Many commonly employed strategies to map kinase activities in live cells require expression of genetically encoded proteins (e.g. FRET sensors). In this work, we describe the development and preliminary application of a set of cell-penetrating, fluorophore labelled peptide substrates for fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) of Abl and Src-family kinase activities. These probes do not rely on FRET pairs or genetically-encoded protein expression. We further demonstrate probe multiplexing and pixel-by-pixel quantification to estimate the relative proportion of modified probe, suggesting that this strategy will be useful for detailed mapping of single cell and subcellular dynamics of multiple kinases concurrently in live cells.

CQHC, a novel colorimetric fluorescent sensor, developed for the selective sensing of ions and well characterised, including SC-XRD. It demonstrated selective sensing for Co, Zn, Hg and F using absorbance titration at 420 nm, 446 nm and the binding constants estimated follows the order F > Co > Hg > Zn. On light of this, molecular logic gate was built for CQHC's selective multi-ion detection.

Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCh) is a natural polysaccharide derivative with biodegradability, rich in active amino and carboxyl groups. It can act as a ligand to coordinate with rare earth ions, transferring absorbed energy to the central ion to sensitize its luminescence. In this paper, CMCh-Tb was prepared as a solid fluorescent probe by mixing CMCh solution with Tb.

Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) have attracted enormous attention owing to their intriguing structural tunability and diverse functional properties. Reconstructive phase transitions, involving the breaking and reconstruction of chemical bonds, have rarely been found in such materials; however, these features may induce many intriguing physical properties in optics, ferroelectrics, ferromagnetics, and so forth. Here, we utilized the weak and switchable coordination bonds of HETMA-MnCl (HETMA = (2-hydroxyethyl) trimethylammonium) to construct a 1D hybrid perovskite employing a neutral framework.

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials have drawn increasing attention for their potential applications in optical displays and chemo/biosensing. Nevertheless, the construction of circularly polarized room-temperature phosphorescence (CPRTP) materials is still a significant challenge. In this work, four liquid crystalline polymer network films with RTP properties have been fabricated via photopolymerization of cholesteric liquid-crystalline mixtures containing different amounts of commercially available dyes.
