“Wax‐Sealed” Theranostic Nanoplatform for Enhanced Afterglow Imaging–Guided Photothermally Triggered Photodynamic Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, 2018
AbstractHerein, persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) and photosensitizer are integrated for cancer theranostics with high specificity and without the need of continuous illumination. Specifically, ZnGa1.996O4:Cr0.004 (PLNPs) and IR780 (photosensitizer) are encapsulated by a temperature‐responsive “wax‐seal” composed of oleic acid and ...
