Abstract:
This concept article summarizes our recent findings regarding photopolymerized micelles obtained from the self-assembly of diacetylene-containing amphiphiles. Their synthesis and characterization are presented as well as some biomedical applications, such as tumor imaging and drug delivery. Finally, ongoing studies and future challenges are briefly discussed.
