According to the principle of dynamic quenching a new ON-OFF fluorescent chemosensor for Cu2+ions was designed, this chemosensor was composed of p-tert-butylthiacalix [arene (TCA),sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and perylene through the form of self-assembly in aqueous solution. Addition of Cu2+ions could result in a quenching of the fluorescence emission of perylene inside micelles, which due to intramicellar complex-fluorophore electron-transfer or energy-transfer effects induced by the complexation of TCA with the Cu2+ions.The experimental results indicated that: Under the condition of TCA/perylene was 800/1, SDS concentration was 150mmol/L and pH value above 9, according to the fluorescence quenching ,within a certain range of the concentration of Cu2+ion can be linearly determined.

According to the principle of dynamic quenching a new ON-OFF fluorescent chemosensor for Cu2+ ions was designed, this chemosensor was composed of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene (TCA) and perylene through the form of self-assembly in aqueous solution. Addition of Cu2+ ions could result in a quenching of the fluorescence emission of perylene inside micelles, which is ascribed to intramicellar complex-fluorophore electron-transfer or energy-transfer effects induced by the complexation of TCA with the Cu2+ ions.The results of the experiment indicated that: With the condition of TCA/perylene = 1000/1, SDBS concentration was 50mmol/L and pH value above 7, concentration of Cu2+ ion can be linearly determined according to the fluorescence quenching in a certain range.

SummaryThis work focuses on time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS) of Pa(IV) in aqueous solution. Excitation at 308 nm causes a fluorescence emission with a peak maximum at about 460 nm. Thereby, the position of the band´s maximum depends on the concentration, the type of the acid, and the pH value. Increasing complexation of the Pa(IV) ion leads to an increasing hypsochromic shift of the emission band up to 46 nm. In contrast to the band position the half-width (61.6±1.4 nm) and the lifetime (16±2 ns) of the fluorescence emission do not change significantly with changes in the chemical environment of the Pa(IV). The results of this work show that speciation of Pa(IV) can be performed even in aqueous solution by using TRLFS.

As a new approach, the acidity that wood exhibits under moderate conditions is assayed by stimulated dissociation of weak wood acids in lightly basic secondary phosphate solutions. To assure a sufficient dissociation of hardly soluble weak acids in the solution, the amount of wood suspended in solutions should be small but vary depending on the degree of acidity of wood species. However, the difficulties are associated with the titration of very dilute acids limiting the precision of the measurement. If the disintegrated wood is suspended in a secondary phosphate solution, the weak woods acids form the conjugate acid from secondary phosphate resulting in a pH fall of the solution. The decrease in the pH value in phosphate solution, which depends on the wood acidity, can be evaluated to estimate the acidity arising from wood under moderate conditions.

Molecular self-assembly is ubiquitous in nature and has emerged as a new approach to produce new materials in chemistry, engineering, nanotechnology, polymer science and materials. Molecular self-assembly has been attracting increasing interest from the scientific community in recent years due to its importance in understanding biology and a variety of diseases at the molecular level. In the last few years, considerable advances have been made in the use ofpeptides as building blocks to produce biological materials for wide range of applications, including fabricating novel supra-molecular structures and scaffolding for tissue repair. The study ofbiological self-assembly systems represents a significant advancement in molecular engineering and is a rapidly growing scientific and engineering field that crosses the boundaries ofexisting disciplines. Many self-assembling systems are rangefrom bi- andtri-block copolymers to DNA structures as well as simple and complex proteins andpeptides. The ultimate goal is to harness molecular self-assembly such that design andcontrol ofbottom-up processes is achieved thereby enabling exploitation of structures developed at the meso- and macro-scopic scale for the purposes oflife and non-life science applications. Such aspirations can be achievedthrough understanding thefundamental principles behind the selforganisation and self-synthesis processes exhibited by biological systems.

<div><div><div><p>We report the design of polymersomes using a bottom-up approach where the self-assembly of amphiphilic copolymers poly(2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl phosphorylcholine)–poly(2-(diisopropylamino) ethyl methacrylate) (PMPC-PDPA) into membranes is tuned using pH and temperature. We study this process in detail using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and stop-flow ab- sorbance disclosing the molecular and supramolecular anatomy of each structure observed. We report a clear evolution from disk micelles to vesicle to high-genus vesicles where each passage is controlled by pH switch or temperature. We show that the process can be rationalised adapting membrane physics theories disclosing important scaling principles that allow the estimation of the vesiculation minimal radius as well as chain entanglement and coupling. This allows us to propose a new approach to generate nanoscale vesicles with genus from 0 to 70 which have been very elusive and difficult to control so far.</p></div></div></div>
