A BODIPY–coumarin-based selective fluorescent probe for rapidly detecting hydrogen sulfide in blood plasma and living cells

We report a sensitive and selective fluorescent probe SFP-BC for hydrogen sulfide detection based on BODIPY–coumarin platform. SFP-BC shows a significant emission increase in the fast response to sulfide at physiological pH. Utilizing this probe, we have successfully detected hydrogen sulfide in fresh mouse blood plasma and in live cells.
