Abstract:
A new SiC nanoparticles (SiC NPs)-based chemiluminescence (CL) probe for selective and sensitive detecting of ˙OH has been developed. The radiative recombination of ˙OH-injected holes and electrons in the SiC NPs accounts for the CL phenomenon. Furthermore, the as-developed CL probe has been successfully applied to detect ˙OH in PM2.5.

Radical Reactivity: Nucleophilic Radicals
2.7K
Radicals adjacent to electron-donating groups are called nucleophilic radicals. These radicals readily react with electrophilic alkenes. The SOMO–LUMO interactions are the driving force for the reaction, where the high-energy SOMO of the electron-rich, nucleophilic radicals interacts with the low-energy LUMO of the electron-deficient, electrophilic alkenes. Such SOMO–LUMO interactions are the basis of reactive radical traps, affecting the selectivity in radical reactions. For...

Labeling DNA Probes
9.7K
DNA probes are fragments of DNA labeled with a reporter tag to enable their detection or purification. The resulting labeled DNA probes can then hybridize to target nucleic acid sequences through complementary base-pairing, and may be used to recover or identify these regions.
Radioisotopes, fluorophores, or small molecule binding partners like biotin or digoxigenin, are the most widely used reporter tags for labeling DNA probes. These labels can be attached to the probe DNA molecule via...
