Selective detection of ozone in inflamed mice using a novel activatable chemiluminescent probe

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Mar 29;58(26):4184-4187. doi: 10.1039/d2cc00359g.

Abstract

We report here an activatable chemiluminescent probe CL-O3 for the high-contrast imaging of O3in vivo. CL-O3 exhibited a high selectivity toward O3 and was able to evaluate the degree of inflammation in mice by detecting endogenous O3 levels in acute inflamed mice.
