Serum-stable glyco-nanoparticles with controlled shape were easily obtained and exhibit shape-dependent cell uptake behaviors as well as enhanced activity toward specific lectins.

Gold nanoparticles with cationic surface modification can enhance X-ray radiation therapy by enhancing cellular uptake.

Tetrazine-functionalised boron-rich carbon dots show fast clearance and enhanced tumour accumulation under pre-targeting conditions, as demonstrated using positron emission tomography.

Ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assays have been widely applied in biosensing because of eliminated outside interferences and improved reliability in detection.

The use ofd- orl-amino acids allows for a high or low supramolecular order and stability to design self-assembled peptide hydrogels.

Novel fluorescent organic nanoparticles based on self-polymerization of dopamine and polyethyleneimine were prepared and utilized for biological imaging applications.
