Abstract: Intracellular thermometry with favorable biocompatibility and precision is essential for insight into the temperature-related cellular events. Here, liquid-core nanocapsules as ratiometric fluorescent thermometers (LCN-RFTs) are prepared by encapsulating thermosensitive organic fluorophores (N, N'-di(2-ethylhexyl)-3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic diimide,… read more here.
