Аннотация:
At the forefront of developing fluorescent probes for biological imaging applications are enhancements aimed at increasing their brightness, contrast, and photostability, especially toward demanding applications of single-molecule detection. In comparison with existing probes, nanorubies exhibit unlimited photostability and a long emission lifetime (∼4 ms), which enable continuous imaging at single-particle sensitivity in highly scattering and fluorescent biological specimens. However, their wide application as fluorescence probes has so far been hindered by the absence of facile methods for scaled-up high-volume production and molecularly specific targeting. The present work encompasses the large-scale production of colloidally stable nanoruby particles, the demonstration of their biofunctionality and negligible cytotoxicity, as well as the validation of its use for targeted biomolecular imaging. In addition, optical characteristics of nanorubies are found to be comparable or superior
