Detection of hypochlorous acid (HClO) in the living system may help to uncover its essential biological functions. However, current imaging agents suffer from poor water solubility that limit their live-tissue applications. Here, a water-soluble probe (NNH) is devised through innovative hydrazone modification of 1,8-naphthalimide at 3' position. NNH was successfully applied to tracking endogenous HClO in both cultured macrophages and a liver injury model in mice. NNH demonstrated remarkably increased water solubility and multiple desirable features including two-photon absorbance, anti-bleaching capability, rapid cellular uptake, and low cytotoxicity. NNH is the first hydrazone-based probe for real-time imaging of HClO in live tissue.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and influenza A virus are primarily transmitted through droplets or aerosols from patients. The inactivation effects of existing virus control techniques may vary depending on the environmental factors. Therefore, it is important to establish a suitable evaluation system for assessing virus control techniques against airborne viruses for further real-world implementation.

Article Synopsis
- Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a reactive oxygen species produced in mitochondria, and its high levels are associated with various diseases, making its detection crucial in medicine.
- A new dual-modality probe called MB-ClO has been developed, which uses near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging techniques to accurately and sensitively detect HClO in biological systems.
- MB-ClO shows low toxicity and good water solubility, has a fast response time, and has been successfully tested in a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis, highlighting its potential for biomedical applications.

The reversal of phototaxis has been observed in a wide range of animal species. However, environmental chemicals that can cause a quick reversal of phototaxis have rarely been reported. Here we identified hypochlorous acid (HClO) as an inducer of phototactic reversal in , also known as sea fireflies.

Hypochlorous acid(HClO)/hypochlorite ion (ClO-) is a highly reactive oxygen species (ROS) that play a crucial role in various biological processes. In this paper, a "turn-on" phosphorescent probe (Ir-TPP) for detecting ClO- in mitochondria was designed and synthesized. In solution, Ir-TPP is minimal emission due to rapid isomerization of C=N-OH as an efficient non-radiative decay process.
