Abstract:
A chemosensor, 3-aminophenol-based rhodamine conjugate (ARC) has been developed for visualisation
of diethylchlorophosphate (DCP), mimic of a chemical warfare agent, in Catfish brain. The simple
detection of DCP by “turn-on” fluorescence property of the chemosensor makes it unique for easy and
rapid in vivo and in vitro detection of DCP with the detection limit of 5.6 nM.
