Bacteriochlorins with phenaleno or benzo annulation absorb at 913 or 1033 nm and exhibit excited-state lifetimes of 150 or 7 ps, suggesting applications in photoacoustic imaging.

A single-component multi-modal theranostic platform taking advantage of multiple imaging and therapy techniques may offer improved diagnostic monitoring capabilities and therapeutic efficacies. In this study, through structural tuning, a novel theranostic agent TSSAM with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, bright second near-infrared (NIR-II) emission, high reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation capability and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (40.1%) was developed. TSSAM makes the best use of its excited state energy and keeps perfect equilibrium between radiative and non-radiative transition to satisfy the needs of both NIR-II fluorescence imaging (FLI)/photoacoustic imaging (PAI)/photothermal imaging (PTI) trimodal imaging and photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT) synergistic therapy. Further experiments validated the superior imaging quality and tumoricidal activity of TSSAM, in which tumor tissues were completely eradicated and tumor metastasis was effectively inhibited by merely single injection and one-time laser irradiation. This research has therefore presented a smart multifunctional material holding great promise in both basic research and clinical practice.

With the asymmetric Schiff-base zinc complex ZnL (H2L = N-(5-bromo-3-methoxysalicylidene)-N'-(5-(4-cyanophenyl)-3-methoxysalicylidene) phenylene-1,2-diamine) as the precursor, a series of heterobinuclear Zn-Ln complexes [ZnLnL(NO3)3(CH3CN)] (Ln = Nd, 1; Ln = Yb, 2; Ln = Er, 3; Ln = Gd, 4) are synthesized by the further reaction with Ln (NO3)3·6H2O, and characterized by FT-IR, FAB-MS and elementary analysis. Photophysical studies of these complexes show that the strong and characteristic NIR luminescence of Nd3+, Yb3+and Er3+ with emissive lifetimes in the microsecond range has been sensitized from the excited state of the asymmetric Schiff-base ligand due to effective intramolecular energy transfer.

In the present report we studied spectral characteristics of the near-infrared combination and overtone bands of CH vibrations of a CH sequence. The near-infrared bands of the CH in CHX3 (X, halogen), which were interpreted in terms of the CH stretching and CH deformation fundamentals without any ambiguity, typically showed how the frequency and intensity of a combination or an overtone depend on the vibrational excited state. In the CH–C–CH of CHX2CX2CHX2, the vibrations of one CH are isolated from those of the other CH, and the combination and overtone bands were similarly interpreted as those of the CH, although each of the combination bands was split into two because of non-degeneracy of the CH deformation. In the CH–CH of CHX2CHX2, the CH deformations only have coupled modes. The first combination showed four narrowly separate bands, which were reasonably interpreted on the basis of the CH stretching and the coupled CH deformation modes. We demonstrated that the first combination of coupled modes as well as the combination of up to, at least, the third order of isolated modes have the nature of the characteristic bands.

Abstract Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is often performed simultaneously with ultrasound imaging and can provide functional and cellular information regarding the tissues in the anatomical markers of the imaging. This paper describes in detail the basic principles of photoacoustic/ultrasound (PA/US) imaging and its application in recent years. It includes near-infrared-region PA, photothermal, photodynamic, and multimode imaging techniques. Particular attention is given to the relationship between PAI and ultrasonic imaging; the latest high-frequency PA/US imaging of small animals, which involves not only B-mode, but also color Doppler mode, power Doppler mode, and nonlinear imaging mode; the ultrasonic model combined with PAI, including the formation of multimodal imaging; the preclinical imaging methods; and the most effective detection methods for clinical research for the future.
