Fluorescence optical imaging is a highly sensitive and powerful tool with diverse in vitro and
in vivo applications for preclinical and clinical studies. This review is focused on the optical …

A new bis-heteroleptic Ru (II) complex (1) of benzimidazole-substituted 1, 2, 3-triazole
pyridine ligand has been designed and constructed for the photoluminescent detection of …

Proteins are among the pivotal constituents in living systems. The development of
fluorescent probes with appropriate selectivity and sensitivity at biologically relevant …

Photothermal inactivation of cells caused by laser heating of a near-infrared croconaine dye
is more effective when the dye is located inside the cell. The cell inactivation is spatially …

Direct monitoring of apoptotic progression is a major step forward for the early assessment
of therapeutic efficacy of certain treatments and the accurate evaluation of the spread of a …

We describe a novel live oral vaccine type. Conceptually, this vaccine is based on a non-
lytic, recombinant filamentous bacteriophage that displays an antigen of interest. To provide …

Squaraine rotaxanes are mechanically interlocked molecules comprised of a dumbbell
shaped squaraine dye inside a tetralactam macrocycle. Previous squaraine rotaxanes have …

A series of far-red sensitive symmetrical squaraine dyes bearing direct–COOH
functionalized indole ring were synthesized, characterized and subjected to photophysical …

Control of absorption spectra in chromophores is a fundamental aspect of many
photochemical and photophysical processes as it constitutes the first step of the global …

A series of covalently linked oxasmaragdyrin‐amino acid and BF2‐oxasamaragdyrin–amino
acid conjugates were synthesized by treating oxasmaragdyrin or its BF2 complex that …
