説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Photostable organic dyes are highly demanded for longtime or super‐resolution bioimaging. Herein, we demonstrate effective improvement of photostability of a coumarin dye (Pacific Blue (<jats:bold>PB</jats:bold>)) by steric protection using a cyclodextrin. The <jats:bold>PB</jats:bold> conjugated cyclodextrin (<jats:bold>PB−CD</jats:bold>) showed 2.8 times higher photostability than PB ethyl amide (<jats:bold>PB−EA</jats:bold>) which is a comparative compound in vitro. The cyclodextrin conjugation to <jats:bold>PB</jats:bold> not only protect <jats:bold>PB</jats:bold> unit from reactive chemicals, but also suppress reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation which causes dye degradation. The effects afford significant improvement of photostability of <jats:bold>PB</jats:bold> dye. Finally, the photostability of <jats:bold>PB−CD</jats:bold> was evaluated using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and the significant improvement effect was proofed even in living cells.</jats:p>
