Fluorescence imaging of hypochlorous acid and peroxynitrite in vitro and in vivo with emission wavelength beyond 750 nm†
Abstract
A series of near-infrared and photostable Si-oxazine fluorescent dyes was synthesized using a simple three-step procedure, and one of their reduced products, i.e. hydro-Si-oxazine HSiO3, has been utilized to sensitively detect hypochlorous acid and peroxynitrite generation by phagocytes in inflamed and pulmonary fibrosis diseased mice with emission wavelength beyond 750 nm.
