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.
通过将两种 pH 敏感荧光团(异硫氰酸荧光素葡聚糖(FITC-D)和 Oregon Green(®)葡聚糖(OG-D))和一种参比荧光团(5-(和-6)-羧基四甲基罗丹明葡聚糖(TAMRA-D))组合包埋在生物相容性聚合物基质中,制备了具有可调 pK(a)的比率型 pH 纳米传感器。双荧光团 pH 纳米传感器允许测量从 pH 4.0 到 7.5 的扩展动态范围。
