During the last few years, the preparation of novel fluorescent probes for the selective
detection of chemical species inside mitochondria has attracted considerable attention …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen, synthesizing two major
siderophores, pyoverdine (Pvd) and pyochelin (Pch), to cover its needs in iron (III). If the high …

Cations are ubiquitous for biological systems and play a very critical role in our cellular level,
extracellular fluids (mostly monovalent cations) and in central nervous system …

Iron is an essential element for plants and microbes. However, in most cultivated soils, the
concentration of iron available for these living organisms is very low because its solubility is …

A common problem in detecting metal ions with fluorescentchemosensors is the emission-
suppressing effects of fluorescence-quenching metal ions. This quenching tendency makes …

A new rhodamine-based fluorescent chemosensor (1) for transition metal cations was
synthesized by one-step facile condensation of rhodamine B and 2-aminopyridine. Without …
