A hydrazone (1) based on 2-hydroxyquinoline-3-carbaldehyde was synthesized and its anion and cation detection ability were studied. It could detect both fluoride in acetonitrile selectively among anions and copper ions in semiaqueous medium among cations. The addition of fluoride ion to the acetonitrile solution of the receptor produced a sharp colour change from light yellow to bluish green. The corresponding UV–vis measurements showed a red shift of the band of receptor 1 for fluoride and a blue shift of the band for copper ions. The fluorescence intensity of the receptor 1 got quenched with both fluoride and copper ions. The detection limits for both the ions are in order of micromolar level. The practical applications of fluoride detection were extended to oral care products.

Metal ions in high concentrations can pollute the marine environment. Human activities and industrial pollution are the causes of Cu2+ contamination. Here, we report our discovery of an enzyme method-based microfluidic that can be used to rapidly detect Cu2+ in seawater. In this method, Cu2+ is reduced to Cu+ to inhibit horseradish peroxidase (HRP) activity, which then results in the color distortion of the reaction solution. The chip provides both naked eye and spectrophotometer modalities. Cu2+ concentrations have an ideal linear relationship, with absorbance values ranging from 3.91 nM to 256 μM. The proposed enzyme method-based microfluidic chip detects Cu2+ with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.87 nM. Other common metal ions do not affect the operation of the chip. The successful detection of Cu2+ was achieved using three real seawater samples, verifying the ability of the chip in practical applications. Furthermore, the chip realizes the functions of two AND gates in series and has potential practical implementations in biochemical detection and biological computing.

Abstract In the green coloured larvae of Micromata rosea but not in adults temperature raise above 29 °C causes immediate colour change: green to bluish-green. Colour change is reversible by temperature decline below 29 °C. Qualitative analysis of the yolk pigment reveals the same biliverdin conjugates (micromatabilin) as previously identified for adult spiders. The bluish-green colour (above 29 °C) re­sults from an absorption band (675-680 nm, water phase, purified solution) modified to that of the green solution (below 29 °C). Presumably, the thermodependent, rever­sible colour change is due to a special yolk protein bond to the micromatabilin chromophor.

Esterification is the most important derivatization to utilise cellulose as a sustainable resource for the materials industry. Homogeneous esterification is generally the most convenient means to achieve this aim. We found that N-methyl-N-(2-methoxyethyl)pyrrolidinium acetate [P1ME][OAc] easily dissolved cellulose. To achieve the environmental benign acylation of cellulose, we attempted to design acyl donor molecules under strong base catalyst-free conditions. It was found that a [P1ME][OAc] solution of cellulose when mixed with 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl benzoates at 80°C afforded the corresponding cellulose benzoate with a perfect (3.0) degree of substitution (DS) value in almost quantitative yield. We also succeeded in preparing 4-[(4-hydroxyphenyl)diazenyl]benzoate or 4-[(4-methoxyphenyl)diazenyl]benzoate of the cellulose with a DS value of 2.38 or 2.67 by the same protocol, respectively; the DMSO solution prepared by the resulting compounds exhibited a photochromic property, although only a slight colour change from light yellow to colourless was obtained by UV irradiation.

Two novel isomeric colorimetric probes are established for simultaneous determination of copper ions using 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde fluorescein hydrazone (5-HMBA-FH) and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde fluorescein hydrazone (3-HMBA-FH). They are synthesized by reacting fluorescein hydrazide with 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde, respectively, and then characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and infrared spectrum. The addition of copper ions to the solutions of two novel colorimetric probes can generate the obviously peaks at 498 nm in UV–vis absorption spectra along with a rapid colour change from colourless to dark yellow. The detection limits of the method for Cu2+ ion were 3.442 × 10−6 mol/L and 3.682 × 10−6 mol/L separately for 5-HMBA-FH and 3-HMBA-FH, respectively. The additions of other metal ions hardly affect the determination of copper ions. The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of Cu2+ ions in various samples. This method possesses high sensitivity, high simplicity, and minimized interference and will provide a great advantage in detecting copper ions in the environment, food, and medical applications.

DFT calculations indicated that the rotation of the N,N-di(carboxymethyl)amino group around the N–CAr bond by approximately 90°, resulted in a larger HOMO–LUMO energy gap, and led to the observed colour change.

