Abstract
Hypochlorite (ClO−) and viscosity play a pivotal role in biological immune defense systems, it has been demonstrated that alterations in ClO− may link to the modifications in intracellular viscosity. Consequently, it is crucial to develop a tool that can accurately assess these changes of ClO− and viscosity concurrently. In this work, a dual-responsive fluorescent probe QM-WV based on the ICT effect for simultaneous detection of ClO− and viscosity was constructed. QM-WV exhibited a signally turn-on fluorescence signal at 552 nm for ClO− with favorable selectivity. Meanwhile, QM-WV displayed an exceptional ‘off–on’ fluorescence response at 650 nm to viscosity changes in glycerol-ethanol system. More importantly, QM-WV is capable of visually detecting ClO− by using smartphone as a portable signal processing device. Based on its low cytotoxicity and stability under physiological conditions, QM-WV further enabled the detection and imaging of ClO− and viscosity in HeLa cells and zebrafish.
期刊介绍:
Spectrochimica Acta, Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy (SAA) is an interdisciplinary journal which spans from basic to applied aspects of optical spectroscopy in chemistry, medicine, biology, and materials science.
The journal publishes original scientific papers that feature high-quality spectroscopic data and analysis. From the broad range of optical spectroscopies, the emphasis is on electronic, vibrational or rotational spectra of molecules, rather than on spectroscopy based on magnetic moments.
Criteria for publication in SAA are novelty, uniqueness, and outstanding quality. Routine applications of spectroscopic techniques and computational methods are not appropriate.
Topics of particular interest of Spectrochimica Acta Part A include, but are not limited to:
Spectroscopy and dynamics of bioanalytical, biomedical, environmental, and atmospheric sciences,
Novel experimental techniques or instrumentation for molecular spectroscopy,
Novel theoretical and computational methods,
Novel applications in photochemistry and photobiology,
Novel interpretational approaches as well as advances in data analysis based on electronic or vibrational spectroscopy.
