MW-assisted synthesis of fluorescent BSA-AuNCs for the turn-off sensing of Pb(ii) and turn-on sensing of melamine.
A naphthalimide based Fe3+ selective fluorescence ‘turn-on’ probe that operates based on a PET mechanism has been synthesized, and its application in the detection of Fe3+ ions in aqueous samples and in live cells is explored.
A new quinoline based sensor was developed and applied for the selective detection of Cd2+ both in vitro and in vivo.
