The application of ZnO luminescent nanoparticles in labeling mice

Photoluminescent ZnO@polymer core–shell nanoparticles were used in mouse imaging through intradermal injections and intravenous injections, and the results proved that such ZnO fluorescence probes are nontoxic to live mice and have great potential in in vivo applications.
