Abstract

Fluorophores with photo-modulatory fluorescence properties are valuable for cutting-edge localization microscopy. The existing probes are either photo-activatable, or photo-switchable, but not both. We report a probe (DH-SiR), a leuco-dye obtained by reduction of Si-rhodamine, with both photo-activatable and photo-switchable fluorescence. The potential for super-resolution microscopy was showcased.
