Oligochitosan-stabilized photoluminescent gold nanoconstructs for optical bioimaging
BACKGROUND Gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) are typically composed of several to tens of gold atoms which are stabilized with biomacromolecules such as bovine serum albumin (BSA). Au NCs fluoresces in the visible to near infrared region, in a size-dependent manner. AuNCs solutions have potential as fluorophore in a wide range of biomedical applications such as biodetection, biosensing and bioimaging i...
متن کاملStrongly green-photoluminescent graphene quantum dots for bioimaging applications.
Strongly fluorescent graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have been prepared by one-step solvothermal method with PL quantum yield as high as 11.4%. The GQDs have high stability and can be dissolved in most polar solvents. Because of fine biocompatibility and low toxicity, GQDs are demonstrated to be excellent bioimaging agents.
متن کاملHighly photoluminescent carbon dots for multicolor patterning, sensors, and bioimaging.
Fluorescent carbon-based materials have drawn increasing attention in recent years owing to exceptional advantages such as high optical absorptivity, chemical stability, biocompatibility, and low toxicity. These materials primarily include carbon dots (CDs), nanodiamonds, carbon nanotubes, fullerene, and fluorescent graphene. The superior properties of fluorescent carbon-based materials disting...
متن کاملMultiplex Photoluminescent Silicon Nanoprobe for Diagnostic Bioimaging and Intracellular Analysis
Herein, a label-free multiplex photoluminescent silicon nanoprobe (PLSN-probe) is introduced as a potential substitute for quantum dots (QDs) in bioimaging. An inherently non-photoluminescent silicon substrate is altered to create the PLSN-probe, to overcome the major drawbacks of presently available QDs. Additionally, crystallinity alterations of the multiplane crystalline PLSN-probes lead to ...
متن کاملGold-Speckled Multimodal Nanoparticles for Noninvasive Bioimaging
Multimodal Gold-speckled silica nanoparticles as contrast agents for noninvasive imaging with magnetic resonance imaging and photoacoustic tomography have been prepared in a simple one-pot synthesis using nonionic microemulsions. Magnetic resonance contrast is provided through gadolinium incorporated in the silica matrix, whereas the photoacoustic signal originates from nonuniform, discontinuou...
