Here, we develop a new sialyllactosyl probe with self-assembled core-shell structure for the ratiometric detection and blocking of IVs. N,N'-diaryl-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazines were used to form the core structure by hydrophobic assembly in an aqueous solution with an aggregation-enhanced blue fluorescence mission.Subsequently, dicyanomethylene-4 H-pyran-based sialyllactosides were used for self-assembly with the core structure, producing the sialyllactosyl probe that emits a red fluorescence due to Forster resonance energy transfer. The probe developed has been proven to be available for(1) the fluorescence ratiometric detection of IVs through selective interaction with the sialyllactosyl-binding proteins on the virus surface,and(2) effectively blocking the invasion of human-infecting IVs towards host cells as accentuated by the sialyllactosides on the surface of the probes.展开更多
