  • Fluorescent probes for silver ION detection
    Patent number: 12029796
    Abstract: Fluorescent probes for silver ion detection include organic, water-soluble compounds having aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics. The probes can sense or detect silver ions through aggregation or a precipitation reaction between the silver ions and the organic compounds which induces fluorescence. The compounds are acidic, soluble in aqueous phase, and provide low background fluorescence in aqueous solutions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 7, 2018
    Date of Patent: July 9, 2024
    Assignee: THE HONG KONG UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
    Inventors: Benzhong Tang, Sijie Chen, Sheng Xie, Wenxiong Wang, Neng Yan, Alex Yu Hin Wong
