Title: Ultrafine fluorene-pyridine oligoelectrolyte nanoparticles for supersensitive fluorescence sensing of heparin and protamine. Author: Du H, Zhang L, Mao W, Zhao Y, Huang H, Xiao Y, Zhang Y, He X, Wang K. Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2021 Aug 28; 57(67):8304-8307. PubMed ID: 34318803. Abstract: A new fluorene-pyridine oligoelectrolyte (OFP) is rationally proposed and readily synthesized via a simple one-pot Sonogashira approach. Hence, an unexpectedly small cationic oligomer nanosensor (i.e. OFPNPs, ∼ 1.2 nm in diameter) was conveniently fabricated owing to the enhanced flexibility endowed by the meta-substituted pyridyl unit. Inspiringly, this facile nanoplatform with low cytotoxicity favors the ultrasensitive fluorescence assay for heparin and protamine with a detection limit (LOD, S/N = 3) as low as 1.2 ng mL-1 and 0.5 ng mL-1, respectively, involving heparin-induced aggregation of OFPNPs through electrostatic interaction or competitive rebinding of protamine to heparin.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
