The dependence of spectral properties of Mg2+ and NH4+ salt of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (Mg-(ANS)2 and NH4-ANS, respectively) on the dye concentration and solvent composition was investigated by means of steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. We have shown that the increase in ANS concentrations leads to changes in the shape of absorption and fluorescence spectra of the dye, accompanied by the decrease in its fluorescence decay time values. Such changes, observed in aqueous and organic solvents for both salts of ANS, reflect the existence of self-association of the dye molecules. The decrease in fluorescence intensity induced by self-association of the probe molecules is too small to explain a weak fluorescence of ANS in water. At the same time, it expounds the difference between the decay times of protein-embedded ANS molecules upon interaction of this probe with native and molten globule proteins. 相似文献

We have studied the fluorescence emission by two-photon excitation of four dyes widely used for bioimaging studies, rhodamine 6G, fluorescein, pyrene and indo-1 at the single molecule level. The single dye molecules, spread on a glass substrate by spin coating, show a constant fluorescence output until a sudden transition to a dark state very close to the background. The bleaching time that is found to vary in the series pyrene, indo-1, fluorescein and rhodamine 6G from the fastest to the slowest one respectively, has a Gaussian distribution indicating that the observed behavior is not due to photobleaching. Moreover, the bleaching time decreases with the glass substrate temperature reaching a vanishing nonmeasurable value for a limiting temperature whose value is found in the same series as for the bleaching time, from the lowest to the highest temperature respectively. The observed bleaching shows a clear correlation to the amount of absorbed power not reirradiated as fluorescence and to the complexity of the molecule. These observations are interpreted as thermal bleaching where the temperature increase is induced by the two-photon absorption of the single dyes as confirmed also by numerical simulations. 相似文献

The objective of our work has been the microencapsulation of dyes with lecithin from soybean, with the formation of liposomes, as a substitute for synthetic auxiliaries so as to improve the quality of the effluent. Current scenarios promote the disintegration and leakage of the liposomes, such as, changes in temperature, pH and the use of surfactants. Since dyeing process is a mix of all these parameters, we pretended to study each one separately. Rhodamine 6G fluorescence is known to be concentration quenched through the formation of non-fluorescent dimmers and, additionally, through the energy transfer from rhodamine monomer to these dimmers (Baptista ALF, Coutinho PJG, Real Oliveira MECD, Gomes JINR. Proceedings of 13th International Symposium of Surfactants, SIS 2000, Gainesville, USA, 2000). The temperature, the surfactant and pH induce a release of the encapsulated dye resulting in rhodamine dilution and consequently alterations in the dimerization/binding equilibrium. The experimental spectra indicate that rhodamine binds almost completely to liposomes. The decomposition of the rhodamine fluorescence spectra allowed us to determine the percentage of released dye during a simulated dyeing process, and allowed us to conclude that the dimerization process occurs mainly at the inner interfaces. The amount of dye released induced by temperature changes was greater in the presence of surfactant. 相似文献

The fluorescence emission of single rhodamine dye molecules (rhodamine 6G and rhodamine 630) at room temperature was analyzed by using scanning confocal laser microscopy in conjunction with polarization analysis, fluorescence spectroscopy, time-resolved detection (minutes to microseconds), and excitation saturation. Results are presented and discussed 1) for samples with dye molecules at the glass-air interface and 2) covered with an additional thin protective polymer film (polyvinylbutyral). Under the polymer layer, the single-molecule fluorescence was more stable than the glass-air interface. This result may be explained by fewer spontaneous variations of the fluorescence rate, polarization changes, spectral shifts, and longer photochemical lifetimes. 相似文献

