T. Bollhorst, S. Shahabi, K. Wörz, C. Petters, R. Dringen, M. Maas and K. Rezwan. Angewandte Chemie International Edition (2015) 54 , 118–123. doi:10.1002/anie.201408515 Colloidosomes are microcapsules [...] s consisting of nanoparticle shells. These microcarriers can be self-assembled from a wide range of colloidal particles with selective chemical, physical, and morphological properties and show promise [...] fluorescent silica nanoparticles, in a single submicron colloidosome. These tailor-made microcapsules can potentially be used in various biomedical applications, including magnetic hyperthermia, magnetic particle
