Self-assembly of amphiphilic fluorescent dyes showing aggregate-induced enhanced emission: temperature dependence of molecular alignment and intermolecular interaction in aqueous environment.

چکیده
A 1-cyano-1,2-bis(biphenyl)ethene derivative having hexa(ethylene glycol) groups as amphiphilic side chains showed aggregate-induced enhanced emission in water; upon heating the intensity of the enhanced emission was attenuated in a lower temperature range than the temperature range where exciton interaction is still effective.

Enhanced EGFP Fluorescence Emission in Presence of PEG Aqueous Solutions and PIB1000-PEG6000-PIB1000 Copolymer Vesicles
An EGFP construct interacting with the PIB1000-PEG6000-PIB1000 vesicles surface reported a ~2-fold fluorescence emission enhancement. Because of the constructs nature with the amphiphilic peptide inserted into the PIB core, EGFP is expected to experience a "pure" PEG environment. To unravel this phenomenon PEG/water solutions at different molecular weights and concentrations were used. Already ...
متن کاملComputational Models for the Formation of Protocell Structures
There have been various attempts to simulate the self-assembly process of lipid aggregates by computers. However, due to the computationally complex nature of the problem, previous simulations were often conducted with unrealistic simplifications of the molecules' morphology, intermolecular interactions, and the environment in which the lipid molecules interact. In this article, we present a ne...
متن کاملMolecular tagging thermometry with adjustable temperature sensitivity
We report an extension to the technique of molecular tagging thermometry which allows for adjustable temperature sensitivity. The temperature dependence of laser-induced phosphorescence of the water-soluble phosphorescent triplex (1-BrNp MbCD ROH) is used to conduct temperature measurements in aqueous flows. It is shown that the temperature sensitivity of phosphorescence intensity can be adjust...
متن کاملSelf-assembly and modular functionalization of three-dimensional crystals from oppositely charged proteins
Multicomponent crystals and nanoparticle superlattices are a powerful approach to integrate different materials into ordered nanostructures. Well-developed, especially DNA-based, methods for their preparation exist, yet most techniques concentrate on molecular and synthetic nanoparticle systems in non-biocompatible environment. Here we describe the self-assembly and characterization of binary s...

We synthesized an amphiphilic coil-rod-coil triblock molecule consisting of hexa-p-phenylene as a rod block and poly(ethylene oxide) with the number of repeating units of 17 as coil blocks and investigated aggregation behavior in aqueous environment. The rod-coil molecule was observed to aggregate into discrete micelles consisting of hydrophobic disklike rod bundles encapsulated by hydrophilic ...
