High impact information on EU3

  • For the mixed Tb(3+)/Eu(3+) materials, evidence has been found of the inclusion of Eu(3+) ions in the interlayer space by replacing K+ ions, further allowing the activation of Tb(3+)-to-Eu(3+) energy transfer mechanisms [1].
  • At low metal ion concentrations, each dendrimer hosts only one metal ion and when the hosted metal ion is Nd(3+) or Eu(3+), the fluorescence of all the 24 dansyl units of the dendrimer is quenched with unitary efficiency [2].
  • In particular, addition of 2 equiv of nitrate anions to a solution containing the [Ln.1](OTf-)(3) leads to an 11-fold increase of the luminescence intensity for the Eu(3+) and a 7-fold increase for the Tb(3+) complexes [3].
  • Complexation of the lanthanides Eu(3+), Gd(3+), and Tb(3+) with 1,4,7,10-tetrakis(carboxymethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (dota) has been studied in solution by using potentiometry, luminescence spectrometry, and EXAFS [4].
  • Of the 35 positive myasthenic sera (with antibody values, previously determined by isotopic assay, of 0.4-1290 nmol/L) compared in the two assays, 32 tested positive with the Eu(3+) assay [5].
 

Biological context of EU3

  • This is likely a result of reduced aggregation of europium-regenerated bacteriorhodopsin (bR) upon lipid removal causing more exposure of the binding sites to the Eu(3+) cations [6].
  • It is suggested that Eu(3+) might bind to the PSII reaction center complex and enhance the electron transport rate of PSII CD; however, Eu(3+) treatment does not change the configuration of the PSII reaction center complex [7].
 

Anatomical context of EU3

  • We have studied the effect of monomerization of the purple membrane lattice, as well as removal of 75% of the lipids, on the binding properties of Eu(3+) ions [6].
 

Associations of EU3 with other chemical compounds

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of EU3

  • This solid-phase immunoassay is based on competition between Eu(3+)- or Sm(3+)-labeled antigen and the sample antigen for polyclonal rabbit antibodies [12].
  • The most active fractions were used to label nAChRs for the immunoprecipitation assay, and the bound Eu(3+) was quantified by time-resolved fluorescence [5].
  • Microscopic FTIR spectra show Eu(3+) interacts with both the phosphate groups and nitrogenous bases of DNA, and the formation of [DNA/Eu](n) films induces a change of the conformation of the DNA secondary structure to a certain extent [13].