In the present investigation, steady‐state and time‐resolved fluorescence with the combination of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopic techniques were applied to study the interactions of the well‐known dye rhodamine 6 G (R6G) with the haem protein human myoglobin (Mb). From the analysis of the results it appears that the static type of fluorescence quenching mechanism is primarily involved, due to ground‐state interactions. Although considerable overlapping of fluorescence emission of the dye R6G with the absorption of Mb in the Q‐band region exists, the possibility of occurrences of the excitational singlet–singlet non‐radiative energy transfer process from R6G to Mb appears to be unlikely, according to time‐resolved fluorescence measurements. From the determinations of the thermodynamic parameters, it was apparent that the combined effect of van der Waals' interactions and hydrogen bonding plays a vital role in Mb–R6G interactions. Induced circular dichroism (ICD) studies demonstrate the possibility of interactions between R6G and Mb. The binding constants, number of binding sites and thermodynamic parameters have been computed. From CD measurements it is apparent that the binding of the dye R6G with the haem protein Mb induces negligible conformational changes in the protein and Mb retains its secondary structure and helicity when it interacts with R6G. The present detailed studies on the interactions with Mb should be helpful in further advancement of medical diagnostics and biotechnology. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The fluorophore rhodamine B is often used in biological assays. It is inexpensive, robust under a variety of reaction conditions, can be covalently linked to bioactive molecules, and has suitable spectral properties in terms of absorption and fluorescence wavelength. Nonetheless, there are some drawbacks: it can readily form a spirolactam compound, which is nonfluorescent, and therefore may not be the dye of choice for all fluorescence microscopy applications. Herein this spirolactam formation was observed by purifying such a labeled peptoid with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and monitored in detail by making a series of analytical HPLC runs over time. Additionally, a small library of eight peptoids with rhodamine B as label was synthesized. Analysis of the absorption properties of these molecules demonstrated that the problem of fluorescence loss can be overcome by coupling secondary amines with rhodamine B. 相似文献

The present work investigates the possibility of a rapid estimation of critical micelle concentration (cmc) of surfactants by means of soluble fluorescent probes. The effect of nonionic or differently charged surfactants on the fluorescent properties of the anionic 8-anilino-1-naphtalenesulfonic acid magnesium salt (ANS) or cationic rhodamine 6G has been investigated. The possibility of cmc evaluation depends on the appropriate selection of the dye-detergent couple. ANS has to be used with anionic surfactants; on the other hand, rhodamine 6G has to be used with cationic detergents. Both ANS and rhodamine 6G have been proved to be effective with either zwitterionic or nonionic surfactants. Plots of ANS fluorescence increase or rhodamine 6G decrease vs surfactant concentration give two straight lines whose intersection indicates the cmc of the detergent. Under all these conditions the fluorescent probe does not interfere with the micellization process. Excitation of the fluorescent probes at the isosbestic point does not affect the evaluation of the cmc of the detergent. The method applies for linear or steroid surfactants and is independent of the cmc value within a wide range of concentrations. 相似文献

We have investigated the kinetics of interaction of cationic fluorescent lipophiles (dyes) rhodamine 123, rhodamine 6G, tetramethyl rhodamine ethyl ester, safranine O, 1,1'-diethyloxacarbocyanine, 1,1'-diethyloxadicarbocyanine, and 1,1'-diethylthiadicarbocyanine iodide with isolated respiring rat-liver mitochondria (RLM). Dye flux across the RLM inner membrane was measured by following the kinetics of fluorescence signal change after mixing of dye and RLM. The time course of fluorescence was analysed in terms of a kinetic model of the binding and transport processes involved. The rate constants of dye influx and efflux were extracted from the observed effect on the apparent time constant of fluorescence change to equilibrium intensity upon mixing dye with increasing concentrations of RLM. From the influx rate constants obtained, the apparent permeability constants for dye influx (at zero potential) across the membrane were calculated and ranged from 3 to 140 x 10(-4) cm/s. The influx rate constant was found to be linearly related to relative dye lipophilicity, as predicted by the model. As another test of the model, from the ratio of the influx and efflux rate constants, the apparent trans-membrane potential, psi, was calculated and found generally to agree with reported values, but to depend on the lipophilicity of the dye used. Not predicted by the simple model was a dissymmtry observed in the influx and efflux time constants for fluorescence change to equilibrium intensity. Inferences are made relating to the utility of these dyes as probes of psi. 相似文献

