Effect of different silica coatings on the toxicity of upconversion nanoparticles on RAW 264.7 macrophage cells

Effect of different silica coatings on the toxicity of upconversion nanoparticles on RAW 264.7 macrophage cells

Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), consisting of NaYF4 doped with 18% Yb and 2% Er, were coated with microporous silica shells with thickness values of 7 ± 2 and 21 ± 3 nm. Subsequently, the negatively charged particles were functionalized with N-(6-aminohexyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AHAPS)...
