We have synthesized a turn-on fluorescent probe, termed NB4OH, to detect cellular hypochlorite.
A fluorescent probe HCTe was developed for rapid detection of hypochlorous acid based on the specific HOCl-promoted oxidation of diphenyl telluride.
A novel “Turn-On” fluorescent probe, quaternarized 4-pyridinyl-substituted BODIPY dye by incorporating a 5-nitrofuran moiety, was developed and applied for imaging the hypoxic status of tumor cells by the indirect detection of nitroreductase.
