2 EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Materials. YbCl 3 6H 2 O (99.99%), YCl 3 6H 2 O (99.99%), GdCl 3 6H 2 O (99.9%), LuCl 3 6H 2 O (99.99%), TmCl 3 6H 2 O (99.9%), ErCl 3 6H 2 O (99.9%), HoCl 3 6H 2 O (99.9%), NaOH (98%), NH 4 F (98%), 1-octadecene (90%), oleic acid (90%), citric acid (99.5%) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. The solvents, such as hexane, ethanol and methanol were provided by Aik Moh, Singapore. Iohexol was manufactured by GE healthcare (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. All the chemicals were used without further purification. Synthesis of oleic acid (OA) capped NaYbF 4 :Tm, NaYbF 4 :Er and NaYbF 4 :Ho, NaYF 4 :Yb/Tm (20%/1%), NaYF 4 :Yb/Tm (20%/10%), NaYF 4 :Yb/Er (20%/1%) and NaYF 4 :Yb/Er (20%/50%) UCNPs. A total amount of 0.4 mmol RECl 3 6H 2 O (RE = Yb, Y, Tm, Er, Ho) were added into a three-necked flask containing the mixture of 1-octadecene (7 ml) and oleic acid (3 ml) under vigorous stirring at room temperature (the ratio of RE varied according to the experiment requirements). The resulting mixture was then heated to 150 C for 0.5 h, and then cooled down to room temperature. After that a methanol solution (5 ml) of NH 4 F (1.6 mmol) and NaOH (1 mmol) was added into the flask. The temperature was then increased to 160 C in order to remove the methanol from the mixture. Once the methanol was evaporated completely, the above mixture was heated to 310 C for 1 h under an argon environment. Then the reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature. The as-prepared nanoparticles were collected and precipitated by the addition of ethanol, followed by centrifugation, then washed with water and ethanol for several times, and finally dispersed in hexane. Solvothermal synthesis of OA capped NaREF 4 :Yb 20%/Tm (1%, 10%), NaREF 4 :Yb 20%/Er (1%, 25%, 10%), NaR- EF 4 :Yb 20%/Ho (1%, 50%) microrods. Typically, 1.5 ml aqueous solution containing 0.3 g NaOH was mixed with 5 ml of ethanol and 5 ml of OA under stirring. Subsequently, 2 ml of RECl 3 (0.2 mol/l, RE= Yb, Y, Gd, Lu, Tm, Er and Ho) and 1 ml of NH 4 F (2 mol/l). Then the solution was transferred into a 20 ml of Teflon-lined autoclave and heated at 200 C for 7 h. The obtained microrods were collected by centrifugation, washed with water and ethanol several times, and finally dispersed in hexane. Synthesis of water-soluble NaYbF 4 :Tm (10%) UCNPs modified by citric acid. The water-soluble NaYbF 4 :Tm (10%) UCNPs were prepared through a ligand exchange route. 10 mg OA capped NaYbF 4 :Tm (10%) UCNPs were mixed with the aqueous solution of citric acid (30 mg/ml), whose ph value was adjusted to 4. Under vigorous stirring for 10 h, the citric acid functionalized NaYbF 4 :Tm (10%) UCNPs were obtained. The as-prepared products were washed with water three times. Characterization. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images were obtained by using a JEOL-1400 microscope operating at 100 kv. High-resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) measurements were carried out on a JEOL-2010 at 300 kv. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was conducted on a D8 Advance Bruker powder X-ray diffractometer with Cu Kα radiation (λ = Å) from 10 to 70 at a step of 0.02 /s. To acquire the UC emission spectra, the nanoparticles were dispersed in hexane in a standard quartz cuvette at room temperature, and then were recorded by a Fluoromax-4, Horiba Jobin Yvon Spectrofluorometer. The 980 nm excitation light source was a diode laser coupled to a 100 µm (core) optical fiber. For the UC fluorescence lifetime measurements, the chopper wheel was replaced by a homemade one and the repetition rate of the mechanical chopper was maintained at 500 Hz to generate pulses with pulse width of 0.15 ms. The detector output was stored on a digital phosphor oscilloscope (Tektronix DPO 7254) and averaged over 500 periods to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. The fluorescence lifetime curves conform to an exponential fit with reconvolution: ( )= ( ) ( )/ (1) Where A is the amplitude of the component at time zero, τ is the corresponding lifetime, and IRF is the instrument response function. CT phantom images were collected from an Inveon CT system (Siemens Inc., Washington DC) using following parameters: pixel resolution µm; 80 KVp, 60 µa; field of view mm x mm; rotation steps 220, binning 4, exposure time 470 ms/rotation. 2
3 Cytotoxicity assessment of citric acid modified NaYbF 4 :Tm (10%) UCNPs. SiHa cells were maintained in Dulbecco s modified Eagle s medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), penicillin (100 unit/ml), and streptomycin (100 mg/ml). Cells were cultured at 37 C with 5% CO 2 and saturated humidity. Cytotoxicity was assessed using PrestoBlue (Life Technologies, Singapore) assays. Briefly, cells were plated in 96-well plates with a cell density of 10 4 cells per well and allowed to grow into full confluence. And then the medium was replaced with serum-free medium containing UCNPs of different concentrations and the cells were incubated for 8 h, 16 h or 24 h, separately. At each time point, the culture medium was replaced with 0.1 ml of the PrestoBlue solution (10% diluted with a culture medium without FBS). After 30 min incubation, fluorescence analysis was carried out with a SpectraMax M2 microplate reader (Molecular Devices, USA), using an excitation wavelength of 560 nm and an emission wavelength of 595 nm. Cell numbers were calculated using a standard curve correlating known cell numbers with fluorescent values. The cytotoxicity was expressed as the percentage of cell viability compared to that of untreated control cells. In vitro confocal UC fluorescence imaging. 10 µg/ml citric acid modified NaYbF 4 :Tm (10%) UCNPs were incubated with SiHa cells (10 6 /well) for 20 h at 37 C under 5% CO 2. After washed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) for three times, the UC fluorescence imaging was performed on a modified Nikon A1R-si scanning unit equipped with an external 980 nm laser. The UC fluorescence signals were detected in the nm channel. 3
