Fluorescent quantum dots (e.g., CdSe-ZnS) and magnetic nanoparticles (e.g., Fe(2)O(3) or Fe(3)O(4)) are two important candidate systems that have been emerging as potential probes for bioimaging applications. This review focuses on the development of silica-coated inorganic probes (optical and magnetic) that are originated mainly from the author's laboratory for bioimaging applications. The recent developments in the synthesis of rare earth nanoparticles for multimodality imaging are also delineated.
荧光量子点(例如 CdSe-ZnS)和磁性纳米粒子(例如 Fe(2)O(3)或 Fe(3)O(4))是两种重要的候选系统,它们已作为潜在的生物成像应用探针而出现。本综述主要集中于源自作者实验室的用于生物成像应用的硅涂层无机探针(光学和磁性)的开发。还描述了用于多模式成像的稀土纳米粒子的合成的最新进展。
