Abstract

Near-Infrared Afterglow Luminescence In article number 2407753, Indrajit Srivastava and co-workers introduce an innovative method to enhance existing substrates' near-infrared afterglow luminescence brightness by applying a functional protein coating using bovine serum albumin. Its application has been demonstrated in surgical navigation and image-guided cancer surgery, utilizing tumor-mimicking phantoms and ex vivo porcine models. Art by the team of Inmywork Studio.
