We also discuss the challenges associated with their use in biological systems, including intracellular delivery and molecular targeting. In doing so, we hope to provide practical guidance for biologists and continue to bridge the fields of super-resolution imaging and nanoparticle engineering to support their mutual advancement.

Research paper thumbnail of Fluorescent and colourimetric 1, 8-naphthalimide-appended chemosensors for the tracking of metal ions: selected examples from the year 2010 to 2017

Amongst the most widely employed fluorophores for the development of fluorescent and colourimetric chemosensors is the 1, 8-naphthalimide fluorophore, which is distinctive due to its possession of outstanding photophysical properties unequalled by other fluorophores. Many reported literatures are replete with employment of 1, 8-naphthalimide as a unique fluorophore for the construction of chemosensors for the monitoring of metal ions

Research paper thumbnail of Effect Of Position of Substituents on the Exhaustion and Thermodynamic Parameters of 6 Monoazo Acid and Disperse Dyes on Nylon 6

The coupling components used were 1-naphthol and 2-naphthol. The different properties of the dyes such as molecular structure, molar extinction coefficient, and percentage exhaustion were determined. The thermodynamic parameters of the four dyes on nylon fabrics were also determined. The results showed that the dyes have very good extinction coefficient, thus can be of commercial significance. The standard affinities of the dyes on nylon varied between 8.59 kJmol-1 to 25.51 kJmol-1 implying very high equilibrium % exhaustion. The implication of the standard affinities is that dye with-∆µ 0 25.51kJmol-1 has the highest % exhaustion, which means that there are correlation between standard affinity of a dye on fabric and the equilibrium exhaustion.

Research paper thumbnail of Fluorescent, colourimetric, and ratiometric probes based on diverse fluorophore motifs for mercuric(II) ion (Hg2+) sensing: highlights from 2011 to 2019

Chemicke Zvesti, 2020

Over the years, there has been a great deal of work in the use of fluorescent, colourimetric, and/or ratiometric probes for Hg2+ recognition. Essentially, the purpose of this review article is to give an overview of the advances made in the constructions of such probes based on the works reported in the period from 2011 to 2019. Discussion in this review work has been tailored to the kinds of fluorophore scaffolds used for the constructions of the probes reported. Selected examples of probes under each fluorophore subcategory were discussed with mentions of the typically determined parameters in an analytical sensing operation, including modulation in fluorescence intensity, optimal pH, detection li...

Here we review how nanocontainers have been used to enhance these techniques.
