Dye-doped silica nanoparticles: synthesis, surface chemistry and bioapplications

Abstract Background Fluorescent silica nanoparticles have been extensively utilised in a broad range of biological applications and are facilitated by their predictable, well-understood, flexible chemistry and apparent biocompatibility. The ability to couple various siloxane precursors with fluoresc...
