“…Compared with common analysis methods such as fluorescent spectroscopy, potentiometry, and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), 9,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18] which are cumbersome and less used for the intracellular detection of biological thiols, fluorescent probes have attracted increasing attention in this field because of their simple operation, high resolution, high sensitivity, real-time detection, penetrability and noninvasiveness. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] At present, more and more small molecule fluorescent probes and nanosensors have been designed, synthesized, and extensively used in the detection of biological thiols. [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] So far, numerous fluorescent probes for Cys detection based on various reaction mechanisms have been synthesized and reported, which are mainly based on Michael addition reactions, cleavage of disulfide bonds, substitution reactions, disulfide exchange, etc., 35 and nanosensors are mainly based on the colorimetric reaction of the aggregation of gold nanoparticles, the aggregation of graphene quantum dots and the fluorescence reaction, etc.…”
