Luminescence spectra tris

Luminescence reaction (Viviani et al., 2002a) The luciferin-luciferase luminescence reaction was carried out in 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, containing 2mM ATP and 4mM Mg2+. Mixing luciferase with luciferin and ATP resulted in an emission of light with rapid onset and a kinetically complex decay. Further additions of fresh luciferase, after the luminescence has decayed to about 10% of its maximum value, resulted in additional luminescence responses similar to the initial one (Fig. 1.15). According to the authors, the repetitive light emission occurred in consequence of the inhibition of luciferase by a reaction product, as seen in the case of the firefly system (McElroy et al., 1953). The luminescence spectrum showed a peak at 487nm (Fig. 1.16). 

Fig. 3.3.1 Luminescence spectrum of coelenterazine catalyzed by the luciferase of the decapod Oplophorus in 15 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.3, containing 50 mM NaCl (solid line). For comparison, the luminescence catalyzed by the luciferase of the anthozoan sea pansy Renilla is shown with dashed line (in 25 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, containing 0.1 M NaCl).

Fig. 6.3.4 Luminescence spectrum of the Watasenia bioluminescence reaction measured with a crude extract of light organs that contain particulate matters, in chilled 0.1 M Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.26, containing 1.5 mM ATP. From Tsuji, 2002, with permission from Elsevier.

Fig. 6.3.7 Luminescence spectrum of a homogenate of the luminous organ of Symplectoteuthis oualaniensis in the presence of 0.5 M KC1 (from Tsuji and Leisman, 1981). A homogenate suspension (1 ml) and 1MKC1 (1 ml), both made with 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.6, containing 1 mM dithioerythritol, were mixed and the spectrum was measured 6 min after mixing. Note that the luminescence of the photoprotein symplectin isolated from the luminous organs showed a maximum at 470—480 nm (Takahashi and Isobe, 1993, 1994).

Fig. 7.1.5 Fluorescence spectra of purified Chaetopterus photoprotein (CPA) in 10 mM ammonium acetate, pH 6.7 (solid lines), and the bioluminescence spectrum of the luminous slime of Chaetopterus in 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2 (dashed line). Note that the luminescence spectrum of Chaetopterus photoprotein in 2 ml of 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2, containing 0.5 M NaCl, 5 pi of old dioxane and 2 pi of 10 mM FeSC>4 (Amax 453-455 nm) matched exactly with the fluorescence emission spectrum of the photoprotein. No significant change was observed in the fluorescence spectrum after the luminescence reaction.

Fig. 9.9 Luminescence spectrum of a young fruiting body of Fanellus stipticus (1) the chemiluminescence spectra of PM-1 in the presence of CTAB (2) hexadecanoyl-choline iodide (3) and tetradecanoylcholine chloride (4). Chemiluminescence was elicited with Fe2+ and H2O2 in 50mM Tris buffer, pH 8.0, containing 0.18mM EDTA.

Complexes containing the 3,5-dinitrosalicylate ion, e.g. [Ln2(C2H202N2)3],- H20 (u = 7 -> 15), and methylsalicylate (MesaP ), e.g. [Ln(Mesal)2(OH)-(H2O)] (Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, Yb and have been reported. Tris-salicylaldehydato (said ) complexes, Ln(sald)3 (La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, or Tb) form 1 1 adducts with o-phenanthroline (o-phen), aa -bipyridyl, quinoline, and pyridine. The luminescence spectrum of the Eu " complexes showed that, in the solid state, the symmetrically forbidden electric dipole transition intensity was much enhanced for the o-phen adduct when compared to its salicylate analogue. The simple said" complexes were very poor emitters. 

Luminescence of the Eu + complex of the tetradentate tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine ligand shown in Figure 5.12 (R = Me) shows a particular sensitivity for nitrate (over other ions such as chloride, sulfate, and acetate), greatest enhancement of the luminescence spectrum being for the hypersensitive Dq ->- F2 transition at 618 nm, as might be expected (see T. Yamada, S. Shinoda, and H. Tsukube, Chem. Commun., 2002, 218). 

Using your Cr aqueous stock solution prepare a solution of approximately 5 x 10-5 m [Cr(phen)3]3+ (aq) in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer, determining the actual concentration as precisely as possible. Obtain a UV-vis spectrum and a luminescence spectrum of this solution. 

Fig. 6.2.4 Change in the absorption spectrum of pholasin (14.5 p,M) caused by the luminescence reaction catalyzed by Pholas luciferase (1.1 p.M). The curve shown is the differential spectrum between a cell containing the mixture of pholasin and Pholas luciferase (0.9 ml in the sample light path) and two cells containing separate solutions of pholasin and the luciferase at the same concentrations (in the reference light path), all in 0.1 M Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.5, containing 0.5 M NaCl. Four additions of ascorbate (3 iM) were made to the sample mixture to accelerate the reaction. The spectrum was recorded after 120 min with a correction for the base line.

Terbium clathrochelate showed green emission of very high intensity. The emission spectrum contains the D4 —> Fj transition bands of the encapsulated terbium ion. The same but less intense emission spectrum was observed at higher temperatures. The luminescence quantum yield is close to 1 at 4.4 K and is approximately 0.05 at room temperature [390]. The decrease in intensity of the terbium(III) ion luminescence starts at 100 K (higher than that of free macrobicyclic tris-bipyridine ligand and lower than that of the corresponding europium(III) compound, Fig. 69). It may be... 

Sariciftci et al. prepared a supramolecular dyad consisting of rutheniumfll) tris(bipyridine) functionalized Cgo (10) [112], While the supramolecule shows no interaction between donor and acceptor moieties in the ground state with no charge transfer band in the observed absorption spectrum, there is clearly photoinduced electron transfer in 10 according to results from transient absorption and time-resolved luminescence measurements [112]. 

The elimination of sample luminescence using a diode laser was demonstrated by measuring SER spectra of tris(2,2 -bipyridine)ruthenium(II), [RB,], in bulk solution. RBj is a highly luminescent compound that has lecdved considerable interest because of its unique excited state properties (24-26). However, because of its intense visible luminescence, it is difficult to obtain luminescence-free Raman spectra even with SER enhancement. Further, visible-wavelength Raman spectra of this compound are usually complicated by resonance Raman contributions to the spectrum.
