Semiconducting polymer nanoparticles are utilized as a free-radical inert and light-harvesting nanoplatform for in vivo molecular imaging of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). With its RONS-sensitive fluorescence, good biodistribution and passive targeting ability to leaky inflammatory vasculature, this nanoprobe permits detection of RONS in the microenvironment of spontaneous bacterial infection following systemic administration.
