“…An optical sensor based on bis(phenol) as acid and H + -42 as base was found to respond to various polar solvents (ethanol, methanol, ethyl acetate, acetone). 1039 It was suggested that these alcohols disturb the hydrogen bond network of bis(phenol) and H + -42 but a carrier mechanism in a narrow sense is not evident. Formation of the hemiacetal of the trifluoroacetophenone derivative ALC-1 by reaction with ethanol leads to loss in electron delocalization between the trifluoroacetyl and benzene group and results in a large hypsochromic shift of the absorption band of ALC-1.…”

“…Certain triphenylmethane dyes, in combination with an acidic component such as bisphenol A, have an intense blue color that is decolorized in the presence of vapors of polar solvents (Dickert et al 1988). The sensing layer was prepared by dissolving the lactone form of the dye and bisphenol A in polyvinyl chloride and casting it as a l-_tm layer on a solid support.…”
The inspiration for a mission statement of this project arose out of concerns articulated by Drs. Clyde W. Frank, Caroline B. Purdy, and William C. Schutte of OTD, who believed that measurable goals for DOE's environmental technology development projects were lacking.
“…Various types of chemically sensitive optical beads are available using optode chemistries and can be made with sensitivity to different ionic species and other analytes including sodium[ 17 ], potassium [ 17 ], ammonia [ 18 ], sulfur dioxide [ 19 ], hydrogen sulfide [ 20 ], ethanol [ 21 ], acetone [ 21 ], oxygen [ 22 , 23 ], carbon dioxide [ 24 ], and metabolites such as glucose [ 25 ]. This enables OBCI to be applied to study a variety of processes.…”
We have developed a novel approach to allow for continuous imaging of concentration fields that evolve at surfaces due to release, uptake, and mass transport of molecules, without significant interference of the concentration fields by the chemical imaging itself. The technique utilizes optical “reporter” microbeads immobilized in a thin layer of transparent and inert hydrogel on top of the surface. The hydrogel has minimal density and therefore diffusion in and across it is like in water. Imaging the immobilized microbeads over time provides quantitative concentration measurements at each location where an optical reporter resides. Using image analysis in post-processing these spatially discrete measurements can be transformed into contiguous maps of the dynamic concentration field across the entire surface. If the microbeads are small enough relative to the dimensions of the region of interest and sparsely applied then chemical imaging will not noticeably affect the evolution of concentration fields. In this work colorimetric optode microbeads a few micrometers in diameter were used to image surface concentration distributions on the millimeter scale.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
