Lighting up fluoride ions in cellular mitochondria using a highly selective and sensitive fluorescent probe

Abstract

We report a highly selective and sensitive fluorescent probe (FP) for detecting fluoride ions, for the first time, lighting up the fluoride ions in mitochondria with a strong green fluorescence. FP could be easily prepared as fluoride paper test strips to detect fluoride ions in aqueous solutions with a detection limit as low as 19 ppb.
