Responsive two-photon induced europium emission as fluorescent indicator for paralytic shellfish saxitoxin.
Organic letters(2011)
Abstract
A water-soluble europium(III) complex (1) has been synthesized and demonstrated to be a specific fluorescence probe for the paralytic shellfish toxin saxitoxin, a neurotoxin that blocks the voltage-gated sodium channels on cell membranes. Saxitoxin binds to the europium complex (K(B) = 6.1 × 10(4) M(-1)) and triggers a two-photon induced f-f emission enhancement by over 100% and increases the two-photon absorption cross-section from 9 to 36 GM.
