A mitochondria targetable and viscosity sensitive fluorescent probe and its applications for distinguishing cancerous cells
摘要: The determination of mitochondrial viscosity is of great importance owing to its crucial roles in the diffusion-mediated processes. It has demonstrated that the viscosity in cancer cells is higher than normal cells. Developing of viscosity sensitive fluorescent probes for distinguishing normal cells and cancer cells is necessary. Herein, we present a mitochondrial-targeting fluorescent probe PFV for the detection of viscosity in live cells. It exhibited outstanding sensitivity to viscosity, free from disturbing by ROS/sulfuret even at high concentrations. Equipped with mitochondria targeting ability, PFV was then applied to mitochondrial viscosity detection. Most importantly, by viscosity monitoring PFV successfully differentiated normal hepatic cells and cancerous hepatic cells. The present study would offer a broadly applicable for the determination of viscosity in complex systems.

Synthesis, characterization and photophysical properties of meso-indole-boron-dipyrromethene derivatives and their cell imaging and viscosity sensing
摘要: Based on the molecular design and structural modification of boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY), two new BODIPY derivatives with meso-substituted functional indole moieties were successfully prepared. These new compounds were characterized by NMR, HRMS and FTIR, exhibiting the different UV-vis and PL spectral phenomena because of their varied molecular structures in various solvents and different degrees of negative solvatochromism. Theoretical calculations and CV results show that the substituted NO2 group at 5-position of indole is favorable for increasing the oxidation potential of the molecules, while the NH2 group is the opposite. These two BODIPY derivatives have different sensitivities to pH changes, and can be appropriately applied as cell imaging materials due to their good physical chemical characteristics and excellent biocompatibility. In particular, the fluorescence characteristics of BODIPY derivative with the substituted NH2 group at 5-position of indole show a good solvent viscosity dependence, highlighting its potential application for testing the intracellular viscosity changes of the living cell in disease diagnosis.

Protein-Protein Interactions of Highly Concentrated Monoclonal Antibody Solutions via Static Light Scattering and Influence on the Viscosity
摘要: The ability to design and formulate mAbs to minimize attractive interactions at high concentrations is important for protein processing, stability and administration, particularly in subcutaneous delivery, where high viscosities are often challenging. The strength of protein-protein interactions (PPI) of an IgG1 and IgG4 monoclonal antibody (mAb) from low to high concentration were determined by static light scattering (SLS) and used to understand viscosity data. The PPI were tuned using NaCl and five organic ionic co-solutes. The PPI strength was quantified by the normalized structure factor S(0)/S(0)HS and Kirkwood-Buff integral G22/G22,HS (HS = hard sphere) determined from the SLS data, and also by fits with (1) a spherical Yukawa potential and (2) an interacting hard sphere (IHS) model, which describes attraction in terms of hypothetical oligomers. The IHS model was better able to capture the scattering behavior of the more strongly-interacting systems (mAb and/or co-solute) than the spherical Yukawa potential. For each descriptor of PPI, linear correlations were obtained between the viscosity at high concentration (200 mg/mL) and the interaction strengths evaluated both at low (20 mg/mL) and high concentration (200 mg/mL) for a given mAb. However, the only parameter that provided a correlation across both mAbs was the oligomer mass ratio (moligomer/mmonomer+dimer) from the IHS model, indicating the importance of self-association (in addition to the direct influence of the attractive PPI) on the viscosity.

Conformational Transitions of Polymer Chains in Solutions Characterized by Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer
摘要: The critical overlap concentration C* is an important concept in polymer solutions and is defined as the boundary between dilute and semidilute regimes. In this study, the chain conformational changes of polystyrene (PS) with both high (Mn = 200,000 Da) and low (Mn = 13,000 Da) molecular weights in cis-decalin were compared by intrachain fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The random labeling of donor and acceptor chromophores strategy was employed for long PS chains, whereas chain-end labeling was used for short PS chains. By monitoring the spectroscopic intensity ratio between acceptor and donor, the concentration dependence on chain conformation from dilute to semidilute solutions was determined. Both long and short chains exhibit a conformational transition concentration, above which the polymer chains begin to collapse with concentration significantly. Interestingly, for randomly labeled polymer long chains, such concentration is consistent with C* determined from the viscosity result, below which only slight conformational change of polymer chain takes place. However, for the chain-end labeled short chain, the conformational transition concentration takes place earlier than C*, below which no significant polymer conformation change is observed.

