AI Article Synopsis
- Three new 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives were synthesized, showcasing different substituents at the C-4 position, and their photophysical properties were examined in various organic solvents, revealing strong dependence on solvent polarity and substituent type.
- The study found that for two compounds with a tertiary amino group linked to their chromophore, high fluorescence quantum yields occurred only in non-polar environments, while the third compound's efficiency was unaffected by solvent polarity.
- The influence of different metal ions and pH levels on the fluorescence emissions of two compounds demonstrated significant intensity enhancements, particularly in the presence of certain metal ions and in acidic conditions, with computational methods used to explore the underlying mechanisms.
Article Abstract
Three new 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives - with different substituents at the C-4 position have been synthesized and characterized. Their photophysical properties have been investigated in organic solvents of different polarity, and their fluorescence intensity was found to depend strongly on both the polarity of the solvents and the type of substituent at C-4. For compounds and having a tertiary amino group linked via an ethylene bridge to the chromophore system, high quantum yield was observed only in non-polar media, whereas for compound , the quantum efficiency did not depend on the medium polarity. The effect of different metal ions (Ag, Ba, Cu, Co, Mg, Pb, Sr, Fe, and Sn) on the fluorescence emission of compounds and was investigated. A significant enhancement has been observed in the presence of Ag, Pb, Sn, Co, Fe, as this effect is expressed more preferably in the case of . Both compounds have shown significant pH dependence, as the fluorescence intensity was low in alkaline medium and has been enhanced more than 20-fold in acidic medium. The metal ions and pH do not affect the fluorescence intensity of . Density-functional theory (DFT) and Time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) quantum chemical calculations are employed in deciphering the intimate mechanism of sensor mechanism. The functional properties of and were compared with polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers of different generations modified with 1,8-naphthalimide.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the cumulative effects and expression patterns of electroacupuncture (EA) on irisin secretion, observe the effects of EA on the recovery of neurobehavioral function and vascular remodeling after cerebral ischemia, and elucidate the mechanism by which EA promotes vascular remodeling by regulating irisin expression.
Methods: A rat model of left middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was prepared, and EA was performed. Tissue distribution and expression of irisin were determined by immunofluorescence, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Western blotting.

Construction of single probes for simultaneous detection of common trivalent metal ions has attracted much attention due to higher efficiency in analysis and cost. A naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe K1 was synthesized for selective detection of Al, Cr and Fe ions. Fluorescence emission intensity at 534 nm of probe K1 in DMSO/HO (9:1, v/v) was significantly enhanced upon addition of Al, Cr and Fe ions while addition of other metal ions (Li, Na, K, Ag, Cu, Fe, Zn, Co, Ni, Mn, Sr, Hg, Ca, Mg, Ce, Bi and Au) did not bring about substantial change in fluorescence emission.

Nitrogen doped Carbon Quantum Dots (NCQDs) have been synthesized using most economical and easiest hydrothermal process. Here, N-phenyl orthophenylenediamine and citric acid were utilised as a source of nitrogen and carbon for the preparation of NCQDs. The synthesized NCQDs were characterized using experimental techniques like UV - Vis absorption, FT-IR, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), EDX, dynamic light scattering (DLS), fluorimeter and time resolved fluorescence spectroscopy.

Dielectrophoresis (DEP) cell separation technology is an effective means of separating target cells which are only marginally present in a wide variety of cells. To develop highly efficient cell separation devices, detailed analysis of the nonuniform electric field's intensity distribution within the device is needed, as it affects separation performance. Here we analytically expressed the distributions of the electric field and DEP force in a parallel-plate cell separation DEP device by employing electrostatic analysis through the Fourier series method.
