Dual-color imaging of cytosolic and mitochondrial zinc ions in live tissues with two-photon fluorescent probes.

We report two-photon probes for Zn(2+) ions that can simultaneously detect cytosolic and mitochondrial Zn(2+) ions in live cells and living tissues at 115 mm depth by dual-color TPM imaging with minimum interference from other biologically relevant species.
