Synthesis of oxygen-sensing nanoparticles. Oxygen-sensitive phosphorescent dye and polymer (ethyl cellulose or polystyrene) are dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF). This solution is then mixed with the surfactant solution in deionized water (containing the micelles) during sonication. Nanoparticles were obtained after removal of solvent by evaporation.
