Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although long-lasting materials have irreplaceable advantages as fluorescent probes, and their application in biological labeling has been extensively studied, but this material also faces an unavoidable problem, that is, the luminous intensity decays with time.
Especially considering the application of fluorescent nano-markers with targeting function, after tracking the markers in the early stage, most of the markers have been targeted and bound to cancer cells, and the observation at this time can be performed by distributed detection Converted to specific organ detection, and the luminous intensity of the long-lasting afterglow material is already very weak at this time, and the imaging effect is poor
Generally speaking, the afterglow time of long-persistence materials is only a few days or a few hours, especially after being made into nano-markers, the time available for effective detection is shorter, while for in vivo imaging, especially cell tracking, it usually takes many days or even a few hours. Weeks, so general long afterglow materials can't meet this demand at all

Abstract

The invention discloses a near-infrared long persistence / down-conversion fluorescence bimodal biological imaging material. The base material is La3Ga5GeO14, Zn3Ga2Ge2O10 or Ca3Ga2Ge3O12, and 0.1-5 mol% of Cr<3+> and 0.1-10 mol% of Nd<3+> are doped in the base material. The invention also discloses a preparation method of the material. The material can emit 700nm near-infrared long persistence under the irradiation of an ultraviolet lamp; and when the afterglow intensity becomes weak, the near-infrared light source can be used as exciting light to detect the near-infrared emitted light of the down-conversion fluorescence to further excite the imaging material injected into the body, thereby implementing biological in-vivo imaging and cell tracing later-period observation.
