fluorescence properties of the complex in solid state, in different kind of solvents and in solutions with different pH values were investigated in detail. The results show that the yields of DSPDA and 4-SPDA reach over 78% by Wittig-Horner reaction and other eight pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives with different substituents on pyridine ring, and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) are also obtained. The fluorescence intensities of the complexes with electron-donating groups are more intense than those of the complexes with electron-withdrawing groups on pyridine ring; fluorescence intensities of the complexes are the strongest in neutral solution (pH=7), and the less the dipole moment of solvent molecule is, the stronger the fluorescence intensity is. It is found that the two ligands (4-APDA and DSPDA) are the good sensitizers for Tb(Ⅲ) ion.

文摘he solutionfluorescence quenching mechanisms of poly(methylcyclohexylsilane),poly(methylphenethylsilane), poly(methylcyclohexylsilanecomethylphenethylsilane) and poly(methylphenylsilane) are studied by means of steadystate fluorescence,timeresolved fluorescence and UV absorption. The results show that the fluorescence quenching for polysilanes by carbon tetrachloride is the static quenching with energy migration, which is also supported by the qualitative results of the fluorescence quenching behaviors of polysilane by nitromethane (CH3NO2) and 2, 4, 7trinitrofluorenone(TNF).
文摘Based on a previous research of cavitation effect under bi-frequency ultrasound irradiation, this paper studies bi-frequency irradiations with similar experimental settings. The additional irradiation sources with frequencies of 1.04MHz, 0.8MHz and 1.7MHz are individually combined with the main ultrasonic irradiation source with frequency of 28kHz to form bi-frequency ultrasonic irradiation. The intensity of 28kHz irradiation was fixed at 12.5W/cm^2, while the intensity of the ultrasound at the other three frequencies is varied from1 W/cm^2 to 18 W/cm^2. It turns out that under the influence of the bi-frequency irradiation, the fluorescence intensity is obviously greater than the sum of those at individual frequencies. So the frequency of the additional sonication strikingly influences the fluorescence enhancement effect. For example, the fluorescence enhancement effect of 1.04MHz is stronger than that of 1.7MHz, and the enhancement effect of 0.8MHz is further stronger than that of 1.04MHz. Under the sonic intensity of (7.9)W/cm^2, the fluorescence intensity of 1.04MHz is approximately twice that of 1.7MHz while the fluorescence intensity of 0.8MHz is approximately 1.5 times that of 1.04MHz.

文摘cis-1,3,4,6-Tetranitrooctahydroimidazo-[4,5 d]imidazole(BCHMX)is an advanced energetic compound that expected to spread worldwide in the near future.Since,no approved remote detection methods were reported in current literature for this material,we performed hyper-spectral imaging and laser induced fluorescence(LIF)to a BCHMX sample under low laser fluence for determining the optimum laser wavelength used in any future BCHMX-LIF based remote detection systems.For this purpose,an experimental setup consisted of a sun spectrum lamp and hyper-spectral camera was built to illuminate and image white powder samples of BCHMX in comparison with the traditional explosives,HMX(1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane),RDX(1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane),PETN(2,2-Bis[(nitroxy)methyl]propane-1,3-diyldinitrate).The imaging reveals strong BCHMX sample absorption contrast among other samples at wavelength ranging from 400 to 410 nm.When light source was replaced by a 405 nm laser diode illuminator,a strong BCHMX sample LIF at the spectral range from 425 to 700 nm was observed under low laser fluence condition of 0.1 mJ/cm^(2).Finally,we demonstrated successfully the ability of the 405 nm LIF and the hyperspectral imaging technique to detect finger print traces of BCHMX on white cellulose fabric from a distance of 15 m and a detection limit of 1 mg/cm^(2).

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.
