| Bioactivity | ICG-azide, a near infrared (NIR) fluorescent dye, is a copper (I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reagent. ICG-azide can be readily incorporated into dye-stabilized nanoemulsions and facilitate the attachment of targeting ligands via click-chemistry in a simple, scalable, and reproducible reaction[1]. |
