Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) detection in biological systems is of significant importance, which act as critical second messenger in fundamental biological processes. Here, we report on a chemoselective fluorescent naphthylimide peroxide probe (NPP) for the H2O2 detection in vitro and in vivo. NPP is a phenylboronic acid-caged chromophore that selectively responds to H2O2 through a self-immolate mechanism. NPP exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity to H2O2 with distinctive fluorescence change du ...[more]
