The reaction takes place even when the probe is trapped within a PMMA layer on top of a glass plate. In that arrangement, fluoride in aqueous solutions can be detected selectively at low micromolar concentrations.EnglishChemiluminescence sensing of fluoride ions using a self-immolative amplifierArticle10.1021/ol50034121523-7052
