What are the emission wavelengths and particle size of the Oil-dispersible core-shell upconverting nanoparticles (Yellowgreenlight)?
These upconverting nanoparticles (model AF-UCNGY20MG) emit at 545 nm and 660 nm, with a particle size of approximately 30 nm. They are nanospheres with a core-shell composition of NaYReF4(core)@NaYF4(shell), as specified in the product description.
In which solvent are these upconverting nanoparticles supplied, and what does that indicate about their compatibility with different experimental systems?
The product is supplied in cyclohexane, confirming its oil-dispersible nature. This indicates compatibility with nonpolar organic media and hydrophobic environments, as stated in the specifications under 'Solvent: cyclohexane'.
What configuration details should be confirmed before ordering to ensure proper handling and storage?
The product page recommends confirming the concentration, solvent, emission color, and package size before quotation. Additionally, researchers should match the powder or dispersion format to the intended preparation workflow and storage practice, as noted in the Selection and Use Notes.
This oil-dispersible core-shell upconverting nanoparticle (Yellowgreenlight, 20 mg) provides a ~30 nm nanosphere with dual emission at 545/660 nm under near-infrared excitation, enabling deep-tissue imaging with minimal autofluorescence, but requires cyclohexane dispersion and careful handling to maintain colloidal stability and prevent aggregation.
Positive
- Dual emission for ratiometric sensing: The 545/660 nm emission pair enables internal reference ratiometric measurements, improving accuracy in quantitative bioimaging and reducing signal variability from excitation fluctuations.
- Core-shell architecture enhances brightness: The NaYReF4(core)@NaYF4 shell structure passivates surface defects and suppresses non-radiative decay, resulting in higher upconversion luminescence efficiency compared to bare core nanoparticles.
Trade-offs
- Oil-dispersible limits aqueous compatibility: Supplied in cyclohexane, these nanoparticles require phase transfer or surface modification for aqueous biological assays, adding preparation steps and potential yield loss.
- Small package size for bulk workflows: The 20 mg package is suited for research-scale screening but may require multiple units for extended in vivo studies or high-throughput screening, increasing procurement overhead.
