Extraction, Identification and Photo-Physical Characterization of Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) Carotenoids

Foods, 2017
Carotenoid pigments were extracted and purified from persimmon fruits using accelerated solvent extraction (ASE). Eleven pigments were isolated and five of them were clearly identified as all-trans-violaxanthine, all-trans-lutein, all-trans-zeaxanthin ...

Subcellular Singlet Oxygen and Cell Death: Location Matters

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2020
We developed a tool for targeted generation of singlet oxygen using light activation of a genetically encoded fluorogen-activating protein complexed with a unique dye molecule that becomes a potent photosensitizer upon interaction with the protein.

Parallel fluorescence and phosphorescence monitoring of singlet oxygen photosensitization in rats [PDF]

Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2015
The time- and spectral-resolved set-up for measurements of weak infrared luminescence of photosensitizers (PSs) and singlet oxygen using optical lightguides was used on skin of laboratory animals in vivo.

Large‐Scale Determination of Frontier Orbital Energies of Disordered Small‐Molecule Organic Semiconductors Using Exciplex Emission Spectra

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurately knowing the frontier orbital energies of the structurally disordered small‐molecule organic semiconductors that are used in optoelectronic devices such as organic light‐emitting diodes is required to rationally improve their performance. Here, we show that these energies can be deduced with a large accuracy from the peak energies of

Janus electrocatalytic flow-through membrane enables highly selective singlet oxygen production

Nature Communications, 2020
Electrocatalytic processes are promising for automated and scalable synthesis of singlet oxygen, but they are energy- and chemical-intensive. Here the authors present a Janus electrocatalytic membrane that selectively produces singlet oxygen with low ...

Enrolling reactive oxygen species in photon-to-chemical energy conversion: fundamentals, technological advances, and applications

Advances in Physics: X, 2021
In theory, oxygen (O2) is an ideal chemical reagent because of its high relative abundance and negligible environmental toxicity. In practice however, by the nature of its ground state electronic configuration, many chemical reactions involving O2 are ...

Cytotoxic Effects of Singlet Oxygen

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1987
The toxic effects of gas-phase singlet oxygen, 1O2, on the ciliated respiratory epithelium of hamster trachea have been demonstrated. Tracheal explants treated with 1O2 showed a dose-dependent decrease in cilia beating frequency and focal ciliostasis. A statistically significant decrease in ciliary activity occurred at 1O2 concentrations as low as 154 ...

Spectrally Coordinated Plasmonic–Photothermal Photocatalysts for Mineralization of Mixed Indoor VOCs Under White LED Illumination

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A plasmonic–photothermal–photocatalytic hybrid comprising Cu(II)‐grafted TiO2, yolk–shell Au@SiO2, and reduced graphene oxide sheets (CuT/AuSi‐GS) harvests full‐spectrum white light‐emitting diode (LED) light via complementary photocatalytic oxidation, localized surface‐plasmon‐resonance‐induced electric‐field enhancement, and photothermal acceleration.

High‐Mobility Chalcogenophene‐Engineered Diketopyrrolopyrrole Mixed Ionic‐Electronic Conductors With Doping Tolerance for Low‐Power Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Chalcogen substitution emerges as a powerful strategy for designing high‐performance OMIECs. In aliphatic–glycol side chain diketopyrrolopyrrole polymers, biselenophene incorporation promotes a planar, polarizable, and doping‐tolerant quinoidal framework, enabling PDPP‐4EG‐Se2 to combine high hole mobility, large µC*, enhanced operational stability ...
