Myocardial hypoxia is accompanied by increased epicardial potassium activity. In this experimental study in rabbits (n = 13), with ion-selective probes, we correlated our findings with an exact evaluation of myocardial oxygen tension, hemodynamic data and arterial and venous blood gas analysis. The epicardial potassium activity had good correlation with these parameters (pm = -0.95, pco = -0.93 and pa = -0.72, pv = -0.96, respectively). Therefore, the clinical use of these electrodes can be recommended for continuous monitoring in intensive care units.

The monitoring of ion homeostasis in vivo is of paramount importance due to its critical functions in biological systems. However, current leading technologies for creating ion-selective electrodes often fall short of the requirements for in vivo applications in terms of multiplexity, miniaturization, and flexibility. To address this gap, we introduce an integrated multiplexed ion monitoring probe created from thermally drawn multi-electrode polymer fiber, aimed at enhancing in vivo ion homeostasis studies.

Selective response is the key index to evaluate the performance of polymeric carbon nitride (PCN)-based heavy metal ion fluorescence sensors. Herein, to explore the role of cyano groups on selectivity, four kinds of PCN, including PCN-Cl, PCN-Ac, PCN-B and PCN-K were prepared by the molten salt method of sodium chloride and sodium acetate, the reduction method of sodium borohydride and the etching method of potassium hydroxide, respectively. These PCNs exhibited different surface cyano characteristics, but all of them had significant blue emission under ultraviolet excitation.

Owing to the biological significance of Cl in cells, several chemical fluorescent probes and biosensors have been constructed to monitor this anion in the cytosol and subcellular organelles. However, a fluorescent probe for the selective detection of nuclear Cl has not been described thus far. In the current study, we developed the first nuclear Cl-selective biosensor, Cl-YFP-NLS, whose fluorescence was effectively quenched by this anion, and demonstrated that it is an efficient and powerful tool for determining the levels of nuclear Cl.

The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a proteinaceous nanopore that solely and selectively regulates the molecular transport between the cytoplasm and nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. The ∼50 nm-diameter pore of the NPC perforates the double-membrane nuclear envelope to mediate both passive and facilitated molecular transport, thereby playing paramount biological and biomedical roles. Herein, we visualize single NPCs by scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM).
