Thermodynamic Study of Colorimetric Transitions in Polydiacetylene Vesicles Induced by the Solvent Effect

Abstract: We report the synthesis of 10,12-pentacosadyinoic acid (PCDA) and PCDA + cholesterol (CHO) + sphingomyelin (SPH) vesicles dispersed in water and the determination of their colorimetric response induced by small amount of organic solvents. In the absence of solvent, PCDA and PCDA/CHO/SPH vesicles showed an intense blue color. The addition of CHCl(3), CH(2)Cl(2), and CCl(4) caused a colorimetric transition (CT) in both structures with the following efficiency: CHCl(3) > CH(2)Cl(2) ≅ CCl(4). However, CH(3)OH did … Show more

“…The PDA and PDA/CHO/SPH vesicles were prepared as described elsewhere [12,[23][24][25]. Briefly, to obtain PDA vesicles, the PDA monomer (10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid, 97% w/w, Sigma ® ) was dissolved in CHCl 3 (98% w/w, Sigma ® ), which was removed by a stream of N 2 gas to promote the formation of a PDA film on the glass surface.…”
