Paper accepted in Chemical Communications

Our collaborative study on fluorescence-based intracellular imaging with Prof. Kyo Han Ahn (POSTECH) has been accepted for publication in Chemical Communications. This work reports a discrepancy of fluorescent properties between solutions and intracellular environment. Along with this finding, we have developed a series of benzocoumarin dyes which has environment-insensitive characteristics for super-bright bioimaging.
