In this paper, the size effect of the polydiacetylene vesicles functionalized with glycolipids on their colorimetric detection ability has been studied. Polydiacetylene vesicles in which were incorporated glycolipids acted as a model system for the affinochromatic property. Visible color changes from blue to red could be observed to the naked eye owing to Con A binding to the sugar moiety and be detected quantitatively by the visible absorption spectrum. In the experiment, small and uniform vesicles were obtained after extrusion through membranes with different pore sizes. The morphology and mean size distribution of the extruded vesicles were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS), respectively. Our work shows that the smaller the vesicles are, the stronger is the effect, making the detection of Con A easier. The results may apply to the sensitivity enhancement of polydiacetylene biosensors for the recognition of other biomolecules.

Polydiacetylenes (PDAs) are conjugated polymers that are well known for their colorimetric transition from blue to red with the application of energetic stimulus. Sensing platforms based on polymerized diacetylene surfactant vesicles and other structures have been widely demonstrated for various colorimetric biosensing applications. Although less studied and utilized, the transition also results in a change from a non-fluorescent to a highly fluorescent state, making polydiacetylenes useful for both colorimetric and fluorogenic sensing applications.

Exosomes (50-150 nm) play significant biological functions in intercellular communication and transportation of diverse biomolecules, including proteins and nucleic acids. In particular, malignant exosomes have received a great deal of attention as possible indicators for cancer detection and treatment. To swiftly and precisely identify malignant exosomes from normal exosomes in diverse bodily fluids, we developed polydiacetylene (PDA)-based aptasensors with distinct optical features exhibiting color shift in response to biological recognition.

This work presents the synthesis of a new representative of hemicurcuminoids with a nonyloxy substituent () as a fluorescent amphiphilic structural element of vesicular aggregates based on phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylserine (PS), and 10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid (PCDA). Both X-ray diffraction analysis of the single crystal and H NMR spectra of in organic solvents indicate the predominance of the enol-tautomer of . DFT calculations show the predominance of the enol tautomer in supramolecular assemblies with PC, PS, and PCDA molecules.

In this study, we developed a novel galloyl group-functionalized polydiacetylene (Galloyl-PDA) sensor for colorimetric and fluorescent detection of Pb. Among three types of Galloyl-PDA vesicles prepared by changing the ratio of newly synthesized galloyl group-conjugated 10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid (Galloyl-PCDA) and matrix 10,12-tricosadinoic acid (TCDA), the blue Galloyl-PDA vesicles with 1:9 molar ratio of Galloyl-PCDA:TCDA showed the most dramatic color transitions to red with colorimetric response (CR) value of 46.66 ± 1.

In this study, we developed a highly stable polymeric vesicle using a nanosilica-armor membrane to achieve a sustainable colorimetric/luminescent response. The silica armor can be grown directly as ~ 5 nm spherical nanoparticles on the surface of the diacetylene (DA) vesicle with liposomal structure. This can be accomplished via the modified Stöber reaction in pure water on a layer of amine linkers deposited on the vesicles.
