A smart switchable module for the detection of multiple ions via turn-on dual-optical readout and their cell imaging studies.
A module switchable as a function of multi-stimuli response has been designed. The module displays sequential logic gate-based detection of multiple ions (Fe(3+), Hg(2+), CN(-) and S(2-)) at ppm levels via a "turn on" signature which potentially meets real-world-challenges through a simple synthetic route, a fast response, water based-activity, naked-eye visualization, regenerative-action, high selectivity and multiple readout for precise analysis. Living cell imaging of Fe(3+) and Hg(2+) has also been carried out in HeLa cell lines.
