Salt-induced thermochromism of a conjugated polyelectrolyte

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Natalie Renuka Banerji, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Yauhen Sheima

We report here the photophysical properties of a water-soluble conjugated polythiophene with cationic side-chains. When dissolved in aqueous buffer solution (PBS, phosphate buffered saline), there is ordering of the polymer chains due to the presence of th ...

An Alien Divalent Ion Reveals a Major Role for Ca2+ Buffering in Controlling Slow Transmitter Release

Ralf Schneggenburger, Daniel Keller, Olexiy Kochubey

Ca2+-dependent transmitter release occurs in a fast and in a slow phase, but the differential roles of Ca2+ buffers and Ca2+ sensors in shaping release kinetics are still controversial. Replacing extracellular Ca2+ by Sr2+ causes decreased fast release but ...
