Abstract
) in biological systems. All the candidates are organized according to their structures, and the sensing mechanisms of fluorescent probes are also highly taken into account. Finally, the challenges, trends and prospects of fluorescent probes in metal ion detection are discussed. We hope that this review can provide guidance for the development of fluorescent molecular probe-based alkali and alkaline earth metal ion detection methods in the future.