Viscosity of chalcogenide glass-formers
摘要: Chalcogenide glass-formers are being used in a remarkable range of various optoelectronic, photonics, photoconducting, sensing and memory device applications. The knowledge of viscosity is essential for the processing of any glass-forming material, in particular for the fabrication of precise optical elements, which is the main application field of chalcogenide glasses. This work presents an extensive collection of all available viscosity data for chalcogenides, including the measurement methods. The Mauro–Yue–Ellison–Gupta–Allan (MYEGA), Arrhenius and VFT equations are used to fit the temperature dependences of viscosity. The viscosity glass transition temperatures, fragilities and apparent activation energies are calculated from these fits. Consequently, these parameters are discussed with regard to the compositional evolution of the respective chalcogenide systems.

The Oscillation Dynamics of Droplets Subject to Electrowetting Actuation
摘要: The dynamic behavior of an Electrowetting-on-Dielectrics (EWOD) actuation process can be linked to certain fluid properties of the actuated polar liquid droplet. After actuation, inertia will lead to droplet oscillations where the contact angle asymptotically approaches the newly created surface tension equilibrium value. The decay behavior, frequency and amplitude of these oscillations can be related to material parameters such as density, viscosity and mass. In this work we study the characteristics of these oscillations, present simulation results and develop a measurement setup for first observations of oscillations on deionized water droplets. We show that there is a big difference between two grounding schemes, in particular regarding the dynamic movement of the liquid-gas interface. It turns out that only an electrical grounding from below leads to utilizable oscillations. Finally we point towards applications for future Lab-on-a-Chip applications.

Processing and Characterization of ZrO<sub>2</sub>-TiO<sub>2</sub> Porous Films by Dip Coating for Application as Environmental Sensors
摘要: The main objective of this work is to study and characterize porous ZrO2-TiO2 films on alumina substrates that will be used for the production of porous ceramic sensors for the monitoring of air humidity in environments subject to the incidence of solar radiation. For the production of the films the dip coating technique was adopted. A viscosity study was performed to obtain stable suspensions of ZrO2-TiO2 in isopropyl alcohol with the para-aminobenzoic acid deflocculant (PABA), at concentrations of 10, 12.5 and 15% by weight of solids. X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterizations were performed for the identification of crystalline phases, morphological analyzes by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and chemical analyzes by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The results allowed to determine the minimum value of viscosity and amount of deflocculant to stabilize the suspension. The sensor elements in the form of 1:1 (weight) ZrO2 - TiO2 porous films showed great potential to be used as sensors for the measurement of relative humidity the size and distribution of desirable pores in the porous film for application as moisture sensors was obtained with 12.5 and 15 % by weight ZrO2-TiO2

Medium viscosity effect on fluorescent properties of Sn(IV)-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin complexes in buffer solutions
摘要: Supramolecular triads consisting of hydrophilic Sn(IV)-tetra(4-sulfophenyl)-porphyrin and two axial guests such as propylphenol, tyrosine, and 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-benzoxazole were synthesized. The structures of synthesized complexes were identified by experimental spectroscopic and quantum-chemical simulation methods, and their fluorescent properties were studied in various viscosity media (mixed phosphate buffer-glycerin solvents of different composition). The effect of axial ligand structure on the fluorescent properties of these triads (due to the hydrogen bonding or π-π stacking between the components of ?host-guest? systems) is discussed. The potential use of synthesized complexes as environmental probes of local viscosity is proposed.

Interfacial Tensions and Viscosities in Multiphase Systems by Surface Light Scattering (SLS)
摘要: Hypothesis Multiphase systems are relevant in many fields of process engineering. For process and product design in connection with multiphase systems, knowledge on the thermophysical properties of the individual phases such as viscosity and on the interfacial tension between these is required but often lacking in literature. Experiments In the present study, the applicability of surface light scattering (SLS) for the simultaneous measurement of interfacial tensions and viscosities in multiphase systems in macroscopic thermodynamic equilibrium is demonstrated. For two model systems consisting of n-decane and methanol as well as n-dodecane and methanol forming a vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium at atmospheric pressure, surface fluctuations which show an oscillatory behavior at the vapor-liquid and liquid-liquid interface could be associated with hydrodynamic modes. Findings From an exact theoretical description of the dynamics of the surface fluctuations, absolute data for the dynamic viscosities of the two liquid phases as well as the vapor-liquid and liquid-liquid interfacial tensions could be determined at temperatures between (333 and 358) K with total measurement uncertainties (k = 2) down to about 2%. For both systems studied at temperatures close to the upper critical solution temperature, the viscosities of the two liquid phases approach each other and the liquid-liquid interfacial tension tends to zero.
