A Selective Fluoroionophore Based on BODIPY‐functionalized Magnetic Silica Nanoparticles: Removal of Pb2+ from Human Blood

“…The Jobs plot using the fluorescence changes indicated 1:1 binding for 1 with Pb 2+ (see the Supporting Information, Figure S3). From the fluorescence 2,3,4,5,7,10,15,20,30,50,70, and 100 equiv) in water. The pH value was adjusted by using 0.2 m MOPS, buffer pH 7.…”

“…[3] Plausible molecular targets of lead include calcium-and zincbinding proteins which control cell signaling and gene expression, respectively. [4] Thus, it is important to develop a safe and effective procedure to detect and remove lead from the body after toxic lead contamination. [5] In the last few years many approaches, including chemical precipitation, membrane filtration, ion exchange, and liquid extraction, have been employed for the removal or recovery of heavy metal ions from aqueous phases.…”

Distinctly Different Chemical Functionalities on the Internal and the External Surfaces of Silica Nanotubes, and Their Applications as Multi‐Chemosensors

“…[12] Plausible molecular targets of lead include calcium-and zinc-binding proteins that control cell signaling and gene expression, respectively. [13] Thus, it is important to develop a safe and effective procedure to detect and remove heavy metal ions from the body following toxic heavy metal contamination. [14] In particular, there are several advantages to using multifunctionalized organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterials as chemo-sensors in the environment.…”

A Highly Sensitive and Selective Turn‐On Fluorogenic and Chromogenic Sensor Based on BODIPY‐Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles for Detecting Lead in Living Cells

“…[3] Plausible molecular targets of lead include calcium-and zinc-binding proteins that control cell signaling and gene expression, respectively. [4] Thus, it is important to develop a safe and effective procedure to detect and remove lead from the body following toxic lead contamination. [5] Magnetic silica nanoparticles are of great interest for biomedical and environmental research applications such as bioseparation, drug targeting, cell isolation, enzyme immobilization, and protein purification, because of their biocompatibility and stability against degradation.…”
