“…56,57 Common organic small molecules include indocyanine green (ICG), indole IR780, IR820, IR825, cypate, porphyrin, and aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens). 58,59 Due to its good water solubility, excellent mitochondrial targeting, and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE), ICG has shown great potential in PTT, PDT, and FLI. In addition, ICG has excellent biosafety and has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for direct clinical imaging diagnosis.…”
