title: A seminaphthofluorescein-based fluorescent chemodosimeter for the highly selective detection of cysteine.
abstract: A fluorescent chemodosimeter for cysteine detection was developed based on a tandem conjugate addition and intramolecular cyclization reaction. The method exhibited an excellent selectivity for cysteine over other biothiols such as homocysteine and glutathione.
