Dual-mode chemosensor for the fluorescence detection of zinc and hypochlorite on a fluorescein backbone and its cell-imaging applications

Dual mode chemosensor fluorescein coupled with 3-(aminomethyl)-4,6-dimethylpyridin-2(1 H )-one (FAD) has been reported for simultaneous detection of Zn 2+ and OCl − by metal coordination and chemodosimetric approach respectively.
