Journal ArticleDOI
Formation of Fluorescent Metal (Au, Ag) Nanoclusters Capped in Bovine Serum Albumin Followed by Fluorescence and Spectroscopy
Xavier Le Guével,Benjamin Hötzer,Gregor Jung,Klaus Hollemeyer,Vanessa Trouillet,Marc Schneider +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of the pH and the nature of the reducing agent to the size and the oxidation state of metal clusters was investigated in the presence of noble metal nanoclusters.
Journal ArticleDOI
NIR-emitting fluorescent gold nanoclusters doped in silica nanoparticles
TL;DR: In this paper, a new family of fluorescent core-shell nanoparticles using protein-stabilised gold nanoclusters is described, which showed a high monodispersity and stability over more than 5 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visualization of Cu2+ uptake and release in plant cells by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy
TL;DR: A novel noninvasive, real‐time fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy method for visualizing uptake and release of divalent copper ions (Cu2+) in vivo and the spatially resolved visualization of Cu2+ distribution in‚vivo is demonstrated in prokaryote and eukaryote cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of Copper(II) Ion Concentration by Lifetime Measurements of Green Fluorescent Protein
TL;DR: It is reported that the presence of copper(II) ions leads to a decrease of the fluorescence lifetime (τfl) of GFP and evidence for Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) as the responsible quenching mechanism is provided and it is envisioned that Cu2 + can be quantified noninvasively and in real-time by measuring τfl of G FP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of copper homeostasis in plant cells by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy.
TL;DR: Time-lapse microscopy enables the following of cellular processes and the study of relevant transport mechanisms of copper in plant cells and the possibility of applying this concept for the investigation of Cu redistribution and storage at the subcellular level is discussed.
