Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence has attracted much attention in biomedical fields because it offers deep tissue penetration and high spatial resolution. Herein, a method is developed for the preparation of NIR fluorescent nanocomposites (NCs) by encapsulating natural chlorophyll (Chl) into the micelles of octylamine-modified poly(acrylic acid) (OPA). Both femtosecond transient absorption spectra and isothermal titration calorimetry thermogram reveal that the micelles of OPA provide a hydrophobi ...[more]
