White Light Emission by Simultaneous One Pot Encapsulation of Dyes into One-Dimensional Channelled Aluminophosphate
(MDPI, 2020-06-16)
By simultaneous occlusion of rationally chosen dyes, emitting in the blue, green and red region of the electromagnetic spectrum, into the one-dimensional channels of a magnesium-aluminophosphate with AEL-zeolitic type ...
Acetoxymethyl-BODIPY dyes: a universal platform for the fluorescent labeling of nucleophiles
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022)
Current methods for the preparation of functional small-molecule fluorophores generally require labor-intensive, multi-step synthetic routes for all the major chromophoric groups. In spite of recent significant contributions ...
Functionalized Fluorescent Silica Nanoparticles for Bioimaging of Cancer Cells
(MDPI, 2020-09-29)
Functionalized fluorescent silica nanoparticles were designed and synthesized to selectively target cancer cells for bioimaging analysis. The synthesis method and characterization of functionalized fluorescent silica ...
Functionalization of Photosensitized Silica Nanoparticles for Advanced Photodynamic Therapy of Cancer
(MDPI, 2021-06-21)
BODIPY dyes have recently attracted attention as potential photosensitizers. In this work, commercial and novel photosensitizers (PSs) based on BODIPY chromophores (haloBODIPYs and orthogonal dimers strategically designed ...
Red haloBODIPYs as theragnostic agents: The role of the substitution at meso position
(Elsevier, 2022-01-30)
Three different molecular designs based on BODIPY dye have been proposed as photosensitizers (PSs) for photodynamic therapy (PDT) by the inclusion of halogen atoms (Iodine) at 2,6-positions and with extended conjugation ...
Photosensitizer-Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Combination for Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy
(Wiley, 2023-05)
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are widely known for their versatile applications. One of the most extended is as drug delivery systems for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. This review compiles the most ...
One-Directional Antenna Systems: Energy Transfer from Monomers to JAggregates within 1D Nanoporous Aluminophosphates
(ACS, 2017-10-01)
A cyanine dye (PIC) was occluded into two 1D-nanopoporus Mg-containing aluminophosphates with different pore size (MgAPO-5 and MgAPO-36 with AFI and ATS zeolitic structure types, with cylindrical channels of 7.3 Å diameter ...
Tuning Light Emission towards White Light from a Naphthalenediimide-Based Entangled Metal-Organic Framework by Mixing Aromatic Guest Molecules
(MDPI, 2018-02)
Taking advantage of the outstanding properties of a naphthalenediimide-based entangled porous coordination polymer, a simple strategy for the achievement of white light emission is herein presented. The dynamic structural ...
Exploiting the photophysical features of DMAN template in ITQ-51 zeotype in the search for FRET energy transfer
(RSC, 2024-02)
The combination between photoactive molecules and inorganic structures is of great interest for the development of advanced materials in the field of optics. Particularly, zeotypes with extra-large pore size are attractive ...
Enhancing the Photocatalytic Conversion of Pt(IV) Substrates by Flavoprotein Engineering
(ACS, 2021-05-07)
Our recent work demonstrates that certain flavoproteins can catalyze the redox activation of Pt(IV) prodrug complexes under light irradiation. Herein, we used site-directed mutagenesis on the mini singlet oxygen generator ...
