Synopsis

Upconversion Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications provides a comprehensive overview of the chemistry, properties, characterization, and emerging applications of lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), focusing on upconversion mechanisms, fluorescent properties, and biomedical applications. The emerging applications of UCNPs include cancer diagnostics and therapy, biosensing and bioassays, bioimaging, drug and gene delivery, cellular optogenetics, and the detection of small biomolecules and ions. The biocompatibility, biodegradability, bio-distribution, toxicity and regulatory considerations of upconversion are fully considered.

This book offers a unique reference resource for researchers, bringing together a global authorship to cover the fundamentals, state-of-the-art, current challenges, and future perspectives of upconversion nanoparticles.

À propos des auteurs

Dr Kalim Deshmukh is a senior researcher at the New Technologies-Research Centre, University of West Bohemia, Pilsen, Czech Republic. He has over 20 years of research experience working with a wide variety of nanomaterials and polymeric materials, especially polymer blends, nanocomposites, and nanohybrids for various applications. His research interest is mainly focused on the synthesis, characterization, and property investigations of novel polymer nanocomposites reinforced with different nanofillers, including various nanomaterials including carbon-based materials such as carbon black, carbon nanotubes, graphene and its derivatives and MXenes for energy storage, energy harvesting, gas sensing, EMI shielding and high-k dielectric applications.

Kevin D. Belfield is the Dean of the College of Science and Liberal Arts, and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Environmental Science at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, New Jersey, USA. He received his B.S. in Chemistry in 1982 from Rochester Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Syracuse University in 1988. After conducting research in polymer stabilization and degradation at Ciba-Geigy, he conducted research in the synthesis and characterization of functionalized polymers at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. A pioneer in two-photon absorbing materials and two-photon photochemistry, Belfield has systematically developed principles for the design of probes for in vivo multiphoton fluorescence imaging, photosensitizers for photodynamic cancer therapy, and reagents for two-photon induced photochemical activation. Belfield is also the Becton Dickinson Endowed Research Professor at NJIT, was elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2013, Fellow of the American Chemical Society in 2019, and Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry in 2022.
