Water-soluble conjugated polymers (WS-CPs) have found widespread use in
bioapplications ranging from in vitro optical sensing to in vivo phototherapy. Modification of …

A survey of the state-of-the-art in the development of synthetic methods to incorporate p-
block elements into polymers is given. The incorporation of main group elements (groups 13 …

We report a miniaturized fiber inline Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI), with an open micro-
notch cavity fabricated by one-step fs laser micromachining, for highly sensitive refractive …

Difluoro-4-bora-3a, 4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) as the robust dyes have been widely
applied in biomedical areas, especially for tumor imaging and phototherapy. Most of the …

Four near-infrared fluorescent probes (A, B, C and D) have been synthesized, characterized,
and evaluated for detection of lysosomal pH inside living cells. The fluorescent probes …

Mapping surface hydrophobic interactions in proteins is key to understanding molecular
recognition, biological functions and is central to many protein misfolding diseases. Herein …

Near infrared (NIR) light allows deep tissue penetration and high spatial resolution due to
the reduced scattering of long-wavelength photons. NIR light-activatable polymer …

The design, synthesis, and characterization of BODIPY (4, 4′-difluoro-4-bora-3a, 4a-diaza-
s-indacene)-based small molecules has undergone tremendous progress in the past two …

Early and rapid diagnosis of tumors is essential for clinical treatment or management. In
contrast to conventional means, bioimaging has the potential to accurately locate and …

Three acidotropic, near-infrared fluorescent probes based on piperazine-modified BODIPY
dyes (A, B and C) have been developed for the sensitive and selective detection of …
