Abstract
An amphiphilic water-soluble ytterbium complex which is photo-selective, functional and Golgi apparatus specific has been designed as a responsive dual probe capable of sensitizing emission within the biological window (660 and 750 nm), generating the singlet oxygen (ΦΔ= 0.45) and triggering local cell damage only upon exposure to visible and near-infrared laser excitation.
