Predicting the membrane permeability of organic fluorescent probes by the deep neural network based lipophilicity descriptor DeepFl-LogP

Abstract Light microscopy has become an indispensable tool for the life sciences, as it enables the rapid acquisition of three-dimensional images from the interior of living cells/tissues. Over the last decades, super-resolution light microscopy techniques have been developed, which allow a resoluti...
