Photoacids undergo an increase in acidity upon electronic excitation, enabling excited-state
proton transfer (ESPT) reactions. A multitude of compounds that allow ESPT has been …

Probing dynamics of intracellular components using physical chemistry techniques is a
remarkable bottom-up approach for understanding the structures and functions of a …

Dynamics of excited state proton transfer (ESPT) in the lysosome region of live lung cells
(normal and cancer) is studied by picosecond time-resolved confocal microscopy. For this …

In this work, we propose a new analysis of the time resolved emission spectra of a photo‐
acid, HA, pyranine (8‐hydroxypyrene‐1, 3, 6‐trisulphonic acid, HPTS) based on time …

Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques were used to study excited-state
proton transfer (ESPT) to water of the reversible photoacid 2-naphthol-8-sulfonate (2N8S) in …

An accurate diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) at the early stage is critical to not only
allow preventative treatments in time but also forecast probable medication toxicity for …

The proton transfer reaction is one of the fundamental chemical reactions where the reaction
dynamics strongly depend on solvent properties such as acidity or basicity. A photoacid 8 …

Excited state proton transfer (ESPT) of an anionic photoacid 8-hydroxypyrene-1, 3, 6-
trisulfonic acid (HPTS or pyranine) has been studied inside a cationic reverse micelle (RM) …

Cytochrome c oxidase (C c O) pumps protons from the N-side to the P-side and consumes
electrons from the P-side of the mitochondrial membrane driven by energy gained from …

Liposomes of a cationic lipid dioctadecyldimethylammonium bromide (DODAB) are efficient
nanocarriers of nucleic acids. Incorporation of a neutral lipid monoolein (MO) in excess …
