Near-infrared-excited upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have shown great potential in analytical applications such as environment, biology, food, and medicine. This review summarizes the recent research results of UCNPs probes in these fields and discusses the design and construction of upconversion optical sensing platforms.
Near-infrared-excited upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have multicolor emissions, a low auto-fluorescence background, a high chemical stability, and a long fluorescence lifetime. The fluorescent probes based on UCNPs have achieved great success in the analysis of different samples. Here, we presented the research results of UCNPs probes utilized in analytical applications including environment, biology, food and medicine in the last five years; we also introduced the design and construction of upconversion optical sensing platforms. Future trends and challenges of the UCNPs used in the analytical field have also been discussed with particular emphasis.
