The method of CTMAB-Al(3+)-OFLX ternary complex fluorescence microscopic imaging technique was established for the determination of ofloxacin based on the capillary effect of solvent on solid supports, and the concentration in the serum after the chicken was burdened with ofloxacin tablet, the concentration in the human urines and the percentage composition in the honeies, ofloxacin tablets and eye-drops were measured with satisfaction, respectively. In the presence of pH 9. 50 NH3-NH4Cl buffer solution and PVA-124, CTMAB-Al(3+)-OFLX ternary complex can form a self-ordered ring on the hydrophobic supports with the diameter of 1.63 mm and its ring belt width of 50 microm. When a 0.20 microL droplet was spotted, the fluorescence intensity of the ring had a favorable linear relation (r = 0.999 2) with the drug concentration in the range of 3.30 x 10(-13) - 1.65 x 10(-12) mol x ring(-1) (0.60-2.98 mg x L(-1)) and the limit of detection can reach 4.10 x 10(-15) mol x ring(-1) (7.41 microg x L(-1)) with three times of signal to noise ratio. This method has been applied to the average concentration of ofloxacin in the chicken serum with the recovery of 96.4%-101.2% after two hours of being burdened with ofloxacin tablet. Then the technique was applied to the determination of ofloxacin in the three healthy volunteer's urines after oral administration with recovery of 98.2% - 106.%. It was found that the concentrations of ofloxacin in urines were the highest after three hours of taking medicine; the result was similar to reports in the literature. The residues of ofloxacin in three different honey samples were satisfactorily determined with the recoveries of 98.2% - 106.1%, and RSD was less than 2.3%. The contents of active constituent in tablet samples and eye-drops sample were determined with recoveries of 93.5%-101.5% and 95.8%-104.2%, and RSD was 3.5% and 3.6%, respectively, which were similar to marked values.

The hydrothermal synthesis is presented of copper-doped carbon dots (Cu-CDs) from citric acid, urea, and copper chloride, resulting in blue-fluorescent particles with stable emission at 438 nm when excited at 340 nm. Through comprehensive spectroscopic and microscopic characterization (FTIR, XPS, UV, and HRTEM), the Cu-CDs demonstrated remarkable stability across varying pH levels, ionic strengths, temperatures, and UV exposure. Notably, Cu-CDs exhibit ultra-sensitive and selective detection of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] ions in aqueous environments driven by fluorescence quenching.

Photodynamic therapy is a highly promising method for cancer adjuvant treatment. However, the current research on the microscopic changes during the photodynamic therapy process is still quite limited, which seriously impedes the deep understanding of the procedure. For this purpose, a novel polarity-responsive probe, , with excellent mitochondrial targeting and anchoring capabilities has been rationally designed and synthesized.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), membrane-encapsulated nanoparticles shed from all cells, are tightly involved in critical cellular functions. Moreover, EVs have recently emerged as exciting therapeutic modalities, delivery vectors, and biomarker sources. However, EVs are difficult to characterize, because they are typically small and heterogeneous in size, origin, and molecular content.

Visualizing the DNA Damage Response in Purkinje Cells Using Cerebellar Organotypic Cultures.

J Vis Exp

December 2024

The David and Inez Myers Laboratory for Cancer Genetics, Department of Human Molecular Genetics and Biochemistry, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, School of Medicine, Tel Aviv University;

Cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) exhibit a unique interplay of high metabolic rates, specific chromatin architecture, and extensive transcriptional activity, making them particularly vulnerable to DNA damage. This necessitates an efficient DNA damage response (DDR) to prevent cerebellar degeneration, often initiated by PC dysfunction or loss. A notable example is the genome instability syndrome, ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T), marked by progressive PC depletion and cerebellar deterioration.
