Abstract:
... Carbon dioxide (CO₂) responsive fluorescent systems mainly focus on modification of fluorophores with specific CO₂-responsive groups, the processes of which are usually tedious and time-consuming. Here, we report a facile strategy for fabricating CO₂-responsive fluorescent system by employing a surfactant, N,N-Dimethyl-1- dodecanamine (C₁₂A), to form an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion and a fluorophor ...
