We describe the synthesis of a novel hydrophilic derivative of a tetradentate β-diketone europium ligand that was used to prepare an immunoconjugate probe against Giardia lamblia cysts. We used a Gated Autosynchronous Luminescence Detector (GALD) to obtain high quality delayed luminescence images of cells 30-fold faster than ever previously reported.

A distorted low-symmetry EuL tetrahedral cage was fabricated through the self-assembly of europium ions and -symmetric bowl-shaped ligands containing a phosphangulene core. X-ray crystallography confirmed its unique architecture, featuring significant structural distortion and solvent-accessible coordination sites. This cage showcases exceptional luminescence-based sensitivity for formaldehyde detection compared to other analogs, achieving an impressive detection limit of 19.

Scintillators that convert ionizing radiation into low-energy photons are essential for medical diagnostics and industrial inspections. Despite advances in X-ray scintillators, challenges remain in achieving high efficiency, environmental compatibility, stability, and flexibility. Here, we present experimental investigations of a new type of europium(III)-based hybrid ternary complex scintillators for improved X-ray detection and imaging.

An europium metal organic framework (Eu-DBPA-Phen) was synthesized using 2,5-dibromoterephthalic acid (HDBPA) and 1-10-phenanthroline (Phen) as ligands. A straightforwardc quasi-ratiometric fluorescence probe was then developed for the detection of levofloxacin (LVF) by the simplistic combination of red-emitting Eu-DBPA-Phen and the inherent blue auto-fluorescence of the target. The probe exhibits the advantages of wide linear range (0.

Discrete molecular organometallic europium(II) complexes are promising functional materials due to their ability to behave as highly sensitive band-shift luminescence thermometers. Furthering our understanding of the design principles salient to the emission behavior of such systems is important for developing them in this emerging application. To this end, a series of pseudo--symmetric organometallic europium(II) complexes bearing systematically varying ligand sets were synthesized and characterized to probe the influence of subtle structural modification on their optical properties.

Rapid and accurate testing of 2,6-dipicolinic acid (DPA) and levofloxacin (LFX) has been attracting much attention due to the fact that the former is an important biomarker of anthrax spores and the latter is a third-generation fluoroquinolone drug and has been recognized as an important environmental pollutant. Herein, we report the preparation of a 13-metal Eu(III) nanomolecular sensor (molecular sizes: 2.0 × 2.
