Abstract: Oxygen sensing luminescent dyes, polymers and sensors comprising these sensors and methods of using these sensors and systems are provided.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to a sensor that includes a first a first polymer-luminescent sensing compound configured to produce a first luminescent signal in the presence of a first analyte and a second polymer-luminescent sensing compound configured to produce a second luminescent signal in the presence of a second analyte. The second luminescent signal can have a luminescent lifetime that is at least 1.1 times greater than a luminescent lifetime of the first luminescent signal. Such temporally differences in signal can be used to deconvolute the first luminescent signal from the second luminescent signal even when, for example, the first luminescent signal and the second luminescent signal have the same or a similar emission spectrum.

Abstract: The present invention is directed, in certain embodiments, to polymerizable near-IR dyes and polymers comprising said dyes as monomeric residues. In other embodiments, the present invention also relates to methods for the preparation of polymerizable near-IR dyes, and to the use of polymerizable near-IR dyes in the preparation of fluorescent polymers.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to a method that includes receiving an optical emission signal from a sensor disposed in a vessel. The vessel can be configured for an in vitro biological process (e.g., a bioreactor), and the emission signal can be received while the sensor is in contact with a biological matrix. The emission signal can be received by a reader that is disposed outside the vessel. At least one of a presence, quantity, or concentration of an analyte can be determined based on the emission signal. Similarly stated, the emission signal emitted by the sensor can be dependent on at least one of a presence, quantity, or concentration of the analyte. In some embodiments, the emission signal can be an optical signal emitted by a sensor in response to the sensor being excited by an excitation optical signal emitted by, for example, the reader.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to a sensor that includes an analyte-sensing dye and a reference dye. The analyte-sensing dye can be configured to emit an analyte-dependent optical signal in the presence of an analyte. Similarly stated, the intensity and/or duration of the analyte-dependent optical signal can be modulated by a quantity and/or concentration of the analyte in the environment of the sensor. The reference dye can be configured to emit an analyte-independent optical signal. The analyte-dependent optical signal and the analyte-independent optical signal have an analyte-dependent spectrum and an analyte-independent spectrum, respectfully. The analyte-dependent optical spectrum and the analyte-independent spectrum can be the same, substantially the same, and/or overlapping. The analyte-dependent optical signal can have a duration of lifetime that is shorter than a duration or lifetime of the analyte-independent optical signal.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides polymerizable luminescent dyes useful for incorporation into polymers. The dyes and the polymers can be used in sensing and imaging applications, for example, to provide accurate and optionally long term measurements of glucose in vivo. The present disclosure also provides sensors including the polymers described herein. The sensors can be implanted into a tissue of a subject and used for long-term or short-term continuous and semi-continuous collection of data of various biochemical analytes, optionally without the use of implantable hardware of any type and/or enzymatic and electrochemical detection methods.
