Popis: Magnetically modulated optical nanoprobes (MagMOONs) have been synthesized for the detection of pH changes in intracellular environments. MagMOONs are nanosensors designed to emit fluorescent signals and to blink in response to rotating magnetic fields. Separating the blinking probe signal from the unmodulated background signal allows for simple and sensitive detection of low analyte concentrations in the presence of autofluoresence.
