A switch-on luminescent europium(III) probe for selective and time-resolved detection of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) (2025)
Journal Article
Bodman, S. E., Stachelek, P., Rehman, U., Plasser, F., Pal, R., & Butler, S. J. (online). A switch-on luminescent europium(III) probe for selective and time-resolved detection of adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Chemical Science, https://doi.org/10.1039/d4sc07188c

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is a key product of two essential classes of biological reactions, catalysed by ATPases and kinases. This makes ADP a highly appealing target for supramolecular detection. However, doing so selectively is exceedingly diffi... Read More about A switch-on luminescent europium(III) probe for selective and time-resolved detection of adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

EuroTracker dyes: highly emissive europium complexes as alternative organelle stains for live cell imaging (2014)
Journal Article

The synthesis, structure and photophysical properties of a series of highly emissive europium complexes is reported. Certain complexes enter mammalian cells by macropinocytosis and stain the mitochondria selectively, allowing observation of the Eu em...
