Abstract

Spectroscopic probes have been extensively investigated and widely used in various fields because of their high sensitivity as well as their high temporal and spatial resolution capability for imaging studies. Author?s research group has been engaged in this area for about two decades, during which a series of new spectroscopic probes and sensing methods for biologically active species have been developed by taking advantage of specific chemical reactions. In this talk, special focus will be on recent researches on the development of spectroscopic probes and sensing systems for the assay of enzymes and intracellular pH
