Polyurethane nanocomposites with high content of red NIR luminescent transition metal clusters are presented. The gas permeability of the hybrid material is controlled by adjusting the hard/soft segment ratio of the organic matrix structure leading to a drastic and reversible enhancement of cluster luminescence depending on the molecular oxygen concentration in its surrounding atmosphere.

The development of long-wavelength near-infrared II (NIR-II, 900-1700 nm) dyes is highly desirable but challenging. To achieve both red-shifted absorption/emission and superior imaging capabilities, a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) xanthene core was strategically modified by extending π-conjugated double bonds and enhancing electron-donating properties. Two dyes named and were synthesized and exhibited notably red-shifted absorption/emission peaks at 942/1250 and 1098/1450 nm, respectively.

Photoactive complexes of bioessential 3d metals, activable within the phototherapeutic window (650-900 nm), have gained widespread interest due to their therapeutic potential. Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, and light-enhanced anticancer and antibacterial properties of four new dinuclear Co(II) complexes: [Co(phen)(cat)] (Co-1), [Co(dppz)(cat)] (Co-2), [Co(phen)(esc)] (Co-3), and [Co(dppz)(esc)] (Co-4). In these complexes, phen (1,10-phenanthroline) and dppz (dipyrido[3,2-:2',3'-]phenazine) act as neutral N,N-donor ligands, while cat and esc serve as O,O-donor catecholate ligands derived from catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene) and esculetin (6,7-dihydroxy coumarin).

Although classical fluorescent dyes feature advantages of high quantum yield, tunable "OFF-ON" fluorescence, and modifiable chemical structures, etc., their bio-applications in deep tissue remains challenging due to their excessively short emission wavelength (that may lead to superficial tissue penetration depth). Therefore, there is a pressing need for pushing the wavelength of classical dyes from visible region to NIR-II window.

Analyzing manure nutrients such as total ammonium nitrogen (NH), dry matter (DM), calcium oxide (CaO), total nitrogen (-N), phosphorus pentoxide (PO), magnesium oxide (MgO), and potassium oxide (KO) helps in fulfilling crop nutritional needs while improving the profitability and a lower risk of pollutants. This study used two Near Infra Red (NIR) spectral datasets of fresh and dried manure. The freshly prepared NHCl, CaO, Ca(OH), PO, MgO, and KO samples were used for spectral signature peak identification and calibration.

Chronic alcoholism is known to have detrimental effects on the brain, including cognitive impairment, neurotransmitter imbalances, and brain atrophy. The hippocampus, crucial for spatial memory and cognitive functions, is particularly susceptible to alcohol-induced changes. Photobiomodulation (PBM), a non-invasive therapeutic method that utilizes red or near-infrared light, has shown promising applications in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
