- Abstract
- For many biological and biomedical studies, it is essential to detect the production of 1
O2 and quantify its
production yield. Among the available methods, detection of the characteristic 1270-nm phosphorescence
of singlet oxygen by time-resolved near-infrared (TRNIR) emission constitutes the most direct and
unambiguous approach. An alternative indirect method is electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in
combination with a singlet oxygen probe. This is based on the detection of the TEMPO free radical formed
after oxidation of TEMP (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine) by singlet oxygen. Although the TEMPO/EPR
method has been widely employed, it can produce misleading data. This is demonstrated by the present
study, in which the quantum yields of singlet oxygen formation obtained by TRNIR emission and by the
TEMPO/EPR method are compared for a set of well-known photosensitizers. The results reveal that the
TEMPO/EPR method leads to significant overestimation of singlet oxygen yield when the singlet or triplet
excited state of the photosensitizer is efficiently quenched by TEMP, acting as electron donor. In such case,
generation of the TEMP+. radical cation, followed by deprotonation and reaction with molecular oxygen,
gives rise to an EPR-detectable TEMPO signal that is not associated with singlet oxygen production. This
knowledge is essential for an appropriate and error-free application of the TEMPO/EPR method in
chemical, biological, and medical studies. (literal)
