Such a functionalized material can simultaneously achieve the temperature-sensing and optical heating under a single beam of near-infrared (NIR) light. Under 808 nm laser excitation, real-time feedback of temperature by monitoring thermo-responsive fluorescence emission ratio (I616/I590) and fluorescence lifetime of Eu(Ⅲ) ions were realized. Meantime, Fe/TA served as the photothermal agent and antibacterial agent to implement photothermal therapy (PTT) and antibacteria simultaneously. The functions of the nanoprobe were proved with ex vivo experiments, and the antibacterial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria of the probe was also elaborately evaluated. Our work paves a new avenue for engineering new cancer treatment probe which can achieve real-time temperature sensing feedback during PTT and antibacterial process.

Analytical Chemistry

INTRODUCTION Conventional strategies including surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy have been widely used in cancer clinic therapy which may result in tumor metastases and severe toxic side effects to the patients. Cancer therapy based on nanoparticles1-3 (NPs) has attracted many researchers’ interests due to the high payload incorporation and multimodal loading capability.4 As a new treatment for cancer cells and bacterial infection, photothermal therapy (PTT)1,5 can cause thermal ablation of tumor cells and the death of bacterial with photo-absorbing agents to generate heat from light activation. It has been recognized as a safe method to reduce the normal tissue damage and system side effects. Also it is found that inflammation increases the potential of cancer cell recurrence and metastasis, and adding bacteriostatic materials during PTT to effectively inhibit cancer cell recurrence and metastasis.6 Iron(Ⅲ)/tannic acid assemblies (Fe/TA) is a newly discovered photothermal reagent with excellently photothermal conversion capability to efficiently ablate tumor cells.7-8 And tannic acid was reported to have the ability to inactivate proteins.9-10 Therefore, Fe/TA can synergistically enhance the antibacterial effect by utilizing the bacteriostatic effect and photothermal inactivation effects. The therapeutic effect of PTT depends largely on the amount of heat produced by photothermal conversion agent. Insufficient heating or intracellular hyperthermia can result in ineffective treatment of cancer cells or collateral damages to surrounding tissue during the PTT. Thus, the precise sensing of temperature is an important factor to promote the efficacy of PTT. However, the current method to monitor the 3

temperature during PTT is to use a thermographic imaging method which is generally reflected by the temperature of the surface of the objects, different from the temperature of the injection site, thus resulting in poor therapeutic effects.11 Consequently, developing a new method of real-time monitor intracellular temperature during the process of PTT deserves much research. Nanothermometer based on fluorescence intensity ratio or fluorescence lifetime is a new detection method to feedback temperature.12-13 This method could accurately feedback temperature under sub-tissue to achieve accurately cancer treatment during the process of PTT. Li’s group had proved this possibility by using a carbon-coated core-shell up-conversion nanocomposite with a fluorescent temperature sensitive core and a photothermal carbon shell.14 In recent reports, the realization of temperature sensing and photothermal treatment under a single beam of light had been reported,15 which was mainly achieved by using up-conversion NPs. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is assembled with metal ions/metal clusters and organic bridging ligands.16 The unlimited selection of metal ions and ligands allows the crystal structures and fluorescent properties of MOFs to be controlled and tuned relatively easily. In addition, post-synthetic modification of the MOFs including derivatization of the linkers or introduction of metals by way of complexation or ion swap allows further modulation of luminescence.17 Because of the inherent narrow-band luminescence, long lifetime and large Stokes shift, lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs) possessing advantages of MOFs and lanthanide ions have aroused widespread research interests.18 Thus, contact 4

thermometers based on Ln-MOFs can provide a bright future for the development of various types of temperature sensors. In the past few years, the use of Ln-MOFs to achieve temperature sensing has already been adopted for developing molecular thermometer.19-20 However, so far, most of the Ln-MOFs based thermometers reported previously were excited by ultraviolet or visible light (λex < 500 nm). Self-fluorescence and tissue damage caused by excitation light limits its application in biological neighborhoods.21 In general, in the biological windows of 800-1800 nm, light absorption and scattered by tissues is minimal and generally gets a high penetration depth exceeding 1 cm,22 further reducing

