Abstract

A series of lanthanide organic complexes, namely, [Ln2PDC3(H2O)3]H2O (Ln = Eu, Tb, Eu xTb2- x, H2PDC: pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid), were synthesized via hydrothermal method. Eu-PDC was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra, and thermogravimetric analysis illustrate that Eu-PDC, Tb-PDC, and Eu xTb2- x-PDC complexes are isostructural. All the complexes exhibit strong emission even though water molecules coordinated in the structure. Tunable emission color from green, yellow to red is realized by adjusting the Eu/Tb ratio in mixed Eu xTb2- x-PDC complexes. Energy transfer from Tb3+ to Eu3+ is discussed in detail via fluorescence decay and time resolution spectra. The detailed energy transfer process sees that the emitting color of Eu0.15Tb1.85-PDC shifts from green to orange in a time interval of 153-790 μs. In addition, temperature-dependent emission of the Eu0.05Tb1.95-PDC complex indicates that it is a potential solid state material for a luminescence thermometer in the range of 293-333 K. The temperature resolution is less than 0.16 K. The optical properties of the EuTb-PDC complex indicate that it is a multifunctional luminescent material with pr...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
