A sensitive colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescent probe for mercury species in aqueous solution and living cells

Abstract

A highly sensitive and selective fluorescent probe for inorganic and organic mercury species displays colorimetric and ratiometric response in a buffer solution via mercury promoted cleavage reaction. The probe is demonstrated to detect CH3HgCl in living cells.
