A lysosome targetable fluorescent probe for endogenous imaging of hydrogen peroxide in living cells

Abstract

A lysosome targetable naphthalimide based fluorescent probe (LyNC) has been designed and synthesized which detects hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with high selectivity and sensitivity in brain tissues and in living nematodes among various ROS/RNS tested. Further, the probe LyNC was successfully employed in exogenous and endogenous imaging of H2O2 in living cell lines.
