| Summary: | Zinc is an essential trace metal element in the human body, but it also constitutes a variety of proteins in the body of the important elements necessary; this element plays an important role in physiological metabolism. Disturbances in the metabolism of zinc ions in the body can significantly threaten human health, especially neurological diseases. Therefore, developing a rapid and straightforward method for determining zinc ions is important. Fluorescent probe technology has been widely used for detecting and labeling zinc ions. Among many fluorescent probes, the rhodamine derivative LPDQ fluorescent probe has unique application scenarios, for example, it plays an important role in the detection of zinc white in oil colors, and its advantages are simplicity, rapidity, and real-time operation. This paper introduces the types of fluorescent probes for zinc ions and the three main mechanisms of fluorescent probe detection. The characteristics, design strategies, and application effects of the three fluorescent probes for zinc ions, as well as their advantages and limitations, are reviewed and summarized, which are intended to provide valuable references for the development of new probes for zinc ions detection in the future and for the future direction of research in this field. |