A new verongid sponge (Suberea purpureaflava n. sp.) is described from Dahab, Gulf of Aqaba, in the northern Red Sea. It has a pronounced colour change (a dark red ectosome with whitish pore sieves and a light yellow choanosome in the living specimen changes to a uniform dark violet in the fixed state) and rather rare dendritic fibres with pith and bark and a diameter of about 110–165µm, with the pith occupying 80–90 % of the fibre. Especially the pore sieves were very striking in situ. The new species is compared to all verongid sponges so far recorded from the Red Sea and to all known and accepted Suberea species worldwide. An identification key to all known Suberea species is given. This new species record brings the number of Suberea species described to a total of 11.

Objectives: To investigate the colour stability of four indirect composite restorative materials after accelerated aging.Methods: Four indirect composites (Gradia, Signum+, HFO and Adoro) were used. For each material, six specimens were prepared and subjected to accelerated aging (Suntest CPS+, Atlas, Chicago, IL, USA) according to ISO 7491. A Dr. Lange Microcolor Data Station colorimeter (Braive Instruments, Liege, Belgium) was used to measure specimen colour before and after aging. Measurements were performed according to the CIE L*a*b* system, and the mean L*, a* and b* values for each material were calculated. The equation ΔΕ = [(ΔL*)2 + (Δa*)2 + (Δb*)2]1/2 was used to measure the total colour change (ΔΕ), where ΔL*, Δa* and Δb* are the differences in the respective values before and after aging. One-way ANOVA were used to determine statistically significant differences in ΔL*, Δa*, Δb* and ΔΕ.Results: No statistically significant differences were found in ΔL*, Δa*, Δb* and ΔΕ among the materials tested (PΔL*=.063; PΔa*=.521; PΔb*=.984 and PΔE=.408). After aging, Gradia specimens showed an increase in lightness (ΔL*=0.36) and a green-yellow shift (Δa*=-1.18, Δb*=0.6), while Signum+ specimens exhibited an increase in lightness (ΔL*=0.5) and a green-blue shift (Δa*=-0.9, Δb*=- 0.45). HFO specimens exhibited an increase in lightness (ΔL*=0.75) and a green-yellow shift (Δa*=- 1.3, Δb*=0.06), and Adoro specimens exhibited an increase in lightness (ΔL*=2.07) and a green-yellow shift (Δa*=-1.3, Δb*=0.68).Conclusions: Colour changes were found to be within accepted values of perceptibility and clinical acceptance after accelerated aging, and no statistically significant differences were found in ΔL*, Δa*, Δb* and ΔΕ among the materials tested.

AbstractQuantum Dots (QDs) are being investigated in a hybrid white light LED structure which inculcates phosphor in the package with a blue LED chip as the light source recently. In this work, Zn doped CdS QD with ZnS shell together with green light emission phosphor is used. Upon prolonged operation, degradation of the LEDs due to the degradation of QDs is observed, which can limit its practical applications. The degradation includes intensity reduction as well as blue shift of the emitted wavelength from the white light. Three stages of degradation are observed, namely an enhancement state where light intensity is found to increase, followed by a rapid degradation stage where light intensity decreases rapidly, and finally a slower degradation stage where the degradation rate of light intensity slows down and continues till the end of the test. Through various detail material analysis, with confirmation from the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we find that the degradation of the LEDs is due to the time evolving degradation of CdS core structure, beginning from the oxidation of sulfur vacancy of CdS QDs by the nearby oxygen atoms as a result of imperfection of the ZnS protective coating around the QDs in the presence of blue light. This oxidation renders a transformation of CdS into CdO at the initial stage. The final stage is the formation of CdSO4 via some intermediate processes.

SummaryThe typical hornblendes of metabasic rocks in the Willyama Complex change from bluish-green to deeply coloured brownish varieties with increase in metamorphic grade. Chemical analyses and optical properties of 23 representative hornblendes are interpreted as showing this colour change to reflect steady increase in titanium content of the hornblendes with increase in grade. High-grade hornblendes also differ from those of lower grade in that tetrahedral aluminium in the Z sites is balanced to an increased extent by alkalis entering the A site rather than by octahedral aluminium entering the Y site. Comparison between theoretical and measured densities of Willyama hornblendes suggest that a calculation based on 23 oxygen anion provides closer approximations than a 24 (O, OH, F) calculation to their structural formulae.
