Résumé
Upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) were successfully dendronized for fluorescence medical imaging applications. The structural and morphological characterizations of resulting core/shell NaYF:Yb,Tm@dendrons nanoparticles were performed by means of X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. In vitro cytotoxicity assays have evidenced their low toxicity. In vivo fluorescence imaging study was performed in mice upon IR excitation, showing promising imaging capacities at low concentrations (0.5mg/mL) and low power (50mW/cm).
