Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 15Bodipy-Conjugated Chitosan Nanoparticles as a Fluorescent Probe(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2017) Bor, Gizem; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Tomak, Aysel; Şanlı Mohamed, GülşahRecently, development of fluorescent nanoparticle-based probes for various bioimaging applications has attracted great attention. This work aims to develop a new type fluorescent nanoparticle conjugate and evaluate its cytotoxic effects on A549 and BEAS 2B cell lines. Throughout the study, ionically crosslinked chitosan nanoparticles (CNs) were conjugated with carboxylated 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY-COOH). The results of conjugates (BODIPY-CNs) were investigated with regard to their physic-chemical, optical, cytotoxic properties and cellular internalization. The morphology of BODIPY-CNs was found to be spherical in shape and quite uniform having average diameter of 70.25 ± 11.99 nm. Cytotoxicty studies indicated that although BODIPY-COOH itself was quite toxic on both A549- and BEAS 2B-treated cells, CNs increased the cell viability of both cell lines via conjugation to BODIPY-COOH fluorescent molecule up to 67% for A549 and 74% for BEAS 2B cells. These results may suggest a possible utilization of the new fluorescent nanoparticle-based probe for bioimaging in biology and medicine.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 25A Bodipy/Pyridine Conjugate for Reversible Fluorescence Detection of Gold(iii) Ions(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Üçüncü, Muhammed; Karakuş, Erman; Emrullahoğlu, MustafaWe designed a "turn-on" type fluorescent probe based on a BODIPY-pyridine conjugate which exhibits high selectivity towards Au(iii) ions and, also responds to changes in the pH within the acidic pH range. The probe offers features such as a rapid response time, a low detection limit, and high sensitivity and selectivity. The detection of Au(iii) is recognized by a distinct change in the emission intensity which relies on a reversible "ligand to ion" binding mechanism. We also document the utility of the probe for the quantification of gold ion residues in synthetic end products prepared via gold catalysis. © 2015 The Royal Society of Chemistry and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6The Utilization of Ph Sensitive Spirocyclic Rhodamine Dyes for Monitoring D-Fructose Consumption During a Fermentation Process(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013) Karakuş, Erman; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Eanes, Ritchie C.; Emrullahoğlu, MustafaThe colorimetric and fluorometric detection of d-fructose was achieved by employing a two component sensing system composed of an arylboronic acid as the host molecule and a pH sensitive spirocyclic rhodamine dye as the indicator molecule.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 23Rhodamine-Immobilised Electrospun Chitosan Nanofibrous Material as a Fluorescence Turn-On Hg2+ Sensor(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016) Horzum, Nesrin; Mete, Derya; Karakuş, Erman; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Demir, Mustafa MuammerA turn-on fluorescence sensing system for mercuric (Hg2+) ions relying on a modified rhodamine B–chitosan fluorophore moiety was developed. This novel sensing approach relies on the simultaneous electrospinning of chitosan and rhodamine B hydrazide with phenylisothiocyanate functionality in hexafluoroisopropanol solution at 3.4 kV cm−1. The electrospun mats exhibited not only considerably enhanced fluorescence intensity in the presence of mercury ions, a result attributed to the ring opening of the spirolactam unit of the rhodamine-based fluorophore, but also a remarkably high sensitivity and selectivity toward Hg2+. In effect, the strategy has the potential to open new avenues in the design and development of other high-performance nanofibrous sensing materials for detecting target metal species of environmental interest.
