Proflavine is an acridine derivative which was discovered as one of the earliest antibacterial agents, and it has been proven to have potential application to fields such as chemotherapy, photobiology and solar-energy conversion. In particular, it is...
Methylene blue and proflavine are fluorescent dyes used to stain nucleic acid from the molecular level to the tissue level. Already clinically used for sentinel node mapping, detection of neuroendocrine tumors, methemoglobinemia, septic shock, ifosfa...
A novel series of proflavine ureas, derivatives 11a–11i, were synthesized on the basis of molecular modeling design studies. The structure of the novel ureas was obtained from the pharmacological model, the parameters of which were determined from st...
Electrochemical DNA sensors for DNA damage detection based on electroactive polymer poly(proflavine) (PPFL) that was synthesized at screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) from phosphate buffer (PB) and two natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) co...
Methylene blue (MB) is both a dye and a medicine known and used for a long time including as lymphatic tracer in melanoma and breast cancer for revealing sentinel lymph nodes. Proflavine (PRO) is an acriflavine dye, used as bacteriostatic disinfectan...
A DNA sensor has been developed for the determination of doxorubicin by consecutive electropolymerization of an equimolar mixture of Azure B and proflavine and adsorption of native DNA from salmon sperm on a polymer film. Electrochemical investigatio...
A novel nanocomposite based on electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) and electropolymerized polyproflavine (PPFL) was obtained within a “one-pot” synthesis from natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES). NADES consisted of citric ac...
Surgical resection of head and neck (H and N) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) may yield inadequate surgical cancer margins in 10 to 20% of cases. This study investigates the performance of label-free, reflectance-based hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and a...
Development of technologies for rapid screening of DNA secondary structure thermal stability and the effects on stability for binding of small molecule drugs is important to the drug discovery process. In this report, we describe the capabilities of...
Increased knowledge of virus assembly-generated particles is needed for understanding both virus assembly and host responses to virus infection. Here, we use a phage T3 model and perform electron microscopy (EM) of thin sections (EM-TS) of gel-suppor...
