A new pH-responsive fluorescent probe has been reported based on protonation-activable resonance charge transfer. In aqueous solution, probe PQ-Lyso exhibits ratiometric detection of pH changes with a large hypsochromic shift of 76 nm and remarkable changes in the fluorescence intensity ratio (R = F(494 nm)/F(570 nm), R/R(0) = 105). Furthermore, PQ-Lyso, which is localized to lysosomes in living cells, can calibrate lysosomal pH using fluorescence ratiometry.
一种新的基于质子激活共振电荷转移的 pH 响应荧光探针已经被报道。在水溶液中,探针 PQ-Lyso 能够进行 pH 值变化的比率检测,其最大的蓝移为 76nm,荧光强度比(R = F(494nm)/F(570nm),R/R(0) = 105)有显著变化。此外,PQ-Lyso 可以在活细胞的溶酶体中定位,并使用荧光比率法对溶酶体 pH 值进行校准。
