Abstract

During the last few years, the preparation of bifunctional fluorescent probes, which exhibit differential response towards multiple analytes, has attracted considerable attention since they are cost-effective and highly desirable for real-time applications. This review focuses on the recent advances in the design principles, recognition mechanisms, and applications of multifunctional fluorescent probes for the differential detection of multiple guests.

Keywords: Bifunctional fluorescence probe, mechanism, applications, fluorescence materials, chemosensor, multifunctional model.
