Abstract

Photosensitive Nanoprobes In article number 2400390, Roshan W. Gunasekara, Sathish Ramakrishnan, and co-workers develop photosensitive lipid nanoprobes to isolate high-purity native extracellular vesicles while maintaining their nativity and functionality. Utilizing hydrophobic interactions and photochemistry, these probes separate vesicles into size-specific subpopulations. This unique property aids in understanding vesicle biogenesis, as size variability may indicate diverse cellular origins and functions, and facilitates the engineering of uniform vesicle populations.
