High-performance and biocompatible contrast agents are the key to accurate diagnosis of various diseases in vivo via CT imaging. Fabrication of pure Bi nanoparticles is the best way to maximize X-ray absorption efficiency due to the ultrahigh X-ray attenuation ability of Bi and 100% content of Bi element. However, high-quality Bi nanoparticles prepared through a facile strategy are still lacking. Herein, we report a simple noninjection method to fabricate uniformly sized pure Bi nanoparticles using only two commercial reagents by simply heating the mixture of raw materials in a short time. The obtained Bi nanoparticles owned highly uniform size, excellent monodispersity, and impressive antioxidant capacity. After being modified with oligosaccharide, the "sweet" Bi nanoprobe with comfortable patient experience and favorable biocompatibility was successfully used in CT visualization of gastrointestinal tract in detail.
高性能且生物相容的对比剂是通过 CT 成像对各种体内疾病进行准确诊断的关键。由于铋的超高 X 射线衰减能力和 100%的铋元素含量,制备纯铋纳米粒子是最大限度提高 X 射线吸收效率的最佳方法。然而,通过简便策略制备高质量的铋纳米粒子仍有待进一步研究。在此,我们报告了一种简单的非注射方法,仅使用两种商业试剂,通过短时间内加热原料混合物,即可制备尺寸均匀的纯铋纳米粒子。所得到的铋纳米粒子具有高度均匀的尺寸、优异的单分散性和令人印象深刻的抗氧化能力。经过寡糖修饰后,具有舒适患者体验和良好生物相容性的“甜”铋纳米探针成功地用于胃肠道的 CT 可视化。