non-selectivity and

light-induced damage to the normal tissue. Two-photon-absorption MOFs (TPA-MOFs) is a potential method that allows deep tissue to penetrate (light in the 700-1000 nm range) by simultaneously stimulating two low-energy near-infrared (NIR) photons.23-24 Moreover, up to now, no data has been reported that TPA-MOFs based thermometers can achieve both temperature sensing and photothermal therapy under NIR excitation using single beam of light. Therefore, it is urgent to design an intelligent Ln-MOFs based all-in-one thermometer−heater platforms capable of remote thermometry and efficient heating under single-beam NIR light excitation. In

interaction. HTHA was introduced to sensitize Eu3+, which can absorb 808 nm NIR light excitation to reduce light-induced damage to tissues and increase the depth of light penetrating tissue. Particularly, the long emission lifetime and ultra-sensitive transition of the Eu3+ endowed THA@Eu-NMOF probe the ability for sensing temperature. Photothermal agent Fe/TA7-8 could be subsequently deposited on the surface of THA@Eu-NMOF by adjusting the pH of the solution, which can generate photothermal effect by 808 nm laser irradiation. Tannic acid (TA) is a resin polyphenol consisting of central glucose linked to five diacetyl ester groups. It can be used as a multidentate ligand to rapidly coordinate with metal ions into a three-dimensional network within minutes,25 and also had the ability to precipitate proteins affecting the life activities of bacteria.9-10 Because of the inherent antibacterial activity of TA and the photothermal conversion capability of Fe/TA, it gave the nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA the ability for photothermal ablation of cancer cells and photothermal synergy enhanced bacteriostatic effect. Therefore, the all-in-one THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe can be achieved, possessing temperature sensing and photothermal therapy under single-beam NIR light excitation, which also can synergy enhance bacteriostatic effect. This work offers a new strategy for engineering all-in-one multifunctional nanoprobes in biological and other applications. 6

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Preparation and characterization of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe According to the previously reported literature,26 the white powder-like Eu-NMOF was obtained. As shown in Figures 1a and 1b, the synthesized Eu-NMOF and THA@Eu-NMOF both displayed spherical morphologies in transmission electron microscope (TEM) figures, and there was no significant change in particle shape after modification with HTHA. After treatment in ethanol with 40 mg/mL TA and 10 mg/mL FeCl3, the achieved THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs displayed a rougher surface with “massif-like” humps (Figure 1c), and the color changed from white to black was observed. This indicated clearly that Fe/TA was deposited on the Eu-NMOF NPs. the energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectrum (Figure 1d) and elemental mapping images (Figure S3) illustrated the existence and even distribution of carbon, oxygen, iron and europium in the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs, consistent

In order to identify the crystal structure and composition of the samples, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) of the materials before and after modification was tested. Figure 1f presented the PXRD pattern of the Eu-NMOF NPs before and after the modification of HTHA and Fe/TA. All the diffraction peaks in the 10

PXRD patterns of Eu-NMOF NPs was consistent with previous reports,25 suggesting that there was no significant change in structure of the Eu-NMOF NPs before and after the modification of HTHA and Fe/TA. Additionally, the surface properties of Eu-NMOF, THA@Eu-NMOF, and THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA were measured by zeta potential measurements. The results demonstrated that the HTHA coordination and Fe/TA loading could affect the zeta potential (Table S1). Due to the loading of HTHA on Eu-NMOF nanoparticles, the zeta potential of THA@Eu-NMOF NPs decreased from ˗2.38 to ˗13.2 mV, and then the zeta potential dropped to ˗20.9 mV after Fe/TA deposition on the surface of THA@Eu-NMOF nanoparticles. These results also illustrated the successful post-synthetic modification of the Eu-NMOF NPs.

THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA. In the FT-IR spectrum (Figure S4), three peaks at 3664−2997, 1714−1598 cm−1 were belong to the absorption peaks of ν(O-H), δ(O−H) and ν(C=O) in trimesic acid,27 respectively. The bands at 1182 and 769 cm−1 was detected in the IR spectrum of THA@Eu-NMOF, attributed to the C−F and −CF3 stretching vibrations of the HTHA ligand, which implied successful modification of HTHA to Eu-NMOF. To further investigate the interaction between ligand HTHA, Fe/TA and Eu3+ ion in Eu-NMOF, we examined XPS of Eu-NMOF, THA@Eu-NMOF and THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA. The C 1s (284.8 eV) photoelectron peak was used to correct the binding energy of all the research elements in the XPS spectrum. Figure 2a showed that C 1s, O 1s, and Eu 3d all existed in three samples before and after modification. The Eu3+ 3d5/2 peak in Eu-NMOF was moved to 1135.15 eV after addition of the HTHA ligand (Figure 2b), inferring the successful coordination of the β-diketone moiety of the HTHA ligand with Eu3+ ions. Owing to the versatile adhesion capability of TA, the obtained TA/Fe complex was tendency to form a homogeneous coating layer on the THA@Eu-NMOF. Therefore, after adding TA/Fe complex, the peak of Eu3+ at 1135.15 eV in THA@Eu-NMOF was moved to 1135.45 eV. In the Fe 2p spectrum (Figure 2c), two peaks located at 725.5 and 711.2 eV were considered to be the peak of Fe 2p1/2 and Fe 2p3/2, respectively. The 12

S5b, the weight loss values of THA@Eu-NMOF and THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA were 53.2 and 64.1%, respectively. A higher weight loss of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA indicated that TA/Fe composite was successfully immobilized onto the surface of the THA@Eu-NMOF NPs. According to the ICP-MS test (Table S2), we noticed that the content of FeIII was 2.19%. According to the results of TGA and ICP-MS, the loading capacity of TA/Fe complex was estimated to be 13.09%.

Two-photon property of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA The excitation light with the wavelength of 700 ~ 1000 nm has a high transmittance to the medium, which can effectively reduce the absorption of excitation light by the medium. In order to analyze the TPA property of HTHA, UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectra of HTHA in ethanol were executed (Figure S6). In UV-vis absorption spectrum, HTHA had a wide ultraviolet absorption peak at 400 nm and a small absorption peak at 325 nm. Under 808 nm excitation the two-photon-excited luminescence (TPL) peak of HTHA was mainly concentrated at 500 nm. In order to have a deep insight of the two-photon feature of THA@Eu-NMOF composite, a TPA cross-sectional area of THA@Eu-NMOF was measured (Rhodamine B was used as a calibration material). Two-photon emission performance of THA@Eu-NMOF was verified by two-photon emission spectroscopy intensities under different excitation wavelengths (Figure 2d). Using different excitation wavelengths, the wavelengths at 760 nm displayed the maximum two-photon excitation intensity for THA@Eu-NMOF. Besides, THA@Eu-NMOF displayed a 14

TPA cross-sectional area of 33.08 GM under 808 nm excitation (the detailed calculation procedure was listed in the Supporting Information). Although it was not the largest two-photon absorption cross section of THA@Eu-NMOF under 808 nm excitation, in order to achieve photothermal therapy and temperature sensing under a single beam of light, we choose 808 nm as the excitation source. The coordination of HTHA not only endowed THA@Eu-NMOF NPs the function of two-photon sensitized Eu3+ emission under 808 nm NIR light excitation, but also ensured higher tissue penetration and avoids tissue burn caused by water (water has maximum absorption at 980 wavelength).

Temperature-dependent absorption and steady-state photoluminescence The infrared thermography obtains an infrared thermal image by receiving the infrared radiation energy of the target, and the thermal image corresponds to the heat distribution field on the surface of the object.28 It causes low spatial resolution due to the inherent imaging principle of thermal imagers. However, even a few degrees of temperature change in a biological system may mean a difference in cell life and death. In order to get more accurate temperature feedback, it need to find a more accurate temperature detection method. In general, the change of temperature affects the fluorescent properties of the material. The reason is that based on the classical Mott-Seitz model,29-30 the fluorescence intensity (I1 or I2) can be expressed by equation 1:

In this equation, ai is the ratio between the non-radiation and radiation probability of the i-deactivated channel, I0 is the beam intensity at T = 0 K, ∆Ei is the activation energy of the i-thermal quenching process, and kB is the Boltzmann constant, T is the absolute temperature. So I2/I1 can be expressed by equation 2: 𝐼1 𝐼2

