METHODS
We have developed a nuclear and fluorescence labeling strategy for nanocrystalline cellulose (CNC), an emerging biomaterial with versatile chemistry and facile preparation from renewable sources. We modified CNC through 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) activation with radiometal chelators desferrioxamine B and 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid (NOTA), allowing for the labeling with zirconium-89 (t½ = 78.41 h) and copper-64 (t½ = 12.70 h), respectively, for non-invasive positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The far-red fluorescent dye Cy5 was added for ex vivo optical imaging, microscopy and flow cytometry. The multimodal CNC were evaluated in the syngeneic orthotopic 4T1 tumor model of human stage IV breast cancer.
