Boronic acids can reversibly bind diols, a molecular feature that is ubiquitous within
saccharides, leading to their use in the design and implementation of sensors for numerous …

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important endogenous gas signal molecule in living system,
which participates in a variety of physiological processes. Very recent evidence has …

A high brightness red fluorescent probe (S-BODIPY) has been developed for the sensitive
and specific imaging of HClO/ClO–in vitro and in vivo. This probe exhibits some distinctive …

A fluorescent probe for the monitoring of H2S levels in living cells and organisms is highly
desirable. In this regard, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes have emerged as a …

Organic and organometallic molecules, which change their luminescence properties
through a mechanical stimulus, such as emission wavelength and quantum yield, are called …

Fluorescent probes in the second near‐infrared window (NIR‐II) allow high‐resolution
bioimaging with deep‐tissue penetration. However, existing NIR‐II materials often have poor …

Activatable molecular probes hold great promise for targeted cancer imaging. However, the
hydrophobic nature of most conventional probes makes them generate precipitated …

The greatest advantage of activatable fluorescence probes (AFPs) is the inherent
responsiveness to manipulate spectroscopic properties by chemical/physical interactions …

Afterglow luminescent probes with high signal-to-background ratio show promise for in vivo
