We designed and synthesized a nucleoside derivative in which the nucleobase is replaced with acridone. The nucleoside derivative was incorporated into an oligodeoxyribonucleotide (ODN), and its influence on the stability of ODN hybrids and its fluorescent properties in a DNA duplex were measured by thermodynamic analysis and fluorescent spectroscopy. These results showed that the acridonyl group could distinguish the type of nucleobase paired from fluorescent intensity, although the hybrid stability did not depend significantly on the types of nucleobases paired.

Elastomers are of great significance in developing smart materials for information encryption, and their unique self-healing and highly flexible properties provide innovative solutions to enhance security and anti-counterfeiting effectiveness. However, challenges remain in the multifunctional combination of mechanical properties, self-healing, degradability, and luminescence of these materials. Herein, a chemodynamic covalent adaptable network (CCAN)-induced robust, self-healing, and degradable fluorescent elastomer is proposed.

Methylene blue (MB) contamination has become a significant environmental issue due to its widespread presence in industrial effluents, posing serious threats to ecosystems and human health. As a result, there is an urgent need for the development of novel adsorbent materials that can effectively remove these pollutants from water sources. In this context, the present study focuses on the design and synthesis of two coordination polymers (CPs) containing Zn(II) and Mn(II), namely, {[Mn(L)(tib)]·4HO} (1) and [Zn(L)(3,5-bibp)] (2), using a combined-ligand approach under solvothermal conditions.

Article Synopsis
  • Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are gaining attention as cost-effective and eco-friendly fluorescence probes, offering advantages over traditional luminescent techniques.
  • A new type of copper and nitrogen-doped CQDs (Cu-N@CQDs) was created, achieving a high quantum yield of 40.20% for detecting malathion, an insecticide.
  • The study demonstrated that the fluorescence intensity of Cu-N@CQDs decreased in response to malathion, allowing for accurate measurements across various samples like water and food, achieving high recovery rates.
