, (2013/03/28)
The present invention is directed to an indicator for targeting zinc(II) ions in a composition, e.g., a biological sample such as for targeting mitochondrial zinc (II) ions. The present invention is directed to a method for preparing an indicator that targets mitochondrial zinc(II), and a method of measuring the concentration of mitochondrial zinc(II) ions.
