posted on 2015-09-15, 14:54 authored by James W. Walton, Adrien Bourdolle, Stephen ButlerStephen Butler, Marine Soulie, Martina Delbianco, Brian K. McMahon, Robert Pal, Horst Puschmann, Jurriaan M. Zwier, Laurent Lamarque, Olivier Maury, Chantal Andraud, David ParkerThe synthesis, structure and photophysical properties of a series of highly emissive europium complexes is reported. Certain complexes enter mammalian cells by macropinocytosis and stain the mitochondria selectively, allowing observation of the Eu emission in cellulo by time-gated spectral imaging
