Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Here, two new fluorescent squaramides bearing quinoline (L1) and naphthalene (L2) as fluorogenic fragments were synthesized and investigated as possible cellular imaging probes. Results showed that L1 is able to pass through the cell membranes of living tumoral (Caco-2) and non-tumoral (293T) human cell lines, while L2 interacts with the cell membranes but does not enter the tested cells. In addition, L1 and L2 were loaded in monoolein-based cubosomes, and also such fluorescent formulations were successfully used for cellular imaging, showing that in vivo application can be conceived for this kind of imaging probes.
