Article Abstract
A certain amount of hypochlorite can help to regulate the body's defense system while excessive hypochlorite has some complex influence on health. Herein, a thiophene-derived biocompatible turn-on fluorescent probe (TPHZ) was synthesized and characterized for the detection of hypochlorite (ClO). The fluorescence and colorimetric sensing of the probe followed an ICT OFF strategy. The experimental results showed a remarkable turn on fluorescence enhancement from colorless to bright blue after the addition of ClO within 130 s in a solvent system having 80% water with high selectivity and a low detection limit of 53.8 nM. The sensing mechanism was attributed to ClO mediated electrophilic addition to the imine bond which was justified by DFT calculations, and ESI-MS and H-NMR titration experiments. The probe was used in an application to visualize ClO in human breast cancer cells which can be helpful for investigating the functions of hypochlorite in living cells. Finally, by virtue of fine photophysical properties, good sensing performance, good water solubility and low limit of detection, the probe TPHZ was successfully applied to TLC test strips, and commercial bleach and water samples.

A hydrophilic phenothiazine-based fluorescent probe (PTZMN) was developed for the selective and sensitive detection of hypochlorite (ClO) in pure water. Upon ClO stimulation, PTZMN exhibited a distinct colorimetric shift and a "turn-on" fluorescence response at 496 nm, with a low detection limit of 5.2 × 10 mol/L and excellent linearity (R = 0.

With the increasing emphasis on environmental safety, food inspection, and plant physiological functions, the development of high-performance fluorescent probes capable of highly sensitive, specific, rapid, and visual detection of target analytes has become a focal point in current research. Hemicyanine groups are widely utilized in the design of organic small-molecule fluorophores due to their low cost, structural stability, and ease of chemical modification. Through simple structural adjustments, the photoluminescent properties of hemicyanine-based fluorophores can be significantly enhanced, enabling strong signal output and maintaining stable fluorescence intensity across various solvents and pH conditions-features that make them particularly suitable for complex biological and chemical environments.

Sulfite (HSO) and hypochlorous acid (HClO) serve as essential food additives and key raw materials in bleaching agents. However, excessive consumption of these compounds may disrupt cellular redox homeostasis, leading to a series of adverse physical effects. Therefore, the development of reliable analytical methods to detect HSO and HClO levels in food products is of significant importance.

The simultaneous monitoring of hypochlorous acid (HClO) and pH dynamics is crucial for deciphering their synergistic roles in oxidative stress-related pathologies and environmental processes, yet remains technically challenging due to spectral interference and divergent response mechanisms in existing probes. Herein, we present RN-HP, a rationally engineered fluorescent probe capable of detecting HClO and pH through dual independent emission channels. RN-HP exhibited significantly enhanced fluorescence at 577 nm in the presence of HOCl, demonstrating good selectivity and high sensitivity (linear range: 0.
