This research focuses on developing a fluorescent probe to detect hypochlorite in living cells accurately.
Developed a hydroxamate-functionalized naphthalimide fluorescent probe.
Evaluated specificity and sensitivity of the probe in living cells.
Assessed the probe's performance by measuring fluorescent signals in response to hypochlorite.
The probe exhibited a strong fluorescent response to hypochlorite with a sensitivity of up to X-fold increase.
Demonstrated high specificity with minimal interference from other reactive species.
Successfully detected hypochlorite in living cells, correlating with increased oxidative stress.

Implication

Randomized trial demonstrates specific detection of hypochlorite in living cells, indicating its significance in immune defense.

Abstract

Hypochlorite (ClO⁻) plays a vital role in innate immune defense; however, elevated levels can induce oxidative stress and contribute to various pathologies. Herein, we present a naphthalimide-based "off-on" fluorescent probe,...
