N2 - We have developed a novel singlet oxygen nanoprobe based on 9,10-anthracenedipropionic acid covalently bound to mesoporous silica nanoparticles. The nanoparticle protects the probe from interactions with proteins, which detract from its ability to detect singlet oxygen. In vitro studies show that the nanoprobe is internalized by cells and is distributed throughout the cytoplasm, thus being capable of detecting intracellularly-generated singlet oxygen.
