The invention provides a method of labeling of cellular glycans bearing azide group via a fluorescent labeling technique. The method entails generating fluorescent probe form a nonfluorescent precursor, 4-ethynyl-N-ethyl-1,8-naphthalimide, by Cu(I)-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition (click activation) of alkyne group of the probe with an azido-containing fucose analog into glycoprotein via the fucose salvage pathway. Cells treated with 6-azidofucose are labeled with the click activated fluorogenic probe or biotinylated alkyne.
