A ColorimetricRatiometric Fluorescent Probe Based on Aggregation-Induced Emission Effect for Detecting Hypochlorous Acid in Real Samples and Bioimaging Applications

Hypochlorous acid (HClO) serves as a biological mediator and is widely utilized as a disinfectant in food processing and water treatment. However, excessive HClO residues in food and environmental water raise concerns due to the potential formation of carcino- genic chlorinated byproducts and disinfection byproducts (DBPs). Despite its importance, traditional methods for HClO detection often involve complex sample preparation, sophis- ticated instrumentation, and skilled operators. Herein, we...
