  • Title: Dual-fluorophore ratiometric pH nanosensor with tuneable pKa and extended dynamic range.
    Author: Chauhan VM, Burnett GR, Aylott JW.
    Journal: Analyst; 2011 May 07; 136(9):1799-801. PubMed ID: 21416087.
    Abstract:
    Ratiometric pH nanosensors with tuneable pK(a) were prepared by entrapping combinations of two pH-sensitive fluorophores (fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran (FITC-D) and Oregon Green(®) dextran (OG-D)) and a reference fluorophore (5-(and-6)-carboxytetramethylrhodamine dextran (TAMRA-D)), in a biocompatible polymer matrix. Dual-fluorophore pH nanosensors permit the measurement of an extended dynamic range, from pH 4.0 to 7.5.
