Conjugated polymer nanoparticles for biomedical in vivo imaging.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conjugated polymer nanoparticles, produced by in situ colloidal Knoevenagel polymerization, show advantageous properties (bright emission, colloidal/chemical stability and mesoscopic size range) that allow the successful in vivo application to real-time sentinel lymph node mapping in a mouse model.

متن کاملConjugated Polymer Nanoparticles for Bioimaging
During the last decade, conjugated polymers have emerged as an interesting class of fluorescence imaging probes since they generally show high fluorescence brightness, high photostability, fast emission rates, non-blinking behavior and low cytotoxicity. The main concern related to most conjugated polymers is their lack of hydrophilicity and thereby poor bio-availability. This can, however, be o...
متن کاملHighly emissive PEG-encapsulated conjugated polymer nanoparticles.
A novel bioimaging probe based on a conjugated polymer, poly(9,9-dihexylfluorene-alt-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole) (PFBD), is demonstrated. Transfer of the hydrophobic polymer into water using a short chain poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) resulted in conjugated polymer nanoparticles (PEG-PFBD) with a fluorescence quantum yield of 46%. The PEG-PFBD nanoparticles possessed several desirable structural and ph...
متن کاملPhotosensitizer-doped conjugated polymer nanoparticles for simultaneous two-photon imaging and two-photon photodynamic therapy in living cells.
Photosensitizer doped conjugated polymer nanoparticles have been prepared by incorporating polyoxyethylene nonylphenylether (CO-520) into the nanoparticles using a re-precipitation method. The conjugated polymer, poly[9,9-dibromohexylfluorene-2,7-ylenethylene-alt-1,4-(2,5-dimethoxy)phenylene] (PFEMO), was used as the host matrix to disperse tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and an energy donor to enha...
