Title: A near-infrared fluorescent probe for detecting copper(II) with high selectivity and sensitivity and its biological imaging applications. Author: Li P, Duan X, Chen Z, Liu Y, Xie T, Fang L, Li X, Yin M, Tang B. Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2011 Jul 21; 47(27):7755-7. PubMed ID: 21617817. Abstract: The first near-infrared fluorescent probe was developed toward Cu(2+). Based on the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) mechanism, the probe exhibited weak fluorescence. Upon the addition of Cu(2+), it fluoresced strongly. The probe offered this unique capability, and was successfully applied to living cells, tissues and in vivo to visualize Cu(2+).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
