Stimuli-responsive hydrogels exhibit structural changes based on changes in local temperature or pH and analytes and are highly valued in fields ranging from controlled drug release to tissue repair and also in microdevices. Hydrogels that respond to external stimuli, such as light or magnetic fields, offer additional advantageswith respect to on-demandand triggered response. With this in mind,...
متن کاملDevelopment of functional gold nanorods for bioimaging and photothermal therapy
Gold nanorods have strong surface plasmon band at near-infrared light region, and are used as a photothermal converter. Since the near-infrared light penetrates into tissues deeply, it has been expected as a contrast agent for near infrared light bioimaging, a photosensitizer for photothermal therapy, and functional device for drug delivery system responding to near-infrared light irradiation. ...
متن کاملPlasmonic caged gold nanorods for near-infrared light controlled drug delivery.
A new near-infrared light-controlled drug delivery system based on caged gold nanorods (CGNRs) is demonstrated. The loading and release process of drug payloads into/from CGNR nanocarriers were systematically investigated. The drug-loaded CGNR constructs could enable combined chemotherapy and photo-thermal effects in killing tumor cells upon light irradiation, therefore, enhance the killing eff...

Pulsed near-infrared laser irradiation induced release of plasmid DNA immobilized on gold nanorods without structural degradation, by selective excitation of longitudinal plasmon oscillation.
متن کامل[Theragnostic approaches using gold nanorods and near infrared light].
Gold nanoparticles have unique optical properties such as surface-plasmon and photothermal effects. Such properties have resulted in gold nanoparticles having several clinical applications. Gold nanorods (which are rod-shaped gold nanoparticles) show a surface plasmon band in the near-infrared region. They have therefore been proposed as contrast agents for bioimaging, or as heating devices for...
