Manipulating pH using near-infrared light assisted by upconverting nanoparticles.
Near-infrared light can be used to manipulate the pH of aqueous solutions by using upconverting nanoparticle-assisted photocleavage of a ruthenium complex photobase. Upconverting nanoparticles and the photobase were also introduced into a pH-responsive hydrogel, in which near-infrared irradiation induced swelling of the hydrogel.
متن کاملPhotoswitching of bis-spiropyran using near-infrared excited upconverting nanoparticles.
Bis-spiropryran molecules were grafted onto the surface of upconverting nanoparticles. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer from the upconverting nanoparticles to the surface bis-spiropyran molecules triggered the transformation of the ring-closed bis-spiropyran to the ring-open bis-merocyanine forms.
متن کاملUltralow-intensity near-infrared light induces drug delivery by upconverting nanoparticles.
Mesoporous silica coated upconverting nanoparticles are loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin and grafted with ruthenium complexes as photoactive molecular valves. Drug release was triggered by 974 nm light with 0.35 W cm(-2). Such low light intensity minimized overheating problems and prevented photodamage to biological samples.
متن کاملNear-infrared photochemistry at interfaces based on upconverting nanoparticles.
Near-infrared (NIR) light is better suited than ultraviolet (UV) light for biomedical applications because it penetrates deeper into tissue and causes less photodamage to biological systems. The use of NIR light to control biointerfaces has attracted increasing interest. Here, we review NIR photoreactions at interfaces based on upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs). UCNPs can convert NIR light to ...
متن کاملMultiplexed near-infrared in vivo imaging complementarily using quantum dots and upconverting NaYF4:Yb3+,Tm3+ nanoparticles.
A new multiplexed NIR in vivo imaging is showcased by using quantum dots and NaYF(4):Yb(3+),Tm(3+) nanoparticles. The 'temporal' multiplexing is demonstrated by alternating the excitation wavelengths and unmixing the emissions of different probes. Multiplexed cellular imaging and the cellular trafficking in animal models are shown.
