A new type of bimodal contrast agent was made that is based on the self-quenching of indocyanine green (ICG) encapsulated in a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer shell. The increasing of a local ICG concentration that is necessary for the obtaining of self-quenching effect was achieved by freezing-induced loading and layer-by-layer assembly. As a result, an efficient photoacoustic(optoacoustic)/fluorescent contrast agent based on composite indocyanine green/polymer particles was successfully prepared and was characterized by fluorescence and photoacoustic(optoacoustic) tomography . This type of contrast agent holds good promise for clinical application owing to its high efficiency and biosafety.
制备了一种新型的双峰造影剂,其基于包裹在生物相容性和可生物降解聚合物壳中的吲哚菁绿(ICG)的自猝灭。通过冷冻诱导负载和层层组装实现了获得自猝灭效应所需的局部ICG浓度的增加。结果,成功制备了基于复合吲哚菁绿/聚合物颗粒的高效光声/荧光造影剂,并通过荧光和光声断层扫描对其进行了表征。由于其高效率和生物安全性,这种类型的造影剂在临床应用中具有良好的前景。
