title: A highly sensitive and selective turn-on fluorogenic and chromogenic sensor based on BODIPY-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles for detecting lead in living cells.
abstract: A new fluoro-chromogenic chemosensor based on BODIPY-functionalized Fe(3)O(4)@SiO(2) core/shell nanoparticles 1 has been prepared. Chemosensor 1 exhibits a high affinity and selectivity for Pb(2+) over competing metal ions tested. Moreover, confocal microscopy, and flow cytometry experiments established that 1 can be used for detecting Pb(2+) levels within living cell.
