Recent Trends in Rhodamine derivatives as fluorescent probes for biomaterial applications

摘要

Rhodamine dyes are widely used as fluorescent probes owing to their high fluorescence quantum yield and photo-stability. Although minute quantities of heavy metal ions are necessary for the living organ-isms. They play vital roles in biological, environmental, and chemical systems, but excessive amounts have a damaging effect on the organisms. The development of chemo-sensor is important for sensing and recognizing environmentally and biologically applications. The probes are invaluable for the dynam-ics of gene expression, protein expression, and molecular interactions in complex living systems. They are often used as scaffolds in biological labeling and turn-on fluorescence imaging. This review is a collection of research articles discussed in the context of the structural features of rhodamine derivatives organized according to their fluorescent core scaffold and with their representative applications.