The intensity of rhodamine 6G fluorescence was found to be a useful scale for measuring the membrane potential in synaptosomes. The fluorescence of rhodamine 6G in synaptosomal suspensions increases with depolarization in the synaptosomes induced by the replacement of cations in the medium or by the addition of agents known to depolarize the membrane potential. Considering the character of the dye, we have derived an equation which gives the relation between the fluorescence intensity of the dye and the membrane potential. The change in membrane potential (diffusion potential) of synaptosomes was calculated using the equation. The calculated membrane potential was proportional to the logarithm of the K+ concentration above 20 mM, and the slope of membrane potential against log[K+] was about 52 mV per decade of concentration. The permeability ratio (; the ratio of the permeability constants of a given cation, X+, and K+) was estimated from the calculated membrane potential. 相似文献

The fluorescence quenchers BHQ1 and BHQ2 can be modified by trace amounts of ammonium persulfate, used for initiating gel polymerization, in electrophoretic purification of TaqMan probes using a denaturing polyacrylamide gel. The case study of BHQ1 quencher has demonstrated that a Boyland–Sims reaction proceeds in the presence of ammonium persulfate to give the corresponding sulfate. The absorption maximum of the resulting quencher shifts to the short-wavelength region relative to the absorption maximum of the initial BHQ1. The TaqMan probe containing such a quencher is less efficient as compared with the probe carrying an unmodified BHQ1. The presence of fluorescein in TaqMan probe plays decisive role in this transformation: the quencher modification proceeds at a considerably lower rate when the fluorescein is absent or replaced with a rhodamine dye (for example, R6G). It is assumed that the observed reaction can take place in two ways—both in darkness and in the reaction of the quencher in an excited state due to energy transfer from the fluorophore irradiated by light. 相似文献

The membrane potential of cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells was assessed by a fluorescent probe as an alternative to direct methods. We used the fluorescent cationic dye rhodamine 6G, a lipophilic probe with high permeability in cell membranes. A linear relationship was obtained between fluorescence intensity (F.I.) and membrane potential (Em) as a function of the extracellular Na(+) concentration in the presence of the ionophore gramicidin. From the equation derived from the linear relationship F.I. = -0.004 Em + 0. 03 (P < 0.001), the fluorescence measurements could be converted to membrane potential. The resting plasma membrane potential obtained was -65 +/- 7 mV. Nigericin (27 microM), ouabain (1 mM), and bradykinin (20 nM) induced a decrease in F.I. (depolarization), while ATP (25-100 microM) induced an increase in F.I. (hyperpolarization). Mitochondrial membrane potential inhibitors myxothiazol (3 microM) and oligomycin (4 microM) did not influence F. I. measured in the cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. The results indicate that rhodamine 6G can be used as a sensitive and specific dye in studies of substances that affect the membrane potential of endothelial cells. 相似文献

Ehrlich ascites tumor cells were permeabilized using low concentrations of digitonin, 8 micrograms/10(6) cells. Permeabilization was monitored by the assay of lactate dehydrogenase released into the incubation medium and of hexokinase partially bound to mitochondria. Integrity of the cellular organelles was unaffected as determined by assay of the mitochondrial enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase. Cells were stained with rhodamine 123 as a mitochondrial specific dye and propidium iodide/mithramycin as DNA specific dyes. The green fluorescence of bound rhodamine 123 versus red fluorescence of DNA in individual cells was analysed by dual parameter flow cytometry. Incubation of cells with inhibitors of mitochondrial energy metabolism, such as, potassium cyanide and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone abolished binding of rhodamine 123. Flow cytometric data allowed a correlation between cell position in the mitotic cycle with total mitochondrial activity. In addition, comparison of the characteristics of propidium iodide and ethidium bromide staining further elucidated the molecular basis of the staining with the positively-charged fluorescent dye rhodamine 123. 相似文献

A fluorescence quenching competitive immunoassay in micro droplets was applied to the sensitive detection of the pyrethroid insecticide, esfenvalerate. Laser induced fluorescence from rhodamine dye was used as a marker. The competitive immunoreaction was performed in micro droplets generated by a vibrating orifice aerosol generator system with a 10-microm diameter orifice. Fluorescence that was emitted from the droplets was detected by a 1/8 m imaging spectrograph with a 512 x 512 thermoelectrically cooled, charged-coupled device camera. The conjugate of esfenvalerate with rhodamine exhibited similar fluorescence to that of pure rhodamine 6G. When anti-esfenvalerate antibodies were added to the droplets, the fluorescence decreased. The reduction in emission was due to a strong quenching effect that arises from the interaction between the protein and rhodamine molecules following the antigen-antibody reaction. When a sample of esfenvalerate was added to the droplets, the release of the conjugated rhodamine from the antigen-antibody complex allowed the fluorescence signal to recover. An assay in a picoliter droplet sample was shown to enable detection down to approximately 0.1 nM. A very small mass of analyte could be detected with this method. A sample of river water was used to gauge the impact of matrix effects and was shown to give rise to negligible interference with the immunoassay. 相似文献