Where ∆0 = 𝐼01 𝐼02. From the equation of (1) and (2), we conclude that the change in fluorescence intensity is temperature dependent. And the lifetime can be expressed by the following equation 3:31 1

where Wr and Wnr are the radiative and non-radiative probability, respectively, ∆E is the energy gap between the emitting level and the higher excited state, 𝜏0 is the radiative lifetime (T = 0 K), k is a pre-exponential factor, and kB is the Boltzmann constant. Therefore, lifetime is also temperature dependent. The luminescence of Eu3+ in THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe was sensitized by the HTHA, which can be verified by the excitation spectrum collected for

was recorded at different temperature. In order to excavate the potential efficiency as molecular thermometer of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA, the intensity ratio I615/I590 is used as the thermometric parameter. Ratiometric thermometers are not affected by the concentration of the sensor in the medium during temperature measurement and can be self-calibrated measurement of the temperature from the emission spectra.28 The transition of Eu3+ at 5D0-7F2 (616 nm) is particularly ultrasensitive to change in external conditions. The thermal activation of nonradiative-decay pathways can be enhanced as the temperature increases.32 Therefore, the plot (Figure S7b) showed the luminescence intensity at 616 nm gradually decreased when the temperature increases from 20 °C to 60 °C. However, the intensity of 5D0-7F1 of Eu3+ (590 nm) was almost unchanged. The dependence of I615/I590 on temperature was plotted in Figure 3a which revealed a good linear relationship between I615/I590 and temperature within the range of 20 to 60 °C. The linear relationship can be fitted as a function of eqn. (4) with a correlation

And the thermal sensitivity of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA can be calculated using eqn. (5).33 As show in Figure 3b, the maximal sensitivity of the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe is 0.59% at 60 °C.

Analytical Chemistry

The lifetime value was not affected by the probe concentration, size or geometry, and was not affected by light scattering, reflection or intensity fluctuations of the excitation source.34 Thus, we studied the response of lifetime of the nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA to the temperature. Figure 3c showed the influence of temperature on the lifetime of Eu3+ in the nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA. It had been observed that as the temperature increases from 20 °C to 60 °C, the average lifetime of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA drops rapidly. Equation (6) is a function fit of the test results with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.986. τ615 = 788.40 - 1.57T

The sensitivity was calculated in the same way using eqn. (5) except that the fluorescence intensity ratio was replaced with the fluorescence lifetime. Figure 3d displayed the maximum temperature sensitivity is 0.23% at 60 °C (from 20 to 60°C). Compared with the Ln-MOFs-based temperature probes that have been reported (listed in Table 1), the nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA has a more suitable excitation source (ex = 808 nm), which can reduce the damage of the excitation light to the biological tissue and have deeper penetration. Also, another advantage of the synthesized nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA is that the lifetime signals can also be used in the temperature sensing. Therefore, it is more suitable for temperature monitoring in the biological systems which possess the complex biological background interferences.

Photothermal effect of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe in vitro It can be seen from the UV-visible absorption spectrum (Figure S8) that the nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA with strong NIR absorbance had strong potential to be used as a new theranostic nanoplatform for PTT. We next investigated the photothermal properties of the material. THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA suspension was irradiated with an 808 nm NIR laser at a power density of 2 W/cm2. As the concentration of nanoprobe increased, the temperatures of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA solutions increased accordingly (Figure 4a). After 600 seconds of irradiation, the temperature of the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA solutions (600 μg/mL) ascended from 20

Therefore, THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe can be reused during PTT. Next, the photothermal conversion efficiency (η) of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA was calculated as 16.28% from the fitting data obtained in the cooling phase (Figure S10 and the calculation formula of the photothermal conversion effect supporting the information recording listed in the Supporting Information).

Antibacterial activities of the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe Due to the photothermal effect of the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe, photothermal inactivation effects against bacteria was be tested under 808 nm light illumination. Then, to demonstrate 808 nm light-induced photothermal inactivation effects against bacteria, the antibacterial activity of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA was assessed using Enterococcus faecalis (E.

