Ataf Ali - Excell Data from Synthesis and characterization of azo-guanidine based alcoholic media naked eye DNA sensor
DNA sensing always has an open meadow of curiosity for biotechnologists and other researchers. Recently, in this field, we have introduced an emerging class of molecules containing azo and guanidine functionalities. In this study, we have synthesized three new compounds (<b>UA1</b>, <b>UA6</b> and <b>UA7</b>) for potential application in DNA sensing in alcoholic medium. The synthesized materials were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, UV-visible, <sup>1</sup>H NMR and <sup>13</sup>C NMR spectroscopies. Their DNA sensing potential were investigated by UV-visible spectroscopy. The insight of interaction with DNA was further investigated by electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry) and hydrodynamic (viscosity) studies. The results showed that compounds have moderate DNA binding properties, with the binding constants range being 7.2 x 10<sup>3</sup>, 2.4 x 10<sup>3</sup> and 0.2 x 10<sup>3</sup>M<sup>-1</sup>, for <b>UA1</b>, <b>UA6</b> and <b>UA7</b>, respectively. Upon binding with DNA, there was a change in colour (a blue shift in the <i>λ</i><sub>max</sub> value) which was observable with a naked eye. These results indicated the potential of synthesized compounds as DNA sensors with detection limit 1.8, 5.8 and 4.0ng µl<sup>-1</sup> for <b>UA1</b>, <b>UA6</b> and <b>UA7</b>, respectively
Electrochemical Characteristics and Li<sup>+</sup> Ion Intercalation Kinetics of Dual-Phase Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> Composite in the Voltage Range 0–3 V
Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>, Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub>, and dual-phase
Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> composite were prepared by sol–gel
method with average particle size of 1, 0.3, and 0.4 μm, respectively.
Though Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> is electrochemically inactive,
the rate capability of Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> is comparable to that of Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub> at different current rates. Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> also shows a
good rate performance of 90 mA h g<sup>–1</sup> at a high rate
of 10 C in the voltage range 1–3 V, attributable to increased
interfaces in the composite. While Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub> delivers a capacity retention of 88.6% at 0.2 C over 50
cycles, Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> exhibits no capacity fading at 0.2 C (40 cycles) and a capacity
retention of 98.45% at 0.5 C (50 cycles). This highly stable cycling
performance is attributed to the contribution of Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> in preventing the undesirable reaction of Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub> with the electrolyte during cycling. Cyclic
voltammetric curves of Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> in the 0–3 V range exhibit two anodic
peaks at 1.51 and 0.7–0.0 V, indicating two modes of lithium
intercalation into the lattice sites of active material. Owing to
enhanced intercalation/deintercalation kinetics in 0–3 V, the
composite electrode delivers a superior rate performance of 203 mAh/g
at 2.85 C and 140 mAh/g at 5.7 C with good reversible capacity retention
over 100 cycles
