چکیده

A method of introducing intrinsically photo luminescent properties to biodegradable polymer is introduced, exemplified by the synthesis of intrinsically photoluminescent polylactones that enable non-invasive monitoring and tracking of material degradation in vivo in realtime, as well as the formation of theranostic nanoparticles for cancer imaging and drug delivery.

Synthesis of photoluminescent carbogenic dots using mesoporous silica spheres as nanoreactors.

A novel and facile approach for preparing hydrophilic carbogenic dots (CDs) has been developed with mesoporous silica spheres as nanoreactors by using an impregnation method. The resulting highly efficient photoluminescent CDs without any further treatment are monodisperse, photostable and of low toxicity, and show excellent luminescence properties.

Fluorescence imaging enabled biodegradable photostable polymeric micelles.

Amphiphilic biodegradable photoluminescent polymers (ABPLPs) composed of a biodegradable fluorescent polymer and methoxy poly (ethyleneglycol) demonstrate intrinsic bright, tunable, and stable fluorescence emission. ABPLP micelles elicit minor cellular toxicity and can be used for cell and tissue imaging both in vitro and in vivo.

The effect of graphite sources on preparation of Photoluminescent graphene nano-sheets for biomedical imaging

Objective(s): Graphene as two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted wide attention in different fields such as biomedical imaging. Ultra-small graphene nano-sheets (UGNSs) have been designated as low dimensional graphene sheets with lateral dimensions less than few nanometres (≤ 500 nm) in one, two or few layers. Several studies have proven that the process of acidic exfoliation and oxidati...

In vivo Effects of CdSe Injection on Embryonic Development of Reproductive System

The use of quantum dots (QDots) as bright and photostable probes for long-term fluorescence imaging is gaining more interest. Thus far, (pre)clinical use of QDots remains limited, which is primarily caused by the potential toxicity of QDots. Most QDots consist of Cd2+ ions, which are known to cause high levels of toxicity. Therefore, the cytotoxic effects of CdSe quantum dots on embryonic devel...
