Abstract: Composites formed from a liquid core encapsulated by a plurality of nanoparticles are provided herein. The composites in certain embodiments are droplets comprising a hydrophobic dispersed phase within a hydrophilic continuous phase, thereby forming an emulsion. The composites can be used as contrast agents for imaging, therapeutic agents, and adapted for other uses according to the unique properties of the composites disclosed herein.
