Lanthanide-based upconversion nanoparticles attach great attention in theranostics due to their unique physicochemical and optical properties. It is innovative platform possessing peculiar properties for luminescent imaging, temperature mapping, sensing, and therapy. In present work we demonstrate advantages of new luminescent agents based on upconversion nanoparticles and hydrophylic biocompatible polymer.
