The disclosure discloses a method of preparing electric and temperature dual-control bi-stable color-changing dyes and microcapsules, belonging to the technical fields of fine chemicals and materials science. According to the disclosure, after an electrolyte, a leuco dye and an organic solid material are mixed according to 1:(2-10):(15-50), a series of electric and temperature dual-control bi-stable color-changing dye compounds having a color change temperature range of −5° C. to +80° C. can be prepared. The dye compounds change color under cooperative control of electricity and temperature, and can be continuously stable at a certain color change state according to different conditions, and finally achieve controllable color change conditions and controllable color change stable states. When being driven by voltage and temperature, the dual-control bi-stable color-changing microcapsules prepared according to the disclosure achieve controllable color change performance and color change stable states, and have the driving voltage being lower than 10 V (much lower than the human body safety voltage 36 V).

A scented color-changing system for revealing a hidden message, brand, picture, and the like on a substrate such as a paper when a fragrance is applied or released on the substrate. The hidden message contains a color former such as a leuco dye and the fragrance contains a color developer such as zinc chloride that reacts with the color former to reveal the message. The fragrance can be sprayed on the substrate or released from microcapsules embedded in or disposed on the substrate by rupturing the microcapsules. The scented color-changing system is particularly suited for use with fragrance test strips, advertising mailers, magazine inserts, and the like.

An optical filter includes: a resin substrate including a resin (P) which has a glass transition temperature of 200° C. or higher and which has specific transmittance properties; an external resin layer; and dielectric multilayer films. In a case where the external resin layer includes the polyimide resin, the optical filter includes an intermediate resin layer including a cycloolefin resin. At least one of the dielectric multilayer films is a near-infrared reflection layer. At least one of the external resin layer and the intermediate resin layer contains a near-infrared absorbing dye (A). The near-infrared absorbing dye (A) has a maximum absorption wavelength within a wavelength range of 800 nm to 1,200 nm. The proportion of a total thickness of members including a resin having a glass transition temperature of 200° C. or higher to a total thickness of the resin-including members is 85% or higher.

Provided is a Gardenia pigment preparation that can stably maintain a dissolved state of Gardenia blue pigment in an acidic range. The Gardenia pigment preparation comprises Gardenia blue pigment and lecithin.

A light-emitting colorant-containing particle contains an organic resin and a light-emitting colorant. A content of the light-emitting colorant is in a range of 10 to 80 mol % based on a total amount of a monomer forming the organic resin and the light-emitting colorant. The particle has an average particle diameter in a range of 1 to 100 nm.

Provided herein is a pharmaceutical composition comprising an effective amount of cypate-Cyclo (Cys-Gly-Arg-Asp-Ser-Pro-Cys)-Lys-OH (LS301), cypate-Cyclo(Cys-Gly-Arg-Asp-Ser-Pro-Cys)-Tyr-OH (LS838) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein each amino acid residue is independently in a D or L configuration; a divalent metal ion; and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Further provided are lyophilized products comprising a dye-conjugate and m methods for identifying compromised and for binding phosphorylated annexin A2 (pANXA2) protein in a biological sample using a composition described herein.

The disclosure relates to methods for coloring keratinous substrates using solubilized vat dyes, as well as compositions and kits suitable for carrying out the methods. The disclosure also relates to novel solubilized vat dyes.

The present invention provides methods of producing decolorized beet products and compositions produced therefrom. In some implementations, the decolorized beet product is decolorized beetroot juice.

Shelf stable indocyanine green solutions are made by dissolving indocyanine green in an organic solvent with no water content. Such solutions may be self-stable for up to a year at room temperature when stored in air-tight containers. Solutions may then be used conventionally in imaging procedures in the medical and dental fields.
