Persistent phosphors, which remain luminescent after excitation ceases, have brought about a new level of sensitivity for luminescence analysis.
A functional dual-modal nanoprobe was prepared via a hydrothermal and biomineralization approach for targeted near-infrared persistent luminescence and magnetic resonance imaging.
Construction of persistent luminescence nanophosphor-copper sulfide hybrid FRET nanoprobes for background-free bioimaging-guided investigation of food-borne aflatoxin in vivo.
A modified solvothermal liquid–solid-solution method is proposed to synthesize rechargeable and LED-activated ZnGa2O4 : Cr3+ near-infrared persistent luminescence nanoprobes for background-free biodetection.
Infection by pathogens has always been a major threat to human health, a persistent luminescence nanocarriers has been explored and designed for bioimaging-guided in vivo drug delivery to the gut to kill pathogens.
