“…LNPs display a number of features that make them interesting for in vivo imaging, such as tunable pharmacokinetics (blood half-life and clearance mode), resistance to photobleaching and large surface to volume ratios (so that multiple targeting groups and therapeutic agents can be conjugated to them). 15,16 A great variety of LNPs have been applied in biomedical research, not only for imaging but also for other purposes including drug delivery and in vitro and in vivo photothermal therapies. 17 Quantum dots (QDs), 18,19 gold NPs, 20 carbonbased NPs (C-NPs), 21,22 organic NPs, 23 and rare earth-doped nanocrystals (RENPs) 24 are among the nanoparticle-based fluorescent probes that have been successfully used in biomedicine.…”

“…Their carbonaceous nature, resonance Raman scattering, photoluminescence, strong near-infrared optical absorption, notable photothermal therapy properties, close structural resemblance with biomolecules and the possibility of tethering various functional groups on the surface of CNTs promote their application for multimodal therapy, as carrier for therapeutics, in diagnosis, for prosthesis delivery, and as a matrix for fabricating tissue regeneration scaffolds [2 -7]. Metal nanoparticles (NPs) or quantum dot-conjugated CNTs have been used as labelling, imaging and tracking agents [2,8,9]. Folic acid and nucleic acid aptamers are examples of targeting moieties studied for cancer therapy that can bind specifically to target cells [10,11].…”

“…20 Nanoparticles can be coated with multiple ligands or probes and the consequent multivalent binding to target molecules could result in dramatically increased uptake and retention of the particles. Nanoparticles can be coated with a large number of such signal-generating molecules, thereby increasing the intensity of the imaging signal.…”
