A near-infrared-emitting fluorescent probe for monitoring mitochondrial pH

Abstract

We demonstrate a new small molecule fluorescent probe, possessing near-infrared (NIR) emission and an unusually large Stokes shift. It can be readily taken up by live cells and mitochondria, and track subtle pH changes with effectively reduced biological background fluorescence and improved measurement accuracy.
