A New Ratio-Metric pH Probe, "ThiAKS Green" for Live-Cell pH Measurements
Akyol, Ali; Baykal, Doruk; Akdağ, Akın; Sensoy, Ozge; Son, Çağdaş Devrim (2023-3-01)
Deviation of the H+ concentration from optimum values within the organelles is closely associated with irregular cellular functions that cause the onset of various diseases. Therefore, determining subcellular pH values in ...
Effect of tetraethylene glycol side chain conformation on chiroptical properties of chirality-induced benzocoumarin
Öztürk, Perihan; Akdağ, Akın (2022-10-01)
Coumarins are multifaceted molecules with compelling fluorescence features. Along with biocompatible properties, they have recently been used in chiroptical studies. The chirality induction to benzo[f]coumarin moiety at th...
Amino Acid Conjugated Spiropyrans: Synthesis and Photoisomerization Studies
Şentürk, Bengi; Akdağ, Akın (2022-09-01)
Among photo-switchable compounds, spiropyrans have attracted significant attention owing to their multi-responsiveness towards a change in the pH, solvent polarity, and temperature, along with light. Upon exposure to the e...
Synthesis of azobenzene-containing macrocycles exhibiting unexpected fluorescence
Hosgor, Ege; Akdağ, Akın (2022-03-01)
Polyfunctional macrocycles have been studied extensively for their responsive properties. In this study, three electron- deficient novel azo-containing crown ethers were successfully synthesized. The synthesized macrocycle...
