design of bio-marker detection fluorescent probes.

Fluorescent probes capable of sensing the biological medium are of utmost importance in medical diagnostics. However, the optical spectrum of such probes needs to be tuned with care for compatibility with living tissues. More specifically, fluorescent bioprobes must be adjusted so as to avoid light interference with pigments ( hemoglobin), tissue photodamage, scattering of the emitted light, and autofluorescence.
