We have synthesized hydroxyl-radical (OH) responsive fluorescent probes using the 3,5-dihydroxybenzyl (DHB) functionality. In the presence of OH radicals, Umb-DHB and Res-DHB showed significant increases in fluorescence emission intensities at 460 nm and 585 nm respectively. Incubating Res-DHB in HeLa cells followed by therapeutic ultrasound resulted in a significant increase in fluorescence emission intensity, allowing the monitoring of ultrasound-induced OH production in live cells.
We report the synthesis of hydroxyl-radical (OH) responsive fluorescent probes that utilise the 3,5-dihydroxybenzyl (DHB) functionality. 4-Methylumbeliferone-DHB (Umb-DHB) and resorufin-DHB (Res-DHB) in the presence of OH radicals resulted in significant increases in their respective fluorescent emission intensities at 460 nm and 585 nm. The incubation of Res-DHB in HeLa cells followed by therapeutic ultrasound (1 MHz) resulted in a significant increase in fluorescence emission intensity thus permitting the ability to monitor ultrasound-induced OH production in live cells.