Rapid assessment of bacterial viability and vitality by rhodamine 123 and flow cytometry 总被引:7,自引:2,他引:5
A.S. KAPRELYANTS AND D.B. KELL. 1992. The fluorescent dye rhodamine 123 (Rh 123) is concentrated by microbial cells in an uncoupler-sensitive fashion. Steady-state fluorescence measurements with Micrococcus luteus indicated that provided the added dye concentration is below approximately 1 mmol/1, uptake is fully uncoupler-sensitive and is not accompanied by significant self-quenching of the fluorescence of accumulated dye molecules. 'Viable' and 'non-viable' cells are easily and quantitatively distinguished in a flow cytometer by the extent to which they accumulate the dye. The viability of a very slowly growing chemostat culture of Mic. luteus is apparently only about40–50%, as judged by plate counts, but most of the 'non-viable' cells can be resuscitated by incubation of the culture in nutrient medium before plating. The extent to which individual cells accumulate rhodamine 123 can be rapidly assessed by flow cytometry, and reflects the three distinguishable physiological states exhibited by the culture ('non-viable', 'viable' and 'non-viable-but-resuscitable'). Gram-negative bacteria do not accumulate rhodamine 123 significantly because their outer membrane is not permeable to it; a simple treatment overcomes this. Flow cytometry using rhodamine 123 should prove of general utility for the rapid assessment of microbial viability and vitality. 相似文献

Resistance to antimicrobial and chemotherapeutic agents is a significant clinical problem. Overexpression of multidrug efflux pumps often creates broad‐spectrum resistance in cancers and pathogens. We describe a mutation, A666G, in the yeast ABC transporter Pdr5 that shows greater resistance to most of the tested compounds than does an isogenic wild‐type strain. This mutant exhibited enhanced resistance without increasing either the amount of protein in the plasma membrane or the ATPase activity. In fluorescence quenching transport assays with rhodamine 6G in purified plasma membrane vesicles, the initial rates of rhodamine 6G fluorescence quenching of both the wild type and mutant showed a strong dependence on the ATP concentration, but were about twice as high in the latter. Plots of the initial rate of fluorescence quenching versus ATP concentration exhibited strong cooperativity that was further enhanced in the A666G mutant. Resistance to imazalil sulfate was about 3–4x as great in the A666G mutant strain as in the wild type. When this transport substrate was used to inhibit the rhodamine 6G transport, the A666G mutant inhibition curves also showed greater cooperativity than the wild‐type strain. Our results suggest a novel and important mechanism: under selection, Pdr5 mutants can increase drug resistance by improving cooperative interactions between drug transport sites. 相似文献

The purity of 27 commercial pyronin and rhodamine samples was studied by thin-layer chromatography and visible spectroscopy. Seven different red dyes were detected and separated. The chemical identities of 6 of these were established by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The identities of samples sold as rhodamine B and rhodamine 6G were as labelled 8 out of 9 times, the pyronin (G)Y samples were as labelled 5 out of 8 times and the 10 samples sold as acridine red, pyronin B, rhodamine 36 and rhodamine S were always incorrectly labelled. The dextrin and salt contents of the dyes were determined by solvent extraction of the dye with dry methanol or ethanol. Amounts of dextrin and salt varied from none to nearly 90%. Practical methods for identification, separation of coloured components and removal of dextrin and salt are given. 相似文献

