A ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe for the rapid detection of HClO in living systems†
Abstract
We have developed a ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe: CR-HA. The CR-HA probe could be used for the determination of hypochlorous acid (HClO) in living systems. The result of fluorescence imaging showed that it could be used as a probe to image exogenous/endogenous HClO in living cells, and to detect HClO in living tissue and zebrafish.