water + sample (Figure 5a). As described in Figure 5b, compared with the blank group, the bacterial strain had a higher survival rate (98%) in water + 808 nm, indicating that lighting was useless when THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs were not added. However, the viability of bacteria in the sterilized water solution containing THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA without 808 nm irradiation decreased to 19.51%. In addition, compared with water + sample, water + sample + 808 nm groups had a higher mortality rate up to 93.43%. This upshot suggested that THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA can enhance the antimicrobial effect by photothermal inactivation effects under 808 nm laser excitation. After irradiation with 808 nm light for 15 min, the sterilized water solution containing THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA produced large amounts of heat, inducing the degeneration of the enzyme and then inhibiting the necessary intracellular response.41 In high temperatures, proteins and lipids on the membrane can be damaged, and some of the small molecules inside the cells such as DNA and RNA leak from the twisted membrane,42 severely interfering with normal cellular function. TA is a water-soluble polyphenol, commonly found in herbs and woody plants, and accepted by the FDA. It is widely used in foods and pharmaceuticals.43-44 According to the reports, TA has a bactericidal effect on a variety of bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coil), Staphylococcus aureus, Helicobacter pylori.10 This property suggested a potential utilization of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe in antibacterial field.

bacteria. The antibacterial activity of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA against E. coli was evaluated by measuring the cell mortality after cultivate of the bacteria with increasing concentrations of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA colloidal solutions. As show in Figure 5c, the bacterial cells were exposed to THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA concentrations in the range of 10−500 μg/mL for 15 minutes. The bacterial cell loss gradually ascended with the increasing concentration of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs. E. coli showed 45.74% mortality rate, at the lowest THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA concentration of 10 μg/mL. Upon increasing the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA concentration from 10 μg/mL to 50 μg/mL, the mortality rate of E. coli was increased from 45.74 to 78.70%. More than 95.87% bacterial viability loss was observed at 100 μg/mL of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs and bacterial inhibition was increased to more than 98% at 300 μg/mL of THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA. Additionally, when the concentration was greater than 300 μg/mL, the concentration increase had no obvious enhancement on the antibacterial activities of E. coil. The above results showed that the THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs could be used as ideal antimicrobial agents and had excellent photothermal inactivation effect against E. Faecalis.

Thermometry and heating in sub-tissues The power density evolution of both sub-tissues and surface temperature were obtained by the spectrophotometer and infrared thermal camera. As shown in Figure 6a, the aqueous solution containing the material (0.1 mL) was squirted into the chicken tissue about 1 cm. Under the illumination of 808 nm for 5 minutes with different power densities, the temperature at the injection site was calculated by the fluorescence spectroscopy, and at the same time the surface temperature was recorded by the thermal imager. The difference between sub-tissue and surface temperature 25

were recorded in Figure 6b. The important conclusion was that both sub-tissues and surface temperatures showed the same increasing trend with the increasing of power density, but their actual values were remarkable different. This result was consistent with the previous reports during PTT.45 When the laser density raised from 0.5 to 3 W/cm2, temperatures increased from 18 to 30 °C on the surface and 24 to 35 °C at the injected site. Therefore, it noticed that the obtained sub-tissues temperature was higher than that measured surface temperature. Due to the difference in the rate of transfer between the tissue's efficient heat transfer to the air and through the tissue's thermal diffusion, the temperature at the injection site and surface is different. The experimental result revealed the importance of monitoring temperature at injection sites, indicating that the fluorescence thermometer supplied more precise thermal sensing results in the subcutaneous injection site compared with infrared thermometry. Therefore, the dual performances of simultaneous heating with 808nm laser and temperature induction could minimally damage to surrounding normal tissue during the PTT. It means that THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA NPs can be a great integrated thermometer-heater platform with real-time temperature feedback and optical heating capacity.

CONCLUSIONS In summary, we have successfully developed a smart all-in-one nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA by post-synthetically functionalization of a Eu(Ⅲ)-NMOF which can achieve temperature-sensing and optical heating at the same time under NIR light excitation. As an excellent photothermal reagent and bacteriostatic agent, Fe/TA can increase the temperature under 808 nm laser irradiation and had the corresponding ability to kill bacteria. By analyzing the fluorescence intensity ratio and fluorescence lifetime of the Eu-NMOF, it was found that the nanoprobe THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA had excellent real-time temperature sensing property. When power density raised from 0.5 W/cm2 to 3 W/cm2 for 5 minutes, the subcutaneous maximum temperature monitored by fluorescence spectrum was higher than the indication temperature of infrared thermometry. In addition, under the 27

By integrating sensitive, moderate thermometry and efficient photothermal conversion agent into a MOF platform, THA@Eu-NMOF@Fe/TA nanoprobe can be considered as an ideal candidate for real-time temperature response during PTT with high therapeutic accuracy and bacteriostatic activity.
