Figure 2

Physicochemical properties of PFC/ICG nanoemulsions. (A) Plot of fluorescence intensity versus the ICG concentration in the PFC/ICG nanoemulsions or aqueous free ICG. Influence of temperature (B), visible light exposure (C), and NIR lamp (D) on the ICG degradation in the PFC/ICG nanoemulsions or ICG solution. The fluorescence intensity of each sample was measured using a spectrofluorometer with excitation and emission wavelengths of 760 nm and 820 nm, respectively. (mean ± SD, n = 6). *P < 0.001 compared with the free ICG aqueous.
