In article number 1800213 , Lixuan Mu, Wensheng Shi, and co‐workers develop a single silicon nanowire‐based fluorescent sensor for endogenous hypochlorite in individual cells. By inserting the functionalized single nanowire into the cell and measuring its fluorescence, the hypochlorite in the cell can be detected. The strategy presented in this work opens a new door to a variety of studies by combining the strengths of single‐cell detecting techniques with biology.
