Title
Fluorescent core-shell Silica nanoparticles
Technique
Digital camera under Uv-Light
Description
As in the animal kingdom boasts many impressive forms, evolution has shown the expression of nanotechnology in animals for (climb, slither, camouflage, flirt), for instance, by using compounds such as pigments, which creates colors by absorbing some wavelengths of light and reflecting the rest. Learning from our ancients companions, I used biocompatible silica partciles core-doped with fluorophores such as (TRICT,FITC,RBITC), in order to be traceable in toxicological sutdies. Nanoparticles size can be tuned from 20-300 nm.
