A red emitting mitochondria-targeted AIE probe as an indicator for membrane potential and mouse sperm activity.
In this work, a red emission AIE active mitochondrial probe is developed. It is the first non-self-quenching mitochondria specific probe with membrane potential sensitivity. Its application in sensing the membrane potential differences in mouse sperm cells is demonstrated.
