¹³C NMR: ¹H–¹³C Decoupling

1.0K
The probability of having two carbon-13 atoms next to each other is negligible because of the low natural abundance of carbon-13. Consequently, peak splitting due to carbon-carbon spin-spin coupling is not observed in spectra. However, protons up to three sigma bonds away split the carbon signal according to the n+1 rule, resulting in complicated spectra.
A broadband decoupling technique is used to simplify these complex, sometimes overlapping, signals. Broadband decoupling relies on a...

Labeling DNA Probes03:31

Labeling DNA Probes

8.1K
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...

Gas Chromatography: Types of Detectors-II

337
In gas chromatography, different detectors are employed to meet specific analytical needs. These detectors are often categorized based on their detection mechanisms and the types of compounds they are best suited to analyze. Thermal Conductivity Detectors (TCD), Flame Ionization Detectors (FID), and Electron Capture Detectors (ECD) represent common categories, each with unique operating principles and applications. However, beyond these, several other detectors are designed for more specialized...

Fluorescence and Phosphorescence: Instrumentation

544
Fluorometers and spectrofluorometers are two types of instruments used for measuring molecular fluorescence. These instruments differ in how they select excitation and emission wavelengths and the type of light sources they utilize. Fluorometers use absorption interference filters to choose excitation and emission wavelengths. The excitation source in a fluorometer is typically a low-pressure mercury vapor lamp that emits intense lines distributed throughout the ultraviolet and visible regions.

Photoluminescence: Applications01:14

Photoluminescence: Applications

379
Photoluminescence offers a wide range of applications due to its inherent sensitivity and selectivity. This technique allows for both direct and indirect analyses of the analyte. Direct quantitative analysis is possible when the analyte exhibits a favorable quantum yield for fluorescence or phosphorescence. However, an indirect analysis may be feasible if the analyte is not fluorescent or phosphorescent, or if the quantum yield is unfavorable. Indirect methods include reacting the analyte with...

Researchers highlight issues with fluorescent probes for detecting carbon monoxide (CO). Many probes mistakenly detect CO-releasing molecules (CORMs) instead of CO, hindering accurate biological studies.

Area of Science:

  • Chemical Biology
  • Biomedical Imaging
  • Molecular Probes

Background:

  • Carbon monoxide (CO) is an endogenous molecule with significant pharmacological activities.
  • Accurate detection of CO is crucial for understanding its biological roles.
  • Fluorescent CO probes have been developed since 2012, with over 100 publications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To critically evaluate the reliability of existing fluorescent CO probes.
  • To address the confusion arising from the use of ruthenium-carbonyl complexes (CORMs) like CORM-2 and CORM-3.
  • To clarify the challenges in detecting low, nanomolar concentrations of CO in vivo.

Main Methods:

  • Review and analysis of existing literature on fluorescent CO probes.
  • Discussion of the chemical reactivity of CORM-2 and CORM-3.
  • Examination of probe kinetics and degradation in aqueous solutions.
  • Main Results:

    • Many reported CO probes do not selectively detect CO but rather the CORM precursors.
    • CORM-2 and CORM-3 are chemically reactive and can release CO2 instead of CO without nucleophiles.
    • The reliability and specificity of numerous CO probes are questionable, impacting CO research.

    Conclusions:

    • Existing fluorescent probes, particularly those using CORM-2/3, often fail to accurately detect endogenous carbon monoxide.
    • Clarification is needed regarding what these probes truly detect to avoid misinterpretation in CO research.
    • Further development of selective and reliable CO probes with fast kinetics is essential for in vivo applications.
