제목 Thermally Responsive Polymeric Hydrogels for Fluorescent Color Switching by FRET Distance Modulation
초록 In this study, we developed a hydrogel-based fluorescent thermometer using organic dyes labeled temperature-responsive copolymer system. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) was chosen as a thermally-responsive spacer between blue and green emitting dyes in order to make conformational change by temperature, while randomly polymerized acrylates were used to regulate water swelling ratio of the hydrogel. The spatial proximity between Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) donors and acceptors incorporated in the hydrogel can be tuned via thermo-induced collapsing and swelling of the platform at the lower critical solution temperature of PNIPAM, leading to the facile modulation of FRET efficiencies. In addition, our hydrogel system showed excellent reversibility, indicating an ideal platform for biological and environmental applications.
