New fluorescent probes have been tested for their ability to detect nitramine (RDX) and nitroaromatic (TNT) explosives. The probes display turn-on behavior upon exposure to RDX, while their fluorescence is dramatically reduced by the presence of TNT and other nitroaromatic compounds. The probes are applicable in qualitative assays that can distinguish between RDX and TNT as well as acidity and formaldehyde vapors.
新的荧光探针已被测试其检测硝胺(RDX)和硝基芳烃(TNT)爆炸物的能力。这些探针在暴露于 RDX 时表现出开启行为,而其荧光则因 TNT 和其他硝基芳烃化合物的存在而显著降低。这些探针适用于定性分析,可以区分 RDX 和 TNT 以及酸和甲醛蒸气。
