Recognition of Thiols in Living Cells and Zebrafish Using an Imidazo[1,5-α]pyridine-Derivative Indicator

A new cyan fluorescent probe, <b>MIPY-DNBS</b>, using an imidazo[1,5-&#945;]pyridine derivative as the fluorophore and 2,4-dinitrobenzensufonate as the recognition site for the selective detection of thiols (Cys, GSH, and Hcy), was designed and synthesized. Probe <b>MIPY-DNBS&l...
