However, no studies have yet determined which type of features provides better screening effectiveness, especially in the large aging population of China.

A novel Schiff-base fluorescent probe, 4-(N-(2- hydroxyl-1-naphthalymethylimino)-ethylamino) -7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole (HENB) was synthesized and utilized for spectral sensing of Fe ions at neutral pH. The binding of Fe to HENB in CHOH-HEPES buffer (1:1 v/ v, 25 mM, pH 7.2) resulted in a pronounced emission enhancement at 530 nm, which is possibly due to the inhibition of photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process as well as the chelation enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) effect.
