| Bioactivity | Prodan, a solvatochromic fluorophore, has been used as a microenvironment-sensitive membrane reporter. Based on the chemistry of Prodan, fluorescent nucleosides are designed and synthesized.The fluorescent nucleosides sensitively varied the Stokes shift values depending on the orientational polarizability of the solvent[1]. |
