title: Fluorescent chemodosimeters using "mild" chemical events for the detection of small anions and cations in biological and environmental media.
abstract: Mild chemical processes of various analytes and detection methods involving revolutionary strategies in the fields of analytical chemistry, biology and environmental sciences have been extensively developed. This critical review focuses on representative examples of mild chemical processes that can be used in fluorescent chemodosimeters for ion sensing (anions and cations). A systematisation according to the type of reaction mechanism is established. Numerous examples including extensions combined with catalytic and material sciences applicable in fluorescence imaging and water treatment are also discussed (151 references).
