A simple fluorescent off–on probe for the discrimination of cysteine from glutathione

Abstract

A simple and stable fluorescent off–on probe for discrimination of cysteine (Cys) from glutathione (GSH) has been developed by combining resorufin with 7-nitrobenzofurazan. The probe, displaying distinct emission patterns for Cys and GSH at just one excitation wavelength, can be used for simultaneous determination of Cys and GSH in human plasma.
