Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 48, December 3, 2025.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Synthesis and Photodynamic Activities of Pyrazolyl and Cyclopropyl Derivatives of Purpurin-18 Methyl Ester and Purpurin-18-N-butylimide [PDF]

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, 2011
To date, many groups focused on the development of new PS to afford selective photo-dynamic effect through a photoirradiation results in a genera-tion of singlet oxygen to destroy the tumour cells. Chlorins are second-generation PSs and good candidates for PDT on account of the long wavelength absorption within the photodynamic window (650 - 800 nm)

Neuroprotective Effects of Purpurin Against Ischemic Damage via MAPKs, Bax, and Oxidative Stress Cascades in the Gerbil Hippocampus

, 2022
Purpurin has various effects, including anti-inflammatory effects, and can efficiently cross the blood–brain barrier. In the present study, we investigated the effects of purpurin on oxidative stress in HT22 cells and mild brain damage in the gerbil ...

A systematic review of natural colourants and trend forecasting practices for the textile and fashion industry

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 801-827, December 2025.
Abstract Recent global interest in sustainable practices in the textile and fashion industry has inspired stakeholders to readopt natural colourants. However, integrating these practices raises several questions regarding the latest developments in natural colourant and trend forecasting practices in the textile and fashion industry.

A genetically engineered purpurin/retinol-binding protein hybrid that binds to transthyretin

, 1992
A mini-gene encoding rat retinol-binding protein (RBP) and a cDNA encoding chicken purpurin were separately transfected into HeLa cells. In contrast to RBP, expressed purpurin did not bind to transthyretin (TTR).

Exploration of the natural dye alizarin for supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing of polyester, polyamide and cellulose acetate fibres

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 889-908, December 2025.
Abstract Conventional textile dyeing utilises large amounts of water and generates significant amounts of wastewater, highlighting the need to utilise more sustainable dyeing methods. Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) dyeing offers a zero‐water, zero‐wastewater alternative with reduced energy requirements and carbon dioxide recyclability. While both

Screening in larval zebrafish reveals tissue-specific distribution of fifteen fluorescent compounds

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2017
The zebrafish is a prominent vertebrate model for low-cost in vivo whole organism screening. In our recent screening of the distribution patterns of fluorescent compounds in live zebrafish larvae, fifteen compounds with tissue-specific distributions were
