Upconversion Nanoparticles as a Contrast Agent for Photoacoustic Imaging in Live Mice. Advanced Materials, 26(32), 5633-5638. | Series/Report no.: | Advanced materials | Abstract: | An inclusion complex of NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ upconversion nanoparticles with α-cyclodextrin in aqueous conditions exhibits luminescence quenching when excited at 980 nm. This non-radiative relaxation leads to an unprecedented photoacoustic signal enhancement. In vivo localization of α-cyclodextrin-covered NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ is demonstrated using photoacoustic tomography in live mice, showing its high capability for photoacoustic imaging. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/105138 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/20503 |
