Abstract

Multifunctional silica nanocapsules containing magnetic nanoparticles and fluorescent quantum dots with a single surface hole fabricated by a single-step emulsion-mediated process are described. The silica nanocapsules (see images) are easily internalized by phagocytic dendritic cells and show a high potential as bimodal imaging contrast agents (for fluorescence and magnetic resonance imaging) in vivo as well as in vitro.
