Free-standing microcrystals of a fluorescent organic dye: Preparation and spectroscopic study
Suspensions of microcrystals were obtained from an organic fluorescent dye, 4-n-octylamino-7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, by reprecipitation in water in the presence of various macromolecules: anionic or cationic PAMAM dendrimer, poly(acrylic acid, sodium salt), poly(acrylamide), and calf thymus DNA...

Summary: | Suspensions of microcrystals were obtained from an organic
fluorescent dye, 4-n-octylamino-7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole,
by reprecipitation in water in the presence of various
macromolecules: anionic or cationic PAMAM dendrimer, poly(acrylic
acid, sodium salt), poly(acrylamide), and calf thymus DNA. The use
of these additives allowed the size and shape of the microcrystals
to be controlled. A study by UV/vis absorption and fluorescence
spectroscopy revealed some common points, but also some
interesting differences, in the optical behaviour of the five
samples. |