In this work we return to the problem of the determination of ligand-receptor binding stoichiometry and binding constants. In many cases the ligand is a fluorescent dye which has low fluorescence quantum yield in free state but forms highly fluorescent complex with target receptor. That is why many researchers use dye fluorescence for determination of its binding parameters with receptor, but they leave out of account that fluorescence intensity is proportional to the part of the light absorbed by the solution rather than to the concentration of bound dye. We showed how ligand-receptor binding parameters can be determined by spectrophotometry of the solutions prepared by equilibrium microdialysis. We determined the binding parameters of ANS - human serum albumin (HSA) and ANS - bovine serum albumin (BSA) interaction, absorption spectra, concentration and molar extinction coefficient, as well as fluorescence quantum yield of the bound dye. It was found that HSA and BSA have two binding modes with significantly different affinity to ANS. Correct determination of the binding parameters of ligand-receptor interaction is important for fundamental investigations and practical aspects of molecule medicine and pharmaceutics. The data obtained for albumins are important in connection with their role as drugs transporters. 相似文献

A strategy for quantification of multiple protein isoforms from a complex sample background is demonstrated, combining isotopomeric rhodamine 6G (R6G) labels and surface-enhanced Raman in polyacrylamide matrix. The procedure involves isotope-encoding by lysine-labeling with (R6G) active ester reagents, isoform separation by 2-DGE, fluorescence quantification using internal standardization to water, and silver nanoparticle deposition followed by surface-enhanced Raman detection. R6G sample encoding and standardization enabled the determination of total protein concentration and the distribution of specific isoforms using the combined detection approach of water-referenced fluorescence spectral imaging and ratiometric quantification. A detection limit of approximately 13.5 picomolar R6G-labeled protein was determined for the surface-enhanced Raman in a gel matrix (15-fold lower than fluorescence). High quantification accuracies for small differences in protein populations at low nanogram abundance were demonstrated for human GMP synthetase (hGMPS) either as purified protein samples in a single-point determination mode (3% relative standard deviation, RSD%) or as HCT116 human cancer cellular lysate in an imaging application (with 16% RSD%). These results represent a prototype for future applications of isotopic surface-enhanced resonance Raman scatter to quantification of protein distributions. 相似文献

Three new acridine dyes, 3-dimethylamino-6-methoxyacridine 1, 3-amino-6-methoxyacridine 2 and 3-amino-7-methoxyacridine 3, have been prepared and tested as fluorochromes of LM- and HeLa-cells. The dyes are basic compounds (pKA: 1 8,76; 2 8,01; 3 7,65) and form cations in neutral or acidic aqueous solutions by addition of a proton to the aza-nitrogen atom of the heterocycle. The fluorochromes stain fixed LM- and HeLa-cells at pH = 6. The fluorescence shows metachromasy similar to the staining with acridine orange AO according to the technique of Bertalanffy. But there is less fading of the fluorescence. The dye 1 is the most suitable fluorochrome of the series. It was studied in detail. Using optimized staining conditions the fluorescence of the nucleus is yellow-green that of the cytoplasm and the nucleoli orange or brownish-red. Enzymatic digestion experiments show that the dye cations are bound to DNA in the nucleus and to RNA in the cytoplasm or nucleoli. The absorption and emission spectra of the stained cells have been studied by means of microspectrophotometry. The absorption spectra of the nucleus and the cytoplasm are very similar. The maximum of the long wave length absorption of both occurs at 21400 cm-1 (467 nm) with a shoulder at ca 20100 cm-1 (498 nm). The fluorescence spectra of nucleus and cytoplasm of metachromatically stained cells are different. The emission maximum of the cytoplasm and nucleoli, 16200 cm-1 (617 nm), is red-shifted relative to the maximum of the nucleus, 18200 cm-1 (549 nm). This shift causes the metachromatic fluorescence effect. In addition we studied the concentration dependence of the absorption and fluorescence spectra of the cation 1 in aqueous solution, pH = 6, in the concentration range 6 X 10(-6)-6 X 10(-4) M. Shape and maximum of the long wave length absorption and emission depend only slightly on the concentration: Mean value of absorption maximum ca 21500 cm-1 (465 nm), shoulder at ca 20300 cm-1 (493 nm), fluorescence maximum ca 18300 cm-1 (547 nm). With growing concentration diminishes the molar absorptivity. This decrease in absorptivity and isosbestic points in the absorption spectra indicate the formation of dimers with growing dye concentration. The absorption spectra of the metachromatically stained cells and of the dye in aqueous solution are very similar.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献
