Aggregation-Induced Fluorescence Probe for Monitoring Membrane Potential Changes in Mitochondria

Fluorescent probe 2 was designed for selectively determining mitochondria membrane potential changes. The probe selectively detects changes in the mitochondria membrane potential in a manner that is more sensitive than that of the commercially available indicator, Rodamine 123. As a result, the probe 2 is ideal for future studies designed to assess the functions of mitochondria in cells.
