State-of-the-Art in Electrophilic Trifluoromethylthiolation Reagents

Abstract: This work proposed a label-free, cost-effective and fairly sensitive electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) strategy for the specific detection of lysozyme based on the hemin/G-quadruplex hybrid. Gold nanoparticles were spread onto the chitosan thin-film as substrate to adsorb thiolated captures: a hairpin-structured DNA, integrating dual head-tail connected functional domains: one aptamer sequence for lysozyme and the other for hemin (iron(III) proto-porphyrin IX). In the presence of the both, the hairpin conformation unfolded and transformed into the hemin/G-quadruplex motif, which quenched the ECL emission of underlaid quantum dots significantly via the consumption of dissolved oxygen as endogenous coreactant. This construction enabled a wide linear response to lysozyme, ranging from 20 pg·mL−1 to 5 µg·mL−1, with a detection limit as low as 4.95 pg·mL−1 (e.g. 9.4 pmol·L−1), demonstrating the prospective utilization of DNA technologies in bioanalysis.

Critical Role of Molecular Electrostatic Potential on Charge Generation in Organic Solar Cells

Abstract: Revealing the charge generation is a crucial step to understand the organic photovoltaics. Recent development in non-fullerene organic solar cells (OSCs) indicates efficient charge separation even ...
