Photothermal therapy of melanoma tumor using multiwalled carbon nanotubes
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a therapeutic method in which photon energy is transformed into heat rapidly via different operations to extirpate cancer. Nanoparticles, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have exceptional optical absorbance in visible and near infrared spectra. Therefore, they could be a good converter to induce hyperthermia in PTT technique. In our study, for improving the dispersi...
متن کاملDecorating Carbon Nanotubes with Nanoparticles
The unique, well-defined tubular structure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) continues to attract interest. CNTs are fascinating materials for basic scientific research with the potential for several promising applications in catalysis, electronic devices and chemical biology. In recent years, many efforts have led to the development of versatile methods to modify CNTs to obtain derivatives with more ...
متن کاملIn-vitro Study of Photothermal Anticancer Activity of Carboxylated Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes
Background and Objective: Multi-walled Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNTs) as an important element of nanosciences have a remarkable absorption in the region of NIR window (650-900 nm) which can overcome the limitations of deep treatment in photothermal therapy. To disperse MWCNTs in water, it is proposed to attach carboxylated functional group (-COOH) to MWCNTs in order to increase dispersivity in wate...
متن کاملSelective ex-vivo photothermal ablation of human pancreatic cancer with albumin functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes
The process of laser-mediated ablation of cancer cells marked with biofunctionalized carbon nanotubes is frequently called "nanophotothermolysis". We herein present a method of selective nanophotothermolisys of pancreatic cancer (PC) using multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) functionalized with human serum albumin (HSA). With the purpose of testing the therapeutic value of these nanobioconjug...
متن کاملMultiwalled carbon nanotubes with chemically grafted polyetherimides.
Covalent attachment of a non-fluorinated polyetherimide onto the surface of carboxylic acid-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) has been achieved via grafting reactions. This confirms for the first time that the grafting reaction occurs at the nanotube surface when the carboxylic acid-functionalized MWNTs react with the polyetherimide with amine-terminated groups, through both a...
