Abstract
This review provides a thorough examination of small molecule-based fluorescence chemosensors tailored for bioimaging applications, showcasing their unique ability to visualize biological processes with exceptional sensitivity and selectivity. It explores recent advancements, methodologies, and applications in this domain, focusing on various designs rooted in anthracene, benzothiazole, naphthalene, quinoline, and Schiff base. Structural modifications and molecular engineering strategies are emphasized for enhancing sensor performance, including heightened sensitivity, selectivity, and biocompatibility. Additionally, the review offers valuable insights into the ongoing development and utilization of these chemosensors, addressing current challenges and charting future directions in this rapidly evolving field.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Fluorescence is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original articles that advance the practice of this established spectroscopic technique. Topics covered include advances in theory/and or data analysis, studies of the photophysics of aromatic molecules, solvent, and environmental effects, development of stationary or time-resolved measurements, advances in fluorescence microscopy, imaging, photobleaching/recovery measurements, and/or phosphorescence for studies of cell biology, chemical biology and the advanced uses of fluorescence in flow cytometry/analysis, immunology, high throughput screening/drug discovery, DNA sequencing/arrays, genomics and proteomics. Typical applications might include studies of macromolecular dynamics and conformation, intracellular chemistry, and gene expression. The journal also publishes papers that describe the synthesis and characterization of new fluorophores, particularly those displaying unique sensitivities and/or optical properties. In addition to original articles, the Journal also publishes reviews, rapid communications, short communications, letters to the editor, topical news articles, and technical and design notes.
