UiO-66(Zr) is a metal-organic framework material formed from the inorganic metal unit Zr6O4(OH)4 and twelve terephthalic acid ligands. It has two pore cages, tetrahedral and octahedral. Due to the very strong interaction between Zr-O, the UiO-66 (Zr) material has good water stability and thermal stability. The structure...

      Chiral sulfoxide compounds are key intermediates in the synthesis of many drugs, such as the proton pump inhibitor esomeprazole, the platelet adhesion inhibitor OPC-29030, the potassium channel activator Aprikalim, etc., and are widely used in drug synthesis. application. At the same time, chiral sulfoxide is also an...

Near-infrared fluorescent dyes are widely used in fluorescence imaging, photothermal and photodynamic therapy, solar photosensitive cells, etc. EC series near-infrared fluorescent dyes are a new type of high-performance dyes developed by the team of Professor Yang Youjun of East China University of Science and Technology. The maximum absorption wavelength is...

Intraoperative fluorescence navigation is a cutting-edge technology that leverages the enhanced penetration and retention effect (EPR effect) of fluorescent dyes. These dyes accumulate in tumor tissue and emit fluorescence upon receiving excitation light, allowing for real-time visualization of tumor locations during surgery.    Figure 1 Fluorescence imaging technology has broad...

EC series near-infrared fluorescent dyes are a new class of high-performance dyes developed by the research team of Professor Yang Youjun at East China University of Science and Technology (Figure 1) [1-7]. These dyes are designed to meet the growing demand for infrared imaging, photothermal ablation, and other applications in...

The reverse transmembrane pH gradient in cancer cells is a crucial target for disease treatment and can be leveraged for intraoperative histopathological analysis. However, the pathologically relevant pH changes in these cells are subtle and undetectable using traditional Henderson-Hasselbalch-type pH fluorescent probes. To overcome this limitation, Professor Yang Youjun’s team...
