Near-Infrared Fluorescence Enhanced (NIR-FE) Molecular Imaging of Live Cells on Gold Substrates
Guosong Hong, Scott M. Tabakman, Kevin Welsher +5
Low quantum yields of near infrared (NIR) fluorophores have limited their capabilities as imaging probes in a transparent, low background imaging window. Here for the first time we…
High Performance In Vivo Near-IR (>1 μm) Imaging and Photothermal Cancer Therapy with Carbon Nanotubes
Joshua T. Robinson, Kevin Welsher, Scott M. Tabakman +4
Short single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) functionalized by PEGylated phospholipids are biologically non-toxic and long-circulating nanomaterials with intrinsic near infrared ph…
Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence of Carbon Nanotubes
Guosong Hong, Scott M. Tabakman, Kevin Welsher +3
The photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is relatively low, with various quenching effects by metallic species reported in the literature.…
Multiplexed five-color molecular imaging of cancer cells and tumor tissues with carbon nanotube Raman tags in the near-infrared
Zhuang Liu, Scott Tabakman, Sarah Sherlock +5
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with five different C13/C12 isotope compositions and well-separated Raman peaks have been synthesized and conjugated to five targeting ligand…
Preparation of Carbon Nanotube Bioconjugates for Biomedical Applications
Zhuang Liu, Scott Tabakman, Zhuo Chen +1
Biomedical applications of carbon nanotubes have attracted much attention in recent years. Here, we summarize our previously developed protocols for functionalization and bioconjug…
Phospholipid-Dextran with a Single Coupling Point: a Useful Amphiphile for Functionalization of Nanomaterials
Andrew P. Goodwin, Scott M. Tabakman, Kevin Welsher +3
Nanomaterials hold much promise for biological applications, but they require appropriate functionalization to provide biocompatibility in biological environments. For non-covalent…
