A G-quadruplex-selective luminescent switch-on probe for the detection of sub-nanomolar human neutrophil elastase

A novel G-quadruplex-selective luminescent iridium(III) complex has been employed as a signal-transducing element for the sensitive and selective switch-on detection of sub-nanomolar human neutrophil elastase (HNE) in homogenous solution.
