Fluorogenic probes for super-resolution microscopy

Abstract

Fluorogenic probes efficiently reduce non-specific background signals, which often results in highly improved signal-to-noise ratios. Although this implies improved resolution, fluorogenic probes in the context of super-resolution microscopy are somewhat overlooked. Several excellent reviews summarize recent developments in SRM techniques, labeling techniques or different aspects of small synthetic fluorophores, however there is no comprehensive review on fluorogenic probes suitable for super-resolution microscopy. Herein we wish to fill this gap by providing the readers with an up-to-date summary of fluorogenic probes applied to super-resolution imaging of cellular structures.
