title: A highly sensitive, selective ratiometric fluorescent probe for cobalt(II) and its applications for biological imaging.
abstract: Probe has been developed as the first ratiometric fluorescent cobalt probe with high sensitivity and selectivity based on internal charge transfer (ICT). Most importantly, the probe achieved the imaging and detection of cobalt in cells with ratiometric measurement.
