The complexity of CRISPR machinery is a challenge to its application for nonviral in vivo
therapeutic gene editing. Here, we demonstrate that proteins, regardless of size or charge …

Silicon nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely accepted as an alternative material for typical
quantum dots and commercial organic dyes in light-emitting and bioimaging applications …

The fluorescence imaging of tissue is essential for studying biological events beyond the
cellular level. Two-photon microscopy based on the nonlinear light absorption of fluorescent …

Offering mild, non-invasive and deep cancer therapy modality, radio frequency (RF)
radiation-induced hyperthermia lacks for efficient biodegradable RF sensitizers to selectively …

Metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) affords porous silicon nanostructures control over
size, shape, and porosity in a single step. Simplicity and flexibility are potential advantages …

Silicon-based materials have widespread application as biophysical tools and biomedical
devices. Here we introduce a biocompatible and degradable mesostructured form of silicon …

Photoluminescence (PL) spectra were measured for dodecene-capped Si nanocrystals with
a wide range of average diameters, from 1.8 to 9.1 nm. Nanocrystals larger than 3 nm …

Near infrared (NIR) excited lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) are
emerging as a new type of fluorescent tag for biological applications, which can emit multi …

Most existing bioluminescence imaging methods can only visualize the location of
engineered bacteria in vivo, generally precluding the imaging of natural bacteria. Herein, we …

The research on porous silicon (PSi) materials for biomedical applications has expanded
greatly since the early studies of Leigh Canham more than 25 years ago. Currently, PSi …
