AI Article Synopsis

  • The process involves dialysis of a mixture containing fluorescein and sulforhodamine B labeled dextran derivatives.
  • This method produces nanosensors that are biocompatible, meaning they are safe for use in biological systems.
  • These nanosensors can be adjusted to measure pH levels in a ratiometric manner, allowing for more accurate and reliable readings.

Article Abstract

Dialysis of a mixture of fluorescein and sulforhodamine B marked dextran derivatives yields biocompatible and tuneable nanosensors that can be used for ratiometric pH measurements.
