Colorimetric and fluorescent detection of biological thiols in aqueous solution

Biological thiols could be detected in 100% aqueous solution with high selectivity and sensitivity in physiological pH conditions. A new colorimetric and fluorescent probe, 2-(2,4-dinitrostyryl)-1,3,3-trimethyl-3H-indolium iodide (DTI), for selective and sensitive detection of biological thiols is r...

Description
Summary:Biological thiols could be detected in 100% aqueous solution with high selectivity and sensitivity in physiological pH conditions. A new colorimetric and fluorescent probe, 2-(2,4-dinitrostyryl)-1,3,3-trimethyl-3H-indolium iodide (DTI), for selective and sensitive detection of biological thiols is reported. In aqueous solution at physiological pH 7.4, biological thiols react with DTI via Michael addition to give the brownish red adduct concomitant with fluorescence emission decrease.
