Novel Ultrasensitive Fluorescent Probe for Bioimaging Carboxylesterase and Detecting Pesticide Residues in Foods

Pesticide residues pose a significant threat to food safety and human health, necessitating the development of novel detection tools. Pesticides can inhibit the activity of certain biological enzymes, so enzyme inhibition is one of the methods of pesticide detection. In this study, we developed a novel near-infrared fluorescent probe named
