Used as a luminescent probe in biological imaging and oxygen sensing due to its ability to emit phosphorescence when exposed to specific wavelengths, making it valuable for tracking cellular processes and monitoring oxygen levels in polar or aqueous environments. Its strong photostability and long emission lifetime allow for time-resolved phosphorescence detection, reducing background interference in complex biological samples. Also employed in photodynamic therapy research, where it can generate reactive oxygen species upon light activation to target cancer cells. Additionally, serves as a sensor in electrochemiluminescence assays for detecting biomolecules like DNA and proteins. Often incorporated into polymer matrices or glass materials for oxygen sensors in biological processes, food industry, fermentation control, or respiratory systems. Furthermore, utilized in photochemistry and optoelectronic materials research due to its controllable emission properties.
