Kinetically stable sub-50 nm fluorescent block copolymer nanoparticles via photomediated RAFT dispersion polymerization for cellular imaging

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: -PBzA micelles without initiator residues and unimers but with high structural stability turn out to be noncytotoxic, and can be used for the optical imaging of cells. Real-time confocal fluorescence microscopy shows a fast cellular uptake using C2C12 cell lines in minutes, and a preferential localization in the perinuclear region, in particular in the vesicles.
