Table 1.
NC: Nanocapsules.
| Tube (Target: τon) | Cuvette (Background: τoff) | τon/τoff (T/B) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Case 1 |
ADP(OH)2-Bottom NC (τon = 1.02 ns) |
ADP(OH)2-Bottom NC (τoff = 0.97 ns) |
1.05 (=1.02/0.97) |
| Case 2 |
ADP(OH)2-Bottom NC (τon = 1.02 ns) |
ZnttbPc NC (τoff = 0.17 ns) |
6.00 (=1.02/0.17) |
| Case 3 |
ZnttbPc NC (τon = 2.68 ns) |
ZnttbPc NC (τoff = 0.17 ns) |
15.76 (=2.68/0.17) |
In Case 1, both the tube and the cuvette were filled with ADP(OH)2-Bottom encapsulated 5%-F98 pluronic nanocapsules. In Case 2, the tube was filled with ADP(OH)2-Bottom encapsulated 5%-F98 pluronic nanocapsules and the cuvette with ZnttbPc encapsulated 5%-F98 pluronic nanocapsules. In Case 3, both the tube and the cuvette were filled with ZnttbPc encapsulated 5%-F98 pluronic nanocapsules. For ADP(OH)2-Bottom based contrast agent: τon = 1.02 ns and τoff = 0.97 ns. For ZnttbPc based contrast agent: τon = 2.68 ns and τoff = 0.17 ns.
