Measurement of pO2 by luminescence lifetime spectroscopy: A comparative study of the phototoxicity and sensitivity of [Ru(Phen)3]2+ and PdTCPP in vivo

Georges Wagnières, Emmanuel Louis Arthur Gerelli, Veronika Huntosova

Dysfunctions in tissue metabolism can be detected at early stages by oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) measurement. The measurement of emission lifetimes offers very promising and non-invasive approach to estimate pO(2) in vivo. This study compares two exten ...

Oxidation of cetirizine, fexofenadine and hydrochlorothiazide during ozonation: Kinetics and formation of transformation products

Urs von Gunten

The efficiency of wastewater ozonation for the abatement of three nitrogen-containing pharmaceuticals, two antihistamine drugs, cetirizine (CTR) and fexofenadine (FXF), and the diuretic drug, hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), was investigated. Species-specific s ...

Silicon-on-Insulator Technology for Bioluminescence Imaging and Application to a Switching Photodetector

Maher Kayal, Adil Koukab, Denis Sallin

This paper analyzes some advantages of Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) based photodetectors for bioluminescence imaging. It shows that SOI based sensors not only solve the bulk carriers problem, it can also act as a very selective spectral filter by acting as a ...

Bioluminescence for Assessing Drug Potency against Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Claudia Sala, Anthony Vocat, Ruben Hartkoorn, Ming Zhang, Benoit Lechartier

Targeting dormant Mycobacterium tuberculosis represents a challenge to antituberculosis drug discovery programs. We previously reported and validated the use of the streptomycin (STR)-dependent M. tuberculosis 18b strain as a tool for assessing drug potenc ...

Firefly Light Flashing: Oxygen Supply Mechanism

Giorgio Margaritondo

Firefly luminescence is an intriguing phenomenon with potential technological applications, whose biochemistry background was only recently established. The physics side of this phenomenon, however, was still unclear, specifically as far as the oxygen supp ...
