A Ratiometric Fluorescent Probe Based on FRET for Imaging Hg 2+ Ions in Living Cells

Zhang, Xiaolin, Xiao, Yi, Qian, Xuhong·2008·Angewandte Chemie International Edition

Abstract

Mercury rising: A FRET-based ratiometric probe (see picture; FRET=fluorescence resonance energy transfer) can selectively detect Hg2+ ions on the parts-per-billion scale under physiological conditions. The probe undergoes a clear Hg2+-induced change in the intensity ratio of the two well-separated and equally intense emission bands of dipyrrometheneboron difluoride and rhodamine. Experiments show that the probe can be used in living cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
