Visible light excitable ON fluorescence and naked eye detection of Cu²⁺ via hydrolysis of rhodamine-thiophene conjugate: human breast cancer cell (MCF7) imaging studies.
Thiophene appended rhodaminehydrazone derivative, RDHDTCA allows selective colorimetric and fluorescence recognition of Cu(2+) as low as 2.4 × 10(-8) M. RDHDTCA is capable to detect intracellular Cu(2+) in human breast cancer cells, MCF7 under fluorescence microscope.
