Zusammenfassung:The combined advantages of bismuth and aluminosilicates lead to a new type of nanosized biolabel. The near‐infrared (NIR)‐emitting silica‐coated bismuth‐doped aluminosilicate nanoparticles are simple to prepare and exhibit a broad excitation band in the first biological window, efficient long‐lived photoluminescence (PL) covering the second window, high photostability, low cytotoxicity, and easy penetration into living tissues. In vivo PL bioimaging and decay are tested in living mice.
