Porphysome nanovesicles generated by porphyrin bilayers for use as multimodal biophotonic contrast agents.
Optically active nanomaterials promise to advance a range of biophotonic techniques through nanoscale optical effects and integration of multiple imaging and therapeutic modalities. Here, we report the development of porphysomes; nanovesicles formed from self-assembled porphyrin bilayers that generated large, tunable extinction coefficients, structure-dependent fluorescence self-quenching and u...
متن کاملA Self-Assembled Albumin-Based Nanoprobe for In Vivo Ratiometric Photoacoustic pH Imaging.
A photoacoustic nanoprobe is self-assembled from human serum albumin and two types of dye molecules, one is inert to pH and the other is pH sensitive. This probe and the quantitative ratiometric photoacoustic pH imaging method are shown to have high safety, be easy-to-operate, and have depth-independent accuracy for real-time in vivo pH imaging of entire tumors. These features make them promisi...
متن کاملStable J-aggregation enabled dual photoacoustic and fluorescence nanoparticles for intraoperative cancer imaging.
J-aggregates display nanoscale optical properties which enable their use in fluorescence and photoacoustic imaging applications. However, control over their optical properties in an in vivo setting is hampered by the conformational lability of the J-aggregate structure in complex biological environments. J-aggregating nanoparticles (JNP) formed by self-assembly of bacteriopheophorbide-lipid (Bc...
متن کاملB-Mode Photoacoustic Imaging using Linear Array: Numerical Study for Forward-Backward Minimum Variance Beamformer Combined with Delay-Multiply-and-Sum
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a promising medical imaging modality which provides the resolution of Ultrasound (US) and the contrast of Optical imaging modalities. One of the most important challenges in PAI is image formation, especially in the case that a linear-array US transducer is used for data acquisition. This is due to the fact that in the linear-array scenario, there is only 60 degre...
متن کاملNoninvasive photoacoustic angiography of animal brains in vivo with near-infrared light and an optical contrast agent.
Optical contrast agents have been widely applied to enhance the sensitivity and specificity of optical imaging with near-infrared (NIR) light. However, because of the overwhelming scattering of light in biological tissues, the spatial resolution of traditional optical imaging degrades drastically as the imaging depth increases. Here, for the first time to our knowledge, we present noninvasive p...
