Synthesis and characterization of NIR fluorescent BODIPY-Xanthene hybrid dyes

This study designs, synthesizes, and characterizes NIR fluorescent BODIPY-Xanthene hybrid dyes for optical imaging applications.

Multiparametric microenvironment sensing via distinct molecular equilibria in a single cyanine dye

This paper introduces a single cyanine dye that encodes two ratiometric reporting channels to simultaneously sense hydrogen bonding/polarity and crowding/self-association in microenvironments.

Membrane-Promoted J-Aggregation of BODIPY Dimers Enables Spontaneous Blinking in Green and Red Channels for Live-Cell Nanoscopy

This paper designs BODIPY dimers that form J-aggregates in cell membranes, enabling brighter and more precise live-cell single-molecule localization microscopy in green and red channels.

Computational biophysical characterization of a superradiant virus-like particle in its ground state

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to investigate how dye conjugation affects the biophysical properties of virus-like particles, revealing structural and electrostatic changes that influence superradiance.
