A glucose optode measuring the internal oxygen gradient is presented. The multilayer biosensor is composed of (i) analyte-impermeable transparent support, (ii) first oxygen-sensing layer combined with an enzymatic layer, (iii) diffusion barrier, and (iv) second oxygen-sensing layer. To make this design suitable for measurement in subcutaneous tissue, a pair of NIR phosphorescent indicators with very different spectral properties is chosen. Combination of a conventional Pt(II) tetrabenzoporphyrin dye (absorption and emission maxima at 617 and 772 nm, respectively) used in the first layer and a new intramolecularly bridged Pt(II) complex (absorption and emission maxima at 673 and 872 nm, respectively) in the second layer enables efficient separation of both emission signals. This specially designed dye class is accessible via Scholl-reaction from tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphyrin complexes. For the first time, the new optode allows simultaneous glucose and oxygen measurement in a single spot and therefore accurate compensation of oxygen heterogeneities resulting from fluctuations in the tissue. The presented material covers the dynamic ranges from 0 to 150 hPa O and from 0 to 360 mg/dL (20 mM) glucose (at 37 °C).

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers have created decanuclear chiral gold(I) sulfido clusters (S-Au and R-Au) using specialized SDP ligands.
  • Mixing these chiral clusters in a 1:1 ratio yields an achiral heterodimer icosanuclear meso-cluster (meso-Au), which exhibits intense near-infrared luminescence with a peak at around 750 nm.
  • The study highlights the significant increase in photoluminescence quantum yield for meso-Au (25%) compared to the chiral clusters (8%), and shows that the clustering process is influenced by solvent polarity and diphosphine ligand configuration, aiding the understanding of self-sorting in chiral assemblies.

Tunable Nano-Supramolecules Based on Cucurbiturils for Near-Infrared Phosphorescence Imaging.

Nano Lett

Nano-supramolecules based on artificial macrocycles can not only regulate assembly morphology but also boost phosphorescence resonance energy transfer (PRET). Herein, a water-soluble phosphorescence supramolecule was constructed from the hyaluronic acid-modified bromophenylpyridinium (HAPY), cucurbit[]uril (CB[], = 7/8), and energy acceptor phenyl-bridged phenothiazine derivatives, displaying efficient PRET and achieving near-infrared (NIR) phosphorescence by macrocyclic CB[] and the assembly confinements. As compared with weak phosphorescent nanofibers of HAPY/CB[7], the spherical nanoparticles of HAPY/CB[8] not only gave strong green phosphorescence with extended lifetime to 1.

Environmentally friendly natural polymer-based room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials exhibit promising applications in anti-counterfeiting and information encryption. However, the construction of natural polymer-based RTP materials with multicolor long afterglow and even persistent near-infrared (NIR) luminescence remains a tough challenge. Here, starch (S)-based ultralong RTP materials with wide color-tunability, persistent NIR luminescence are conveniently prepared through Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) strategies.

Single-atom "surgery" on chiral all-dialkynyl-protected superatomic silver nanoclusters.

The manipulation of single atom within the metallic kernel of nanoclusters has attracted considerable attention due to its potentials to elucidate kernel-based structure-property relationships at the single-atom level. Herein, new-designed chiral bialkynyl ligands, have been chosen as protective agents to isolate two pairs of 8-electron superatomic silver nanoclusters, R/S-Ag39 and R/S-Ag40. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that Ag39 and Ag40 with the same number of chiral ligands, possess a closely analogous silver skeleton but a single-atomic difference.
