Cancer microspheres are an ideal cellular model for studying cancer stem cells. However, the lack of effective and rapid fluorescent imaging reagents for cancer microspheres has severely hampered cytological studies associated with cancer microsphere...

Potassium ferricyanide in an aqueous solution is easily decomposed into highly toxic substances (potassium cyanide and hydrogen cyanide) by light or alkaline action, which poses a major hazard to environmental and human health. Here, a reticulated ag... Read More about Supramolecular Polymeric Material Based on Twisted Cucurbit[14]uril: Sensitive Detection and Removal of Potential Cyanide from Water.

A cucurbit[6]uril-carbon dot system: a potentially new bioimaging agent. (2022)
Journal Article
Zhang, S., Tian, Y., Liu, M., Hong-Meng, T., Li, C. R., Zeng, X., Xiao, X., & Redshaw, C. (2022). A cucurbit[6]uril-carbon dot system: a potentially new bioimaging agent. Materials Chemistry Frontiers, 6, 973-980. https://doi.org/10.1039/d2qm00022a

We report novel cucurbit[6]uril (Q[6])/carbon quantum dots (CQDs) prepared by solvothermal and nitrogen doped methods. The m-Q[6]-CQDs have been characterized by FTIR, XRD and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The obtained m-Q[6]-CQDs exhibit good wa...

A phenazine-1-carboxylic acid intermediate was synthesized from the reaction of aniline and 2-bromo-3-nitro-benzoic acid. It was then esterified and reacted with hydrazine hydrate to afford phenazine-1-carboxylic hydrazine. Finally, 10 new hydrazone...
