A critical drawback of common ROS probes hydrocyanines is described. When oxidised by ROS, intracellular hydro-Cy3 accumulates in polarised mitochondria. Cy3 signal dissipates and loses brightness upon mitochondrial depolarisation Cy3 may misinform on the quantity of ROS and their main production sites in the cell. Control of mitochondrial polarisation state is mandatory when using hydrocyanines.
